Everything GREAT About Elysium!

- Elysium! An amazing Neill Blomkamp film that some people loved, others didn't, but since Blomkamp's new movie Demonic just came to theatres, it felt like a good excuse to take a look at this one. So here's everything right with Elysium!

Dude the "corporations backing a coup!? thats bananas" killed me.
Chiquita bananas, that is. The guy knows his history. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Fruit_Company
Someone watched Sam o' Nella
@@dungeon_delvers COMMIE !!!
I think something that I feel gets overlooked in this film is the fact the ships in Elysium are already stocked with med bays meaning they could of already helped or solved the issues at hand, possibly eluding to Elysium was probably a station designed as a medical institute but probably got monetised when shit hit the fan led to people that had money fleeing to it.
Privatization
+ infinite sins.
furthermore: they didnt just have the ships at the ready. they had a whole protocol with Droids EXACTLY for that Project. it would have been as simple as opening your Browser to do this.
@@mr.whocares8787 Furthermore supporting the theory that Elysium was probably a orbital medical facility at first but got cash grabbed.
That would also be a reason why Elysium has few to no weapon systems. It was supposed to be a hospital, not a castle.
Why don't we provide Healthcare and regular feeding to wild animals?
Fun fact about this movie. Eminem was originally asked to play the lead role. The reason why he ended up turning it down, was because the film couldn't be filmed in Detroit. So he asked Matt Damon if he wanted the role instead. Matt was the second choice
I find the thought of Eminem being an actor highly amusing.
@@Voltaic_Fire Honestly, he did pretty good in 8 Mile. I kinda want to see what he would have done for this role tho lol
@@KCGauvreau But wasn’t he kind of playing himself in 8 mile? Can you really call that acting?
@@numerum_bestia Yes, it is acting. Hell, just look at either of the SPACE JAM movies to see people who don't have any great acting talent.
Conversely, Eminem acted very well in 8 MILE and your snark doesn't change that.
@@numerum_bestia It doesn't sound like acting
The CGI on the droids still holds up to this day. I remember watching this in theaters and for a split second thinking that the droids had to be practical effects.
I don’t recall this movie is that old
@@gamerstheater1187 bit over 8 years ago. Not as drastic as the previous 8 years but while the bare minimum for acceptable looking VFX hasn't raised that much, it's really impressive that this movie looks very good even by today's standards.
Rock and Stone
Chappi has fears
We need an Everything Great About Rango
Definitely an underrated movie
Saw it in theaters
Did he already do one for Owls of Ga'hool?
what about matrix 1?
yes absolutely.
@@Machtyn yeeees why is nobody talking about that movie?
I lowkey really like this movie. The cyberpunk style it has is really cool and the exosuits are a really cool concept. And yes please EGA Johny Mnemonic!
I am not sure if you have, but The Surge is a Souls-like video game series, which has those suits, and one of the most daunting opening cutscenes. People who have played know EXACTLY what I am talking about. But the games are good, while I suck at those style of games, I enjoyed The Surge 1... for what I played of it.
We're still a ways' away from small-scale exoskeletons like the ones in the movie, but we're pretty close to chunkier ones.
As a South African, having an actual South African actor play a character from the country is always a win. American actors always butcher the accent 😬.
Also quick translation of the Afrikaans words:
Lekker: nice, or good
Boet: brother, bro, usually said to a friend
Ja: yes (we say this alot😅😂) it sounds like yaa
South Africa seems like an incredible country.
German influenced
You missed “kak” 😂
@@JTM610 Dutch actually. Pick up a history book please.
@@kraay89 elaborate
Yessss Elysium is so underrated. So many people didn’t like it cause they expected District 10 or something or else they hated the political messages (it’s Blomkamp, what were you expecting?)
this comment is so pretentious
@@AlexParkerEmcee how is it pretentious? it’s just the truth. many people either expected a direct sequel or something really similar to district 9, or else they were right wing people who disagreed with the film “glorifying” illegal immigration. if i had said “people simply didn’t understand the movie line me!” then it could be pretentious. tf you on about
@@WTDProductions no trust me it’s pretentious
@@ryanbradford6227 one glance at your subscriptions i can tell why you don’t know what pretentious means, and why you don’t like the political commentary in elysium
@@ryanbradford6227 nothing pretentious here except you pretending that other people are because of your inability to argue their points
