My wife would vastly prefer the bears...

I mean suer, but not really the point. Even if Noah’s ancestors had been directly rescued from the Nazis by allied forces, just because one can look back and justify the actions in one war doesn’t mean that one must then be in favor of *all* wars.

Jesus 1989? Of course I’m always surprised when I see that the majority of Americans only thought that interracial marriage was morally acceptable in the mid-80s or so.

Yeah that shit didn’t happen in 1933. Stop being a stupid fucking troll. The parallels between Germany circa 1933 and the US today are of course not exact (Germany had a collapsing economy to start with), but if you can’t see the rise of violent nationalism as a parallel you are being willfully ignorant.

Sorry, your user name has to stand on its own. I’m not googling every user name to see what clever thing it might reference...

No, it’s perfectly adequate to describe the legal definition of what he did. It doesn’t describe his actions really at all.

That may be technically correct, but it is definitely worse headline writing since it completely misrepresents what happens (if I read that I’d assume that someone punched someone). 

Of course not. It’s just that part of the contract would allow Disney to mo-cap all of his moves and be able to use that mo-cap for other movies, video games, or whatever, without any further payment to Li. That doesn’t prevent Li from continuing to do them, but I can understand why someone wouldn’t want to make that

Yeah, I agree with that. One of the problems with making sequels is that after Neo “ascends” (or whatever), he becomes a lot less interesting and relatable. Seeing how other people react to his existence is a lot more interesting than anything that *he* is going through. Dr Manhattan in Watchman is kind of similar

Don’t you understand that when white men are angry they are proudly standing up for their rights as Americans, but when, well, any one else is angry, they are a crazed mob?

And a willful disrespect for gravity.

I just want to say that I’m tickled that a veteran uses “GodDamnTheseElectricSexPants” as their handle. Are those military-issued electric sex pants?

What is it with the French inventing new stories and tacking them on to old mythologies (Lancelot was tacked on to Arthurian legend well after their origin by Chrétien de Troyes – though admittedly that was still ~800 years ago)

I’m not sure how much recovering he’s going to do when he’s lying helpless on the ground while the other guy is hammering his temples.

Daredevil S2 is I think my second least favorite marvel season (though a pretty big gap back to Iron Fist S1). I haven’t seen Punisher fwiw, but I’ve seen everything else.

Yeah. That would have been perfect. Duncan’s sheer physical size and incredible charisma always made him seen like a legend come to life, making even roles like Kingpin in the mostly terrible Affleck Daredevil pretty enjoyable to watch. Would have been great as John Henry.

(my exact reaction)

A vacation where you evolve?

What’s this malarkey?

Is someone forcing you to eat broccoli? Should we call someone?
