Is Kubrick still around? They'll need him to fake the new, amphibious moon landing.

Nope, died in 1999

Quote
U.S.—An American firearms manufacturer is making waves after unveiling a brand new AR-15 that glows blue whenever libs are nearby. Constructed with ancient elven technology from the forgotten land of Gondolin, this semi-automatic rifle will pulse with an ethereal blue light whenever it detects a democrat within a 100-yard radius.
...
"We are also working on a version for progressives that will glow red whenever there is a racist nearby," said the representative. "Unfortunately that seems to be malfunctioning because it only seems to glow around progressives. We're still working on it."

How many rounds would it take to make the barrel glow blue?

Immediately After Moving To Texas, Elon Musk Announces Tesla AR-15
https://babylonbee.com/news/to-celebrate-move-to-texas-tesla-introduces-battery-powered-ar-15

Quote
"We really wanted to re-think self-defense," said Musk. "This new firearm will be the go-to rifle for our SpaceX volunteers when they encounter hostile aliens. It's also a celebration of the Second Amendment. If any federal authorities try to confiscate it, the rifle will automatically connect to the internet and file a lawsuit for you!"

Comment on TTAG

Quote
After the bullet passes the sighted distance, the bullet comes back and reinsert itself down the barrel, and into a preloaded chamber ready to be fired again.
(It’s why the one bullet you have to buy is $4,800.)

Biden To Defeat Skin Cancer By Ordering Americans To Avoid All Sunlight For 100 Days

Quote
According to sources, Biden's executive order will require all Americans to draw the shades on their windows and live in the basement under at least 3 blankets until 100 days have passed. Additionally, all references to sunshine, such as the song "You Are My Sunshine" and crayon drawings of the Sun in children's art will be strictly prohibited. Experts say this will "do something really scientific to save lives."

Quote
The Biden administration and other politicians will be given waivers to enjoy the sunshine outside since the stresses of their political positions require time to rest and relax.

In 'It's A Wonderful Life' Remake, Angel Tells George Bailey To Kill Himself Because He's White

Quote
The film will be only 20 minutes long and it will end with George Bailey asking forgiveness for his oppression. He then donates all his life insurance money to BLM and jumps off a bridge.

I must have missed this.  There is a great deal of truth here.  After all they seem to be trying to turn Cruella De Vil into sympathetic character through a prequel movie.  I guess she was just trying to save a bunch of Dalmatian puppies from a life of hardship and starvation.  Their writers and idea people are pathetic.

Yes, they were white with black spots.  If they were black with white spots, everything would be okay.   =D

If I recall correctly in the live action movie she's shocked and disappointed that the puppies are all white when she first sees them and then it's explained to her that they're born all white and that the spots come later.

It's the same in the original. I've never seen the live action remake or any other disgraceful attempts to recapitalize on the less-sucky eras of disney movies.
