I spent most of this week rewatching old Denzel Washington films. I don’t think I have a #1 favorite actor, but if I did he’d most likely be in one of the top 3 spots. I managed to watch, Man on Fire, American Gangster, Flight, and both The Equalizer 2 and 3. All really great films.
The new series The Penguin comes out tomorrow on MAX and I’m REALLY looking forward to it.
Let me know in the comments what you recently watched or planning to watch.

When I grow up I want to be like Denzel.
I’m most excited about The Penguin and Twilight of the Gods
Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story (2022) was eerie, but the editing was bad. season 2 (different story) should be interesting.
movies:
– Vox Lux (2018) great movie
– The Killing (1956) loved it. it exceeded my expectations
– Dr. Strangelove (1964) same as above
– Red Riding: The Year of Our Lord 1974 (2009) nice crime/thriller
– Cuckoo (2024) loved every minute of it, maybe because I love Dan Stevens. great story and execution. the sound is a character in this movie. will keep Tilman Singer in my radar
– Booger (2023) a great body horror
Denzel Washington is a masterpiece.
all his movies perfect
Why is Kuwait screening Reagan, a right-wing American propagandist film, produced by and starring Trump supporters (Dennis Quaid)?
Kuwait is very careful about what it screens and what it doesn’t. It refused to screen Justice League because it starred Zionist actor, Gal Gadot, and it stopped screening Beauty & The Beast because it had a scene of a guy ballroom dancing with another guy.
Habibi, they sell Mein Kampf in Arabic at Jarir 😐
They also used to sell it in Carrefour ten years ago before I made a scene in the middle of the store and demanded that it be removed immediately.
All Palestinians like me should hate Hitler and his vermin Nazi troops.
You just aired out what wing you sit on. You being far left did you want a ticket as a handout, open free entry & rainbows everywhere ? Reagan was not right wing he was just a Republican & actually was a good President. The far wings didnt truly exist until many years later. Keep your shitty politics to yourself & enjoy the post about films because thats what this is about.
I’m far left because I don’t like Reagan or Trump.
Are you kidding me? Reagan was great? Yeah tell that to the black South Africans back in the 80s whom he viewed as subhuman.
Why don’t you stop venting your life frustrations on strangers online? How about that?
A free handout in Kuwait? Are you ok? This is not America. This is Kuwait habeebi. There are no free handouts in movie theaters or pride parades. Calm down.
Pissed you off moron ? My job is done here. Mic drop
Yeah, it definitely sounds like I pissed you off.
Do you get a kick out of upsetting people? Maybe you have Narcissistic Personality Disorder?
If you think that hurt my feelings, girl you are wrong. It actually boosted my ego. Trump 2024
Sidenote: Malcolm X and Training Day are my personal favorite Denzel pictures.
Malcom X was produced by Arnold Perl, a jewish man with close connections to Israel, and that is one of your Denzel favorite movies ?
Training Day was written by David Ayer, a die hard pro israeli supporter. That is another favorite of yours ?
You ask questions about why Kuwait is screening this or that movie if it has a trump supporter. You sound knowledgeable about who stars in what movie and their nationality, and we should be careful what we screen etc etc.
If you dig deeper, everything you like has a connection back to something you dislike.
Stop the hypocrisy.
If you are all for banning, keep the same energy across the board.
Do you honestly think most people look at the credits of a film and see who is writing the screenplay and then proceed to Google their life story?
If you think most people do that then you need help.
Malcolm X is a beautiful film with a beautifully conveyed message.
Settle down.
I went on David Ayer’s Wikipedia page and found nothing about his political leanings.
I saw Training Day and Malcolm X in Middle School back when there was no Google or social media in the mid 2000s.
Please excuse me for not knowing who David Ayer or the other schmuck are when I was 12 years old.
The lead actors are the face of the movie, always.
Comparing lead actors of a film to a screenwriter is like comparing a main course to a microwaved bread basket.
A lot of people know who Dennis Quaid is and what his beliefs are because he’s really famous and he’s constantly on Fox & Friends. Most people have zero idea who David Ayer and the other Zionist schmuck are.
Sounds like you know a lot more about Bollywood than Hollywood. Put down the naan & go back to work.
Almost ALL Van Damme, Stallone, Arnold films were founded, funded, Produced or Directed by Israeli money. Sorry to bust your bubble.
Glad I skipped out on them in the 90s then. Thanks for the info!
The only Schwarzenegger film I saw in the 90s was Conan the Barbarian. Didn’t even watch Jingle All The Way haha.
came across this gem of a film, no idea how I missed it when it was released

Have you watched Brawl in Cell Block 99?
Denzel is an amazing actor, legend & GOAT. 6 months back i started working on a sports project with him, typical film fashion theres always problems & delays. If we get this to the finish line i will let you know about a VIP party in NYC.
