It's not even like Hollywood has ever mythologized the average WW2 vet looking like this. It's almost always been scrawny hayseeds, Newsies-ass ethnic kids and Tom Hanks. Oh sure you get your leading men but he's always surrounded by 110lb buck privates.

Putting groypers in charge of all public government communication while barring soldiers from going to any college with a liberal arts program and you quickly get into situations where no one in a press shop can remember the word "presumed."

James Cameron, the genius who made The Terminator & Terminator 2 figured out the whole secret to the 80s & 90s, the ultimate fantasy for Americans, and it can be summed up like this:
"I have to blow you away now because I feel strongly that it's in both our best interests."
You see the beauty here? What happens in both movies? A bodybuilder guy drops buck nekkid out of the sky sent from the future to waste our savior. So we have to KILL the Terminator before HE kills John Connor the man who will save the world from nuclear destruction in 1997.
So what kind of story does this set up? A story where, no matter WHAT you do no matter WHO you step on and no matter HOW MANY people you kill you can NEVER BE WRONG. Because if you don't do what you have to do THE WORLD WILL END. Because there's one person more important than The Terminator and that's the person TRYING TO KILL The Terminator.
This covers all situations. Divorce? Sorry babe gotta save the world. Slow service at Denny's? You're delaying my mission so I think I'll grab you by the throat turn you upside down and grind your skull into a Potato Mexicana Plate. Oh you need to see my ID? Here it's in the form of 200 shotgun pellets in your STOMACH. It's the ultimate way to say, "Your existence doesn't fit in with my career goals right now so please act like you never existed."
The Terminator is like [redacted.] You don't really LIKE him but you know EXACTLY what he'll do at all times. He has a goal. He mows down anybody between himself and that goal. And he'll keep repeating that same pattern until something drastic happens like getting shot through the head with a Cruise missile and dumped into a vat of molten steel. After that he MIGHT stop.
With "Terminator 2," Jimbo Cameron figured out how to live out the Terminator Fantasy AND the Anti-Terminator Fantasy. You get to KILL the Terminator and BE the Terminator at the SAME TIME. It's GREAT. Ultra-super-mega-violence in order to create world peace. My kinda flick!
thinking about Joe Bob's original 1991 review of Terminator 2 and its statement on American life. Alt text has one important redaction.

This especially sucks because in the age of algorithms, shrinking cinemas and splintered realities the horror host format seems an ideal format for a shared and curated movie experience. More platforms and distributors should embrace it.

Yes. And endlessly mining real life tragedy comes at the opportunity cost of not making more shows where a polycule of horny doctors have to stop sewer gators from attacking a gender-inclusive wet t-shirt contest.

So, just picking apart some of the illiterate media references here:
-Walter White- Drug dealer threatening his wife.
-Kylo Ren. Bad guy. Leader of a Space Nazi army. Literally the bit where he relentlessly bombards the #1 space antifascist of all time TO ZERO EFFECT ON TARGET.

In environment where nominees are likely to be confirmed even with 98% of Ds against Mullin is almost a welcome choice. He's wildly stupid, it gets him out of the Senate where he might have infested American life for decades and he'll maybe last a year as toxic & forgotten as every other ex-DHS sec.

Prefacing this by saying Iran's brutalities in its own borders and against Iraqis, Syrians, Israelis, Palestinians have bordered on genocidal...
