    Dude can't even handle a social network platform but he feels he can just make a phone company too.  Yeah I'm sure that will work out.  And that broad who egged him on to say that is dumb as shit.  "The biased, snooping android and Iphone",  you honestly think that Elon's phone isn't going to be monitoring you or doing shit with your info?

    My VGMF contribution this week. I found a small YouTuber named CRGuitar who has a ton of killer tracks on his channel. Recommend you guys check him out.

    Why would it even come to that? 
     
    Also the folks saying they will buy a phone from Elon's shop have no real understanding of how those software platforms work.

    I finished watching all of the Rambo films over the last five days.
    I had never seen them before.
     
    My ratings:
     
    First Blood - 8.5/10
    Rambo:  FB2 -  7.5/10
    Rambo 3  - 6.5/10
    Rambo (2008)  - 8/10
    Rambo: Last Blood - 6/10
     
    Impressions:
     
    The breakdown scene at the end of the First Blood is one of Stallone's best performances alongside the first Rocky/Creed films.
     
    The sheriff in the first movie should have gotten a little more character background. Apparently, in the First Blood novel, he was a Korean war vet and has resentment because he feels Vietnam vets and WW2 vets go the lions share of attention and not those of his war. 
     
    I was surprised that the Viet girl in 2 dies right after they kiss. 
     
    It was cool that 3 had him go after Col Trautman, but the final battle was bit too cartoonish.
    Also, it really feels like pro-Afghanistan film. There's a dedication to "the people of Afghanistan" as the credits roll.
    I guess they were trying to show the costs of war among a foreign country's citizens, but part of me was wondering if they wanted to appeal to conservatives and dunk on Soviets at the same time.
     
    These films sure are lean. 80-97 minute runtimes without credits.
     
    4 and 5 sure ratchet up the violence. for 4, it adds to the terrifying vibe of the Burmese soldiers and the hopelessness.
    5 feels like an audition for Rambo to be featured as DLC in Mortal Kombat 11 - The 2 main villains are taken out in true FATALITY style.
    It took me out of the film a bit- 1-3 had R ratings but never went that far.
    Million, you would probably love 4 and 5 especially. 
    The last 30 minutes of 5 feels like it could be called "Home Stallone"
     
    My issues with 5 are that it feels a bit too modern in terms of lighting. The neon lights and how it is shot makes it look a bit too glossy. 
    The plot feels like a Taken type of film. The military elements seem downplayed. I do like that he set up his own Viet Cong style tunnels on his own property though.
    Learn what worked against you and use it on another enemy.
     
    I would have liked the last film to be more drama and maybe downplay the action a bit. Also, maybe have mostly American" villains or something that couldn't just be physically beaten.
     
    I really liked this song at the end of First Blood.

    I've had a theory for years that giving kids "virtue" names sets them up to develop some sort of deeply cynical backlash.  Probably from the disappointment of the world not living up to the implicit expectations that come with that.
     
    Like, back in high school I noticed that if you were really desperate to get laid all you really had to do was be even a little bit nice to any girl named Chastity.
     
    Shit,  I also went to high school with a girl named Liberty, and I wouldn't be at all surprised to find out now that she's deep into bondage SM culture or similar.

    What is it about people named "Joy" that they are usually the most miserable people? I had an ex by that name and it was the same deal, and to this day I have never met a woman named Joy where that name was at all appropriate. Should have just named them "Black Hole."

    The marketing for Strange World has been weird.  I'm still not 100% what its about.   I'll definitely watch it when it comes on D+ but they haven't done a great job in making me interested in it.
