He’s getting a bit too worked up over it, but you guys are pretty damn stupid lol. He’s saying it’s not true that he smokes newports and that the joke is altering reality to fit a racial stereotype (whether that stereotype is true or not).

If your media can’t compete, just say that.

The scene with Hanks with his glass with ice in his hand talking to his buddy gets me every time.

Here asshole. That’s from HIS WIFE. Hope that’s credible.
>What brand does Obama smoke?
>Michelle Obama told the Chicago Sun-Times in 2004 that Obama smoked Marlboros. While he's still thought to prefer Marlboro Reds, he also admitted that he "bummed" cigarettes during his 2008 campaign, so he may not be a Reds purist.

Lots of people love cult films as I do so you’re definitely not crazy for liking that film a lot.

Reply to What are some horror movies that enjoy critical acclaim beyond the genre (i.e., are considered to be great movies overall, not just respected by horror fans)? by FeatheredVentilator
The Innocents (1961)
I was expecting it to be kind of goofy but Jesus that was unsettling. Great plot, fantastic acting. Not about what it initially seemed to be about.
I later learned it was a popular movie at the time that was based on a popular book from the late 1800s.
I looked it up and it was nominated at Canne in 1962, and was nominated for a BAFTA.
I don't know why horror tends to be overlooked, and I'm sure there is a complex and historical answer.

I think Houseguest (1995) was longer.

That is 100% a pack of Marlboro cigarettes. He is pulling one out.
There are plenty of articles on his smoking habit it wasn’t a well kept secret. You can do your own homework.

No worries. I'm the same way. I'll go down a rabbit hole so deep I lose track, and then I can't find my way back until I least expect it lol

It’s almost worse that you’re offended on behalf of cigarettes 😂

You do know there are Newport Reds right?

I'm watching the movie as I type this. The entire thing is a satire - filled with stereotypes and cliches. It takes shots at Jews. Muslims. White people. Black people. Straight people. Gay people.
It's intentionally inappropriate. It's a comedy!

I'm looking for it now. So frustrating that I cannot remember exactly where I saw it, especially since it was not that long ago.

are you really gonna double down on providing a “source” that obama only smoked marlboros and call someone a “fn idiot” when your “source” not only doesn’t mention any specific brand but also explicitly states that a white house spokesperson advised that the thing obama is holding in the photo is not a pack of cigarettes?
to quote another person in this thread, please stop it with this nonsense.

You don’t even know me. You hate me because of what you’ve convinced yourself I represent which is also incorrect. Because you’re not very smart.
I’m not a progressive far left crying bleeding heart liberal. I’m pissed they made a lazy stupid joke as a cigarette smoker.
Have a good night.

The Menu has one scene similar but thats about it. Still a great horror/comedy movie overall though.
