June 17, 2025 Mountainhead - HBO Max (Steve Carell and Ramy Youssef)
Sameem and Shabnam watch Mountainhead on HBO/Max; now we’re super into billionaires. We should protect them at all costs. Riiiiight.
Even if these 4 characters weren’t billionaires, the repellant is HIGH. Get us away from anyone f*cking with AI generated content created to control the masses. We make no qualms about what we think; as does Mountainhead itself. While the message falls flat on its face given today’s climate; at least billion dollar corporations like HBO/Max are placating us by releasing movies like this.
