"Oh, fuck the future "
"No, Tony, you can't fuck the future. The future fucks you."
Welp.

Also seeing how H-wood machine (and Scientology) saps the life out of promising stars is pretty sad. #saturdaynightfever
As I've said a few time while watching older films set in NYC: this older NYC, I get. I can see the urge to move there and live life. The current one: no. The mood is not scrappy. The mood is... Very different. Cities change. #saturdaynightfever
Also this family probably owns their house and it's not worth 2million dollars #saturdaynightfever
I remember dating a dude who lived in NYC when I lived in Chicago (2005-ish) & he took me to meet his parents & their house was like...half a brownstone and I was like "This is...half a house?" And he said, "it's worth 3 million dollars." Nooooot my town. #saturdaynightfever
Also while I remember Young Travolta, vaguely, it remains the music of the film that stuck with me #saturdaynightfever
Omg them all hitting each other at dinner #saturdaynightfever
He works on his hair a long time, and his dad hits it! Tho I was only spanked three times in my life (all before age 5) one of the many cultural changes I appreciate from my time to now is how corporal punishment used w/kids is no longer seen as ok or normal #saturdaynightfever
Whoaaaa shit, the slurs. #saturdaynightfever
I don't know why folks hate disco. It's grown on me. #saturdaynightfever
I mean. They basically built an entire film (and a sequel, which you all said I shouldn't watch) out of the fact that John Travolta can dance #saturdaynightfever
It's 1977 and the (white! only!) women characters are treated abysmally, but for some reason men decided in the 90s that we had "gone too far" and needed to be put "back in our place." Ummm #saturdaynightfever
I was on call recently w/a producer about a show I'm pitching and they were like "you know, post-me-too we just don't see this kind of sexism in the workplace" and my head nearly fucking exploded. "Me-too" is the Pill/Roe v. Wade of the 10's. Society forgets #saturdaynightfever
I mean after Roe v. Wade and the Pill folks with a uterus felt they were fucking invulnerable. And here we are, set to lose Roe v. Wade in 2020 because ::gestures at Supreme Court and voting decisions in my state:: and time is a fucking circle #saturdaynightfever
Omg at the 1:05 mark there is a FRANK discussion about abortion. Called it fam! #saturdaynightfever