“Magic med bays wouldnt be kept for the rich.” Looks at insulin that costs more than rent for people living in seattle.
Exactly. My mind immediately went to the price of insulin, too.
Part of that is government regulation driving up costs for both insulin and housing.
God am I glad of living on europe
Insulin is the result of a LACK of a free market. Specifically through "patents" and "copyright".
@@Ze_N00B which are also by-products of capitalism.
The worst part of this movie is that in real life, factory workers wouldnt try to pull the machine apart to try and help him.
Factory work effectivly lobotomises its workers and i have seen videos where they simply pull the body out of the way, it gets cleaned up and an hour later they go back to work.
You might think this is a dystopian future. This is already happening in 3rd world contries.
Jesus Christ that's sad.
We are borderline there now in the southern states of America. People dying and losing limbs in factories down there, but no unions!
@@JoshuaTootell but unions are bad, I know because the big companies tell me they're bad.
“Maybe it’s time to get out the voting ballots, I mean guillotines, I mean eaTHERICH-!”
I vibe with this.
Every day I read the news, I just realise we're rapidly hurtling closer and closer to a real cyberpunk dystopia and this movie really kinda underlines just how much that's true. I remember seeing this back in 2013 and loving it but now it definitely hits different.
Hurtling towards? We are there for quite a while now.
Correction, Elysium is the "nice" part of the larger Underworld, reserved to philosophers, kids and heroes
I thought this too
Huh.
If I recall correctly from my days as a Philosophy major, it’s mostly philosophers who say that philosophers go to Elysium
@@Gilamath. greeks held thinkers in great esteem
@@edoardoprevelato6577 Greek _philosophers_ held themselves in great esteem. Socrates was ridiculed in front of Athenes by a play writer, which earned said Play writer the andmger of his students
The aesthetics of this movie really shows how good Neil Bloomkap would be directing an Alien film
Didn't Bloomkap have something to do with District 9?
You got me thinking about a Alien/Aliens level new film
@@chrisferguson1911 yup, it was his first movie
But i don't mean a movie about Aliens, i mean his script for Alien 5, that would be set after Aliens and ignore Alien 3 and Resurrection
@@wattsnottaken1 what do you mean ?
@@plaguedoctorjamespainshe6009 Yeah, just found out about that. So yes, I believe he would do the Alien series justice.
When human rights are considered "Politics." Keep talking about this stuff my friend, that's how you start convincing people.
Like the right to defend yourself and others and the right to choose for yourself.
Well, human rights ARE inherently political, always have been. The sooner we admit that things that affect large amounts of people are always political (and that it is a good thing to be political about these matters), the sooner we can get rid of politicians that feed off of apolitical agendas and only do us damage. Collective matters are always political.
@@mariaah3073 The point is that they shouldn't be political in the sense that human rights matter more than anything else, politics can be discussed, human rights should not be discussed, they should be assured.
@@dakelsmak there's always weirdos like you to be the shitty passive-aggressive contrarians
@@mariaah3073 yeah also by definition rights are political
Elysium was more than just the Greek version of the after-life. It was the paradise of the after-life. Similar to heaven vs hell or purgatory. So it's really even more of a win.
Yeah, a lot of cultures, like Norse, have that special afterlife for the chosen special few instead of the regular afterlife in Hel.
@@tiacho2893 "Valhalla", I believe it was called?
@@cyber8697 Correct. and in both usually involved dying valiantly in a fight. So it could be argued Max went to Elysium, died, then went to Elysium again
You could argue that Valhalla wasn't heaven, simply a stay of execution, since the entire point of Valhalla is that it serves as the bulwark of the Asgard before Ragnarok begins.
Yes, you get to eat, fight, drink, and ogle the valkyries, but it's not until the end of time that you get to do so.
It's always nice seeing people who actually understand that, realistically, governments and companies waste a ton of money avoiding problems than they would've used to actually fix it.
Maybe avoiding it once or twice saved them money compared to fixing it immediately, but the problem keeps getting worse and they keep spending so much money to avoid it than it surpassed the cost of just fixing it.
A prime example is all the money they spend on anti-homeless architecture like half benches or spikes under overpasses, they could put that money towards giving homeless people another shelter
