That combo of the way she says “BLACKS” and her fighting not to call us ignorant was really something.

Inspiring ❤️

The bit about studio notes made me think of the X-Men 3 commentary track, where I learned that Lauren Shuler Donner had to have several meetings with dudes from the studio who were convinced that the audience would not find Rebecca Romijn fuckable if she was a brunette during the 2 minutes of screen time she had where …

This narrative that it’s only not liked because of racism/sexism is so played out.

The whole “Is it a Christmas movie???” debate seemed better suited to Lethal Weapon than Die Hard, to me.

And I would tentatively grant that if you perceive a pro-Israel bias in the media, it’s gonna be very very difficult to voice that in a non-dicey way.

If this quote had been made in any other context, by someone less attuned to the current progressive zeitgeist, it would be labelled as a dogwhistle no questions asked.

In case I was not clear: I do not disagree with the substance of what you said, at all. It is because I agree that I felt the need to address the phrasing (which I did not read as deliberately ill-intentioned).

Saying “the Israeli government is bad because of their actions” is NOT anti-semitic. It’s anti-Jewish Government ... which is VERY much not the same thing, no matter how some of the loudest criers would have you believe.

You can pull one Instagram story (which was sandwiched in between several stressing that she was criticizing governments, not Jewish people as a whole) and try to twist it and claim that she’s saying “It’s because Jews control the media!!!” because you’re a disingenuous fuck OR you have worms for brains and it…

Right? And then when he says “My nose is very similar to Lenny’s, actually, so the prosthetic is actually like a silk sheet” — 1. If you think it’s similar to Bernstein’s, none of this makes sense, and 2. Silk sheet? More like a giant duvet.

LOL @ the headline change.

She wasn’t fired “over comments about Israel” as the headline states, and framing it this way makes it seem like she went off and said something crazy anti-Semitic.

Libatique’s work with Cooper and Darren Aronofsky has shown him to be a D.P. who understands how best to shuttle between crackling, kinetic scenes of wonder and carefully choreographed moments of intimate alienation.

Ugh, seriously. I’m on board for the character of the Bear Jew, but the execution sucked and was irritating!

Thank you. The fucking over-the-top rage toward literally anything Barsanti does is just weird at this point.

Taylor’s also doing a variation on the tall girl slouch (Elizabeth Debicki has turned it into an art form).

I’m not sure how anyone could think it was geniunely disdainful of the folks calling bullshit, especially when you read this bit:
