I was thinking the same initially, but seeing that tweet with all the little girls’ reactions to it... it’s safe to say I’m just old and the movie will no doubt kick butt for a lot of kids. Let them enjoy it!

Newsflash: black people can’t just be, like, people. They have to be “a culture.”

Is it white girls saying these racist things or are white incel dudes seriously coming out to bat for this?

Mermaid culture isn’t real

Sorry, every time I see Halle Bailey written out, my mind converts it to Halle Berry. I can’t help it.

Jesus Christ.

Sad but not surprising.  Patrick Stewart was looking super old.  

They don’t though. They cling to every bit of news that they can spin to show that “people are tired of woke media.” And it doesn’t matter if they’re wrong. They tell themselves that they’re right.

Nothing’s a given under the new SCOTUS.  

For the last week, I thought they had cast Halle Berry as Ariel and I was so deeply confused.  

This movie will be forgotten about in 2-3 months. 

Bonus points for the original story being born from Hans Christian Anderson’s anguish over not being able to be with the man he loved. So there’s something to throw in the face of everyone claiming to care about the author’s intention.

Did these purists also complain about the fact that the movie ended with the mermaid happily marrying the prince, instead of being rejected by the condescending jerk and facing a choice between killing him on his wedding bed or dying without a soul? Since they seem so concerned with preserving the original, you know.

But what about the little WHITE girls who want princesses to see themselves in? What about them? Those poor girls only have Snow White, Aurora, Cinderella, Belle, Rapunzel, Elsa, Anna, and Merida. That’s barely over 50% of all the options! Also Alice, Wendy, Tinker Bell, Megara, and Giselle if you count them. It’s not…

my only hope is it feels like people desperate because they know they are losing. they know young people do not believe in their nonsense, so its going to die, and they are flailing against the eventuality that they have no power to resist, its like the people who fought interracial marriage.

Need I remind you of the “Santa Claus isn’t black” nonsense Fox News perpetrated?

She looks and sounds great.

I was disappointed when they cast a white guy for the prince. I was hoping for a Kpop singer like anyone from BTS. The fact that they now have a BTS concert movie on D+ seems like a missed opportunity.

Exactly. I had my first one last year. I did it willingly and without complaint, but I admit I figured I’d wake up feeling a little sore. Nothing at all.

I told my wife and she was like, “You’re a fucking idiot.”

Why are you shaming Reynolds for trying to say its ok to have life saving procedure, that a lot of people won’t do it, because they have to go into your ass, especially man??
