Maybe I’m watching the wrong horror movies (or the right ones!) but I honestly can’t think of many examples of Black Dude Dies First. In Night of the Living Dead, Black Dude Dies Last to "friendly fire" to highlight racism.

It would help if majority character X would die for minority character Y once in a while.
That would indeed be interesting. We have reached a point where Picard, Worf, Data et al are big names in the mainstream, enough to justify a reboot
In the 3D Clone Wars they clarify that Grievous is still by far and away the best general the Separatists have, but that his methods are not honorable or impressive. Grievous, Filoni informs us, is like a hyena: never attacking the strongest, but always singling out the weakest in the herd. He picks battles that he…
The shield is made of vibranium. Vibranium is a science-fiction metal. It is NOT indestructible; that’s adamantium. Vibranium’s special property is that it absorbs vibrations, amplifies them, and releases the amplified vibrations. This means that when Thor strikes the shield with Mjolnir, it releases a shockwave that…
“Useful” and “practical” aren’t words that describe the Alcubierre drive. Last I checked, you’d first need to discover exotic matter that possesses negative mass, and although they’ve optimized the theoretical design to require less exotic matter, that just means you’d no longer need an amount equal to the size of the…
That has never, ever been established. You don't need superpowers to throw a frisbee.
That hasn’t stopped people from going berserk over NFL players doing it. My point is that for Walker, anything at all that “disrespects the flag” is a berserk button for him. And as far as he’s concerned, the symbol that is Captain America is the flag’s highest expression. Hence his raging "DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM!?".
How do they contradict each other again?
Do I have to remove the Nissan logo from my car before I resell it?
It fits with episode two. In ep 2 he was shown as so reverential towards the mantle that he’s afraid of not living up to it. He was obsequious towards Sam and Bucky because in his mind they’re the only ones who can truly judge whether he’s lived up to it or not, like sort of Panchen Lamas. Of course when they continue…
Yeah, that’s the same group alright
I think the best way to nip that shit in the bud is that whenever they start harassing you, you go over and say that you’re flattered they find you interesting, tell them about your day, and ask them if they wanna sit together. When they say no, ignore them and sit with them anyway and start interrupting their…
I think we all got the main gist of it, which is that Ash is horny for the Tall Lady. I’m not entirely sure why half the Internet seems to be thirsty for this one video game character, but TBH it’s not terribly important that I understand, either.
It’s the fault of the creators. Valkyrie for example was never confirmed as bi in Ragnarok; it was something the fans were left to interpret for themselves. If the only examples of queer representation are ones where the audience has to read between the lines, then you can’t get mad when the audience gets into the…
To be fair, those were the only scenes in Baltimore.
See, what I took away from Sam’s rejection of the shield was that he wanted to be his own man with his own legacy. For Sam, being Falcon is not an apprenticeship he was biding his time with while waiting for Steve to retire. Becoming Captain America is not a promotion in his eyes. In his Smithsonian speech he mentions…
I think you’re underestimating how obsessed the ancient Greeks were with sex. The statue is a statue of Aphrodite, literally the goddess of beauty, love, sex and passion. Titillation is inherent in her portfolio and was very probably, almost definitely, part of the point of the statue. This is the goddess that a man…
You're aware that Alexandros of Antioch was an artist who worked on commission, right? It was the client who requested the sculpture and Alexandros was motivated by profit.
I can pretty much guarantee that if this guy had a Venus di Milo on his shelf it would also not be the original Venus di Milo and would in fact be a mass-produced copy.
