    American Fiction, i was a bit slow to the party on this one, loved it, great to see Jefffey Wright nail the lead role on his first big such film, kudos, best comedy I've seen in a good long while although it's not a genre of film I watch too often any more

     

    decent film that provided a few chuckles. Jeffery Wright is indeed a good actor but I enjoyed the affable but unscrupulous literary agent the most. Thought the white characters were completely broad and unserious, which I took to be a sort of not-so-subtle inversion of cinema's long racist history of black roles being dehumanized and existing as negative stereotypes (or the "magical negro" ofc) That is a fine directorial decision, but it sort of ruined the otherwise sensitive and nuanced feel of the film and unintentionally less funny.

     

    Keith David remains a king, my other thought.

  2. thanks alco. feel absolutely no need to see this. wasn't going to do it before but now reading your post i can certify this as a 0% rotten on d-lo tomatoes.

    Hey you guys remember the beginning of Aphex's "Milkman" and how someone used their Little Orphan Annie decoder ring to clear it up? Like: "Shit, I'd better not press too hard with my fucking 2 inch hard cock" and all that filth? Well if you listen behind all the war shit, I'm pretty sure the same thing is going on in this track. It wouldn't be as clear/isolated in this case but someone should decode it to make sure it's not "Mein Kampf" on audiobook or something. 

    that would be "funny"

  5. yeah ftr Uwe is quite literally a musical genius so this tweet took me a little off guard I'll be honest lol.

    not that he shouldn't be critical of current movements in media and culture more broadly but it did seem to reference or allude to some internet edgelord shit which seemed a bit beneath someone as creative as he is.
