Im likely mixing metaphors, but the general gist is that reading an article is like eating a good cheap meal, whilst seeing a whole youtube video is like being treated to tiny portions at a fancy restaurant

Pre-tty sure the magnificent seven came first. Check your sources again. Kurosawa was super nervous that people would find out about his clone of an american classic, and as we all know, the US comes first

It's in my head, it's done.

Cannot stand the guy. Pretends to be humble as fuck. Shoots videos of himself being humble as fuck. Turns up in movies to unnecessarily defocus the scene.
Yeah the guy can sing and has a comfortable body, so does my dog.

You spent the first few years of your life, catching tail and sniffing butt, winning through life on loveable personality alone, and becoming a loyal and devoted partner, spending your sunset years curled up on a nice seat, watching the kids do their thing and getting occasional head pats from strangers for a life well lived and job well done.

It sounds a lot like Limitless

oh definitely no contest, just not sure why anyone is comparing a shiny pearl with a literal turd if there's no reason to place them in the same room.

I can't shake off the Nolan when I see Nolan films. I see the same tired tropes of affluent people grandstanding each other against the stakes of the world, to the absolute non-consent of anyone in it. Ample nepotism in the sense that the "greatness" is inherited, and then tacking on over-the-top artistic prose with the intent of swaying the audience into believing that these are respectable people. All his characters scream of narcissism.

And as always: Eat a dick, Murphy. You're an adult now, you know exactly why your dad had to leave, and you still choose to hate him? Jesus, kid.

The Magnificent Seven is way better, and predates it by 80 or 90 years. Rumour has it that John Sturges was so impressed by the Seven Samurai, that he presented Kurosawa with a Colt Single Action Army Revolver and said "You have made a great movie, but it's my movie, ya dig."

(you may crucify me now.)
