    A Few Good Men, The West Wing, The Newsroom, Moneyball, The Social Network, Steve Jobs, and one article in Vanity Fair where he excoriated Trump. One of the all-time greats.

      So he basically just went along with other aloof, non critical thinkers in Hollywood and just piles on with the smearing schoolyard jeering. What a hero.

      @jacobvarney23 Před 4 lety

      @@Wolfsheim23 people can be described as "aloof, non-critical thinkers" on both sides: it depends on your biases. Sorkin stating an opinion doesn't pile on anything with "smearing schoolyard jeering," because he's just stating an opinion. He didn't go along with "non-critical thinkers" when he made the first show about politics, "The West Wing" in 1999 when nobody else would make a show about politics. Think before you speak.

      @@jacobvarney23 Yes Westwing is also FICTION btw... Excorciating Trump is 99% of the time based on Rhetoric. Just parroted speech from some other Lemming that doesn't know the context of what took place and really doesn't care to know because it's all so cool and trendy to hate on Trump. You think he spent a minute to research any bad things he hears about Trump. I think not.

    You can always count on anything Sorkin to have lots of good lines. Molly's Game was an excellent movie, super enjoyable whether you know anything about poker or not. It's sobering and fascinating at the same time how making small bad choices can mushroom.

    Oh yes, and the real Molly bloom, is absolutely smoking hot.. *Quite a change for the real life person to be a million times better looking than the movie star playing them.*

    The last closing statement by Conan was super racist. He implicitly exclaimed that Japanese pornography is creepy and American is not. So pathetic, ridiculous and irresponsible statement made out of context. I fail to see any connection between this stupid statement and interview with Aaron Sorkin.
