  1. This article is trying to get a reaction from readers and I’m not giving it to them. Hindsight is 20/20 and I’m sure there’s more context to what happened at the time and I’m not gonna read that article to find out 

  2. Fight Club is sick only in its symbolic preamble to 9/11 or rather, psyching young American males up to fight (overseas). Not the only media to do so in this time period.

    Rupert Murdoch thinking Fight Club is sick tells you everything you need to know about the billionaire class.

    Your daily reminder of how stupid C-Suite people are and that we should all be fucking irate they make 400x, 450x or more the median wage.

    I thought both movies were excellent and they represent the types of movie that people actually go to the cinema for vs the unoriginal, generic sequel rubbish that we mostly get now

  6. I remember listening to an interview with Brad Pitt where he talked about getting stoned with Edward Norton and going to the Venice film festival. Apparently the audience hated it and they laughed their asses off while the movie was booed

  7. Leave it to Murdoch to be outraged at getting back at the rich and powerful corporations that keep people as debt slaves. Not at all surprised by Murdoch’s going for the sleaze and trashy to win over audiences. That is still his go-to strategy with his media empire.
