I think his beef was that it felt like she was just voted for as she was a woman. He had no issue with the fact its an experimental 4 hour repetitive piece lol.

Yeah, I mentioned that.

He said he felt it was 'woke' tampering to make sure the list suited the political climate.

As far as I know, he likes the film itself. He just viewed her taking the top spot as a thumb being put on the scale.

good thing schrader is here to make us aware of wokeness gone mad.

Not trying to sound like a bore but I thought the new Indiana Jones was about the best thing I've seen in ages.

Guy Ritchie’s King Arthur: Legend of the Sword. @Corpsey have you seen this?

This is an important document of contemporary English culture.

I told Luke to watch that one. Medieval banter. Scarred David Beckham. Whatever the fuck happens when he's swinging the sword.

Someone called it "dubstep king arthur".

I remember someone calling it "dubstep king arthur".

The editing somehow made me think about Source Direct driving to a provincial beer garden in a big BMW.

There's that bit where they do the snappy geezer back and forth about some deal that went down like they're in Lock, Stock... .

Hardcore Guy Ritchie fans praising the innovative editing while ignoring the wonderous spectacle of Jude Law playing a proto-fascist cockney King.

Those massive elephants at the start that feel like they're from a completely different film.

There's that bit where they do this snappy geezer back and forth about some deal that went down like they're in Lock, Stock... .

There is a lot going on in this film. Late style. Self-parody. Technical innovations. Revising old themes. Cashing in. Having a laugh. Wish fulfilment. Creative despair.

Those massive elephants at the start that feel like they're from a completely different film.

I missed the start. I’m going to have to rewatch it, I think.

 

[version]

It opens with this big battle with colossal elephants and one has a pyramid on its back that a wizard lives in.

Why has nobody thought of casting Victoria Beckham as an evil femme fatale queen in a film like this? She'd be phenomenal.

 

[version]

A film with David and Victoria as the two leads would be... something.

Yeah, but Victoria can act and has charisma. Have you not seen Spiceworld?

 

[version]

I saw bits of it at a girl's house when I was in primary school.

 

[Corpsey]

Does sound good

I've not kept up with Richie at all.
