60 of 62 · most liked firstAnd saw GOOD LUCK, HAVE FUN, DON'T DIE, written by the guy who wrote The Invention of Lying, a Ricky Gervais movie I liked. It's #sf #apocalyptic social satire dark comedy, makes you laugh, very tautly directed and edited, great performances--and this is about THE STUFF I'VE BEEN WARNING ABOUT.
unlabelledView post →[thought bubble] you know, the large language models are less like an AI god, and more like the awful Ricky Gervais film, "The Invention of Lying"
unlabelledView post →It's almost as if RFK Jr said the exact opposite of what he was planning to do. What was the name of that Ricky Gervais movie? The Invention of Lying? Are we all stuck inside that movie and only the people in power know that lying exists?
unlabelledView post →Have you seen the film The Invention of Lying? It feels like we are in it. And it’s not just about the lies, just terrible people taking advantage of everyone else’s decency and taking over because as a society we grew unfamiliar with this level of brazenness and have no tools to fight it.
unlabelledView post →The Invention of Lying is an early film from Ricky Gervais that explores themes that have permeated all of his work, culminating in the masterfully executed After Life. The movie from 2009 is lighter in tone, but no less entertaining with its farcical plot point that no one lies... until he does. 🎬
unlabelledView post →The Invention of Lying is an underhated movie. Dogshit from top to bottom
unlabelledView post →There's a Ricky Gervais film called 'The Invention of Lying' that is crying out for you to watch it.
unlabelledView post →Remember The Invention of Lying? God, what a shit movie.
unlabelledView post →We're experiencing a pretty big storm up here tonight. I took a mental break with an ironic movie and if you need to also, I highly recommend The Invention of Lying with Ricky Gervais.
unlabelledView post →Ricky Gervais' movie "The Invention of Lying" explains it all very well.
unlabelledView post →It's the "The Invention of Lying" movie come to life. Also, one of Ricky Gervais' best films and a must-see today.
unlabelledView post →Thank you Paul, love your work. A scroll through Facebook is like watching that movie “The Invention of Lying.”
unlabelledView post →I think the greatest tragedy of modern life is that the best encapsulation of the vulnerability of a utopian society to a single bad actor is the Ricky Gervais movie "The Invention of Lying."
unlabelledView post →Trump and his dynamic reminds me of the movie The Invention of Lying: No one had ever lied. So when Ricky Gervais starts lying, and no one knew of lying, they saw it as truth. The distance Trump's lying is from what we have known as lying is as great as Gervais' lying was from the truth.
unlabelledView post →Hah! With this kind of thing, I always think of that Ricky Gervais movie The Invention of Lying and his conception of the planet telling the truth all the time is everyone being aggressively rude. Free Speech is in the eye of the beholder.
unlabelledView post →This is a sort of surreal inverse of that pivotal moment in the movie “The Invention of Lying”: Elon Musk said a thing…that is true
unlabelledView post →@lumberjake.bsky.social Jake, do you know the movie "The Invention of Lying "? I recommend it.
unlabelledView post →I watched The Invention of Lying and rarely have I regretted watching a movie so much. Just smug, self-serving dross, completely intolerable.
unlabelledView post →Terrible as this is, it can only happen if the moderates and the left let it happen. So far the non right wing (the silent majority) have allowed the take over of world Gov’ts, military & judicial system and barely said a word. They’re like characters in the movie ‘The Invention of Lying’ clueless 🤪
unlabelledView post →I sobbed through THE INVENTION OF LYING on a plane, terrible film, absolutely mystifying experience
unlabelledView post →Someone make a satirical movie on this please, like The Invention of Lying, call it ominously...The Protocol.
unlabelledView post →This amuses me. The writer of GLHFDD is a founder of a board game podcast I listen to. Knew he was a writer, but didn’t realize he did movies until this came out. Curious, I looked into what he’d done previously. He co-wrote “The Invention of Lying”… the worst movie on my last 10+ hour flight.
unlabelledView post →Haha, yeah, I noticed that he also wrote The Invention of Lying 😀 Not a great film, that (Love and Monsters was better though).
unlabelledView post →"He came to prominence by writing and directing the film 'The Invention of Lying' in collaboration with the English comedian Ricky Gervais. " BOOOOOOO
unlabelledView post →This is the plot of Ricky Gervais' middling movie "The Invention of Lying."
unlabelledView post →@stormaciousd.bsky.social Happened to see you watched Ghost Town Another really good Ricky Gervais movie is The Invention of Lying, have you seen?

