For this round of the movie club our theme is going to be "Satire".

    Okay how about this for a theme "Satire" It doesn't have to be funny, but I think it'd be great to find films which satirize life or people or other films or books and give us a different perspective on the hum drum. An example of this would be "They Came Together" which is a recent satire on the Romantic Comedy genre, or "I'm Not There" which is a (sort of) satire on the biopic genre (actually anything by Todd Haynes since he's broken the movie mold a lot of times).

How would you feel about In the Loop. From the wiki "satirical black comedy directed by Armando Iannucci as a spin-off from the BBC Television series The Thick of It. The film satirizes Anglo-American politics in the 21st century and the Invasion of Iraq."

It's honestly a great movie with a great cast, I watched it last week and couldn't stop laughing. Here's the trailer and the introduction to one of the character played by Peter Capaldi
