    …Does anyone even want this? Even if we ignore the controversies (like Jackie Chan serving on the CPPCC, Chris Tucker flying to Epstein’s island, and Brett Ratner harrassing a dozen women we know about), who actually looks at Rush Hour 3 and waits 18 years for a sequel?

        He wants a movie with a black man and an Asian man who hates America teaming up to fight corrupt criminals? When the last one got 17% on rotten tomatoes?

      I’ve seen a lot of films. A lot. I haven’t seen any of the Rush Hour movies. So, no, I do not want a Rush Hour 4. I liked Chris Tucker in The Fifth Element, but that’s about it.

          I’m sure it was better for white liberals. but everyone who isn’t a fascist probably didn’t have as glowing a review of it as you do.

      What a weird thing to draw a line in the sand about. Denouncing America doesn’t sound like a crazy thing; it’s run by a cultist rapist.

          China is objectively better in almost every regard and by almost any metric. All other first world nations are better than the US in every metric. The United States only leads the rest of the world in number of incarcerated people.

          It doesn’t even lead in freedom and democracy, which is supposed to be its thing.

              the United States has literally run a government funded school to teach right-wing authoritarians from Latin America how to do most of the things you just mentioned since 1946.

                  Centuries? The School of the Americas is open today, under the Trump admin, just as it was under the Biden admin. I don’t have to dig into history at all to discuss the varied atrocities the US is currently responsible for. This isn’t just history, it’s current affairs.

                  The United States never has been the beacon of democracy and human rights it claims to be. And it sure as fuck was never the greatest country in the world. It’s an authoritarian cesspit run by corporations and fueled by the destruction of the environment and repression of smaller nations. There are dozens of countries that are better in any metric than the US, and China is the least of them. Even the UK does better than the US on every metric, including personal freedoms and right to privacy, and they’ve been run by a conservative government for decades.