@@DanWMiller Or San Francisco's plan to install thousands of $20K trash cans because 'homeless people are rooting through them looking for drugs and recyclables'. They'd rather spend literal millions of dollars making technologically sophisticated refuse bins (that would undoubtedly get vandalized and broken or break down on the regular), than they would actually put that money towards solving the root of the problem.
@@DanWMiller that aint so easy. You need place to build those houses. You will find it mostly far far on outskirts of cities. so it would be basically forcefull relocation. And it's bad to say it, but many homeless people put themselves in this position. They would likely act like those winners of lotteries who suddenly got milion or couple of milions and in few years get back to even worse then what they started with.
And then there are people like gypsies who completley devastate social houses they get, sell everything they can, even tiles from walls, and then demand more social money.
sad fact is, thet is our human condition. If we magically one day gave everyone a home and work in 10 years we would be back to places that have huge poverty.
The cruelty is the point.
@@DanWMiller but then there would be no way to make money for the politicians if there are no more homeless to pretend to throw money at.
There was that one mayor who went undercover and was so horrified how his attempt to help the homeless was accused that he fired everyone from top to bottom because it was that mishandled
It's amazing that you did this movie and then didn't even try to hide the correlations with our current political climate. Some people would have ignored them or just not mentioned them but you made it a point to talk about them. it's those small actions of not ignoring our own issues and even educating certain people (including me) on real-world political problems that people see every day. Loved this video and I please ask you to never stop speaking your mind!
I don't need political nuance from someone who does it so poorly. If you think the wealth gap in capitalist countries like America is bad then try a socialist's country. Ten times as bad and evil as literally anything here. By the way, the rich assholes doing everything they can to increase the gap in wealth here in the states? The same assholes pushing this channel's progressive politics. "Eat the rich" is literally said by the party for the rich.
I hate when this channel isn't just about good movies.
@@ephemispriest8069 What insane wealth gaps in socialist countries can you name? And how do they compare with capitalist wealth inequality?
I really love that about this channel. It wasn't the first time. Hopefully it won't be the last.
I dont know how someone could honestly review a movie like this and NOT talk about those correlations, theyre literally the point of the genre.
@@ephemispriest8069 "I dont need political nuance"
"everything is worse in socialism"
"this channel got political because of rich people, who want people to call out their bullshit apparently"
You could skip the paragraph of contradicting whining by just saying you want to be comfortably ignorant and act like this is the best coutry ever you know. Also throw out the part about pretending everyone who opposes your politics are the same thing they oppose, which you say isnt bad right before saying is a problem caused by your political opponents, which is stupid.
"Dad jokes its why you're here"
I did not expect to be called out this morning
19:20 Synthetic insulin seems like a pretty good modern day example of this. Cheap to produce, but when you control all the supply what's the point in selling at close to cost :D
"Do we need an EGA Johnny Mnemonic?"
YES! YES! YES!
Also yes
Yes, please.
Yes. This. 100% this.
GOD YES!!!
Plzplzplz 🙏
I am here for Lee taking NO prisoners when it comes to pointing out the abundant wealth inequality in the US (and elsewhere). +1 win for realism
But someone who makes $35000 and has a $60,000 house is technically part of the 10% of the world. So would you ask those people to give? Many countries have very wealthy people as well what about them? Should we try to control their wealth to give to others?
We are the 4%
@@d5o1001 yes.
Wealth inequality in the US lmao, you have no idea how good the US has it compared to so many other countries. Would you rather everyone starve under mass socialism? Then at least we'd be equal 🤷♂️
@@cabnbeeschurgr6440 Maybe they should look for some discounted organs from China if they're worried about medical costs so badly. That'll give em the moral high ground!
The fact that you've seen Hardcore Henry , is wonderful. Please do an EGA on it. One of the most unique action films in a long way.
Plus Sharlto Copley is always a win.
I agree with this 100%. One of my absolutely favorite movies just because it is incredibly unique.
Such a good movie :)
@@jebediah_primm4855 yes

