John Oliver: Of Course President Trump Wants to Buy Greenland

How to watch films Movies 2020 free online

John Oliver isnt surprised that President Trump wants to buy Greenland. On Sunday, Trump confirmed reports that he tasked administration officials with inquiring about purchasing the autonomous Danish country, and on Last Week Tonight, Oliver picked a hilarious way to frame that news: Of course he fucking did. Of coursehe did. Greenland is icy, distant and semi-autonomous its exactly Trumps type, he cracked, cutting to a picture of Trumps wife, Melania.

The Greenland story dominated headlines after it broke, even prompting Greenlands premier, Kim Kielsen, to issue a statement declaring the territory is not for sale. Oliver added, If you had two-and-a-half years in your office pool of when a world leader would have to tell Trump You cant buy our country, congratulations, youre a big winner.

Elsewhere on Last Week Tonight, Oliver criticized Trumps response to the widespread, ongoing protests in Hong Kong over a proposed extradition bill that some fear would undermine citizens rights.

The protest initially began over a bill that would allow China to extradite Hong Kong citizens to the mainland, which opponents feared were part of a larger plan to undermine Hong Kongs autonomy, Oliver said. He also noted that as protests have grown, the government has ramped-up its use of military vehicles, while protestors have taken to using lasers and umbrellas to disorient police.

Trump not only barely seems aware of whats going on there, [but] he also essentially gave China a green light to do whatever they want, he said, showing a clip of the presidents strange response to reporters on the issue. Well, somethings probably happening with Hong Kong because when you look at, you know, whats going on, theyve had riots for a long period of time, Trump says in the clip. And I dont know what Chinas attitude is. Somebody said that at some point theyre going to want to stop that, but thats between Hong Kong and thats between China, because Hong Kong is a part of China.

Oliver fired back, Theyre gonna want to stop that is exactly the wrong message to send to China right now. He continued, Trump effectively giving China a tacit endorsement to use force against protesters is unfortunately not remotely surprising he sends the wrong signals to other countries all the time. And until his term ends, were all just going to have to live with the fact that we now have a president who looks at Americas allies and says, Go fuck yourselves, looks at Russias interference in our election and says, No big deal and looks at Greenland and says, Two hundred bucks plus Don, Jr. final offer.'

The King Trailer: Timothee Chalamet Reluctantly Takes Throne as King Henry V

films Movies 2019 Online to Watch for free

Timothe Chalamets reluctant Prince Hal assumes the throne as King Henry V in the wake of his fathers death and soon questions his loyalties and duties in the teaser trailer for Netflixs The King.

Already I can feel the weight of this crown I wear, he confesses as tensions brew between members of his court. When he confides to Knight John Falstaff (portrayed by Joel Edgerton) that he is looking for people to trust, Falstaff gives him foreboding advice: A king has no friend. A king only has foes.

Directed by David Michd (Animal Kingdom), who cowrote the script with Edgerton, The King is based on William Shakespeares Henry IV Part 1, Henry IV Part 2 and Henry V, where Prince Hal had initially eschewed royalty to find his own way among the people. However, when his tyrannical father dies, Hal ascends to the throne during a chaotic time, inheriting war and political strife in the wake of his fathers death.

The King costars Sean Harris, Ben Mendelsohn, Robert Pattinson and Lily-Rose Depp. It will premiere during Venice Film Festival 2019, which runs August 28th through September 7th. Following its debut, The King is slated to stream on Netflix in the fall as well as screen in select theaters.

Watch Josh Gad and James Corden get Fired From Hobbs & Shaw

Streaming Movies 2020 Full Online

Josh Gad and James Corden have somehow never made a film together, which may be for good reason. In a segment on The Late Late Show, the duo reveal a series of failed movie acting jobs, including stints in Once Upon a Time In Hollywood and Hobbs & Shaw. While the actors may not have made the final cuts, they were certainly entertaining.

In the clip, Gad and Corden (a.k.a. Olaf and Peter Rabbit) discuss how theyve never worked together. And then one day the phone rang and it was Quentin, Corden says. He needed two hot guys for the leads, Gad adds. The duo take on the roles that eventually went to Leonardo DiCaprio and Brad Pitt, but Corden fails to light and then smoke the cigarette required for the job.

Just when we thought we were out of luck we got a phone call from the producers of the Fast and the Furious, Gad says, noting they were offered the leads in Hobbs & Shaw. That one goes even worse when they cant steal a car, so the actors are fired again. Thats show biz for you, Corden notes. One minute youre the cock of the walk, the next minute youre being escorted off the set with a backpack full of stolen iPhone chargers.

Im 99.8% sure that @JKCorden and @joshgad make a much cooler team than me and ol prepubescent, nasally Harry Potter Statham. @HobbsAndShaw https://t.co/WURyvlBgFj

Their final chance comes in the form of Toy Story 4, where they don costumes for Buzz Lightyear and Woody. It doesnt quite turn out as Gad and Corden expect, but at least no one is fired this time.

