DEADPOOL is, in my opinion, not half-bad. ⭐️⭐️⭐️
I'll admit this one benefits from pretty low expectations on my part. It's not clever, but it does the pose it does as well as such a thing can be done.

Ryan Reynolds was born to the part, which I mean as both a compliment and an insult.
Anyway I enjoyed it mostly and I laughed a few times and I really liked seeing a crazy pairing like Colossus and Negasonic Teenage Warhead and I might someday watch the sequel and I never will feel compelled to see it again. So there you go.
Also I half-watched this movie 4 years ago without sound from a nearby airplane seat and I pretty much followed it, so that's what I can tell you about the plot.

Strong endorsement for Sally Yates.
Let's do lots of things that the people who are literally destroying this country don't like.

As many as we can.
Appoint her by executive order in the break, then.

Or appoint her as "acting" AG indefinitely. We already know that's allowed.

Enough cowtowing to this negation politics. We can't let the Senate blockade the functioning of government.

The difference between compromise and concession is one I wish more people grasped.
Compromise is an agreement between two or more entities who are working on the same goal but disagree on how to achieve it.

Concessions are a sometimes-necessary part of a strategy involving contention against one or more entities who are working for a totally different goal.
Compromise isn't how you achieve unity. It is the fruit of unity.

Trying to achieve unity through compromise isn't just a bad idea. It's impossible.

Making unity your end goal will only result in full concession of any other goal—which those w/different goals will appreciate.

Just spotted JFK Jr in my air ducts. Image
Presume that’s where John-John has been hiding since faking his death.

Yesterday was the deadliest in U.S. history, a situation created by Republican leadership, who continue to actively fight against any remedy, while our media covers the president's unlawful attempts to overturn an election as a "gambit"

I see the cause of our "political divide."
The idea astonishes, that there still exist opinion pieces suggesting those directly responsible for a rolling series of the deadliest days in U.S. history should face no consequence. The belief that a few people matter and the rest do not has never been more nakedly exposed.
Killing people because you want them dead is divisive.
Abandoning them to a virus when you could save them is divisive.
Making them die of cancer when you could give treatment is divisive.
Making them starve when you have food is divisive.

Yelling at the people doing it is not.

The lesson of Trump is what the lesson of Reagan and both Bushes should have been: You can do anything you can get away with.

Anything Trump doesn't face criminal charges for is something presidents can do—which is why prosecution is crucial. washingtonpost.com/opinions/no-tr…
It's meaningless to say presidents "can't" if when they do the thing they "can't" do there exist no consequences.

As of right now, Trump has not found anything that presidents "can't" do.

It is vital that we start establishing a list of such things—a long list, preferably.
In my opinion, we should prosecute presidents retroactively, going back to Nixon at least.

Let's charge them with crimes and put their convictions on the books.

Let's start investigations into Cheney/Rumsfeld.

The list of things you can't do is an empty sheet. Let's fill it.

VICE is, in my opinion, not half-bad. ⭐️⭐️⭐️
The good includes Bale's performance; actor-stunt weight gain mimicry aside, it's an impressive look at a truly banal evil.

The bad includes the McCay bag of meta-tricks, most of which worked well in The Big Short but which almost all seem ill-considered here, especially ...
... the far too expository, never-needed voiceover, which never justifies itself, even once the nature of its source is finally revealed.

But good to have a reminder of what soulless monsters every Bush-era crony has always been, and how destructive 2000-08 was.