I agree, still love it though.
When you establish that anyone can be brought back from the dead even if their heads are blown off, it sort of gets rid of the dramatic stakes. Like when Kruger stabbed his boss, she could literally just be revived so that scene was robbed of its dramatic potential.

Honestly the suicide squad wasn't that good,
Its an action movie with amazing cgi without an actual story
Also the villain wasn't good.
But its just my opinion lol
Yep.
@@EDENGIDOR Still better than the previous one, am I right?
Yes
I’m super disappointed about how you didn’t talk much about the INCREDIBLE soundtrack. I mean seriously, I’ll love Hanz zimmers work till I die, but this is a serious contender!
I know Sharlto Copley is from South Africa and not Russian, but he would make an amazing Kraven The Hunter...but they went with Aaron Taylor Johnson for some reason
Don't watch many movies? Aaron Taylor Johnson is a great actor!
@@PrinceIsot nobody’s denying that, but there are plenty of actors more fit for that role
@@fistbumpstudioz4548 ok

Real talk: I was hoping this kind of mentality would've been finished after Heath Ledger's Joker. Hell people also said the same with RDJ's Tony Stark casting and Hugh Jackman's Wolverine casting. Just stop being prejudice and reserve your opinion until you've seen their actual performance and where it goes. Twonk.
"Do we need an EGA Johnny Mnemonic?"
Yes. Emphatically yes.
And thanks for drawing the parallels between the film and current events. It's refreshing to have even the more moderate-presenting TH-camrs addressing something as objectively wrong, not just an opinion.
I second this!!
"Maybe we should get out the voting ballets, I mean guillotine I MEAN EAT THE RICH"

I love how you are talking about how bad the LA law enforcement is in both irl and movie
I'm SO happy that you're talking positively about this movie. I've loved this film ever since it dropped in cinemas. FAR more than the masses at large sadly. And far more than either Chappie or District 9. Mostly because I hate stories following terrible, unredeemable people. And both of those movies followed TERRIBLE people. You can actually root for and sympathize with the central character of Elysium. Not to mention that the visuals are top notch as is the case with the other films in Blomkamp's central sci-fi movies. This is by far, and without hyperbole, one of the most underrated sci-fi flicks out in the wild.
Very cool to slowly see Lee become radicalized over time. Best part of this series. Consume enough art and it’ll pull you leftwards. Love to see it.
If you want more of Sharlto Copley, do EGA The A-Team. He does a fantastic job as "Howling Mad" Murdock.
This is also my daily reminder that I'm still waiting for EGA Speed Racer.
Well, this movie aged phenomenally.
Really?
@@starwarsprequelsandsequels7582 phenomenally, as in it aged well.
I legit saw this movie couple of hours ago and searched it on TH-cam for other opinions
I just noticed the upload date when you pointed it out
Good coincidence
and love to see some leftist theory from the most positive film youtube channel, you have gone up in my books good sir
Blomkamp's work was the first CGI that looked indistinguishable from reality to me. Up until District 9, things looked great, but could never leave me wondering whether or not what I am looking at is a prop or something inserted digitally.
Man there's a video where one of the district 9 compositors takes you through their Nuke setup and its so so good. Not just great cgi, but fantastic choices in general. They had so much control over the renders just in compositing you can really see what it takes to get that next step.
I really, REALLY like Elysium. Its a great sci-fi flick if you just want to disengage brain and watch a movie, but has so many layers that you can get so much out of it if you want a super intelligent film, and every performance is top notch with a fantastic aesthetic. Definitely underappreciated.

Word of God: The citizens of Elysium are Older Than They Look. A Freeze-Frame Bonus says that Carlyle is born in 2010, making him 144 years old. Jodie Foster says that Delacourt is 108.
As a nerd, I would watch an entire exposition of this. Human cell division stops at 125 years, making that effectively our maximum age (ish). How they overcame the aging process of cell division with some Star Trek level dialogue would be fun. Solving the "age" epidemic we have would go a long way in supporting Interstellar travel!

i did not expect such a depressing breakdown of the modern world in this light entertainment/ analysis show. And yes i still loved it
I don't normally comment on your vids even though I've been watching for like 3 years now. I thought your political commentary was well written and expressed eloquently. I generally watch your vids to feed my optimism, but I appreciate your willingness to express your opinions openly. I think that you approached the issue with respect and level-headedness, a quality that is often lacking in these kinds of tense discussions. I am a firm believer in the idea that change comes from having a civil, open conversation, with the intent to promote equality and equity. You make the internet a little bit of a brighter place, and I just wanted to say thanks for that.
Work the shaft you slobbering bitch. It's the smartest thing you know how to do.
I really like that this movie is about as subtle as a train wreck on a boat.
Yeah, but when media is subtle with it's themes a lot of people just switch off and ignore them, there's value in being unsubtle.
A quick search seems to indicate you’ve never done Gattaca. Now that is a film that seemed like pure sci-fi when it was made and is now within the realm of possibility in very short order. Also- it’s just a stunning film.
I literally forgot about this movie.

