Wow this is really jumping the gun A.V. Club. 

I literally choked on my breakfast reading that.

Audiences actually don’t like when stuff is over-explained to them or it comes across as tho the creator thinks audiences are stupid.

So yah an entire film of ‘too-on-the-nose’ commentary was... a lot.

I would have been okay will him constantly pumping out Talledega Nights. I totally agree.

Adam McKay exists in this weird space where I can’t say I like any of his films but Ill still probably see this out of some misguided obligation to Robert Pattinson. It’s how she goes.

Sometimes I scroll threw these comments until I hit one that I find that must’ve been written by such a creepy neckbeard incel that it makes me want to leave the page and find another activity. Congratulations sir, your comment won the “I’m gonna look at something else now” prize!

Ew stop talking. The “na na you can’t catch me I’m in another country” isn’t the defense you think it is. It doesn’t discredit anything the person said against you. Like.... are you trying to compare yourself with the Tinder Swindler....? I’m sorry to you think being in another country makes someone innocent of…

Woof. Anytime a man insists that women can’t be friends “because they’re competiting!” I puke inside my mouth.

mixed feelings here

very true

Exactly this. Exaaaaaactly this.
This almost definitely has to do with his Blackness and the size of his muscles. You cannot convince me otherwise here.

I’m a bit surprised by how many people on here are immediately calling for him to be canceled on such little details. Kinda feels like casual racism to immediately assume the beefy Black guy who just played the villain in two major franchise tentpoles must have committed this crime when he’s saying he didn’t.

It’s…

I just got tuned into the film “The Last Black Man In San Francisco”. That film slaps hard.

faith in humanity equaling nothing wrong ever happens in the world is basically the same take that racist white dudes have when they can’t look out their own window and claim that racism must therefore not exist. This is naive/stupid/dangerous thinking...

No worries in that department just take a note out of the book of racists, anti-vaxxers, and a lot of religions and just ignore when bad things happen and then claim they dont happen often.

Newsflash: faith in humanity leads to disappointment, a bit naive Id say. Just have faith in yourself and your loved ones. Don’t…

Yah that really stood out to me too (jesus fucking christ)

amen

google stockholme syndrome and you might feel better.

I hope this screws with all those people who convinced themselves they liked Quantumania. Does anyone know what Stockholme Syndrome is? Any of those Quantumania true believers should look up Stockholme Syndrome..... just saying....

Yah when did this start like ten years ago? This wasn’t at all the case before. Any audience member getting confused by a re-casting is reeeeeeally assuming the audience is stupid.

I hope they remember how cleanly they did it for Edward Norton and Terrance Howard. That is how it is done.
