Wanted to add this panel from a Brian McFadden cartoon (entire spread here: https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2017/11/3/1712112/-Cartoon-Fox-News-new-lineup)

They also sneaked in language to politicize churches:

I really admire John C. Reilly too. He’s one of the best actors, and he also sings! Beats Leo flat.

The bear was good, though

It was such a pleasing relief to watch the World Series. Not only was the play great, the players really seemed to be having a mostly good, exciting time and they were not getting brain damage or slaving for a raving racist asshole like Jerry Jones. It was fun, which the JJ/Papa John show is not. I am hoping that…

Your place in American history, outgoing unknown Twitter employee.

Well done, unknown Twitter employee. A grateful world applauds you.

...nearly every time i search for something, I get the option to get it on DVD (as if I have a fucking DVD player anymore), or a bunch of suggestions for shit that isn’t even close.

I want a board I can clean in the dishwasher, so that eliminates the wood or bamboo ones. The board should also resist warping, so a thicker board is usually better. I like having a juice gutter on one surface of the board, so that means the OXO one; the restaurant thick ones are fine if you don’t want the groove. …

Folks, we need to pay attention to this comment. Steve Hullfish is the one who actually conducted the interview discussed in the opening post, and having now read the transcribed interview myself, I see what he means. Contrary to what the opening post in this thread implies, there was never a proposal to release a 4…

Yes. She was a thing, and not because she was a replicant. She had relevance only in reference to two men, and she was dominated by them. Her great strength served only to highlight the mens’ greater power.

I agree, and I apologize for seeming to imply that only women would be put off by the film’s misogyny.

I wondered about polymer clay too, but I think a fine-grained regular clay would be more conducive to detailed modeling. Also, if she used polymer, would she have kept it a grey monotone? I’m guessing she used a self-hardening sculpture clay like this: https://www.amaco.com/t/clays/self-hardening-clay

I agree that those scenes didn’t really add much but more of the same look. I loathed that first scene of Leto’s, and not primarily because I thought his acting was distracting..

Interesting and looks like they were fun to make. I’d enjoy watching her process. For example, does she sketch first or let them grow organically under her hands in the clay, or both? Wet or unfired dry clay alone would not allow those slender, jointed legs to support the large bodies, so either there is some kind…

Oh yes, I agree with everything you wrote. (And by the way, I did see the first movie too, and I’m a woman.) For me, just after the movie ended, I sat stunned by the artistic impact for a while, and my first words to the friends I was with were, “That was a work of art, and I don’t see what could have been cut to…

Re the holograms, I thought about that too, that the women passersby might have been seeing male images. But then I realized: it would only have worked if the images were projected onto individual screens, for example digitally connected glasses, visor, or contact lenses, but that wasn’t what happened. In the movie…

Probably! I think there would also be more scenes establishing the story, which might be interesting. I doubt I’d watch the whole 4-hr thing, though I would be curious enough to read some reviews and comments about the changes and additions.

Makes sense to me: no one else wants to fuck them and the rusty chainsaw might enjoy it.

I think someone needs to invent a Letometer with a dial that can turn him down when he gets to be too, too much. As he did. Those parts of the script didn’t help either.
