All this tedious nonsense just to humanize and idiot Rush Limbaugh supporter?


I saw this movie, all 4 parts, 4 hours of it, last night. It was semi-interesting, but fairly depressing and nothing really engaging or exciting. All about these different depressive personality types, and histories of suicide, and mental illness ... setting itself up as if it was leading somewhere ... until at the very last minute Bill Murray steps in as the romantic interest and they get in his car to out to dinner and the radio has Rush Limbaugh ranting about feminism.

If you knew anything it would be that someone who listens to Rush Limbaugh is a certain kind of person, the opposite of what Bill Murray's image is, so basically they are using this crappy, boring movie as a commercial to attempt to humanize the very people who are some of the most dehumanizing creeps in America.

I don't see this big, sudden change which basically makes the whole 3 hour prologue of the movie useless and pointless mentioned in any of the reviews or discussions. And it is still so odd that people talk about Hollywood's Leftist agenda. What a waste of time to watch this idiotic movie.

Concerning Rush Limbaugh: What an absurd comment. Murray was playing a certain character who happened to like listening to Rush. It's called character development. For all anyone knows, maybe he did it just to mock Rush.