Please do cloud atlas, it’s crazy and insane and weird and I’d love to know your thoughts!!!
Yup
This!
When it came out, I remember reviews griping about how long it was. Those naive fools.
For a second there I thought you end up your speech by mentioning Bill Gates, and it would end as billionaire philanthropist saving the day from turning into full-dystopia like every other capitalist fairytale. And then you mentioned his stance on AstraZeneca and I'm glad we all get to remember he's still playing the game, aiming to keep his name on the high score list of the Arcade game that we're all playing.
I was wondering, can you watch and review the movie Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron by DreamWorks? It has a good soundtrack and a very good message too. Just don't watch the so called "sequal" as it just throws that message away.
It is my childhood movie as I used to watch it almost all of the time and it is one of the reasons why I am going to college to become a veterinarian.
To explain, Elysium isn't the sole greek afterlife but started as an afterlife for those favored by the gods before becoming a general "good person" afterlife.
I really can't wait for you to do Chappie! Movies like this are so, SO good!!
I've always liked when you put policital content in your videos. I mean... it's always a nice feeling to hear someone say thing you agree with... but in this one, you went further. Much further...and I just want to thank you for that. Not sure how the public will react, but it makes me so happy that you can carry those kind of message... so thank you so much. And please... more political contents ;)
Seems a lot of people are enjoying it compared to the usual ratios of people saying politics I see online, and that's certainly a good thing to see
@@rowbot5555 Yeah, used to seeing a very strong "No politics, [insert type of media here] is my escapism" attitude online in any space that isn't explicitly political. Nice to see a change from that.
Hugs for youuuu! This movie was hard to watch, for me, at THE TIME - it's only worse now that 'healthcare for all' is so much MORE in the public consciousness and people arguing against it would INDEED ACTUALLY BENEFIT FROM IT... It's rough being a softie when people keep poking you with sharp things...
I wish I could "like" this video more than once. Thank you so much for this, Lee, I feel like it was somehow too short, I love hearing people outside of my usual political youtube talking about human rights, equality, and societal problems that aren't fixed just because of people making money off them
Kinda like how BLM leaders bought mansions?
Or that Climate alarmists have ocean front property?
Or maybe how trans activists are accusing gay people of transphobia?
Zealots are just as bad as grifters.

@@JonGreen91 Without sources/references you might as well be presenting a strawman argument here.
@Cabnbeeschugr When the movie being discussed is inherently political, I don't see how it does justice to the film to ignore or skirt around those issues?
So I'm happy you gave me reasons to appreciate age of Ultron but I'd be pretty shocked if you could get 20 minutes worth of wins out of After Earth. Or rather I'd be shocked if you could get enough wins out of After Earth to overwrite the bad that movie has.
I hope you eventually do Speed Racer, it's a great and underrated movie
Yup
I would listen to John Goodman complain about the poor quality of ninjas these days for hours.
I love your video's but the somewhat political massages in here can stay out of it if you ask me. It made my eyes roll a couple of times (and im not from the us)
I like your occasionally serious critiques about real world problems Lee, it's very eye opening.
Elysium, the space station, reminds me of the Presidium of the Citadel within Mass Effect.
Interesting
Man I'm glad you cover this, it's always made me uncomfortable but that's the point. Being Mexican I can relate to the "ilegal people" dieing for the chance of saving their children's lives or being denied basic human right for not being from a certain class. Great video as always. Thank you.
Gosh we really need to get an EGA Hardcore Henry. C'mon. Copley needs all his appearances covered, if just for Platinum Trophy.
When The Matrix Resurrections comes out, can you do the Matrix trilogy, like you did with the original Star Wars trilogy with The Last Jedi, please?
Yes, we NEED everything great about Johny Mnemonic!
I want a sequel, prequel, video game, minnie series, full on TV show, breakfast cereal... Anything else?! I want more entertainment in the same world.
The whole "space colony spins to create gravity via centrifugal force" concept is, at the very least, 40-ish years old by this point. Space Odyssey did it and the Gundam franchise have been doing it since it started in 79.
I could watch hours of Lee saying (essentially): "Eat the rich!"
This video was awesome! I only watched Elysium once, when it was released, and as a brazilian it just became "that one sci-fi movie with Wagner Moura" in my memory. Great to see it through your eyes.
And brilliant commentary. You're amazing, Lee. A true gem.

