Hot take: I agree that the whole thing was a mess... and that’s why it was so fun to watch.

Any award people vote on is basically an award for “most effective Twitter bot.”

This is going to be a White and Gold v Blue and Black cultural moment. The problem is these people know each other well enough to have avoided this. Chris Rock ought to know by now she is not choosing to rock the GI Jane look. Will Smith knows Chris Rock well enough to make his displeasure known in strong terms later.…

This makes much more sense when you realize that the hippos incorporated in Delaware.

The wild thing is that another cis dude felt as though his perspective mattered more than, say, any trans people. Like, my dude, you wouldn’t accept a white guy telling you whether something was racist when a lot of Black folks were saying it was, why on Earth can’t you figure that same thing out when it’s about…

hate to tell you this but Thug is absolutely a transphobe who’s been accused of physical violence against women. they really just traded one shitty prospect for another here

Exactly.  This is like when people say “I don’t see race.”  Well then it’s no fucking wonder you don’t recognize your own racism.  

The fact that you think your behavior is what we SHOULD do when a cop flips their lights on is part of the problem. I don’t blame you for it, but victim blaming this woman for doing what she’s supposed to do according to the state’s own guidance and then falling back on your own fucked-up, traumatized reaction to…

So my question is: was Cybil Shepard actually not "easy to work with," or is that code for "woman who didn't put up with sexist horseshit so got labelled with the dreaded 'difficult'" tag?

Raped, impregnated, married off, divorced, and dead before she could legally by a drink.

I was actually hoping for Chiwetel Ejiofor to play Strange when he was circling the project before Cumberbatch’s name ever came up. Simply because Ejiofor is one of the best actors working today and Cumberbatch is... fine. he’s fine I guess. 

Nuff said.

I can’t stand his movies, but I’ll admit that Snyder seems like a nice guy, sort of like the Guy Fieri of filmmakers.

Non-denominational doesn’t rule out evangelical. I’d say it probably makes it more likely. Non-denominational isn’t another name for Unitarian. Everyone I’ve known who has described their church as non-denominational has been evangelical.

Orrrr- he just needed to move on from his marriage and he was unhappy.

Was he active as an adult though? I was raised southern Baptist but I didn’t want shit to do with it ever, and left the church as soon as I was an adult. But my recovery made me fall back into it in a time of desperation. I even tried to “save” my best friend & I knew she was not religious; it was very embarrassing to…
