So let we fight tooth and nail to prove it's point
-
- Mr. Tomlinson's feud started after members of the now-defunct Reddit site r/opieandanthony got his Twitter account suspended, causing him to threaten some bored trolls who never heard of him with a libel lawsuit. The trolls responded predictably.
- Mr. Tomlinson has been instructed many times by friends, family, police, and attorneys to stop engaging with his trolls, and that continuing to provoke them will cause him to be trolled even more. Mr. Tomlinson wilfully ignores this advice
- He would eventually file a defamation suit against 60 anonymous people which was dismissed with Mr. Tomlinson being ordered to pay $34,762.25 for opposing parties' attorney fees.
- He ended up paying $83,736.99 due to his unsuccessful attempts to dodge the court-ordered judgement, for which he faced jail time and contempt charges.
- He also filed 2 frivolous restraining orders against people who had engaged in First Amendment-protected behavior (one for texting him and another for attending his contempt of court hearing), both of which were dismissed.
- Early on in the lawsuit, Mr. Tomlinson vandalized his own motorcycle and submitted a false police report blaming the people he was suing.
- He accidentally sent surveillance video of the alleged vandal (himself) to a troll.
- Mr. Tomlinson has never shown this video footage during any of his media tours, and desperately tries to scrub it from the internet.
- Mr. Tomlinson claims that the surveillance video was initiated by his "motion-activated" camera, which only collects "30 seconds at a time", despite the video being 32 seconds long and beginning several seconds before the "vandal" enters into the frame.
- On 13 April 2023, the individual responsible for calling the fake emergencies (SWATs) to Mr. Tomlinson's house, a SWAT-for-hire dealer named "Torswats", revealed that Mr. Tomlinson ordered the SWATs to his own house because he wanted to get in the news and sue the MPD for money.
- Torswats would repeat these allegations in private chats which were not intended for public view.
- Mr. Tomlinson has gone on multiple news tours since the SWATtings started in order to promote his victimhood brand, utilizing the services of Lenora Claire.
- He also recently sued the MPD for money.

The trailer looked miserable and depressing, but then rural Ireland is both of those things. Apparently it's the director's best since In Bruges. Looking forward to seeing it.
It's on HBO Max
I wish they had played up the comedy a bit more. Both the McDonagh brothers have gotten so bleak in their work.
In Bruge was a million times better. The surreal aspects of this movie like the character slicing his fingers off but feeling no pain were too ridiculous. Even the stuff with the midget from In Bruge felt more grounded. Also the dialog felt fecking forced with the same repeated jokes over and over.
I would say this movie is a 5/10 at best. In Bruge is a 10/10 and you could watch it over and over again. Even the deleted scenes are amazing. Not sure I will ever watch this film again.

Thanks for the heads up. Didn't know it was there yet.
It's decent...but nowhere near In Bruges. Also the 15 minute standing ovation at that film festival seems a bit far fetched.
Is this what rural Ireland really looks like? I’d move there in 2 seconds to live in one of these primitive houses along the ocean, everything looking pre 20th century

Lol I've never been to Ireland except once to Dublin. I based my previous comment pretty much on Father Ted. I do know it rains constantly, like a lot more than England even. Oh and Irish beef is better than Scottish or Argentinian imo. Probably because it rains so much.
Interesting. My guess would be the cows are also drunk which loosens up the meat. This is speculation based on pure science which you cannot question.
This also made me want to see an Irish JoeH.

Just finished it. What a great film. Doubt many women would enjoy it.
I love Father Ted.
Great movie. Tell your girlfriend or wife to watch it if she's been bothering you.
Too subtle, themes too complex and would bore them instantly.
You have to be very familiar with Irish history to really 'get' the film. Like the entire ordeal of the main female lead becoming a librarian was an allegory for the massive Irish diaspora throughout Europe and America. She makes the painful decision to leave her roots and family for a huge prosperous opportunity. Yet behind her is suffering and death but she escapes to a new world. The movie is brutal.
But the stuff about the Irish Civil War went way over my head. And I do not want to dig into history books to pick out obscure meanings in an otherwise average film. I would have liked if the movie was less allegorical and more direct like The Godfather where Michael goes from being a US Marine fighting for his country to being in the mafia and essentially an enemy of the state.

The allegory re the civil war was pretty straightforward. Basically it was our fault. Ireland was part of Britain. The civil war was between the Irish who wanted independence and those who wanted to remain part of Britain. This would lead to EIRE and Northern Ireland and eventually the troubles within NI. So friends and neighbours who had a blood feud that they couldn't really get over or even articulate. Sound familiar?
If you think familiarity with a specific time and place is necessary to "get" this film, you're a myopic retard.

That's not noice.
There is so much to the self sabotage of Colm and his scapegoating of Padraic that the movie was just a psychological drama for me.
Then afterwards I spent a couple hours looking up different interpretations of the civil war which was cool, but you can enjoy it without that background.
