I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

I love heist films.
8 female characters vs 11 male characters in Ocean's 11? The gender gap is real!

Also, I can't wait to read the opinions of RM's massively diverse readership on this issue.

Was she any good in Battleship?
The movie is garbage but she was fine.

I think this is the perfect type movie to do as a girl power kind of remake.

Battleship is an instant classic and Rhianna was the star.

The backlash against the latest ghostbusters was ridiculous. One of the many reasons I soured on the alt-right. I care as little about this film as any* of the other Ocean's films.
