>Citation needed

Its easily available.

>DAE narcissistic billionaires bad?

Specific ones with specific traits.

>DAE dumb conservatives bad?

I explained this already, various groups were criticized but hilariously smooth brain ben sharpiro types failed to see this.

>You are saying this like nominations are the end all be all testament of a film's quality; they aren't

Bad reading comprehension on your part yet again.

An indicator of a films quality involves multiple things, yes nominations, but also critical praise and audience reactions. Rians recent work did well in all these regards.

>I'm convinced you are just making shit up at this point

Easily available.

>Knives out had an entire segment devoted to a 15-something year old being called a creepy alt-right incel

Yeah, something like a grand total of 25 seconds, while also criticizing other groups like holier than thou liberals.

>Not to mention the peak cringe cameos like Serena's training program

That was good.

>(Grant's cameo was the only time I laughed during the film, so there's that)

You laughed at someone opening the door?

>instead he chose the surface level message 'billionaires are dumb'

Bit them dim in many ways as shown recently in the real world as well being unoriginal and succeeding through circumstance.

>I have to give it to Rian, he truly made a film that is impossible to criticise.

You can, but here it aint going well.

>He shat on the lowest hanging fruit.

Previously you said conservatives in this regard, i corrected you. In onion its fluke billionaires...and their naïve sycophants.

> Europe and they fell asleep half way through

Some people have short attention spans, god bless them.

> The film doesn't resonate outside of American politics.

Except it was a critical and audience wise hit outside the US.

>Watch it and you will immediately notice the stark contrast in the script quality.

eh, thought it was just pretty good, my feelings really on it.

>Avatar 2 was also highly anticipated and it is not peak storytelling either

Except, unlike Avatar, both Knives Out films, again, received high praise for their screenplays.

>It's 'anticipated' because Craig's Blanc is hilarious, that's it

Which is due to writing, which Craig himself praised. ( Im feeling he wasnt that happy with his Bond run)

>I can give you pointers to dozens of other Oscar/Golden Globes/whatever baits if you want

lol

Had nothing to do with their attention spans, but good job on a snarky comment that completely missed the point, I guess

You didn't correct jack mate. He shits on the lowest hanging fruit, doesn't matter if it's conservatives, billionaires, Andrew Tate streamers or 'crazy libruls'. They are ALL low hanging fruit.

And yes I laughed during Grant's cameo, because he is actually funny and talented actor, unlike the script. It is no coincidence that the best parts were Hawke's and Grant's performances: they had limited screentime and didn't get completely sucked into Johnson's lazy writing schticks

Kathryn Hahn is one of the best comedic actresses working today and he gave her absolutely nothing to play with, which is a damn shame. The film is UNfunny. Also a bad mystery film. If not for the cast list, this film would fall into Netflix fodder bin, guaranteed

Not as unanimous praise as you think.

We can keep going in circles here, like you constantly deflecting 'easily available info' and never actually providing any evidence of your claims, because clearly you have no idea what the concept 'burden of proof' means

If you liked Glass Onion, be my guest, I truly don't give a shit you and thousands of others are happy to settle for appallingly mediocre entertainment just because the script validates your viewpoints. There are people that have the bar set a bit higher than that.

No, because you made it up.

I did.

Im glad him opening a door tickled your funny bone, how your imaginary family didnt wake up from you chuckling is a mystery.

The talk of the town.

Screenplay.

>Not as unanimous praise as you think.

Never said it was 100% (few films are), but it was a critical success.

> 'easily available info'

Google.

>for appallingly mediocre entertainment

Critically acclaimed.

>There are people that have the bar set a bit higher than that.

Ben Shapiro, lol.

Yeah, I made it up for sure. I need to make up a basic personal story on Reddit rofl. Maybe your detective skills are so shite because you watch shite detective films

>You didn't correct jack mate

Nope

>Im glad him opening a door tickled your funny bone, how your imaginary family didnt wake up from you chuckling is a mystery.

Yikes dude, yikes

>Screenplay.

Was bad, yes

>Not as unanimous praise as you think.

Because of the cast and the politics

> 'easily available info'

>Google.

Still no sources on your claims. I'm not gonna do the work for you if you keep making shit up

>There are people that have the bar set a bit higher than that.

>Ben Shapiro, lol.

It's always projection. You might be on the other side of the barricade, but your mental capacity is similar to his. And I despise Shapiro

Indeed.

Yes.

>Yikes dude, yikes

Chuckling at door openings, only if your lethargic family was awake for this scene and others.

>Was bad, yes

Good and critically well received by audiences and critics.

>Because of the cast and the politics

Critics were quite clear that the Screenplays were the main strength.

>and the politics

When you thought he was being overly mean to conservatives.

Wild.

>It's always projection.

What projection exactly?

Yes dude, it was just bored Hugh Grant casually opening the door with a straight face. Not like there was an entire context, his nanny clothes and delivery. For someone who loves sniffing Rian's farts you sure missed the only passable comedic moment in the film

>Good and critically well received by audiences and critics.

Slightly above average reception, majority agreed it was noticeably worse than Knives Out. You can check out the Metacritic link again, because you have no sources for anything

>Critics were quite clear that the Screenplays were the main strength.

Nope again, and until you provide any resemblance of factual proof, you can keep living in a fantasy

>and the politics

>When you thought he was being overly mean to conservatives.

Your reading comprehension is appallingly bad. Read my comments properly or fuck off already

Actually nevermind, stop replying to me altogether, that would be much appreciated

>It's always projection.

>What projection exactly

Google it.
