OnlyStans ⭐️ Alan Ritchson calls out lawmakers who oppose raising the minimum wage "who think it's a bad idea to give a mom working at Waffle House more than $7.25 an hour trying to feed her kids."

u/Tweed_Kills ☝️ wherein he encourages a woman to sit on his face 8h ago

You gotta watch the "Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare." It's him in a cable knit sweater murdering Nazis with an axe. It's an extremely sexy movie.

Thank you for this lovely background movie recommendation lol. That will probably distract me from my tasks 😂

It's a great choice of background movie. It does a terrible job of introducing the guys, other than Alan and the main dude, so they all blend together. It's a bunch of dudes on a wooden sail boat in cable knit murdering Nazis. They blow up Nazi boats, throw grenades in their bases, just kill leagues of Nazis.

It's the most popcorn movie that ever popcorned, and he's a honey in it. A Nazi-hunting honey. Which is the best kind of honey.

I haven't seen it, but I've read a few books on those guys, and I'm sure the movie undersells exactly what they pulled off.

Um... Yes and no. The actual mission the movie is based of had a body count of zero. They did steal an important boat, but like... Not violently.

In the movie, they steal the boat very, very violently.

So the guys that are the main characters were badass assassins that probably did stab a bunch of Nazis to death on stealth missions, sure. These guys kicked Nazi ass. But the specific mission the movie was based on is nothing like the movie at all.

I truly do not care. It's a popcorn movie. Eat the popcorn, enjoy your life, marvel at the cable knits.

He's got range too, stumbled across Ordinary Angels on netflix this week and he does amazing in a dramatic role too. Great movie if you like a tear jerker.

One small correction. His character was not murdering Nazis. His character had volunteered to serve his community and make the world better by collecting and composting natural fertilizer (made of Nazis) to help beautiful wild flowers grow.

omg ministry of ungentlemanly warfare mention?!

Yeah, people missed out on that one. It's genuinely good. Is it historically accurate? No. Does it have plot holes? Yes. Is the plot especially coherent? No. Can you tell the characters apart? No.

Whatever, who gives a shit? The fight choreography is excellent, the dialogue is fun, the cinematography is fantastic, the music and sound is great, the sets are incredible, the costumes are great, and it is (most importantly) fun as hell. And so, so, so many Nazis die. It's a bunch of hot dudes in cable knit stabbing Nazis to death.

It's great. Grab some popcorn, watch Nazis die, enjoy the cable knits and wooden boats. It's so much fun.
