I don’t want to be dismissive but what growing chorus? Who is even talking about a republic apart from a tiny group of liberal republicans?

I keep meaning to get my eyes checked because any time I go shopping now I gotta pull out my phone, take a pic, zoom in on pic to read the ingredients for anything we haven’t bought before (partner has allergies).
I thought my eyes would be fine forever.

Why would there need to be? It doesn’t sound like there was any studio interference or that the film makers were unhappy with the final cut.
I didn’t know about this:
Sean Bobbitt served as cinematographer, who preferred using handheld cameras and natural lighting. Cianfrance saw Bobbitt’s experience as a war photographer as an advantage, and was impressed with his process and sense of composition, which proved useful for a scene in the beginning which featured a tracking shot towards the globe of death.[2][13] Bobbitt initially stood inside the globe to capture footage of the motorcyclists, but a bike hit his head and he suffered a concussion. As a result, the director did not allow him inside again.

By ‘city street map’ do you mean someone that folds out a single sheet of paper or something more detailed?
We used to do pretty alright in Australia with these thick road map books you could pick up from any petrol station or newsagency shop. Imagine you had google maps in book form where each page was a section of a bigger map (basically a whole city) with a grid reference system, adjoining page references on each side and a vast index.

I only just realised how meaningless this phrase is. And I’m pretty sure it’s used a lot. I feel like this kind of language is deliberately crafted to scramble our brains.
