I agree. Releasing on HBOMax was a bad idea. They cannibalized their audience.
I think all of those premonitions of her just looking into the camera didn't do her any favors. I would have liked to see those scenes more blurry, distorted, dark, and not just an obvious movie cut.
I did not particularly enjoy the Lynch version. I did, however, enjoy the Sci Fi channel version - even with obvious budget limitations and a few wooden actors. Dune (2021) is fine so far, but the actors sometimes look like they are just going through the motions.
When I read the books, I don't recall thinking everyone was so stale and stoic other than the mentats.
The United States went into Iraq for oil. If you don't believe so, you are naive and misinformed.
It was lie after lie after lie. Bush, and his administration, lied about WMD, lied about yellow cake uranium from Africa, lied about Iraq links to Al-Qaeda, and covered for the many Saudi connections to 9/11. They thought they could use WMD as a pretext for invasion because the United States and its NATO allies had supplied Iraq with WMD during the Iran-Iraq war. It was all a big disinformation campaign, and quoting the NY Times, who were fed and printed that propaganda, is not credible as a source.
"Bush lied, and people died."
Ari Fleisher is a political spin master and an outright liar to the press. Is he your trusted source?
The intel was that Iraq may still have some of the WMD weapons that the United States and NATO countries sold him during the Iran-Iraq war. In any case, that was a red herring. They didn't go to war for WMD; they went to war for oil.
This government lied about WMD, lied about yellow cake uranium from Africa, lied about Iraq links to Al-Qaeda, and covered for the many Saudi connections to 9/11. "Bush lied, and people died" is no myth.
And those Neoliberals in the Democratic Party all wanted the war too, so they were no better.
I know this is an old post, but I just saw the film.
I thought Gomez did a good job with her character. I took a bus trip across country when I was in high school, and I sat next to a girl who was just like her. It was pretty spot on in my opinion.
It isn't like she was given a prime leading role with a ton of depth to act with.
He did not play Hitler. He played an imaginary friend of a little boy who idolized Hitler.
This was how the young boy imagined Hitler. It was almost a caricature of him.
LOL! I get it.
Yeah, it was Yvonne Strahovski all along.
She's been in a lot of movies and shows lately.
The Kominsky Method without Arkin was a shell of its former self.
Let me guess, you live in a small town in Kansas.
