„Eine Schlacht nach der anderen“ kommt bei Kritikern gut an, weil es „mit einer linken Sensibilität übereinstimmt“, sagt Bret Easton Ellis: „Dieser Film hat eine liberale Muffigkeit“

I don’t think this film is as popular with liberals as he’d like to think
The movie made racists look like the moronic idiots they are. Cons sad 🙁
I mean, it’s a 90s book with a flavor of 70s violent leftist activism pastiched all over “the present”.
Does he think it also aligns with rightist sensitivities because it depicts some John Birch level fantasies about law and power?
Another person who doesn’t understand that “Liberal” and “Leftist” are two different things.
Should I be the first to mention that Thomas Pynchon is a far better writer than Ellis?
Hardly a bad movie , i did enjoy it alot personally, but lets not pretend this is anything close to his best work.
not taking critiques from Ellis.
Dang you mean conservatives remain uncool no matter how loud and annoying they get trying to prove otherwise?
Yeah I can’t disagree that “There will be blood” was master piece.
This misses the entire point of the movie.
What a reactive and edgelord thing to say! Shocked pikachu.

And Bret Easton Ellis’ work has a try hard mustiness to it
Bret Easton Ellis was the first person I had been a fan of that I ever unfollowed on Twitter like 10+ years ago because his opinions on everything were absolutely ridiculous and just made me mad.
It’s hilarious that he simps so hard for the party whose members would stone him to death if they got the green light
It’s funny because ‘black twitter’ has been bashing the movie for its portrayal of black females. The movie doesn’t actually make the revolutionaries look very intelligent or moralistic. You can’t please everybody. I thought it was great.
Is Bret Easton Ellis relevant anymore? Haven’t heard that name forever.
I love American Psycho, and I think Bret Easton Ellis has been right about many things, but I don’t think he is right about this. I don’t even understand what the term leftist means the way talking heads use it despite how many times I hear it regurgitated.
Yeah and so what?
This is why Donna Tartt is the best out of the literary brat pack.
Selfhatinggaysayswhat?
Everything I’ve seen of this makes me want to see it
I don’t understand, is Ellis not a part of the left? He’s a gay dude who wrote one of the most scathing critiques of yuppy culture of all time, along with toxic masculinity lol
I guess I haven’t really followed his public persona much, but this is still surprising.
It’s because his daughter isn’t white isn’t it.
*Liberal Mustiness* is gonna be the name of my weed brand
As opposed to conservative traitors? Is that the view we should be promoting?
Well, not everything can star the theatrical powerhouse that is Kirk Cameron.
I’m not necessarily surprised that Bret is a conservative but you’d think he’d at least be smart enough to realize that writing American Psycho will be used against him when the time comes for conservatives to round him up
Boy oh boy did that guy forget where he came from
Assassin’s Creed had to scrap a new game that took place after the Civil War because it was too political to make the „KKK“ look like villains. That’s where we currently are as a society.
He calls it outdated somehow, but it’s not clear what he actually means by this. If anything it’s more forward-looking, like when are we going to see actual leftists liberating the ICE camps? He’s acting as if we’ve already moved on from this, but it hasn’t even started.
