Little Women was nominated, and she was left out the best director category that time. 

There was room for more than one woman in the best director category, especially considering that Greta Gerwig, Emerald Fennell and Cecile Song all directed great films this year worthy of a nod. Only 8 women directors have ever been nominated for Oscars, ever. 

Thank you. Especially re: the virtue-signalling self-righteous idiots making this about Gaza lol I just can’t. 

1. I don’t think any of the performances in Barbie deserved to be nominated, and especially not America Ferrara (as much as I love her). But out of all of them, Gosling’s was the least undeserving. I liked Barbie, but I wanted to like it more. Sorry not sorry. 

I’m sorry but at this point any woman who’s heard of Armie Hammer and the accusations and is still willing to even go on a date with him, much less fuck him and let him tattoo them, deserves to be eaten. 

I don’t think you can directly compare to Ripley. Obviously Saltburn owes a lot to Ripley but Fennell injects her own grotesque originality into the movie that is far weirder than Ripley. It’s also an ode to a particular brand of upper class British eccentricity and the humour is distinctly British as well. And for…

Gen X here, watched Kids when it came out and yes it’s great, but so is Saltburn. 

Travis Barker wore that shirt for attention (clearly he’s learning from the garbage family he married into). Don’t give it to him.

Or, people who want to go see her can go in knowing full well she might be late, and decide if it’s worth it.

This. 

Aren’t they helping the ethnic cleansing by keeping their borders closed and letting them get killed by the thousands?

This whole thing is fascinating. Americans really will overconsume anything, just for the sake of buying shit. The experts are right - inflation (at least in the US) is your fault. Despite prices going up, you can’t help but keep buying shit you don’t need.

That face alone is a sex crime. 

So they’d rather sit by and watch them be ethnically cleansed in a more permanent manner?

One of my points is that it’s not just Israel that’s cynical when it comes to the fate of Palestinians. I also never said Sisi’s government was a great example of democracy either, far from it. There aren’t any of those in the region.

To clear out the population (unless by ‘clear out’ you mean killing them), neighbouring countries would actually have to be willing to take in Palestinians, but none of them want to. They care more about the Palestinian cause as a principle, than about Palestinians themselves. Also, Hamas emerged as an offshoot of the…

Now, I watched the trailer, and despite the fact that Shore bears a striking resemblance to Simmons (the voice isn’t bad either), I’m held back by a few things. First and foremost: the biopic is unauthorized. That’s right, Simmons—who’s chosen to live outside of the spotlight since 2014—hasn’t signed off on any…

There’s so much covert anti-semitism in progressive circles. And it’s crazy how quickly people revert to “secret Jewish conspiracies”.
