Oh, I absolutely do not begrudge anyone getting a paycheck, we all need to eat.
I don't think any of the directors you mentioned would push back against studio interference though. There are directors who will trade control for a paycheck and there are ones who won't. The ones who won't often make more interesting movies.
I'm still not sure why you're so certain about this. You're speculating that something might happen and yet you said that there's a "100%" chance of US boots on the ground in Iran.
As awful as Trump is, his first term wasn't nearly as hawkish at that of other republican presidents.
That's kind of what I'm saying. Any director working for them has to be OK with the studio taking their movie and fucking around with it, they don't get to kick up a fuss.
That automatically excludes a whole bunch of really talented directors who actually might make something worth watching if the studio wasn't so meddlesome.
One of the problems Disney has is that they want total control over their movies so they only hire directors who will churn out product and not push back.
Those kind of directors seldom make good movies.
This fits what you're looking for:
In the UK the BBC is hugely pro-establishment but their reporting on world news is fantastic.
Superhero movies and soy beans.
That doesn't necessarily equate to there being a 100% certainty of boots on the ground in Iran though, does it?
No there's not. Where are you getting this absolute certainty from?
There's no pressure on them to support progressive policies in a 2 party system. All they have to do is wait until Trump's administration shits the bed and they'll win again.
I'm not sure we're on a path to WWIII if it's Russia vs everyone else. If China decides to get involved then maybe but I don't see any evidence they're willing to throw in with Putin, same with Iran.
The original is a stone cold classic. The remake, not so much.
Looks like Netanyahu's campaign to render the word "antisemetic" as completely meaningless continues.
Release the Pedofiles!
Monsters remain scary as long as the audience doesn't know much about them because the imagination is always scarier than the reality. Giving them a backstory was a dumb move, not helped by the writing being absolutely fucking abysmal, but that's always been Ridley Scott's achilles heel. Give him a great script and he's one of the best directors around.
I suspect the powers that be will let this orange chucklefuck have a little fun but if he really starts eating into their profits and refuses to back off, he's going to have an accident.
The acid rain is going be be so slimming.
Donald Trump groped me in what felt like a ‘twisted game’ with Jeffrey Epstein, former model alleges.

What non-touristy places have you always wanted to visit and why?
A few spring to mind because they're in movies I like:
Broken Hill, Australia - Wake in Fright, The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert
Tocopilla, Chile - Where Alejandro Jodorowsky grew up and shot his last two movies.
Isle Royale, Michigan - It's an island in a lake with a lake in it that has an island.

No luck getting my Lemmy instance up and running, is this a good place to get some help?
I'm not exactly a linux beginner but I'm far from an expert and I could use some pointers. I have a domain and a VPS through Namecheap, I chose Ubuntu 20.04 LAMP and I've tried several guides to get this working but something always goes wrong sooner or later.
My latest attempt is to follow along with this guide: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/administration/install_docker.html
No errors until the docker-compose up -d command, then
ERROR: yaml.constructor.ConstructorError: while constructing a mapping in "./docker-compose.yml", line 26, column 12 found unhashable key in "./docker-compose.yml", line 26, column 13
which leads to image: {{ lemmy_docker_image }}
I guess I could start over with a different guide but I'm just chasing my tail at this point. Could any kind soul suggest where to go from here?
