Love the film, but this...would not be the week to sell a Joseph Kahn movie to anyone

Kahn has been behaving a bit childishly on social media recently, and yesterday published
this charming, totally not second-hand-embarrassing little article in THR

He's become an out & out MAGA guy on social media, no two ways about it. Anti-vax, anti-union, etc - gets quote tweeted by Sasha Stone a lot, if that tells you anything.

Wasn't aware that he had gotten that political (though I had seen his complaints about IATSE when making Detention). I just saw people clowning on this article and some assorted blowhard things he had said. Seems like a classic case of "never quite making it" turning into bitter, aimless resentment against everyone who has "made it"

Had a bizarre post explaining that he didn't like The Odyssey because it's for adults and that's boring, and that he's looking forward to Avengers because they'll make Happy Meal toys for that one. I don't think I like this guy on just about any level, but YMMV
