What Time Is The Biden News Conference? How To Watch The President's Speech Tonight
President Trump and Kim Jong Un’s meeting in Singapore on Tuesday morning wasn’t just historic… it was cinematic. In a story that’s both believable and unbelievable, Trump and the White House created a movie trailer for Kim Jong Un that depicted the two leaders in heroic fashion. Filled with patriotic rhetoric while also hinting at the possibility of global warfare, the video, which is purported to be from a company called Destiny Pictures, is four-minutes of glorious you-gotta-see-it-to-believe action.
Including phrases like “the past doesn’t have to be the future” and featuring a brief cameo appearance from Sylvester Stallone, the bizarre trailer is almost too surreal for words. Is it patriotic jibber-jabber? Manipulative propaganda? Art? Savvy showmanship? None of the above? All of the above?
You can watch the video in its entirety above, but here are a few of our favorite moments:
Are these hornless unicorns or just your average group of aquatic horses?

Regardless, they are majestic as F.
Did somebody say… FREEDOM SPEEDBOAT?!

Nothing exudes diplomacy better than… bumper cars?

So… I hear you like basketball!

“What if? Can history be changed? Will the world embrace this change? And when can this moment in history begin? It comes down to a choice. On this day. In this time. At this moment. The world will be watching, listening, anticipating, hoping.”
That’s a solid quote. Personally, I would have gone in a different direction:
“Look, if you had one shot, one opportunity
To seize everything you ever wanted
One moment
Would you capture it or just let it slip?”
So what did Kim Jong Un think of the video? According to the president, he loved it.
“We had it made up. I showed it to him today, actually during the meeting, toward the end of the meeting and I think he loved it,” Trump said during his news conference in Singapore.
And what about Destiny Pictures? The owner of the company, Mark Castaldo, told the NY Post he had nothing to do with its making and that nobody from the White House contacted him.
“I went to bed and woke up to hundreds of news outlets calling me,” he said. “It’s all about this video. It’s crazy.”
Personally, if I were selecting a trailer to prevent nuclear war, I’d go with the promo for the 1997 action comedy Excess Baggage, which features Alicia Silverstone, Benicio Del Toro, and the music of both the Spice Girls and Third Eye Blind. But I am not the President of the United States and the trailer for Excess Baggage admittedly features zero patriotic speedboats, so what the hell do I know?
