    I haven't seen this one Max (I'm not an expert and am not implying that I am), so I can't comment. It's probably designed to influence the 2024 election towards asswipe Biden, but I'll never learn for sure since I am not going to watch it.

    Pure Coincidence.
    I decided to check in and was surprised to see a Tableplay post.
    Was happy to reply.
    Yes, since the VCT site has become a broken record, my interest in reading and making posts here really dropped off. Outside of the Documentary thread you created (I read the Smart Money thread but don't post there much since I very rarely sports bet), and the movie and song reco threads, posting in the other threads isn't much fun. Maybe if there were more casino probability content, it would be more enjoyable to post in the other threads.

    The second civil war movie looks great and I am going to watch it now since the full movie is on youtube - thanks for the reco.

    I went to see it. It really didn't have much of a plot. It was photo journalists travelling to the Capitol like Monet mentioned. There really wasn't any woke stuff, trannies, biracial gay couples or the stuff like that, which seems to be included in all shows lately. If you watch the trailer you pretty much see the movie. It's like 5 dozen trailers linked together to make the movie. I would not recommend it.

    The best part for me was laughing at all the fatasses that got stuck in their recliners at the Palms when the movie ended. The power on the whole 3rd row of seats went out.
    FraudJ's word is worth less than the prop cash in Singer's safe...RIP

    Thanks for the review Max.

    At least this is more of a satire/comedy angle.
    Hollywood is dead and cannot create anything new...

    I watched the movie and thought it was pretty solid. Basically it was prophetic in the way that Idiocracy was prophetic. The Mexican reporter who had an affair with the Senator (Beau Bridges) was told by the director to emulate Barbara Streisand's mannerisms I guess.
    Note to Ben: Ben if you haven't already seen this movie, the actor (Robert Picardo) who played the holographic doctor from Star Trek Voyager is in it.
    Thanks again for the solid reco Monet.
    Regards, TP.

    Movie Reco: Fast Charlie. This movie was James Caan's last movie I think (released posthumously). Pierce Brosnan was the main character and plays the role of a solver/assassin employed by a Mississippi (Biloxi) mob outfit run by James Caan's character. I enjoyed the dark humor. Please disregard this post if you have already seen this movie.

    Hey, wait a minute.

    You say you can't comment because you haven't seen it, then immediately you make a snarky comment which is not only incorrect (see "expert" review by Trump-loving Michael Knowles, above...he set his prejudices aside and seemed to enjoy the flick) but also shows your inability to keep politics from contaminating your view of reality.

    How unfortunate.

    I used the word "probably". I would have expressed an opinion (good or bad as the case may be) as a certainty if I had seen it. I am not going to see this movie so I don't care about Knowles opinion. Similarly, if a sandwich smells like it is rotting, I am not going to taste it and I will state that the sandwich is probably bad. Ultimately, for the purposes of monetary expenditure, along with the decision of how to spend one's time, probabilities must be assigned and implemented as we navigate through our lives.

    That's all well and good: your money, your choices.

    But there is nothing in the movie that is pro-Biden, nor is there anything in it that is pro-Trump: that's part of its beauty: you EXPECT to see a woke political polemic but get a road trip/war movie where ambiguity is the order of the day.

    Very violent scenes...compelling to see hordes of my fellow Americans blown away by other fellow Americans.
