Argo was such award bait middling nonsense that it was actually painful to watch. If not for the fact that the original story was interesting, I probably wouldn’t have finished it. Hollywood, please stop with your overrated white guys, please.

are we done pretending American Hustle was good, at least

for real. i see a guy trying to text privately.

Pretty horrified that any adult woman raising a baby girl thinks vaginas make something “dirty.” Did she try to get her money back from her husband too?

I can’t really feel any excitement about his statements on this. I mean, congratulations on coming to the enlightened conclusion that people shouldn’t have to stay in abusive relationships. Of course if they leave they’ll need to spend the rest of eternity in solitude...

Whoever documented her shame and then put it on the internet deserves an eternity of public humiliations. I hope they crap themselves at work or on the metro or while on a first date. The universe should right this wrong. And I hope in their moment of embarrassment they realize that what they are experiencing is…

All the stars!!!

One more hand and now you’re a Hindu deity.

I kept trying to type a comment, but all these thoughts were at war with each other. Thanks for summing them up.

totally agree. wwhat to do... i would show to my high school students if i was a high school teacher to teach them not to rape, but i have no interest in watching but i guess i would for the kids.

Thank you for perfectly summing up my thoughts on this whole thing.

Yeah, there’s a very strong conflict within me as well about this. When I read about what she’s been doing, I keep wondering if this is detrimental or not to the way people view rape, and then if it is or isn’t why is that my business to gauge, etc. etc. I just don’t know about this piece though. To create another…

In a nutshell.

She’s making you think that much— so therefore, it worked.

“with pretensions to art that you might expect of someone who’s not very mature for her age.”

on the eight hand - she just may be very good at drawing attention to herself via promotion...

“On the fifth hand, this will probably lead even reasonably-minded people to question her judgement and sincerity, if not her mental stability, and cast doubt on her accusations, thereby hurting the cause.”

Thank you for putting words to my jumbled thoughts!

On the one hand, this is misguided, sophomoric, exploitative and narcissistic. The kind of exhibitionistic stunt with pretensions to art that you might expect of someone who’s not very mature for her age.

This is tremendous. Well done.
