    I watched One battle after another late last night just because last movie on Oscar noms i missed. Well..... Seems like it was written and made before today. Lockjaw ( Penn) is Bovine. To a tee, I wonder if that was intent. Well played Sean Penn.

    If you tolerate Trump/Epstein authoritarianism, then your children will be next. That's the message from Paul Thomas Anderson's epic One Battle After Another, in which a once-radical father (DiCaprio) seeks to protect his daughter from Col.

    Loved the film. It felt to me that Lockjaw and co. were just one tentacle of the whole ICE/DHS monster - that there would be other groups in other geographies, with other axes to grind. Because it was personal to him - he was steering the operations towards his own private aim.

    Yes! I saw OBAA before I knew who Bovino was. My analogue for Lockjaw when I watched the movie was RFK Jr (his garbage disposal voice, sexual deviancy and haggard face) but when Bovino became a newsworthy guy I could only think of him as Lockjaw

    Mighty Max Tangles with Lockjaw! Big Red the Lumberjack is a weird opponent - an axe-wielding psycho wearing scold’s bridle whilst locked in a crate in a barn (maybe based on a film?) - but is super fun. The cartoon made him an ancient violence demon imprisoned in a tree instead #vintagetoytuesday

    He absolutely has to get the nom! He would have been my pick for best supporting until Sean Penn's Lockjaw, but Lindo's performance in Sinners is one of the best pieces of acting of the year and for me one of the strongest highlights of the film.

    Highly recommend "One Battle After Another". It's an extraordinary film. DiCaprio and Penn are standouts. Anderson masterfully exposes their moral ambiguity. Both prophetic and disturbing, it’s a demanding yet essential watch. If Penn doesn't win an Oscar for Lockjaw, There Will Be Blood!

    Best acting in that movie was Penn as the unhinged Col Lockjaw. It really had me thinking Lockjaw is Bovino, Bovino is Lockjaw and the "Christmas Explorers" club or whatever it was called, is the Heritage Foundation. We get thru the next couple of years, One Battle After Another y'all...

    My favorite things regarding #OneBattleAfterAnother ⚠️SPOILERISH⚠️ The 2 major white male players (Bob and Lockjaw) are arguably the two most ineffective characters of the entire film; ON PURPOSE. Every major plot movement is facilitated, heavy-lifted, or completed by a minority. Very telling.

    The parallel between Lockjaw and Bovino who emerges well after this movie was written and shot is really something. Both are useful idiots who are used as pawns for the people truly in control only to get tossed aside when they’re not useful anymore.

    I love Sean Penn’s acting, but his performance as Lockjaw in One Battle After Another did not deserve the Oscar. It was one of his worst. . It wasn’t even the best supporting actor role in that film (Benicio Del Torro was). It should have gone to Stellan Skarsgard. His performance was beautiful.

    🛡️ Tiny Men with Guns: The Sequel? Left: Colonel Lockjaw, the movie villain straight out of “One Battle After Another” – obsessed with borders and badges. Right: Gregory Bovino, real-life Border Patrol boss, channeling that same energy in Trump’s immigration crackdowns. When fiction meets reality…

    This film is incredible and incredibly pertinent to our present divided society. Teyana Taylor as Perfidia Beverly Hills is a revelation. The entire cast was perfect for each individual role they played. Sean Penn as Colonel Steven J. Lockjaw is as far away from Jeff Spicoli as a role could be.

    (I know I, at least, was thinking of bell hooks a lot during the film. Specifically "Eating the Other: Desire and Resistance." Lockjaw acts a lot like the men in hooks' essay, which feels intentional and important to contest with.)

    One Battle After Another - There's a version of this movie that makes del Toro's character the main and DiCaprio the supporting. This would avoid the pitfalls of the first 20 mins. plus you get Colonel Lockjaw vs. Sergio. That's how this film could've gone truly toe-to-toe with Sinners.

    Second, cut the pointless Christmas Club epilogue and give that space to a real exchange between Bob and Lockjaw (if you saw the movie, you know where to put this). There would have been a chance to put some depth into each one's motives and values, would really elevate the movie so much.

    I don’t consider myself a big fan of Sean Penn movies, but when I watch one, I’m struck by how top tier he is. He’s absolutely mesmerizing as Col. Lockjaw in #OneBattleAfterAnother. It’s an amazing role, anyway, but he’s almost psychotically good in it. Fantastic movie, too. #filmsky

    Saw One Battle After Another yesterday (in glorious 70mm at the gorgeous Oriental Theatre in Milwaukee.) Mind still abuzz. The acting. An angry call versus a calm, casual evacuation. Lockjaw’s walk. The humor. Two kids on a radio. The hilly chase. The hope. Can’t wait to see it again.

    I couldn't buy into One Battle After Another. After thirty minutes it felt like a montage of backstory that was going to lead into an actual movie, but then it never did. Also the bit where the maniac-sociopath gives Lockjaw a boner at gunpoint was laughably stupid. Was it supposed to be so stupid?

    5 mins into this movie, Lockjaw is eye-fucking & licking his lips at Perfidia while she points a gun at him. She tells him to get an erection “since we playin”. This is an erotic fantasy for him & when Perfidia realizes that, she’s into it.

    I think I've figured out what inspired Penn's performance as Colonel Lockjaw... It seems the choice he's made, as an actor, is to mostly embody the spirit of Elmer Fudd, but as though he were a real, human man w/ a profound sex addiction. It, uh, doesn't work for me 😬 #OneBattle #FilmSky #Film

    Benicio's not in the French 75. That kinda just proves how vague the movie is about revolutionary causes, that it presents his totally separate operation as spiritually aligned. And Lockjaw is not specifically the enemy of the French 75, he inserts himself into it because he's horny.

    It took me a few scenes to stop looking/waiting for the bits of the book I hoped were in there and instead just enjoy the film that I was watching. Can't quite articulate why without more thought but I think Steve Lockjaw works better on film than SP trying to do Brock Vond would have done.
