What can you expect from Starkiller Johnson?

Well in that case, Best Picture is in the bag.

What the....

Lol this guy. Alright you know the opposite is true given the OP’s self-explanatory name. XD

Mighty top-tier cast on this.

Top-tier cast? They’re just actors. They say lines that were written for them. In this case, written by Rian Johnson.

So all actors are equal? Did you just start watching movies yesterday?

Yes. Around 5pm.

He fucked up Star Wars but Brick will always be an indie classic.

It really does - pure, unadulterated cringe.

I think the second trailer looks pretty good, but all the reports saying that it's basically an anti-conservative diatribe definitely make me wary.

Why did he have to bring politics into it? Supposedly this film was inspired by the stories of Agatha Christie. Why couldn't he have just made a proper Christie-esque story? She was never political.

Did you hear any specific examples how it's anti-conservative?

I've heard Don Johnson's character is a Trump supporter and is made out to be a real asshole.

All the characters are assholes. The politics lasts about 15 seconds and as much pro-Trump things are said as anti- trump. I don't think Trump is mentioned.
