[jiabeewrites]

so this is what i've gathered from the memes and tumblr posts:

(please do not take this as 100% accurate. it's probably only like 78% accurate)

TITANIC II:

a few billionaires + a 19 year old + one other person(?) went into a "submarine" that wasn't actually a submarine

it was controlled by a VIDEO GAME CONTROLLER

and they were supposed to explore the titanic

and the submarine thingie didn't actually work and they KNEW THAT before getting on

and it imploded

and they all died

the only person anyone has sympathy for is the 19 year old bc he didn't wanna go on but wanted to make his dad happy

also celine dion is trending lmao

and fanfic is being written for the submarine (im slightly concerned)

oh and the company who made the submarine is called oceangate

this link. that's it, that's the addition.

oh yeah and @hkayakh said that a documentary is being made about this???

RUSSIA:

there's a coup

and there's basically a civil war

and the person in charge of the coup said that he's trying to topple russia's military leaders

and ukraine just took back some of their land

also the troops stopped for coffee before fighting

important addition by @chimp-prolly-not-typing-hamlet: the rogue battalion that rebelled against Putin is a private paramilitary organization called Wagner’s Group which has been linked to far-right extremism and neo-nazism

GREECE:

the greek coast guard capsized a boat full of hundreds of migrants, killing 80 with over 500 people still counted as missing, and the eu won't even investigate (according to @socialist-microwave-laser, please go check this post for more info)

so yeah fuck capitalism actually

THE STOCK MARKET???:

logitech is NOT suing oceangate, that was a fake post

EXTRA SHIT:

andrew tate is being charged for rape and human trafficking

and apparently elon musk challenged mark zuckerberg to a jiu jitsu cage fight

and andrew tate offered to coach elon musk

the season finale of helluva boss came out!!! (s1e8)

the season finale of helluva boss is coming out only right now because of some legal issues that vivsiepop + spindlehorse had. i think it had something to do with working with kesha and her label

FNAF TRAILER JUST DROPPED

yeah the world just decided to speedrun history today

(pls tell me if there's anything to add to this in the replies!!!)

“DUMB MONEY”

“Dumb Money” is based on a true story, but unless you regularly watch CNN or dabble on the stock market with a smart phone app you’ve probably never heard of it.

The events of the story are fairly recent (2019 to mid 2021). Keith Gill (Paul Dano) shared his theories about the stock market on Reddit. He thought the GameStop stock (retail video game stores) was undervalued because deep pocket investors and investment companies were betting against it. Gill’s enthusiasm about GameStop motivated a legion of fans to buy shares in the company. This caused “yadda yadda yadda”. (I can already see your eyes glaze over as you read this.)

And that’s the problem with “Dumb Money” - lots of talk about the stock market and lots of characters; it’s gets boring. Despite this Paul Dano, with his round face and soft marshmallow body, is likable in his Everyman role. Dano is good in everything I’ve seen him in, from “Little Miss Sunshine” to his turn as a serial killer villain in “The Batman”.

The “Dumb Money” has lots of villains as well - institutional investors played by Seth Rogan, Vincent D'Onofrio, and an especially slimy Sebastian Stan. Plus Dane Dehaan as an officious store manager. It’s fun seeing them shit their pants and lose hundreds of millions of dollars in a single day. (But in reality they were already so rich, it probably didn’t really impact them.)

But truthfully, my biggest complaint about the movie is a song played repeatedly throughout the film - “Pussy, Money, Weed” by Lil Wayne. Keith Dill’s user name on YouTube (and the app formerly know as Twitter) was Roaring Kitty. Someone thought it was be a good idea to use Lil Wayne’s tune as Gill’s theme song. I have never heard the word “pussy” said so many time in less that 2 hours. I never want to hear the word “pussy” again in my life!

Rather than invest $12 of your hard earn cash on a ticket for “Dumb Money”, I recommend skipping it and rewatching your favorite Paul Dano from your streaming library.

Dumb Money

Director: Craig Gillespie

Starring: Paul Dano, Pete Davidson, Vincent D'Onofrio, America Ferrera, Nick Offerman, Anthony Ramos, Sebastian Stan, Shailene Woodley, and Seth Rogen (+ bonus Dane DeHaan with a rattail)

Release Date: September 29, 2023

My Rating: 5/10

My Review (NO SPOILERS):

I mean...it got the job done? The preview led me to believe this would be a funnier and more dramatic movie than it actually was. Felt like it just did the minimum...everything the movie would *almost* get there, and I'd think they're going to break the barrier and go a bit deeper, it would cut away. Still, it told a story about the STOCK MARKET (ew) in a way that wasn't boring. It was no Wolf of Wall Street, but it kept my interest so I'll give it that.

