I Think I'm Going to Pass on 'Civil War'
I like a good disaster movie. A lot of the science fiction movies I loved as a kid (and still do) were really just disaster movies with aliens in them. Earth vs. the Flying Saucers has some fantastic scenes of Washington, DC being destroyed by the titular flying saucers. This was essentially remade in the 90s as Independence Day which features a fantastic shot of a saucer blowing up the White

What We Can Learn From the Civil War Movie
Jessica Carpenter is the Chief Marketing Officer at BridgeUSA (Mixed). She has a Center bias.
Disturbing. Unsettling. A warning. That’s how I would describe the new civil war film out of A24 studio.
Last week, I had the opportunity to take a first look at this movie depicting what a modern day American civil war would look like. And just so you know, it didn’t pull any punches

The Civil-Rights Showdown Nobody Remembers
When the Supreme Court handed down its decision in Brown v. Board of Education, on May 17, 1954, it was big news. The Times gave the story banner headlines and ten pages of coverage.

Many people probably anticipated the outcome, although maybe not that the opinion would be

‘Civil War’ and Its Terrifying Premonition of American Collapse
Going into Alex Garland’s astonishing new film, “Civil War,” I expected to be irritated by the implausibility of its premise. I’m not talking about the idea that America could devolve into vicious internecine armed conflict. That seems possible, if not probable. In one 2022 poll, 43 percent of Americans said they thought a civil war within the next decade was at least somewhat likely. I wouldn
