    I cannot logically disprove your original statement as it's a statement of opinion. I don't know whether it was generally well-received by critics and audiences and that doesn't impact my own opinion that it is not "a hot mess". You're essentially making an Appeal to the Majority argument now. I found it an excellent

    That doesn't work for countries with a lot of migration. USA, UK, Europe.

    I disagree. I found it a really fun and well put together dish of weird and wonderful characters. By the time you get to Chloë Moretz going "I'm a werewolf, mom - deal with it!" you're well into lamp-shading the absurdity of the film and you, or at least, I just roll with the fun.

    Okay, in order: Islam isn't a race. He didn't talk about banning Hindus, even though Pakistani and Indian are the same race. Turks are more white than Greeks, but the vetting would be applied more to the former than the latter. This is not about race.

    Were you looking for glitches like the same name recurring over and over? ;)

    I'm also 6'1" and I have once dated a girl who was 6' so occasionally taller than me in her big goth-metal boots. I was fine with it and she was lovely. But there have been a couple of other girls who were really tall - like 6'3" / 6'4" - and I found them sexy as Hell. Sadly, I never really got to know either of them

    You realise that Obama and Hilary were in favour of the same. Well, it was 700 miles rather than 900 miles and it was one of those massive Israel-Palestine style fences rather than a wall, but basically the same thing. So lets test out one of your statements. I'll take "openly racist" for ten. Give me an example of

    British people can be Jewish, too. Not every Jew has to be a stereotypical New Yorker.

    Returns didn't really cohere, but there was some good stuff in there.

    I'm the opposite. I can still watch the first one but Returns has a really strong motif of deformity equating to moral failure. I know it's easy to dismiss that if the view isn't shared by saying things like "But Max Shreck is a villain and not deformed", but it's a real and recurrent thing that strikes me watching

    Yeah, but the thing is, the first two movies had a lot of blue filter. Shumacker didn't use a lot blue filter. Blue filter is what distinguishes a campy silly giant duck from sinister silly giant duck.

    Loaded Weapon? If that's what the thing with Tim Curry as a girl-scout-disguised Austrian hitman was.

    The Riddler was by far my favourite part of that film. Unless we're allowing Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me in which case that is. But everything else is a distant third.

    Dark Shadows.

    In particular, the idea that they were feeding signals into his brain to make him think that he was making the choices to do what he was already doing. The fun-horrifying element of that being that the human brain does actually sort of work like that. There's a sort of loop where an action can be taken but the

    Yes, because murder is an excellent answer to racism. Executing people for their beliefs always stamps out a philosophy. Maybe we could have an arena and feed them to some lions.

    Anyone who has ever dealt with the media can tell you how easy it is to make someone or some group look stupid. You interview ten people and then show the clip of the dumb one lost for words. I recall some "Americans are so dumb" clip that did the rounds in the UK where people on the street of some American city are

    Racist whites have more in common with black folks than they'd readily admit.

    That's a good thing. It reminds people that racists are, in contradiction to the overwhelming love of demonization here, just people. Nobody is born racist. Nobody has a gene for racism that other more blessed people lack. Anyone can be a racist and good in some aspects of their life and bad in others. The attempt to

    You really believe that approximately 50% of US voters share the beliefs of the KKK? You must live in a state of permanent terror. Also, it is not possible that the KKK "may have decided the election". There are about 3,000 KKK members across the entirety of the whole USA in total. They are, as The Ghost of Eazy E
