I agree. The cancelation is less about when it came out, and more about it being really bad.

Perhaps because the answer is “no?” Read more

Ya know, crossovers start to lose their luster when every movie is a crossover.

Starlord being an obnoxious asshat is part of what makes him a fun character to watch. ;)

Yep, we really need to start realizing that the internet is a pretty bad representation of society as a whole. Like you said, most people aren’t going to see his politics/religious views as an issue. And lets not kid ourselves, a good number of people share them.

You dont have to believe everything in a religion to support it’s good works. Has he personally done anything to what you are equatinghim with? shall we look at your financial records and go down the rabbit hole? It’s just religious bigotry disguised as social outrage.

Agreed. If we’ve learned anything over the past 30 years, it should probably be that shaming people on the internet isn’t what’s actually going to lead people to changing their attitudes and behaviors. Instead, it just entrenches people into their silos, and leads to a tremendous backlash that is at least partly… Read more

I think that realistically, outside the internet-nerd community (of which I’m certainly a part, so I’m not knocking it), feelings aren’t likely to be strong enough to be mixed. Most people won’t really care about his political or religious inclinations.

Just when our leaders are saying it’s time for healing, Chris Pratt’s religion and political leaning become something to shame him about, once again? Hey, how about unity in this crappy Pandemic now that the political dust has settled? Overlooking others faults is a key to personal growth, and cooperation despite… Read more

That late? I’m guessing some holiday when everyone is distracted, he tries to “get away to celebrate” and detours to Moscow. Read more

OANN or RT would probably re-brand as The Trump Network and pay him a licensing fee for use of his name. No cash input on his part and no actual effort to make money.

That’s already happening. Read more

Actually.. What I expect to happen is between now and then, he will be going on some “goodwill” tours (Saudi, Russia, Philippians, Brazil, North Korea.. pretty much the who’s who of right wing authoritarian dictatorships) and simply won’t be back after the time is up.. claiming he’s on an indefinite “hunt” for Obama’s… Read more

Back in the day, rumor had it that when he was elected last time she re-negotiated the terms of the pre-nup. That it was part of what was going on while she stayed in NYC for Barron’s school year. It’s a little thing but one I would love to find out is true. Not that I have any love for Golddigger Birther Barbie.

I honestly worry he’ll try and run for Russia or Saudi and sell whatever he can for asylum. 

i don’t think he’s a flight risk.  he’ll have secret service protection for the rest of his life & i don’t think it’s likely he’ll get away from them long enough to jet off to saudi arabia or russia.

No, there’s a zero chance of divorce. I’m sure he’s got an ironclad pre-nup that guarantees her nothing. She sold her soul for that lifestyle.

No mention of Stardust makes me sad. I get that not everyone likes the adaptation but Strong is so damned good as Septimus.
