The cashier was real funny, he said, “I’m sorry sir, but that’s sold out.” I laughed and replied, “Yeah right.”

*Coppola’s not wrong: America is an empire on the verge of collapse and it will crumble sooner than later. His heart’s in the right place for sure. Yet that doesn’t stop him from making a garish af ersatz looking movie with questionable decisions (aesthetic and otherwise) throughout. And as usual Adam Driver is about as interesting as watching paint dry. Shia LeBuff is unintentionally funny just from how utterly stupid he looks. This movie’s a hot mess though and I often thought of that scene from A Confederacy of Dunces when Ignatius J. Reilly’s yelling at the movie screen, “What is this abomination before me!?” 💩🎥

after reading Lord of the Flies I'm even more mad at the people who compare Ruprecht to Ignatius Reilly......like if you want an example from classic literature there is a much better example RIGHT THERE
