    I’ve never seen Apocalypse Now, but I get the feeling Trump has never seen Apocalypse Now.

      One time there was a heat wave in my city, and I don’t have air conditioning at home. The movie theater was playing apocalypse now, I think it was the directors cut. It was 3 hours long so I bought a ticket because I wanted 3 hours of air conditioning. I had no idea what a great movie I was stumbling into! It was about war and how horrific it is.

        We just got it on DVD. It’s the “Redux” edition. 3 hours 22 mins. It’s the 6th longest movie in our collection behind LoTR extendeds, Beh-Hur, and Lawrence of Arabia.

        Going in neutral without expectations is the best way to enjoy a movie in my opinion, there’s a indie theatre near my home that mostly plays older classics from US and around the world. I’ve had my mind blown by movies that came out decades ago, good movies age very well

      Great War movie by the way. That guy is a surfer fanatic and basically requested a famous surfer to surf in a hot zone. Dude was crazy just waking on beach with bullets landing around him.

    I refuse to look this up, it must remain potentially satire for the final thread of my sanity cannot take this being real

    dude honestly thinks he is the shit. If there was ever a pit fight between world presidents, I would bet money on him losing his first fight in the first five seconds.

        If historical figures allowed, monarchs definitely yes. I want to see Queen Elizabeth on a horse kicking assess.

          Which one? One or Two?

          Also if historical heads of state are allowed I wanna see Robert the Bruce Vs Richard Lionheart and I also wanna see Charles the First hiding in a corner in the Foetal position rocking back and forth like a little bitch.

              Oh, then it depends when you bring her back. She came to the throne when she was 26 and also served in the army as a mechanic. At the D-Day memorial one year she was the only leader there to have served in the Second World War. So she knows how to shoot a gun, knows how to repair a car, and can defo fuck someone up if she was brought back at her prime.

                I want both versions, first exactly for the same reasons you mentioned and second to see this but jousting with a heavy umbrella towards Trump:

    The last time this obese imbecile was that slim was deep in the last fucking millennium. Which was also when it was the last time he could squat like that, useless cunt.
    If he tried to squat like that today he’d shit himself 4 times on the way down and then roll over like a hog in even more shit.

    Fuck sake, What type of bunch of fools could ever vote for this buffoon? Hang your head in shame.

      No, we’re good. I know some people from the U.S., who still think nothing is wrong with the government. So we got to let the dumpster fire burn out a bit more.

    This is very similar to his playing of fortunate son.

    He watched the movie and though the fire-murder guy was a badass.

    (Or more likely, he never watched the movie).

    I just realised he doesn’t make these himself (or come up with them). But still. Asshole.
