"If Rian Johnson wants to make a statement about money and powerful institutions, why not point the mirror at Hollywood? Nothing more frustrating than watching a movie that feels like it actually wasted your time."
The new Knives Out is terrible. · u/tent_mcgee · ↑65 · 2025-12-15
"You can tell when Rian Johnson wrote this that he felt so good about understanding all the sides of the cultural sphere. A true Twitter veteran."
"He's just a theater kid that got told he was too ugly to be on stage so he decided to get revenge by directing awful films that scream theater montage despair. He and Adam Mackey are the same shit, obsessed with trying to please everyone (left wing) by criticizing what's plain obvious is wrong."

"They gave Rian Johnson like 600 million dollars to make the Knives Out movies. I like the Knives Out movies, but that's just a stupid ass investment."
