Hannibal Lecter also doesn't die in any of the books. The last one chronologically ends with him and Clarice Starling eloping to Europe and living happily ever after. I don't think there's a single version of any story about Lecter where he actually dies.
Sometimes I really want to like the guy but then I remember that he’s enabling and empowering the Christian right in every imaginable way and I sigh. Maybe in another life… 😔
@@utbunny Well it's not a ill conceived joke. The point he's making makes sense in the context of the argument, even though the context is ridiculous. To me that's what comedy is....
My dad used to work near Hollywood and he would Catch an AA meeting at lunch. A few times Anthony Hopkins was there and he shared. Introduced himself as Tony
"The late great Hannibal Lecter is a wonderful man ...." Seriously - I think Donnie believes that Hannibal actually existed in real life. Before he tragically died somehow. No, really, he thinks that. (Anthony Hopkins is Welsh I think. He's Labour if anything.)
I might be giving Trump's attention span too much credit, but it almost sounds like he watched Silence of the Lambs recently and only just discovered that "having a friend for dinner" is a double entendre, got overexcited and had to save it for one of his rallies, like only he cracked the secret code of the film. His references to Sunset Boulevard are almost like when you want to pretend like you've seen a film so you do a quick google to discover its notable quotes and hedge the conversation on that.
For extra irony one of the most direct inspirations for Hannibal Lecter was a plastic surgeon who dismembered his boyfriend that Thomas Harris interviewed in a Mexican prison.
OK, legit conspiracy theory: Is there any correlation between the movies Trump is obsessed with currently and a particular studio? because if there is I can almost guarantee you he's getting paid to talk about these movies.
I've heard that he watches movies but he often gets his kids or someone else to fast forward through all the talking so he can watch the violent bits, that's all he's interested in. He's probably only seen the violent and disturbing stuff in silence of the lamb because that's the sort of sick stuff he's into. Certainly lines up with the darkest things he's been accused of
"All my favorite movies, Dumb and Dumber, Blade, The Nun, ya see The Nun? Ooh, scary...scary. let's see uh, Final Destination, Turtles All the Way Down, The New World, Pride and Glory, Shazam, The Butterfly Effect, and Dark City. Was that 10? Ya, ok that's done. Now if you're having problems, intimate problems, I don't have these problems, I don't need anything like this, never have, never will, but if you have problems, try Blue Chew..."

I think Donald actually has brain worms
Assuming Trump even knows the movies were based on books is pretty bold.
In the TV show it's heavily implied he and Will died. But people survived all sorts of shit on that show.
Silence of the lamb has anyone ever seen silence of the lamb
LATE GREAT HANNIBAL LECTER 😂😂😂
The other time i remember him saying "the late great..." was referring to someone who's been dead for like a century, maybe it was Robert E Lee.
Trump is too fuckin funny to be in politics. Just let him do stand up comedy
Sometimes I really want to like the guy but then I remember that he’s enabling and empowering the Christian right in every imaginable way and I sigh. Maybe in another life… 😔
He's only funny because he's a clown in a serious position. Remove him from politics and he's just a sad, rambling old man.
@@utbunny old man rambles are hilarious, what are you talking about

I WANT MY MOVIE MADNESS
WE WILL NOT BE DENIED MOVIE MINDSET

Sir Anthony Hopkins is still alive, right? Or did that one Transformer movie actually kill him?
Trump is probably thinking of Rebel Moon.
"He's dead to me now. Killed his career like that Home Alone kid that got sassy with me."

Wow, you listened to the clip too? He's about to HAVE A FRIEND for dinner, do you get it?

I would love to sit down and watch all the Hannibal Lecter movies with Trump. We could eat hamburgers and listen to November Rain between movies.

Mads Mikkelsen is my Hannibal Lecter
Brian Cox is mine because I'm a fucking idiot
@@steverico3090 I tossed a coin on Mikkelsen and Cox - you're right, Cox was chilling in his banality.
@@steverico3090 technically he's Lektor
He’s fantasizing bout the final scene where Hannibal cold calls Clarice
