The Jeffrey Wells Thread

[Never Cursed]

You know, after nearly a year of silence in this thread, I had honestly and without exaggeration forgotten that Jeff Wells even existed. This is like hearing a song on the radio that you hadn't thought about in years and otherwise never, ever would have thought about again.

That's a good way to put it, though I will never forget him on account of him coming up to the NYFF ticket line last year and shoving his phone in my face to take a video

I might have even clicked over to HE again just for old times' sake, if not for the quip about "wokesters," which is a sure sign of what kind of audience he must be seeking these days.

Clicking into this thread after seeing it bumped never gives me the news I long to see.

I'm still open to Wells just being a real world Neil Breen character. Either that or Breen needs to do the inevitable film adaptation of Wells' life story.

One Battle After Another has been "defeated" for the Best Picture category.

It has lost the verbal battle because everyone realizes it’s a vessel of extreme-left POC girlboss agitprop, and that the rave reviews are basically about fuck-yeah political agreement first and artistic-cinematic admiration second.

Plus it goes against the expanding realization that hard-left wokey wackos have all but destroyed the Democratic party’s profile among middle-of-the-road voters, and that it’s time to pull back on that shit right now and for the wokeys to flee into the forest and stay there.

Ugh, I just love when some new Jeffrey quotes drop. Christmas came early again!

We can celebrate by listening to Dolly Parton's song "A Wokey Mountain Christmas"
