    Watching Olympus Has Fallen because I just needed Gerald Butler for personal support in a slop action movie right now. Make progress with my general contractor today. Narrowing scope initially to critical stuff so not as many decisions compared to before.

    At the same time, "similar works" are protected and allowed as legal. For instance the 5000 spaghetti westerns that exist, or the entire formula for 80's slasher films. Or Ants and A Bugs Life, or Olympus Has Fallen and White House Down, or Deep Impact and Armageddon. So there has to be some sort of line somewhere that's a cut-off, but it might be hard to find. Musk wanted to use blade runner and was told to fuck off, so he made up his own dystopian Sci fi future scene. He most certainly…

    Watching the end of Olympus Has Fallen as the movie American President speaks to calm and reassure the public. It made me think that for the next 4 years, we will not hear anything positive, caring, calming, or inspiring from our POTUS. 😠

    OLYMPUS HAS FALLEN = WHITE HOUSE DOWN The former is a highly entertaining "90s action movie" with a budget. The latter is a highly entertaining action/comedy. I love both. (I also love LONDON and like ANGEL, but whatever.)

    G20 (2025) A good popcorn or airflight movie, not to be taken too seriously, or even slightly, for that matter. Along the same lines as Olympus Has Fallen with Viola Davis and Homelander. With plenty of action and explosions fun but very average.