Can't believe there are people saying shit like "A Bill Gates type billionaire would take care of everyone" when Bill Gates is here, on this world, and is very much not doing that.
I've never heard of this movie

Amazing review. The casually brutal and personal killing in this movie still sticks with me even though I watched it years ago. Almost scarier to see how little human life is worth rather than how unequal that society is.
Going back to old films and being like "oh this film was about class war too, cool"
I remember seing this movie for the first time. It does not hide away the fact that it's about class war. Elysium makes it slightly more litteral imo by making the station's forces act like a '' realistic'' (for the standard amount of displacement of this movie) military. But if I say that the movie is worse than reality, people will find me some counter examples, and I don' t wish to be depressed by this
Phenomenal episode, bright and shining example of how you can in fact address the horrible things about reality that need to be changed, the ways you can change them, and the joy and hope that comes with that full cognizance
Everything is GREAT about this channel.
You just watched Everything Wrong With CinemaSins do you?😏😏😏
I fucking love how much further and further left we've seen Lee get as this channel has gone on. Fucking fantastic to see a pretty main stream content creator still being honest about how fucked up this world is.
So what you have to be a leftist to make accurate commentary on global affairs? Jesus your logic is broken
@@sheev9852 yes, because right wing takes are based on garbage✌️😙
@@StealthPants1 and you wonder why idiot leftist like you get so much hate...it's cos you're all ignorant idiots
How has Johnny Mnemonic not been covered yet?
YES COVER IT!
Neil Blomkamp films are always prescient and heavy, and that's what make them so good. What's sad is I always thought that the Elysium colony is the closest we're ever going to get to seeing his theatrical version of Halo..
Yes. Yet another great film to do cinema wins with. Can you also do interstellar?
Yup
yes definitely Interstellar

oh sh*t go off i guess? loving the unapologetic and funny (but nuanced and productive where necessary) political commentary in this one
I love that this whole video is just like "Capitalism is the fucking worst my dude"
not capitalism. Spiralling out of control capitalism. Both ends of this spectrum are bad. Sadly humans always need someone in charge, usually quite few people. If they control who gets rich, they ill themselves get rich. And make their friends rich. And we are back at starting line.
And if they only rule but do not control who gets rich, then some indyvidals will peak (mostly due to being socjopaths, its real) and having money they can buy people to gain power.
Literally our only hope is AI overlords. I'm not joking. AI taking over the world can be the biggest blessing for human kind. That's why it will never happen
@@olotocolo the same thing applies to communism
@@olotocolo Who will build the A.I?
@@illiteratereddragon3762 lol
@@olotocolo unfettered capitalism is the best. shit starts to go wrong when the government comes in to "regulate" any aspect of it. Don't have a choice of ISP and are paying to much? talk to your local government making it impossible to have any competition in your market. no regulation you have 10 ISPs actually competing for your money. Governments are the problem not capitalism.
really good prediction of how AI will only benefit the rich. Funny how people today think it will be used to help everyone lmao
I’d like to submit my vote for Johnny Mnemonic, I’d also just like to say that I’d love to hear what you have to say about the Snyder cut Leigh, I really respect your opinion on movies
CinemaWins Has Had It with our shitty dystopian present and I for one 100% agree. Go off, king
Wagner is our national treasure! Narcos is gold and so is this film. Salute from Brazil! ♡
BORA BRASIIIIIILLL!
Outro BR que assiste CinemaWins, ae porra kkkk. Sim, o Wagner Moura é um puta ator, e a Alice Braga tbm mandou mto bem. Esse filme como um todo é muito bom, um dos meus favoritos
@@bigguy8435 Finalmente caralhooooo
E sim, a Alice mandou bem demais. É foda só a falta de reconhecimento deles no cinema nacional, infelizmente. Mas eles dois são incríveis
@@TheNoxian ??
@@TheNoxian sobre a Alice Braga todo bem, mas acho que pro Wagner Moura não falta reconhecimento não. O Brasil todo paga pau pro home, o currículo dele é enorme. Tem reconhecimento pra caralho, e justamente.
@@mariaah3073 O Wagner teve uma era de ouro no Brasil sim, mas hoje em dia a gente não reconhece ele tanto quanto antes. A Alice infelizmente sempre foi apagada aqui, ao contrário da mãe, mas o Wagner foi apagando também, e é uma decaída muito significativa.
Wait, how come there's no "Everything Great about District 9"? It's such a great film
