      I just don’t think Reagan is the draw he might have been once. You can’t rely on people old enough to have voted for him to fill all the movie seats.

        According to the YTer, it’s been in development for at least 10 years. Maybe a large segment of their pre-pandemic, antivax/antimask crowd couldn’t make it to the premier?

      Scott Stapp was able to escape the government agents that were trying to hunt him down to make this fine film?!

      Sorbo isn’t even in the trailer! He couldn’t find a clip of Sorbo to use! I would feel sorry for him if he weren’t a complete douchebag.

    I’m honestly a bit surprised Republicans didn’t preserve his body and put it on display, Lenin style.

        I wonder if they kept him out because they know he’s a walking red flag and wanted this to appear mainstream.

    I wonder what thanksgiving is like at the Quaid household. You’ve got Dennis making republican/chrisitian propaganda and Jack making The Boys where they rightfully analogize these people with nazis. Plus Meg Ryan who hasn’t been seen anywhere, and don’t forget crazy uncle Randy! A model American family lol.

        Anything about his general philosophy though… Decent person?

        I’m just weary these days of people quietly pushing odd agendas in innocuous ways in unrelated content, so I like to walk into a new person with a more detailed intro from someone who is already a fan. Otherwise you get things like, “This is the way to make the best brownies for a summer picnic. We’ll go through the recipe step by step and you’ll love these brownies! I love Summer, it’s a great time for picnics and also a great time to not get vaccinated and do a January 6th because what is a woman and CRT!”
