Press tour talk is very funny because I just saw James Wan describe Jessica Chastain as the "secret weapon" of Other Mommy. She's the star of the movie James!

is it breaking embargo if people say exactly which Sorkinisms are used in The Social Reckoning
We’ve had to listen to some very unimpressive TDs talk shit about public sector workers needing to prove their worth and up their game. Meanwhile the sight of an almost-empty greyhound track and the yelping of mistreated animals gets them humming the national anthem as a tear rolls down their cheek

Apart from the Johnny Depp of it all Ebeneezer is marketing itself as A Christmas Carol Like You've Never Seen It Before and then in the trailer the Like You've Never Seen It Before is drab lighting and "well that just happened" jokes
