this is so dumb. disney just released mulan last year. films designed for the chinese market by hollywood studios, or international co-productions between hollywood and chinese studios, have been raking in billions now for a decade.

you’d think we all be better at parsing phrasing considering how intent we all are to look for the most minor sleight. but all we do is reflect our own insecurities back at us. 

Simu Liu is one of the kings of “getting pissed for no reason” on twitter. the guy is as dumb as a ton of bricks.

this might get me in trouble but the marketing of the identity politics of this film are just fucking bizarre. based on the trailers, this film does not look good. the story isn’t grabbing me, and its star does not seem particularly charismatic. if i wanted to watch a martial arts film, there are many available to…

it is not enough. 

these game dev companies are typically found in expensive cities though, and 50k is not enough to save for a home, pay for a family, save for retirement. if you’re making less than that, you should really question the nature of the job. 

it is called ‘middle earth’ though for a reason. it’s far bigger and racially and ethnically diverse than the UK. 

that box is insane. it makes gloomhaven or bloodborne look manageable. that’s almost kingdom death monsters proportions. given that half my hobby involves it being manageable, this is unreasonably huge.

weird how comments like these just duplicate certain phrases like “staying in your head rent-free”, as if you have no original thoughts of your own. 

i don’t dislike it, i just don’t care? it’s a weird position to be in. at some point i just released it and moved on. if this is happening to a lot of viewers, many of whom have watched for years through the good and bad, that’s kinda worrying right? 

much appreciated!

please explain. i’m not literate on the older stuff.

i wonder if i’m unique in really digging whittaker and the new approach to doctor who at first but then suddenly developing amnesia that this even existed anymore? 

they should have an option for a bacta tank. downside, you’re forced to be fully submerged and have to wear a sci fi diaper. 

you think they’ll let me bring an escort dressed up as Oola?

lololol moulin rouge’s trailers looked insane. this looks like a musical episode of a Los Angeles based sitcom, when the lead character gets amnesia at a Renaissance Festival.

kenneth branagh and co. already nailed this. his adaptation of cinderella is probably the only good disney live action adaptation of their animated film catalogue. 

this human-centered dissection of “life” is cringe-worthy and extremely, extremely “hollywood.” life doesn’t give a shit about life. we’re accidental fucking chaos. look at how well-dressed and clean everyone is in this. look at how netflix style the lighting is, and the constrained interior sets. that isn’t life.…

game addiction is real. all over the world people are getting hooked on fun!

she knows she’s in a great spot in this situation—as a female in a leadership position during a sexual assault crisis, she’s probably the least likely person to be fired for being a piece of shit. but clearly this person is a historical piece of shit, regardless of gender.
