She supported Hillary Clinton.

You know, the woman that helped her serial-rapist husband cover up his crimes?

You know, the greasiest, slimiest, most dishonest, murdering btch in the History of Politics?

Hillary Fking Clinton?

The woman who has a list of people she dislikes suddenly perishing as a matter of TOTAL coincidence.

Yeah, Portman is a Leftist idiot who votes with her vagina.

Don't try to minimize it....

I remember watching a Barstool Pizza review (One bite, everyone knows the rules) and El Prez (Mr. YouTube) Dave Portnoy, was shouted at and recognized by everyone in NY while he was tasting pizza standing next to:

Mr. Avenger, Jeremy Renner
Don Draper

And two other actors...

Then one teenage girl walks by and gets invited into the review because she recognized El Presidente from YouTube and had no clue who the other actors were...

And the actors commented, its all YouTube and social media now.

She did flip out when she saw Ed Helms and screamed, "oh my god, Nard Dog!" But everyone else was a nobody to her.

What this all means is that you no longer need a big Hollywood studio in order to make content, you just need to make good content. Competition can be a good thing.


Where is all this awesome crowdsourced content? I'm not seeing it. And frankly there may not be an audience if it appears. The public have spoken and they prefer 30 second bites of mindless tiktok.

Yeah? Maybe you should watch this. Portman is about as woke as a celebrity can be.

I don't find Natalie Portman worthy of 'following the rules'. She's nice to look at, but the effort for a pic is too much for me.

She's no *Jessica Alba or Aubrey Plaza.

this may be the first time that i've 100% disagreed with something you've posted. politics aside, Prime Natalie Portman is an absolute all-timer for me, along with Kate Beckinsale and Jessica Biel to round out the top 3.

Key words. *"for me"

And I get the appeal. She's got classic attractive qualities. As I said, easy to look at, no doubt. But she doesn't move my meter, as it were. She's thin. And tiny. As in the frame of a 12 yr old girl tiny. Not for me, is all.

Far more on board with your other 2 choices, btw.

I'm willing to bet she's one of those self important assholes that refuse to call it "movies" and instead call it "Film" or "Cinema".

Which is funny because much of her recent time on the big screen HAS been doing 'movies', as Martin Scorsese calls the MCU stuff, and not actual 'films'.

Even though she's done films, from The Professional to V for Vendetta and Black Swan.

I don't find her attractive - at all.
Weird smile. Five head. Large, unattractive moles on her face. No body to speak of. Could never figure out why she was this transcendent beauty.

IDK, I can see there being some level of distinction. Dodgeball is a movie, Oppenheimer is a 'film'.
