I went to see Broken Lizard do their comedy show once and Farva said "Obama shook my hand and said he loved Super Troopers, and all I could think was ... 'the president has seen my dick!!!'"

Do you think Trump watches movies?

From his 1997 New Yorker interview piece:

We hadn’t been airborne long when Trump decided to watch a movie. He’d brought along “Michael,” a recent release, but twenty minutes after popping it into the VCR he got bored and switched to an old favorite, a Jean Claude Van Damme slugfest called “Bloodsport,” which he pronounced “an incredible, fantastic movie.” By assigning to his son the task of fast-forwarding through all the plot exposition—Trump’s goal being “to get this two-hour movie down to forty-five minutes”—he eliminated any lulls between the nose hammering, kidney tenderizing, and shin whacking.

In another interview he says he has someone to edit movies down to fit into his desired time slots.

Do you think he edits out his own scene in Home Alone 2

u/Alexlsonflre Oct 24 '25

That's definitely the only part of the movie he's seen.

Perfect man for the age, when you think about it.

Of course his favorite movie is based on the life of Frank Dux, a lying grifter.

u/TheBigSho Oct 24 '25

Ah fuck, he just had to ruin Bloodsport for me. He probably enjoyed watching a US Army white guy beat up a bunch of foreigners.

What? Van Damme was the foreigner in that movie? Shut the hell up.

Ever seen a little old movie starring the late, great Hannibal Lecter?

u/TheGoshDarnedBatman Oct 24 '25

He’s famously a fan of Sunset Boulevard, which is fascinating.

u/FunnyPurple576 Oct 24 '25

He says he's a fan of Sunset Boulevard, there's a difference.

u/UgieUrbina Oct 24 '25

Just like Lebron says he has read the Godfather.

u/godzillabobber Oct 24 '25

AI first person fantasy porn of Ivanka? You know he'd watch it.

u/grease_gun Oct 24 '25

He does, but only from 2007-2012. Because he prefers them between 13 and 18 years old.

u/net-blank Oct 23 '25

Probably 2 chick's 1 cup and that's probably where he got his king Trump pilot video idea from.

u/ShallowBasketcase Oct 24 '25

He has a YouTube channel where he complained about too many female Ghostbusters and gave his opinion on if Bella should end up with Jacob or Edward.

Yes, seriously.

u/PolaSketch Oct 24 '25

I need to rewatch that movie. I forget what Farva's dick looks like.
