    i aint celebrating something that brings someone long-term mental and possibly physical damage for income just like how i wont celebrate any other abusive job for it being abusive. ill celebrate nurses and coal miners because they are likely to unionize and elevate class consciousness among each other, there wont be a union for s***workers

    also im not waving no flag for s***workers because thats insano kind of optics for me as someone not doing it. yeah girl keep undermining any of your career opportunities and privacy past 35 years old for some online perverts pleasure

    dude itt talking about 'we celebrate hustle culture we should celebrate s***work' no we dont and no we shouldnt

    Combat sports can just be as bad with CTE and gruesome, long-term injuries, and I wish that MMA fighters had more power to unionize as well.

    This is why decriminalization that doesn't go hand-in-hand with extensive efforts of de-stigmatization is ultimately ineffective, but given how entrenched various cultures are in religious/traditional values, it'll always be a non-starter for a good chunk of people.

    Again, folks can feel how they feel, but if Sean is really out here mining such tales from this community and doesn't feel as strongly about their work being considered real work, then that's some sinister shyt

    My only complaint about this was that I didn’t get enough of a reason why she was ride or die over Ivan (outside of the money of course). I guess if the story took place longer than a span of 2 weeks and less montages of partying-> f***ing-> video games then id by it

    But then again maybe thats all it took

    Soon as he took off I would of called it quits lol

    the whole time I’m thinking she’s still viewing him as another trick and wanting the bag up until that plane ride back to Vegas and I’m like oh you actually like the little nigga

    But then again maybe the mom saying she’d f*** her over if she tries to get money out of him made her finally give up on the act idk

    On 2nd watch I still don’t get why Ani didn’t try and get half. I don’t get how the mom’s threat worked “your house and car will be gone. I will destroy you and your family”…..lmao who tf is she to even be able to do s***?

    I took it as she’d bleed Anora dry in court. Probably has lawyers that could keep the trial going forever until the court fees are too much for Anora

    I have a good group of characters I’ve been building, inspired by real life people and have a million directions for the story lol.

    I’m stuck between wanting to do a high anxiety, let’s say uncut gems type ticking time bomb.

    Or wanting to do a more slice of life, hangout, ala first half of Jackie Brown type. Or even Thin Red Line which is on my reference list for this, so it’s funny you mention Malik haha

    My bad for spamming I’m just catching up on the thread after finally seeing this but wanted to chime in and say you could make 2 separate screenplays out of this. Just change the names of the characters even if they are essentially the same characters

    It's a good film but my least fav in Baker's filmography. I wish it was a bit shorter length wise... The first half starts dragging a bit after a while. End was strong.

    This is where I’m at with it

    I was thinking this to be honest, especially with changing the names.

    Cus I mean you like at Jules in Pulp and Ordell in Jackie Brown….they have a lot of similarities just Jules has a moment of clarity near the end

  • Dec 27, 2024

    Movie is hilarious one of the funniest of the year. Still think we should’ve got to the marriage quicker they could’ve chopped off at least 30 minutes from the first half, not have missed much, and movie would flow better imo. I’m a fan of Baker’s day in the life of a crazy world style so I pretty much knew not to expect any huge character development from any of the characters lol. Doesn’t detract from my enjoyment but I can see why some wouldn’t like that if they had certain expectations going in.

    I got a lot of Zola vibes from this and I also felt Igor was similar to the Willem Dafoe character in Florida Project being the only empathetic voice of reason.

    True and didn’t you have an article that said True Romance original script was huge and he was able to make like 3 movies from it? I’m sure that happens often where a filmmaker has an idea that can go separate ways but instead of cramming it all into one they’re able to create multiple so they can spend more time on the differing themes

    Yeah so True Romance at one point had elements of Natural born killers, pulp fiction and reservoir dogs in it.

    I can’t 100% remember if RD was also part of True Romance cus I also remember reading RD was originally a chapter in Pulp Fiction back when it was gonna be made by 3-4 other directors.

    Ima have to re read that article but yeah I think QT wrote a gang of s*** for True Romance, and the main character was writing a screenplay which turned out to be Natural born killers. It also had side stories that later became Pulp Fiction. And then when he went to make pulp fiction with some other directors, his chapter was gonna be RD and then when the project became all his, he made RD its own movie and took the side stories from True Romance and fleshed that out into Pulp Fiction
