Hasan Minhaj: Off with His Head (2024)
Psychopathic rants of a washed up comedian with added fake laugh tracks
Hasan Minhaj used to be funny, and I got excited when I saw the news that this stand-up special was being released, but when I watched half of it, I was completely disappointed!
It looks like after he lost the Daily Show gig, he developed mental issues. How were these psychopathic rants allowed on Netflix?
Ranting way too long about killing senior citizens so bigger houses become available for young people to buy.
And asking for elderly politicians like specifically like "Nancy Pelosi" and "RBG if she had survived" to be brought "into a shed and put bullets into their skulls" just like "they should've done to Tom Brady"
Only 10% of the audience is laughing, but the laugh tracks that were obviously added in post-production don't match the crowd's reaction.
A Man Called Otto (2022)
An example of racism in hollywood
The original story ( A Man Called Ove ) was based on the Swedish author's own family, and the Persian neighbor was based on his PERSIAN wife!
The American remake replaced Persian with Latino because they thought it's so unlikely to have a Persian neighbor in LA aka "Tehrangeles" ? Or just to avoid having a positive persian character in a Hollywood movie?
And somehow it's not the first time a movie starring Tom Hanks replace a Persian with another race.
In the movie The Terminal (2004) also starring Tom Hanks the movie was based on a real Persian person but they decided to invent a whole new country just to avoid having a positive Persian character.
Mister Tachyon (2018)
a boring Mockumentary
As much as I like sci-fi shows
If I wanted to watch a bunch of fictional stories presented as documentaries I would watch History channel instead!
