The video that Swift screened just premiered online and pays homage to the days of old Hollywood:

The Rock movie looked okay, I might watch it later when I can do it for free at the comfort of my own home.

The Rock is as good an actor as Stallone. Both are rich. Who will criticize?

The only “Swift” that interests me are the Swift Boat Warriors.

Leftist reviewers are portraying One Battle as an anti-MAGA film

“””for bringing her brilliance and magic to movie theatres this weekend,”””””

What is a movie theater? I vaguely remember going to them years ago.

$33 million tops box office. I suppose that’s somewhat decent if the costs to make it were modest but overall I’m thinking this is more of a sinking of theatrical movies in general. The less money overall that Hollyweird is making the better IMHO. Their influence is thus also waning.

AMC’s CEO Adam Aron said in a statement. “Her vision to add a cinematic element to her incredible album debut was nothing less than a triumph.”

I was wondering why our local theater had "Taylor Swift" on their marquee and I'm not sure how much of a visionary she is, I recall watching both of The Beatles movies, "A Hard Days Night" and "Help" in a theater in the 1960s.

I really like it! I was not a fan of her musically, but her recent material is warming me up to her.

I have never heard one line of a Taylor Swift song, nor have any desire to do so. Maybe she has a good voice; I wouldn’t know.

She endorsed Kamala and denounced Trump.

I resent her being discussed on this site.

Her voice is “ok”, her music is pretty generic, her lyrics are abysmal.

Stallone is a conservative and well loved by his fans. The Rock is a woke clown who puts his finger in the wind and caves on every issue. Stallone has staying power whereas The Rock doesn't really have a loyal constituency.

A decent song. May inspire her Swiftiez to read “Hamlet”.

I kid, I kid. They will hit up ChatGPT.