The other docuseries coming to FX include Pride, a six-part history of the fight for LGBTQ civil rights in America that will feature a different LGBTQ director helming each episode. There will also be a six-part adaptation of Errol Morris book A Wilderness of Error, about a Green Beret physician accused of killing his wife, and The Most Dangerous Animal of All, which is based on a book by Gary L. Stewart, who set out to find his biological father and discovered that man was likely the Zodiac Killer.

Free Movie Streaming Sites

President Donald Trump tries to evade the Squad the informal nickname for new U.S. representatives Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Rashida Tlaib, Ilhan Omar and Ayanna Pressley in a new West Side Story spoof from The Simpsons.

The 90-second clip is fittingly titled West Wing Story and boasts a parody of the musicals famous number, America. In it, Trump sings to a picture of the Squad, They shouldnt be in America/No one but me America/No taxes for me in America/This is my natural hair-ica! Soon Ocasio-Cortez, Tlaib, Omar and Pressley are chasing Trump through the White House, firing back, Youre Boris Johnson without the class/Cant wait to see you behind prison glass/Your nose is right up Putins ass/We say its time to impeach you fast.

The clip ends with Trump getting swept up in a can-can line featuring all the 2020 Democratic primary hopefuls, trying to keep pace with the high kicks before inevitably running out of breath. Whos the old man now? an animated Biden cracks.

The Simpsons will return for its 30th season September 29th on Fox.

The OA: Netflix Cancels Series After Two Seasons

films Movies 2019 Online to Watch for free

Netflix has canceled The OA, the mind-bending fantasy-drama series co-created by Brit Marling and Zal Batmanglij, four months after launching its second and assumedly final season. The show, which debuted in December 2016, starred Marling as Prairie Johnson, a once-blind woman who returns home after being missing for seven years, her sight mysteriously restored.

Cindy Holland, Netflixs head of original content, told The Hollywood Reporter that the network is incredibly proud of the programs 16 mesmerizing chapters. She added, [Were] grateful to Brit and Zal for sharing their audacious vision and for realizing it through their incredible artistry. We look forward to working with them again in the future, in this and perhaps many other dimensions.

Marling addressed the cancelation in a lengthy Instagram post, writing that she and Batmanglij are deeply sad not to finish this story. She continued, The first time I heard the news I had a good cry. So did one of our executives at Netflix who has been with us since the early days when we were sketching out Haps basement on the floor of our production office in Queens. Its been an intense journey for everyone who worked on and cared about this story.

Batmanglij was more succinct in his social media eulogy, writing, The OA (2016-2019).

In 2017, Marling spoke to The Hollywood Reporter about the shows long-term vision and scope.From the very beginning when we were on our own daydreaming a story, we definitely thought, How can we construct something that, many seasons out, has a satisfying end? So there is an end and there is an answer to every riddle, and nothing is done to just be sound and fury going nowhere. It all goes somewhere. And as to whether or not we get to tell that, I certainly hope that we do. There is a place that season two already begins in our minds and a place in which it ends.

Best Movies and TV to Stream in September: The Politician, Transparent Musicale Finale, and Wu-Tang

How to watch films Movies 2019 free online

On Netflix, Zach Galifianakis extends a Funny or Die sensation to feature length; Ryan Murphy makes a splash with a cutthroat political series; Sacha Baron Cohen takes leave of TV for a more serious turn; and Booksmart breakout Kaitlyn Dever gets on the true crime bandwagon alongside Toni Collette and Merritt Wever. Meanwhile, Hulu mines drama from the rise of the Wu-Tang Clan and confronts the bitter truth of the Harvey Weinstein takedown, while Amazon has the top-secret new project from BoJack Horsemans creative team. Heres what youll be streaming in September.

Between Two Ferns: The Movie (Netflix, Sep. 20th)
How does one sculpt three-minute morsels of online cringe comedy in which Zach Galifianakis awkwardly grills celebrities while flanked by decorative flora into a feature film? Take the shoestring-budgeted public access show on the road, for starters. Things get meta as Galifianakis, playing the same off-kilter version of himself as in the webseries, convinces none other than Will Ferrell to give him a network talk show. But first, hell have to trek across America tracking down interview subjects word is that Peter Dinklage, Keanu Reeves, and David Letterman made the cut to seal the deal. Q&A sessions have never been so exquisitely uncomfortable.

Creepshow (Shudder, Sep. 26th)
In 1982, Stephen King joined forces with George Romero for an antic anthology film collecting five short tales of the macabre, then again in 1987 for a sequel with three more. This spinoff series adds another twelve to the total, albeit without the participation of the original creators. But a King yarn provides a basis for a couple segments, and theyve lined up a murderers row of writers to adapt horror classics and pen their own originals. Gas-mask-clad Nazi commandants, shambling reanimated corpses, and humanoid-animal hybrid monstrosities populate the episodes, and the cast list is no less eclectic, featuring Giancarlo Esposito alongside Big Boi and Kid Cudi. Take your pick of terrors.

