  The Green Knight 2021

  ★★★ Watched by Juan-Carlos Arias 10 May 2022

  I wasn't aware Sir Gawain was of South Asian descent, or that he was a member of the round table solely because of nepotism (as his skills as a knight are completely lacking)...

  The Matrix 1999

  ★★★★ Watched by Juan-Carlos Arias 21 Apr 2022

  For those who claim the Matrix Saga is a Marxist work; I just don't see it. It's clearly influenced by Baudillard (who was a Marxist early, but broke with Marxism by the time he wrote Simulacra and Simulation) who may share concepts with Marx (superficially) while fundamentally being a postmodernist. The film aesthetically may also share concepts with HK cinema (superficially) while fundamentally being a Hollywood product.

  Watched by Juan-Carlos Arias 29 Oct 2021 1

  The Oscar bait limited hangout to MCU US State department propaganda pipeline is real.

  Candyman 2021

  Watched by Juan-Carlos Arias 07 Sep 2021 1

  Another pointless remake obviously pandering to the woke CRT liberal crowd. Its director is one of many NYU Tisch hipsters vying for a spot on the MCU assembly line. Once again showing that identity politics and the military-industrial complex can happily coexist.
