So rumor has it Kelis and Bill Murray are dating, which good for them, but all I can think is

"MY MILKSHAKE BRINGS ALL THE BOOMERS TO THE YARD"

I mean I found out Al Pacino is expecting a child this year with his girlfriend. So yeah, push THAT boat out.

On the one hand, this refrain is getting tiresome as shit. On the other, at least with John Wick, Oliver Stone is one of the few people in Hollywood who I think is entitled to call it out on the amount of fairly weightless killing (and by no means is John Wick the only offender there; "How you doing, entirety of the superhero genre!") since he's been in the actual shit of war.

I never knew -
U.S. Army. In April 1967, Stone enlisted in the United States Army and requested combat duty in Vietnam. From September 27, 1967, to February 23, 1968, he served in Vietnam with 2nd Platoon, B Company, 3rd Battalion, 22nd Infantry Regiment, 25th Infantry Division and was twice wounded in action.

Can easily see how that might grind his gears since the Wick series is all about glorifying violence and gun fetish. Though like you said, “that’s Hollywood”, so it still has a right to exist and entertain regardless of intent.

Great rendetion, but nothing tops the Abridged Cell version.

My question is: Why start now, Oliver? Why single out John Wick and the Super Hero genre? Where the fuck were you during the 80s, 90s, and early 2000s? You're morals don't mean shit, if you pick on the popular ones and nothing else. I respect as a film maker, but all y'all old guys need to fuck off with mindless crying.