unlabelledView post →Ik voel me hier als die film 'The Invention of Lying', maar dan met sarcasme. Verliest iedereen die herkenningsvaardigheid zodra je van X naar BlueSky gaat of zo?
unlabelledView post →I'm rewatching "The Invention of Lying" with @mrrickygervais.bsky.social it's definitely an underrated movie and one of Jennifer Garner's best.

unlabelledView post →I never watched a single episode of The Office, I’ve never watched one of his shows, televised or otherwise, and I’ve only seen The Invention of Lying and that film where he was a ghost. Both shit acting… but I know about his stance on trans. It’s well covered on SM
unlabelledView post →Somehow, I'd never seen THE INVENTION OF LYING until tonight. This film is fantastic. Also hysterical.
unlabelledView post →Just watched “The Invention of Lying” & had forgotten what an adorable & hilarious movie it was. All star cast too.
unlabelledView post →Neither film The Invention Of Lying or Liar Liar went that well for all involved.
unlabelledView post →There's a Ricky Gervais movie called the Invention of Lying and my parents just love it and they always tease me that I'd actually like it if all movies were just Great Courses style documentaries.
unlabelledView post →Well I didn't but now I will. Mr Blue Sky is in The Invention of Lying which is the movie my wife and I saw together when we hung out together for the first time
unlabelledView post →Is it another iteration of "blurt out everything that crosses your mind in the most hurtful possible fashion"? I *hate* that. Hated it in Liar Liar, REALLY hated it in The Invention of Lying (hot garbage movie).
unlabelledView post →There's this very mid Ricky Gervais movie called The Invention of Lying where he works for a company that only makes films based on historically accurate stuff, and it very clearly depicts these films as being boring as hell.

unlabelledView post →...they've constantly been trying to project an (un-?)intentionally false image of who they are and what they're trying to achieve by occupying their position. e.g. That movie The Invention of Lying, QED.
unlabelledView post →If you have not seen it yet, I strongly recommend the movie "The Invention of Lying" with Ricky Gervais.
unlabelledView post →Here is your cheat sheet to whether a social commentary film is good or bad - if you can boil its point down to "I don't know, people are stupid," it's bad. Don't Look Up, Idiocracy, The Invention of Lying - all rely on the working class to be slack-jawed morons for the film's central conflict.

unlabelledView post →Ricky Gervais wrote and directed an entire movie literally mocking the concept of God and religion ("The Invention of Lying"). Someone should mention that to him.
unlabelledView post →dem leadership explicitly does not want to abolish ice and are simply posturing i feel like i'm explaining the plot of the 2009 movie The Invention of Lying to people in the movie
unlabelledView post →It's like something from that movie "The Invention of Lying"
unlabelledView post →I wonder if they saw the 2009 film The Invention of Lying and thought "Hey! Let's do THAT!"
unlabelledView post →Trump's actions remind me of the movie The Invention of Lying. Trump breaks the law. He has no right to set tariffs on countries because his friend is being tried for crimes (Brazil) or just because he felt like it (Canada). US system is unprepared for a leader who doesn't act like a gentleman.
unlabelledView post →Couldn’t bring myself to watch the Brent movie. I’m quite partial to the Invention of Lying just because the premise is quite sharp and increasingly relatable.
unlabelledView post →@Edent When I hear ads, I oft think of The Invention of Lying (film). It's hard to think of these as anything other than parody. It can't be effective, right? On the one hand, I believe that. Many such ads are ineffective, yet paid for because it is branding (not sales), or incompetent […]
unlabelledView post →Sometimes I feel like I'm in the movie "The Invention of Lying" and I'm one of the people who figured out that lying is just a thing you can do. I'm not lying to anyone, but I have people trying to use the argument of "[person] said they wouldn't," not taking into consideration [person] could lie.

unlabelledView post →Remember that movie with Ricky Gervais, The Invention of Lying? That’s MAGA. They literally don’t understand the concept.
unlabelledView post →‘The Invention of Lying’ - (I’d never seen it!) Wow, there are a lot of sex offenders in that movie. Like, you’d have to go out of your way to cast that many.
unlabelledView post →AFAF…Is the “The Invention of Lying” movie become a reality?
unlabelledView post →Have you ever seen the film "The Invention of Lying?" Has a diabolical scene in it.
unlabelledView post →It’s not a good movie and Ricky Gervais sucks shit but in ‘The Invention of Lying’, the concept of fictional stories doesn’t exist and every movie in-universe is just a person sitting on a chair telling a story from history. It dawned on me that YouTube is now about 80-90% that.
