I get what you’re saying but I certainly can’t find any calculus by which I can effectively disentangle the message from the art; they’re inextricably linked for me. Is Get Out a lesser film if you judge it purely on the merits of its nuts and bolts filmmaking craft and leave the political meaning out of it? Of…

Yes, it matters.

Er. I think you’re making the dire mistake of assuming that other people have the same wants and needs that you do. What is the correct approach for you is not necessarily the correct approach for anybody else, even if they are fictional characters.

The song reminded me of what BoJack told Sarah Lynn when she was a kid:

I’ve seen a lot of Diane hate around the internet (and a little bit on here) because people see her as ungrateful to Mr. Peanutbutter for his attempts to do nice things for her. I don’t think either of them is supposed to be the bad guy. Diane is passive-aggressive; lying and pretending to be in another country to…

“Is ironic bigotry from a comic still acceptable?” I think the key is that people should be able, at the end of the day, to distinguish your ironic bigotry from actual bigotry. And I don’t think you can do that simply through using absurd levels of hyperbole anymore, not when there are people online who legit talk…

Only just seen the movie, which I loved, but this point irritated me as well. Having a baby just seemed suicidal. It would have made more sense for the film to have her 3 or 4 months pregnant at the beginning of the movie, so that it was more of a done deal. Still great fun though.

I also get the impression that Gunn doesn’t need or want his friends to fall on their swords for him.

I’d just like to point out that the Jonathan Groff left running black-ish isn’t the same Jonathan Groff from FrozenLookingGlee, but the other one from behind the scenes on my fave sitcom ever - Happy Endings - which was also on ABC once upon a time.

That’s nice.

The entire script and acting of “Perverts are People Too.” Lowell’s facial expressions and reactions in the gay club, then they have the only scene of the season at his home (aka WASP repression/expectations central), his body language and the dialogue with his Mom’s butler, then they have revealing his “hidden”…

Bullshit. Pure, unmitigated horse crap. They didn’t vote for Trump because they thought he could help them, they voted for Trump because they thought (rightly) that he would punish the people they hated. They don’t want someone to throw them a life preserver, they’re just happy to see women and minorities tied to an…

Wow, a man feels emasculated and reacts poorly, so dump him?

That’s a little hypocritical and I want to explain why : You regularly see heartwarming stories which are unsubstantiated help improve the livelihood of public figures. Our political system specifically looks for the “Happy Family” image around a politician for that very reason. Even with that said, I think that if…

The post credits scene is kind of amazing, people claim it makes no sense, but I’m pretty sure they explain it in the main bulk of the movie. When they talk about how maybe they can get to another level of reality with words and save themselves that way.

OK, I just saw this on a BOGO deal and I couldn’t let it go. Yes, humans have needs. It’s called oral! Or butt stuff! And there still seemed to be considerable supplies! Maybe cut down a bit on the boning to keep apace with the condom supply! I mean, it was pretty well into the alien threat she got knocked up. It’s…

And my answer would be, so what?

I dont know why, but the funniest bit for me was about normal people being able to magically materialize cans of diet coke just to chuck at cars, which was such a wonderful little bit of absurdity that ties into the running thread of all of Mulaneys stand up that we live in a world filled with bizarre and outlandish…

This. Yours is a reasonable, thoughtful take on a complex issue. (NOTE: this is not acceptable to many.)

Caitlynn Jenner is a treasure trove of big easily highlighted things to dislike and mock, which is what makes the people who go out of their way to take her down a peg for being transgendered such massive assholes.
