“money is an iron. those creases all get smoothed out by money.”
last (and better) entry here.
long ass unedited 2019 oscar commentary here.
round 4 in imax !!!!!! :,)
after watching this tonight we ate JJAPAGURI AKA RAMDON w WAGYU STEAK at cote nyc and it was the best shit i’ve ever eaten in my life !!!!! fuck !!!!!!!!! they really were onto something !!!!!!!!
glad that i’m now watching this in the post-Parasite world we live in. what a fucking great era to be. esp a day after that literal dumbass trump just randomly trashed this for no actual reason ??????? stupid as fuck!!!!! but joke’s on him!!!!!!! we all just confirmed that he’s not only as racist as we already knew he was, but that he is ALSO illiterate !!!!!! i really cannot imagine him watching anything longer than, like, two mins. so ofc he wouldn’t have understood Parasite w it being 2 hours long, much less not in english.
also, luv this post-Parasite world bc majority if the ppl in my packed theater tonight were watching this for the first time and it is just so fucking magical to see so many ppl make time to watch this film !!!!!! esp after awards season is over !!!!!! truly inspiring. i luv to hear the laughs.
“well i guess she did have one flaw. she was a big eater. ate twice as much as other people.”
i have nothing to say since i pretty much said everything in my last entry, but tonight i did just notice that ^ above quote that dong-ik says as a foreshadowing to the second half of the film so that’s fun!!! also speaking of car scenes i just wanna reiterate that driver yoon is jot as fuck and i will nvr forget him, no matter how limited his screentime was 😔🤟
ok that is all eat/make jjapaguri if u can y’all bc that shit is life changing!!!!! see y’all round 5. maybe.
