In high school, I had a very liberal feminist friend who loved the Beatles mention (with approval) an "I Blame Yoko" bumper sticker she'd seen.

For a group of people who hate diversity, the right is actually sports no shortage of it, at least in terms of ideology.

The Bernie Bros are indistinguishable in tone, behavior and even the phrasing of their comments from Ron Paul supporters in 2008.

The other day I saw someone claim that Trump was "challeng[ing] the status quo and the moneyed interests."

He's shown sympathy towards marginalized groups that it seems socially unacceptable not to despise, like undocumented immigrants and innocent people tortured in the war on terror (there are some people who *will* *not* *accept* that some of the guys we've got rotting in Gitmo are anything other than terrorists).

Also, Bill Maher is kind of horribly un-liberal in many ways (most notably when it comes to Islam).

I often have that problem with programs on PBS. Commercials are awful, but they do sometimes server a very useful function as intermissions.

Casting actors for roles not because of how well they fit the part as actors but because of their stardom is a big problem for all races - that's no one other than Chris Pratt was ever going to be the Raptor Wrangler in Jurassic World, and why Benedryl Cumberbund has been in, like, two dozen biopics over the past few…

I glanced at your rant and I thought you were trying to passionately make a well-meaning argument that all black people are just black, and we shouldn't worry about how "black" an actor or a character is -

Combat Wombat.

Mackie looks as unlike King as Cranston looks like Johnson here. It is a bit jarring.

I just remembered! I'd forgotten 'Lilo & Stitch': the computer animation (mostly the spaceships) was flawlessly integrated with the traditional animation: https://www.youtube.com/v/f…

Having someone like Daulerio run a site like Gawker the way he did is ironically exactly the kind of thing that Gawker would (very justifiably) run an outraged exposé about.

I didn't realize that 'Black Sails' was supposed to be a prequel to 'Treasure Island.' 'Treasure Island' is a children's book. It was written by Stevenson for publication in a children's magazine. Having a prequel on subscription cable featuring prostitution and rape is … kind of bizarre.

Both 'The Aristocats' and 'Meet the Robinsons' weren't particularly memorable, but they were both quite good films and I will not stand to see them slandered in this way.

The use of CGI in an otherwise hand-animated movie always stood out a bit, even when it was quite well integrated (modern animation blends the two styles much more smoothly). The Iron Giant (and the bits like the train tracks when he tries to realign them) was noticeably different in the way he moved than all the…

Also, let's not forget 'Dinosaur,' which is generally not considered to be very good at all but which I thought was an incredible and really solid film.

Unlike 'Atlantis' and 'Treasure Planet' and even 'The Road to El Dorado,' 'Titan: AE' was actually pretty shitty and not really worth watching. It looked like it would be as awesome (both visually and in general) as those others, but sadly it was not.

I read that as "I just watched 'Treasure Planet 2'" and I was momentarily horrified by the fact that they'd made a direct-to-video (because that's the only thing it could be) sequel and how unbearably bad it almost inevitably would have been.

Complains about outrageous behavior like that are, as a general rule, usually just slander. You pick a group of people who are unpopular and easy to hate on, bring up some instance of the *outrageous* and horrible things they're doing, you hate on that group, and you feel self-righteous.