It explained the whole Game Stop situation in a way that mostly made sense to someone who knows very little about the stock market and the situation going on. It explained why it was bad for the rich guys and good for the rich guys. I didn't leave the movie completely understanding the stock market, or even the Game Stop incident entirely, but I could at least explain to someone else in very basic terms what it was about. I think.

It was a fun enough movie. I don't know if I'd recommend that you go out and see it in theaters or even rent it, but it'd be an interesting enough movie to watch if it's ever streaming for free somewhere.

Dumb Money (2023) Review

Does anyone else think that Seth Rogen looks like a cuddlier version of David Boreanaz? Angel's stoner brother? No? Anyone? Alright then, just me as always.

Plot: Everyday people flip the script on Wall Street and get rich by turning GameStop into one of the world's hottest companies. In the middle of everything is Keith Gill, a regular guy who starts it all by sinking his life savings into the stock. When his social media posts start blowing up, so does his life and the lives of everyone following him. As a stock tip becomes a movement, everyone gets wealthy -- until the billionaires fight back and both sides find their worlds turned upside down.

Looking back at the COVID pandemic, now it seems so strange that that time even happened. A time of dread and uncertainty, now almost feels like a 2-year blip, where things were off but then all of a sudden we have returned to normal. Doesn't seem real. Think of Thanos snapping his fingers and dusting half the world's population away for 5 years and then they all come back and it's back to regular hijinks. Regardless, the pandemic lockdowns were crappy, but one of the few glimmers of hope and goodness came from that whole GameStop stock event when a bunch of Redditors and online geeks managed to take down multiple Wall Street hedge funds that were originally gaining money from other's people's losses. Reading about it on the news was absolutely mad, and naturally, now we have a movie about it.

If you're looking for a factual detailed behind-the-scenes depiction of what occurred, and also if you're seeking out a lesson in finance, Dumb Money isn't that type of movie. I'm sure there is a Netflix documentary out there that delves deeper into the ins and outs of it all, as for this movie, this is very much a classic David vs. Goliath tale of regular people sticking it to the man. The combination of winning personalities and a mind-blowing reality makes for a very entertaining film, if not profound, yet this is a prime example of a crowd-pleaser. And to be fair, with all the politicians, tech firms, and media that get sucked into the events of the movie, it does seem like director Craig Gillespie has taken some creative liberties in inflating the revolutionary aspect of what was ultimately achieved, as even though the situation that transpired is undoubtedly absurd and the type of I-cannot-believe-this-really-happened situation, I feel the movie made it a bigger deal than it actually was. The over-dramatization is self-aware in this movie though, as the hedge-fund billionaires here are presented as very cartoon-villain-esque, with Pete Davidson's character even observing in-movie how the rich Wall Street joes seeming to have come straight out of a Disney animation.

It boasts a solid cast too, with Paul Dano showcasing yet again that he doesn't always need to play creepy dudes, and that in fact, he can be very likable and heartwarming. Though for those who have seen Okja that should not come as a surprise. Shailene Woodley as his wife shares good chemistry and the two performers commit to the meaning behind the meme-ry. Seth Rogen, Vincent D'Onofrio, Sebastian Stan, and Nick Offerman are fittingly slimy and evil as the Wall Street chaps, with America Ferrera and Anthony Ramos as some of the regular folk who managed to cash in on the action round out the cast well. Dane DeHaan pops in too as a company sales rep and is entertainingly unrecognizable. That being said, with this huge cast of characters there is, perhaps, a little too much bouncing around between stories, and not all the plot threads land powerfully. Pete Davidson as Gill’s layabout brother doesn’t add much, and America Ferrera as the nurse, as sweet as she is, doesn't really get much to do besides look at her phone all the time. Then again, who didn't spend hours upon hours staring at their phone during lockdown, am I riiiiiight??....

Gillespie’s directorial style is funky and fun, and he tailors his film to the subject matter. Again, it's nowhere as deep or clever as, say, The Big Short, however, it's an entertaining and empowering movie that showcases what can happen when people actually come together to show it to the man. Though could have done less with that brass language in the soundtrack. Nearly every scene was accompanied by some rap about f**ks and ducks. And yeah, I get it, Dano's character likes cats in this, but saying the word pussy seventy-five times isn't high-brow humour. Nonetheless, Dumb Money is an easy watch. Definitely the best choice between it and The Expendables. No shade. Now - let's go buy some stocks!!

Overall score: 6/10
