I wasn’t trying to add anything to the conversation, though it feels like I did given the amount of stars that the post seems to be generating. Again, I laughed—very hard and still chuckle about it, because she used what I consider and many other people in my profession, consider it to be a useless talking point as a…

Well, she used her “degree” as some sort of defense to the comment above hers like it validate her opinion. It was quiet frankly hilarious. I mean, I was thinking the same thing as the person who commented that mention “color grading” as if it was some huge offense to movie making was hilarious. Now, I’m sure…

I have a degree in Film & Television and I have no issue telling who’s punching what in Marvel movies. Opinions, I guess.

To be fair you did say color grading is “something I never really thought about”.
From what I learned the last go around on this topic, the Marvel movies are deliberately applying color grading to achieve a certain aesthetic that also ties the movies in that universe together.

Then why are you posting a link to a widely mocked video?

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah...she said cinema studies...hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahaha...I too have a degree in cinema studies AND i work in Hollywood and I can tell you...you should get your money back.

Have we laypeople not learned to keep quiet about color grading yet?

We can totally email and we can be private! Best, m

All the arguing aside, Tilda Swinton converses via the written word exactly as I would imagined she would.

I’m Latino and gay... and couldn’t disagree more with your comment.

That person’s reasoning is nonsense. The director made a judgment call. The goal was to be diverse and avoid outdated stereotypes that are offensive today. So they had one character Asian, another black, and another made from male to female and of Celtic origin.

She has connections to a different culture, whatever. The point is Swinton made an honest and well-intentioned attempt to understand this issue and was not rude or offensive about it at all. And Cho shat on her publicly for no good reason.

Jesus, no. Its a guy in a tiki mask in board shorts. get your shit together!

California Games was one of the few games i had for my Atari Lynx.

He shuts off the money to defense contractors and all of a sudden Republicans in the House want to take another look at the CIA report about Russian interference...

Just imagine how she is going to react when someone tells her where pistachios come from...

When the thought, “waiting for the right time to break it to the internet” crosses your mind, it’s a powerful sign that you have made poor life choices.
