I feel the same way. Sure, other characters already have terrible things happen to them and aren’t mean people, but I can’t fault Marcy for being a ‘bitch’ and coping with her son’s death with anger. She just says some mean things to you, she doesn’t actually DO anything to you, so it’s pretty easy for me to ignore…

I never said she was the best speaker there, just that it’s undoubtedly stupid to act like she doesn’t know how to talk into a microphone when she’s been doing it for decades.

She sometimes as though acts as if she doesn’t understand that when you speak into a microphone like that, there’s such things as amplifiers and speakers and you’re gonna be heard.

Hm... well, if there is actually a direct comparison to a similar event, then that is pretty damning.

You know, that’s a good point. I was ready to get all up in arms about this but the fact that she wasn’t there kind of explains it? If they used a picture of her from a different event it could be interpreted as a misrepresentation. Like, it would seem as if they were implying she had been there, and the picture of…

I’m pretty sure it’s actually because she brutally murdered someone

Isn’t this a bit inconsistent though? Manson didn’t actually physically kill anyone, he just orchestrated it (and for the record, I can’t wait for him to die already, I’m just saying for comparison). So if he should be kept in jail forever, then surely the legal adults who actually committed the murders for him should…

He’s cute, but I’ve seen more commitment as far as genderbent Quiet goes...

I will wait for as long as Anno needs for 4.0. I’d rather he take the time it needs to make it a good film, rather than him ruining himself and probably making a bad movie as a result anyway.

Yeah... that’s not at all the jurisdiction of random cops. There are dedicated search and rescue teams who look for missing persons, but the police in general are in no way supposed to wander around in the fucking woods for hours in case they happen to stumble upon something. They have to be in populated areas on hand…

I don’t think it’s something particular to today’s media at all, though. If anything, it’s actually harder to get away with writing this kind of stuff, because the internet makes it easier to fact check than ever before, and when an article is found to be erroneous it will be put on blast and shamed by the entirety of…

I mean I will still of course vote for her over Trump, because I would vote for a soggy paper bag over trump, but I wish that I could actually be excited about our first woman president instead of just... resigning myself to the best of limited options.

Still though, it really hurts my personal faith in her as a candidate. I’ve been trying for the last several months to psych myself into being excited for her as the nominee, but she keeps doing things that bother me, and her doing any thing as Secretary of State that can be described as “enormously stupid” is a big…

Exactly, why don’t any of these fucking losers just kill themselves before killing other people?

Exactly! And I’m not even a religious or spiritual person at all, but the way the movie is made is so convincing that I can appreciate its spiritual nature, it’s truly beautiful.

Are you seriously playing “won’t somebody think of the poor billion-dollar corporation” right now??

Well, Solaris was the first movie of his I’ve seen, and probably his most narratively legible? Though all of his movies are quite bizarre and difficult to follow logically. I’d say The Mirror is my favorite of his films that I’ve seen, but it’s also more narratively confusing (it’s kind of like The Tree of Life in…

Exactly! I’ve heard people say that they walked out of the theater during the creation-of-the-universe sequence but I found that segment so gorgeous it moved me to tears. Different strokes, I suppose, but god, it was just gorgeous... I thought the whole movie was. Reminded me a lot of Tarkovsky; yes, you have to be…

The Tree of Life is a beautiful, gorgeous, moving work of art and I will brook no arguments otherwise

Is it so impossible though? I think Trine 2 is absolutely gorgeous pretty much all the time and from what I could gather (there isn’t much info on its budet out there) it didn’t even cost $1 mil to make, though I could be wrong since I couldn’t find an actual figure for its dev costs. However, all the wikipedia page…
