But again he’s a superhero accountant. Not a healthy well adjusted person with autism. I wouldn’t expect to relate to everything.

Besides there is nothing in the movie that suggests he needs to do those things. I saw that as a routine instilled in him by his abusive father. It’s not some example of a proper coping technique he would have learned in the great looking facility his father refused to send him to.

I never thought the movie was presenting him or his brother as happy well adjusted people. The abuse they were raised with was quite obvious.

Disagree. I felt seen.
But I’m not a superhero accountant, so I could be wrong

My go to movies when looking for that kind of thing, are Kiki’s Delivery Service, and Mr. Right.

Exactly true. But celebrating a new coat of paint, instead of cleaning the old paint, is kind of silly. That’s my point.

There are no new stories. Haven’t been for millennia.
Stop asking for re-skinned old stories.

“Based on” wouldn’t be the right term. That would require some knowing intention to make a new version of an old story. I’m saying even if you try to make a new story, it’ll either suck, or be very much like another story written thousands of years ago.

That’s irrelevant to my actual argument.

If you’re going to oversimplify a story that much, remember there are only a couple dozen or so different stories, and they were all written thousands of years ago.

In this case, Mickey 17 would more accurately be Moses in Space, just like Snowpiecer is Moses on a Train. And since neither are original, neither are that great.

Hillary did win the popular vote. By a lot.
People aren’t remotely as sexiest as you think. It’s just that 2% is all it takes to lock in an election pretty well

If A Working Man is based on a book, you can’t really call it original. It’s also another Statham action movie, which also can’t really be called original.

I am excited to see Death of a Unicorn.

That’s why I liked it.
In several places it looked like I knew where it was going, then suddenly it surprised me with a different direction.

The only way to be sure your search is working for you and not advertisers, is to be the one that pays for it.

Even DuckDuckGo is still based on ad’s.

This is great. Been using it for 5-6 months now. Have no need to go back to Neva, Duck Duck Go, Google, or Altavista.
