    You should check out some American movies. Those are also pretty wild

      My favourite line from any of the Grand Theft Auto games is from a radio ad for some movie that ends with “Rated PG for Patriotic Garbage”

      As an American, American jingoism in films does make me laugh. Like we are the only ones who can save the world.

      Does Russia have films like that?

        Well, there’s books like that. The idea seems to be that the problem with Nazis wasn’t the whole genocide thing, but rather the fact that they invaded Russia. So let’s do this: go back in time with modern equipment, ally with Hitler, and march on London and bomb Washington.

      Start from American movies, then add a bunch of historical rewriting and fighting Nazis everywhere and you’re getting close to Russian level movies from what I’ve heard.
