@FredipusRex @jpodhoretz Carlito’s Way is a superior film in every aspect.
English

I've never quite understood the reverence for The Godfather.
The pacing drags in the first half, Michael's Italy trip feels like a bizarre inserted travelogue whose only job is to flip his character switch, and Brando’s backyard death scene is interminable
Give me the French Connection any day.

There is only one answer here that matters: The Godfather. The greatest work of the cinema, period, but made from a fun pulpy novel.

Trying to think of books where the film adaptation is considered vastly superior in quality. An odd one would probably be The Bridges of Madison County which consistently is picked as one of Clint's best directed films but the novel is usually considered mediocre at best

@staticbluebat My Better than the book movies:
Psycho
Jaws
Fight Club
Ben Buttons
Perfume
Ready Player 1
The Revenant
Bullet Train
(Idk if Edge of Tomorrow counts)

There has never been a truly great movie made from a truly great novel.

@PodSaveAmerica Fuck hasan. He is an ill-liberal tankie. I swear you guys just hear the clips and think that is him. Check out the beef with H3 and hasan for a beginners guide to the idiocy of trying to court a tankie.

I think a lot of people don't understand the fascination much of the American right has with Japan. It's not so much that we are obsessed with Japanese culture, as fun and interesting as it is. It's simply because it's like looking into the kind of country we could have had.
A homogenous nation with shared culture and values. Low violent crime, clean streets, great food. It's everything we want. Visiting Japan is like window shopping in stores we can't afford. You go there and see that our dreams are actually entirely feasible, but we failed to allow ourselves to happen. You can walk down the street in a city and not worry about a 75 IQ gang banger killing you. You don't need to worry non stop about getting mugged by someone who is barely functional enough to form a coherent sentence.
You can walk down the street and not see trash everywhere. Everything doesn't stink of weed. Everyone isn't constantly loud and angry.
It's like a mirror with a filter on it. It shows us what life could be.
To the people of Japan, I can't stress this enough, you must protect your nation and never let it change. Do not allow it to be overtaken by foreigners. Do not slip. You will end up destroyed like us.

Spoke with President Trump. He told me the conflict should be over in days, not weeks but if no deal is made he’s blowing up the whole country with “very little” off the table.
"If happens, it happens. And if it doesn't, we're blowing up the whole country,” he said.
I asked if there’s anything off limits.
“Very little,” he said.

@ksorbs Let’s call a spade a spade.
It’s because we were a white nation back then and now we aren’t.
Period.
End of story.
Anyone who claims otherwise is either a fool or simply wants to be intellectually dishonest.

@BrandonStraka @mtgreenee @laurenboebert welp trump said she’s bad so she’s bad. it’s not that hard.
English

WHEN DID WE BECOME THE LEFT?
“When I was going through my hell, only two elected members of congress took my phone call- @mtgreenee and @laurenboebert.
MTG visited J6ers in prison, was the only congressperson to sponsor the Matthew Perna Bill- named after the J6er who committed suicide, and she prayed with me while the media took pictures of us and mocked us.
Now a directive has gone out that she’s a traitor- and if you want to be in the in crowd, you must hate her, too.
When did we become tribal, mean, and hive-minded?”

@TreyYingst Unfortunately the MSM has fallen so low I can't believe anything unless I hear it from the Presidents lips.