The Politician (Netflix, Sep. 27th)
Netflix bought five years of Ryan Murphy for a cool three hundred million, and his big entre to streaming is this multi-season saga of political shenanigans, high-school-style. Meet Payton Hobart (Tony winner Ben Platt) as he rises through the ranks of American democracy. Bear witness to the birth of his carnivorous ambition with his high school election, and watch how he learns how to manipulate the public with help from Zoey Deutch plays his sickly, sympathy-point-gaining running mate quell a scandal and other skills that will help win him votes by any means necessary. Gwyneth Paltrow, Jessica Lange and Bob Balaban (along with a few late-act surprises) are also onboard. Its a classically Murphian combination of camp wit and glorious stunt casting.

The Spy (Netflix, Sep. 6th)
When Sacha Baron Cohens face appears onscreen, its generally a sign that theres a ruse afoot and someones not in on it. Not so with this rare straight-faced dramatic turn for the actor, which casts him as espionage professional Eli Cohen, the most respected agent in the history of the Israeli intelligence unit. The limited series concentrates on his work in Damascus during the Sixties, in which Cohen wormed his way into Syrias highest echelons of power and uncovered anti-Israel operations before they could be sprung. The former Borat has always been a magnet for scandal, but with the new shows sensitive subject matter and U.S.-Israel relations growing more complicated by the day, he could find himself at the center of an entirely different sort of controversy.

Tall Girl (Netflix, Sep. 13th)
For a teenage girl, it aint easy being six-foot-one. Thats the quandary facing Jodi Kreyman (played by real-life tall girl Ava Michelle), a high schooler looking for love and looming over the rest of her grade. This romcom explores the highs and lows mostly the highs of her search for a boyfriend wholl love every inch of her as is, unencumbered by male insecurity about being the shorter half of the couple. Most of the boys her age arent nearly that mature, however, leaving Jodi unlucky in love and more self-conscious than the already-steep adolescent baseline. If one more jokester asks her how the weather is up there, itll be one too many.

Transparent Musicale Finale (Amazon, Sep. 27th)
The so-called final season of Amazons Emmy magnet is really a musical send-off at feature length, with the show dipping into fantasy to capture the Pfefferman family grief process. Everyones convened to mourn the death of their transgender moppa/family figurehead Maura; the widow (Judith Light) and the adult Pfefferman children (Jay Duplass, Amy Landecker, and Gaby Hoffmann) are left in a toe-tapping existential spiral. They sing their way through complicated meditations on gender and Judaism in a production equal parts Broadway and Advanced Feminist Theory 301. It ends not with a bang, but a Broadway-style extravaganza.

Unbelievable (Netflix, Sept. 13th)
Theres a serial rapist on the loose, but the cops remain skeptical after the shaken survivors of his brutal attacks have trouble keeping the details of their stories straight. Two female detectives (Toni Collette and Merritt Wever) recognize a serious crime when they see one, however, and take the investigation into their own hands. Working closely and empathetically with the assaulted women (Kaitlyn Dever and Danielle Macdonald), they give a voice to the voiceless and pursue justice on behalf of women everywhere. Adapted from a ProPublica article and directed by the quietly brilliant Lisa Cholodenko, its a morbidly engrossing true crime potboiler with a strong pedigree.

Undone (Amazon, Sep. 13th)
BoJack Horseman co-creator Raphael Bob-Waksberg and his regular producer Kate Purdy continue to expand the boundaries of animation in their newest project. Alita: Battle Angel breakout Rosa Salazar assumes cartoon form as Alma, a woman who emerges from a gnarly car accident banged up but imbued with newfound powers to bend the fabric of reality. With guidance from her father (Bob Odenkirk), she tests the limits of her fantastical abilities and launches herself into realms of pure abstraction beyond the capabilities of live-action entertainment. BoJack often pushed the formal envelope, and in the teams tinkering with rotoscoping techniques, that experimental spirit has been freely unleashed.

Untouchable (Hulu, Sep. 2nd)
Of all the powerful predators felled by the revelations of the Me Too movement, none went down harder than Harvey Weinstein. The Oscar-hoarding producer was once feared as too influential to challenge, but the honesty and bravery of a shockingly large contingent of accusers proved that a supposedly invincible man could still be dethroned. This documentary goes face to face with the women responsible for exposing the brutal truth Paz de la Huerta, Rosanna Arquette, Zelda Perkins and others and devotes the lions share of its run time to harrowing interviews that allow them to confront the memory of their trauma in a safe space. This film helps put it all on record.

Wu-Tang: An American Saga (Hulu, Sep. 4th)
Self-mythologizing has always been a big part of the Wu-Tang Clans insular world and this series dramatizing their rise-to-fame years aims to take their legend one level deeper. The Nineties have just hit New York, and while crack creeps into the streets, a group of young visionaries subsisting on a steady diet of kung-fu flicks and killer weed chart a path out of poverty. The RZA, the GZA, OlDirty Bastard, Raekwon, Method Man, Ghostface Killah, and Inspectah Deck come together to turn their virtuosic skills for rapping and beat-making into a legitimate living, but in the land of Shaolin, the path to stardom can be treacherous. Ashton Sanders, Shameik Moore, and Siddiq Saunderson all star in a genuine hip-hop superhero origin story.
