neutral · AI labelView post →I just watched Man of the Year (2006) with Robin Williams and damn... The issues brought in this movie hit so accurately today. I hope reality will turn out to be as optimistic as this movie in the end.
positive · AI labelView post →- Tom Dobbs: I was thinking Bruce Springsteen as Secretary of State. What do you think the Secretary of Defense means when he says, "I think there's an open bar somewhere"? 🌊💙 ☮️ #PamelasTuesdayPolitics from Man of the Year film

If you're in bed with oil companies, how you can you be talking about fuel efficiency? I mean, that's like being a kosher pig farmer. 🌊💙 ☮️ #PamelasMondayPolitics from Man of the Year film

It’s a sexy movie—we’ve got a lot of sexy people in our movie. We have the Idris Elba.” 🔗 www.tiktok.com/t/ZTBB9jmNW/
neutral · AI labelView post →There's a movie with Robin Williams called "Man of the Year." You should look into it. It's pretty good. It's got election fraud using voting machines and billionaire CEO coverups. Guess what Trump was last year?
positive · AI labelView post →If you have not seen it- suggest a relevant movie with the late, very amazing, Robin Williams. It’s titled: Man of the Year. It ends with a great line. “Politicians, like diapers should be changed frequently and for the same reason.” SC needs a change: remove Graham and Fry!
positive · AI labelView post →So Robin Williams made this movie called Man of the Year that was basically this scenario of a comedian getting elected president, and I get not a lot of people saw the movie, but the whole point was the president should be someone actually qualified to run a country. www.imdb.com/title/tt0483...

neutral · AI labelView post →Scrolling tonight, I see a 2006 Robin Williams film called Man of the Year Synopsis: Political talk show host runs for president after saying he would in jest and in criticism of current leader. He wins because of computer glitch 🙂↔️🙂↔️ Nothing about this movie sounds even remotely funny 🫠🫠
negative · AI labelView post →it's not a good movie but Man of the Year with Robin Williams as a comedian who runs for president (came out in 2005 I think) actually did illuminate the Trump phenomenon for me in a weird way. his character in the movie is basically like a liberal version of Trump's appeal
neutral · AI labelView post →of course this is a reference to Donovan's Hurdy Gurdy Man appearing in the 2006 film Man of the Year starring Robin Williams
neutral · AI labelView post →Colbert near the top is a reminder that “Man Of The Year (2006)” is such a strange movie. Robin Williams playing Jon Stewart-type character should have been interesting post-Bush, but instead the whole movie (script, direction, music) feels like it was made in 1995 and released only on VHS.
negative · AI labelView post →He bought votes before the presidential election. Trump made an offhand comment about Musk's voting machines at a rally, too. Man of the Year was a movie released in 2006. It's a good watch. It's about faulty election computers. Who was man of the year last year?
positive · AI labelView post →in the words of the Robin Williams movie"Man of the Year", if it were unpatriotic to question the government, we would still be English.
neutral · AI labelView post →Man of the Year, a much better movie than I think anyone expected it to be. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Man_of_...
positive · AI labelView post →did you know that Man of the Year, the movie starring Robin Williams as a comedian who runs for president, prominently used Hurdy Gurdy Man the year before Zodiac? if I ever got to meet David Fincher this is what I would ask him about
neutral · AI labelView post →Reminiscent of the plot for Robin Williams’ movie: Man of the Year
neutral · AI labelView post →Small correction: The quote is actually NOT from Mark Twain. It most likely originates from Paul Harvey or Tom Blair, even though they might not be the original source of the quote (and it was made famous by Barry Levinson in the 2006 film "Man of the Year")

neutral · AI labelView post →I would have voted for this man. Just like his movie "Man of the Year"

