Film Critic Ted Cruz Outraged By ‘Out of Touch’ Hollywood’s Top Movies List
It means the preferences of stupid people weren't represented. Anytime they say real Americans or patriots or whatever, just substitute in stupid people and suddenly it makes a lot more sense.
You've got to remember that these are just simple farmers. These are people of the land. The common clay of the new West. You know... morons.
Mongo just pawn in game of life.
The list in question: #30 - Lost In Translation #29 - Arrival #28 - The Dark Knight #27 - Adaptation #26 - Anatomy of a Fall #25 - Phantom Thread #24 - Her #23 - Boyhood #22 - The Grand Budapest Hotel #21 - The Royal Tenenbaums #20 - Wolf of Wall Street #19 - Zodiac #18 - Y tu mamá también #17 - Brokeback Mountain #16 - Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon #15 - City of God #14 - Inglorious Bastards #13 - Children of Men #12 - The Zone of Interest #11 - Mad Max: Fury Road #10 - The Social Network #9 - Spirited Away #8 - Get Out #7 - Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind #6 - No Country for Old Men #5 - Moonlight #4 - In the Mood for Love #3 - There Will Be Blood #2 - Mulholland Drive #1 - Parasite Pretty reasonable honestly.
Thank you for the list.
Is he mad the list isn't all "American" actors?
Probably hated the ending of Inglorious Bastards.
Much like my racist family members removed endlessly about Black Panther despite never watching any Marvel movies ever, I guarantee he saw "Get Out" in the top 10 and is livid that a movie with a largely black cast could be popular and well-liked.
Am I the only one that thought Boyhood was overrated? Like the meta of the movie is unique and impressive, for sure. It's an incredible idea to film a movie following the development of a kid into adulthood in real time, and the perseverance to make it is laudable. But... I found the movie that resulted felt like... well like someone who had an idea for a movie 11 years ago and kept changing the plan along the way without being able to change what's already filmed. It felt messy and disjointed. Not like it is terrible, but I have no interest in watching it ever again. Certainly not in my to 30 movies of all time.
Nah, you're not alone. It was fine.
Overrated in the sense that it's not a top 30 movie? Yeah, I can definitely pick at least 50 films that I think are better. It was definitely a good film, tho. Been a long time so I don't remember specifics, but I don't remember it feeling like multiple films stitched together or anything. And even if it did, it could be argued that it's an artistic decision? Since it shows different times in their lives. Hell, for most people Sunday 29th vs Monday 30th can make two vastly different movies.
Then again, I'm not that picky about movies nor am I much of a critic so I don't really know what I'm talking about xD
So its literally a list of movies, what's wrong with it?
I'm really happy to see a lot of the films on that list. I'm thrilled that Her and Adaptation made the cut. Eternal sunshine is in the top 10, right where it belongs. I'm pleasantly surprised that children of men made the cut, (I liked it a lot, but I didn't think it was groundbreaking or anything). Also great to see the dark knight made the list, it's easy to lump all superhero films together, but it really wasn't just another superhero film.
I'm also not at all surprised to see There Will Be Blood and No Country for Old Men in the top ten. But I have to be honest, I know they're critically acclaimed and much loved, but I just didn't like either of them. They were both grim and gritty, and that's part of the point I guess, but it made the films so unpleasant to watch. And with no country for old men, I truly never understood what the film was trying to say.
No Country is a film (novel) about how personal gain has supplanted spiritual morality as the driving force behind our greater human culture.
Josh Brolin embarks on this whole crusade just to secure his bag of money. Woody Harrelson is a self-described “day trader” while he moonlights as a hitman. Javier Bardem kills them both, but he’s terrified of Tommy Lee Jones because he’s just a sheriff who is simply committed to upholding the law as he sees it. As misguided as their respective motivations are (Anton is a psychopath with very black-and-white morals) they are the only two characters who are not driven by material gain. That’s what makes them both so formidable, in the context of the film.
I’ve rewatched this movie so many times, and this to me is the overarching theme of the story.
That list is tight 🔥
Is it me or are these dailybeast headlines cringey AF? If you scroll down a little and get a list of other articles, quite literally every headline is slammed! outraged! rips! blasting!
Can we please stop with these clickbatey headlines?
No, Cruz is not outraged, he's removed and moaning like the little turd that he is, please stop the clickbait
What a terrible website. I couldn't even read it without it loading ads and moving my screen everywhere
They started pushing a subscription model a few years ago. I quit going there.
Sorry Rafaelito. Not only do Christian movies suck, they do less box office than a Tommy Wiseau picture.
One of the very few things that virtually all federal politicians - Democrats and Republicans alike - agree on is that Ted Cruz is an asshole.
Really.
Most likely just a precursor.
Next thing out of his mouth will be we need movies with “good (insert some asshat right wing term) values”. Just look up nazism and cinema.
If so, glad I posted now.
"It's not me that's out of touch, no it is everyone else in Hollywood that's out of touch. Everyone everywhere outside of Hollywierd is a cock sucking cunt of a coward just like me but I'm the king of the cock sucking cunt cowards. King Ted Cruz the cock suckingest cunt of a caward that ever walked the earth. Hollywood is just out of touch." - Ted "I used my kids as an excuse for running away like a coward in 21" Cruz
Maybe he's mad there are no Star Wars movies on the list. I hear he is a big Jar Jar fan.
Ok, I had to check and recheck that I wasn't eating an onion after I read the title. What a world!!
"Liar Liar" and "Dumb and Dumber" are Rafael's favorite true life movies.
And don't we all feel better informed after reading that?
Well, that's one advantage to coming here first. Sometimes the original article isn't worth the time. :-)
so i was expecting to see a bunch of Marvel movies , which are indeed complete trash ,, but this is a fine list
