- Hope Ortega can make enough money to one day pursue her actual interests.Not topical but Fallon's confused, worried face when Jenna Ortega says she based the Wednesday dance on "Denis Lavant in Beau Travail" is so funny
- There's people walking around, salivating at the thought of getting secret revenge on a total stranger, for an offense they imagined, by handing them money.
- It's interesting how Jordan Peele is one of American cinema's most interesting voices and Keegan-Michael Key pops up while I'm watching Italian schlock on Tubi to advertise hotel chains. I wonder do they still hang out.
- 100% a lie but incredible that their chosen line of defense is, "we cannot competently operate firearms."BREAKING: Police officer who fired a single shot that killed Daunte Wright, a Black man, intended to discharge a Taser, Minnesota police chief says. apne.ws/lzElPde

00:00 - The little tunnel insert shot on that first blast is such an ingenious flourish.ONCE UPON A TIME IN AMERICA (Leone, 1984)
00:00 - Filmmakers, if you're not introducing characters like this, maybe they're not worth knowing?
00:00 - Replying to @ScreenSlateYou've got to wonder, if they just had another two or three billion dollars, might things have turned out differently?