positive · AI labelView post →Also having an off Friday, Mercury must be in the microwave. Have you watched the 2005 Robin Williams movie “Man of the Year” I rewatched it with my partner cause it’s election season here
neutral · AI labelView post →I like how this film "Man of the Year" said we elected a comedian to be the president of the USA as a satirical what if on the whole US political. Then they actually voted for an idiot to be the 45 and 47 President of the USA a decade later. 💀
positive · AI labelView post →"Man of the Year" - Robin Williams movie.
neutral · AI labelView post →Funny, we also saw a Robin Williams movie for our first date… We saw Man of the Year.
neutral · AI labelView post →Ever read a book or watch a movie thinking it’ll be a light, fun little thing? But then you get into it and turns out it’s actually quite deep and has a message and gets into some things? The movie Man of the Year with Robin Williams was like that for me, and so was this book. 1/
positive · AI labelView post →"Man of the Year" with Robin Williams. I said it once, I'll say it again: it's the movie we need right now.
positive · AI labelView post →The comedies Williams made after the “serious movie” turn (RV, Man of the Year, License to Wed) are all very weird
neutral · AI labelView post →Of course Felon Trump did...makes it harder to say no. As for me, I'll be watching movie "Man of the Year", it's more realistic. I'll be letting our bark-collared Media recount festivities over rest of the week. Curious to see how they all do and how long they beat a dead horse for "nuance".
positive · AI labelView post →Man of the Year. Robin Williams’ performance all throughout the movie has him come out unsinged. as a result, but he has given virtually nothing to work against. The movie takes forever and ever to get to its point points and its plot. A lot of the jokes are lame. And it’s aged horribly.
negative · AI labelView post →You know, we watched a Robin Williams film from 2006 called Man of the Year and most of the plot could be from...yesterday...all of last year?
neutral · AI labelView post →I have a huge fondness for Man of the Year - I thought his tenderness really shown through, and the cast is wonderful. Also by Barry Levinson, who directed Good Morning, Vietnam. youtu.be/3qbhKVxPEzs?...
positive · AI labelView post →Man hes done so many of my fav films. I would have to say probably Bicentennial Man and Man of The Year. Though i do love the imagery of What Dreams May Come. And the best Jumanji film. Still miss him every year i see his media.
positive · AI labelView post →That quote was him? I do remember this- right at 50 seconds in the trailer from "Man of the Year". I also love the line comparing politicians to diapers. 🤣
neutral · AI labelView post →Lmfao!! It makes me think of the movie Man of the Year (1995)
neutral · AI labelView post →In the film Man of the Year, Robin Williams summed it up perfectly: "The president wants to pass an amendment banning same-sex marriage. Anybody who's been married knows it's always the same sex!" But yeah, the idiots all up in arms about stopping it are just idiots.
neutral · AI labelView post →Jon Stewart running for president would be as disappointing as Man of the Year, the Robin Williams movie about not-Jon Stewart running for president
negative · AI labelView post →Have you ever seen the movie Man of the Year? It's a great movie. Laura Linney and Robin Williams. Political Comedy. There's a problem with the voting machines. They're discounting votes for the wrong party. She tries to tell the CEO, but they try to silence her instead. Teams up with the winner.
positive · AI labelView post →Oh, for sure, but something being a bomb doesn't always mean it's bad. The Big Bus is a good example, because it's a farce spoofing on disaster movies, playing on the tropes of the film. In fact, the subject of today's Bowler Brim podcast was an all-star bomb: Man of the Year (2006).
neutral · AI labelView post →Tomorrow, stay inside out of the storms and listen to a new episode, in which you'll hear all about the 2006 film Man of the Year, starring Robin Williams, and I'll put a different look on it than you've probably ever heard before. And you'll hear a bit about Williams' life & career.
neutral · AI labelView post →Bruno Kirby was one of those great character actors that just nailed every scene he was in. It's like having the NBA 6th Man of the Year in your film.
neutral · AI labelView post →Anyone see the Robin Williams movie 'Man of the Year'? I just put it on and playing with ROSIE .
neutral · AI labelView post →Just last night I watched the movie “Man of the Year” with Robin Williams. Very entertaining and I saw a few parallels to this current election.
positive · AI labelView post →utterly tangent to the point but now i am once again thinking about the godawful movie Man of the Year
negative · AI labelView post →Watching “Man of the Year” and I’ll give this movie credit… they managed to make Robin Williams unfunny. Didn’t know that was possible.
negative · AI labelView post →So I am awake. Gant sleep so decided to look up a movie I haven't seen in YEARS. Man of the Year. Robin Williams, Lewis Black, Jeff Goldblum I remember being in the film and tried to ask "what if Jon Stewart became president?" I wonder people's thoughts on this movie NOW with new social context.
neutral · AI labelView post →we're bringing back the movie Man of the Year starring Robin Williams baby
positive · AI labelView post →OTD 20 years ago, "Man of the Year" starring Robin Williams was released. Great movie. I think it's the kind of film we need right now.
neutral · AI labelView post →I am watching the movie “Man of the Year.” Wouldn’t it be wonderful to have such a candidate as Tom Dobbs? We need truth, honesty, and accountability.
positive · AI labelView post →I get why a lot of people refer to the movie "Idiotocracy" to explain this phase of reality, but I can't figure out why they also don't refer to "Man of the Year" with Robin Williams...which is as equally absurd.
neutral · AI labelView post →I'm not sure I've ever seen Air Force One (not my genre), but I feel like pretty much every White House/President movie or show feels antiquated compared to the current alt universe we're in now... Except Wag the Dog and Man of the Year... Barry Levinson understood the assignment 😆
positive · AI labelView post →I get this movie and Man of the Year (2006) confused
neutral · AI labelView post →It’s be like the Robin Williams movie “Man of the Year”, and we even have tampered voting machines from the last election! Life imitates art…
neutral · AI labelView post →Currently watching the Barry Levinson film "Man of the Year" with Robin Williams. The movie is from 2006, but Barry is uncannily spot-on with a billionaire-owned voting system cover-up. Trying to distract myself from our country's chaos... this may not have been the best choice but good so far.
