Rian Johnson, the hack director of The Last Jedi, has a new timeless classic that bashes Trump supporters.

Whelp, fuck Rian Johnson, and fuck his new film.
That's a pity because I like his first 3 films, but sounds like this one will be full of constant injection of hot takes on CURRENT SOCIAL ISSUES that'll age like skim milk in sun. Trump Derangement syndrome claims another one.

It's disappointing because Rian is pretty talented when it comes to directing choreography and visuals. Of course, TDS on the other hand is definitely gonna hurt those two qualities as well.

Exactly. How do you go from Brick and Looper to this weak shit? I don't understand it.

 

[StarkRavingMad]

Rian Johnson is an annoying dipshit. Of course he made an "orange man bad" movie; not shocked in the slightest. For almost two years now, the progressives/intersectionalists have been defending this garden gnome-looking dweeb. I guess it just makes sense for his next film to pander to those kind of people.

So the more reviews I read, the more turned off I am by this upcoming movie. Critics have stated that "it takes TROPES of a mystery movie and subverts them with a wink in its eye."

I am SICK of this postmodern bullshit, where everything needs to be "deconstructed" or "self aware." Just tell me a good story earnestly for once. Good lord.

Rian is pretty talented when it comes to directing choreography and visuals.

Is he, though?

Trump can tweet out that suicide is never the answer and these brainlets will do a flip just to have one more thing to be in opposition towards him on

"Right to Die: Why Suicide Is the Answer to Many Problems" would be published in half the news media within 24 hours, strangely identical despite each one being "written" by a different person.

The other half would insist that he was being a hypocrite, equate his environmental policies to murder-suicide, and claim his very existence causes a thousand alphabetsexuals to die each day.

The 9th Circuit just overturned a nationwide injunction against Trump's asylum policy that was coming out of California. Yes, it's that 9th Circuit and it just ruled in favour of Trump. Again. Nearly half of the 9th Circuit are Trump-appointed judges now (13/29) and that number is still steadily growing, because everyone was ignoring what he was doing to the judiciary.

There were only six of them on the court last year. That number's more than doubled now, and there's still three vacancies left on the court for him to appoint. This is why you never leave court vacancies when you take office.

 

[Vorhtbame]

And this is why McConnell's been pushing court-appointment confirmations. A more constitutionalist judiciary is an insurance policy against wacky left-wing legislation.

Even if the Dems win the next election by the landslide their collective NPD imagines, they'll easily be the most toothless government possible.

Your assuming Democrats would neither pack the appeals or district courts nor impeach any judges Trump appointed which is very possible especially in the former case.

It can be difficult to get rid of a judge. The judiciary tends to have the most protections out of the government branches as a means (attempt) to ensure impartiality.

I know which is why they're far more likely to create additional courts or increase the number of judges that can sit in a federal court. They also could threaten to cut pay to district and appellate court justices at least in the meantime and hope some of them choose to step down which is something they threatened the Supreme Court with when FDR tried to pack it. Trust me, they'll find a way to mitigate the advantages Trump/republicans gained.

 

[Jigglyjogglers]

I think any attempt to radically overhaul the judiciary would see sufficient pushback from the judiciary that it might fall apart. Not necessarily on principle but as a preservation of power. Judges of whatever leaning would understand that with every judge added to their court or every new court added to the country, their own relevance and power diminishes... they lose relevance, even if they're losing that relevance to judges that share their own politics. So any legal challenges to expansion of the judicial branch would probably be upheld by samesaid judicial branch. That's my thought on it, at least.

Packing the courts could work during FDR, partly because most people seemed to want his policies, but also partly because it was harder to dissent.

Today, however, I suspect it would be regarded more as a coup attempt than as an acceptable strategy. The Dems have been banging on for some time about how they expect us to welcome our new asinian overlords, and context is king.

But if they'd like to instigate the collapse of their own power structure, they can go straight on ahead.

It is true the "Democrats" politically had more control than they do now, but there's something they have a monopoly on now that they didn't before which will help them in such an endeavor and that's the media. Who other Republicans in Congress, and your typical conservative talking heads are going to push back on the "Democrats" trying to pack the court? Nobody.

Only thing I have this: I don't think Rian Johnson is a true believer. I think Rian Johnson wants to be a big shot director, and he's parroting the InSocJus talking points to the hilt because that's what he sees a his path to the top. That's the only fucking reason I can think that he agreed to write & direct TLJ, because he wanted to use his connections with the Mouse and running a huge budget & production to make himself a "I say I have an idea, and the studios come to ME" sort of bigshot.

I hope Knives Out tanks, and TLJ ensures he gets stomped back to the C-list.

I just think Rian Johnson is somewhat nihilistic but more in the sense that being so gets him attention.

our new asinian overlords

"Asinian"?

I'm not seeing this an over turning; it looks like they were granted an administrative stay but denied a decision on the emergency stay?

"Asinian"?

Asinine, I would guess, unless @Vorhtbame is making veiled references towards the Chinese.
