Okay, but can we also have an Abdulrahman Al AwlakI day? You know, balance it out?

Pounded in the Butt by my Sentient Gay Box Office Returns
"Handsome mummies" sound like something that would be slamming Chuck Tingle in the butt
Somehow I think I can handle my guilty conscience that Time Warner and Jeff Bezos or making a few less dollars a month because I share a password.
I do find it a bit odd that Whoopi is often the go-to person for stuff like that given the Ted Danson blackface incident she had a part in in the 90s. Or just like, all of her opinions the last few years.
I don't care that much about Disney in particular, but it's been getting downright impossible to actually find films I want to watch on Netflix the last couple years. I end up just renting (or pirating) most things separately because all of the old movies keep going away for more lame-ass "original programming." I'll…
I just don't think it's that surprising. He was far and away the main character of the entire first seven seasons before that, and for that matter the character the writers relied on the most for funny lines. Since they no longer had a "main" star in the last couple seasons it makes sense that the dialogue between…
I'm….not sure if you're alluding to something? I did find it difficult to watch?
In fairness, that probably fairly describes SNL throughout most of its existence, including frankly right now.
Yeaaaaaaaah while I think the reaction to Pat is a little overblown although understandable, that film is really really disgusting. Not to mention, the sequel was incredibly racist and I thought so even when I first saw it as a teenager.
In fairness to Psycho, he wasn't just any cross-dresser; he believed that he was acting through his mother specifically. I get what you're saying though. I think Silence of the Lambs is a good film, and still is to this day, but it was problematic in the sense that there was so little representation that someone could…
Hell, I liked her on The Daily Show (liked….not loved. She was solid but never one of my favorites on the show, despite being on it for so long) and even really liked her show at first, but the entire existence of her show just seems to be left-punching at this point. I mean, yeah she rags on Trump, but it is from the…
My initial instinct is definitely that Soloway is overreacting to something that was probably, at most, just a little bit thoughtless and not even meant to relate to trans people. But the comparison to Blazing Saddles doesn't hold water. Blazing Saddles was a pretty obvious satire of racism, with an obvious moral. It…
Didn't King of the Hill have some pretty stereotypical asian characters in it, though? And I would say even the main characters were stereotypes to a certain point, although less so than The Simpsons. (Mind you, I personally couldn't get into King of the Hill…so sue me.)
It's a dumb joke, but to sort-of defend the writers here, around that time they thought it was super funny to have characters pull their collar and make a Jerry Lewis sound, or say "mmmm that's good _______" in their best Jerry Lewis voice, in every single episode. It was pretty repetitive and annoying, but I don't…
The main characters on a tv series had the most dialogue on that series. What a shocker.
I would have assumed they'd be pretty wealthy off the backs of ongoing royalties and stuff. I might be wrong in this case, but it is still weird to me that the guy I was responding to seemed so intent on defending a person who literally just murdered a homeless guy. I'm pretty damn poor but there are few people I…
Eh, fair enough. I still find it weird that someone would go so out of their way to justify murdering a homeless person, though.
Although I get what you're saying, what you're describing was true for him decades ago. And while it's still true for many kids now, THIS guy is an incredibly wealthy musician who has presumably not had to work an actual job in decades. We're talking about a rich celebrity, not an actually underprivileged person. By…
No, I get that. I said above that I don't expect the most cultural sensitivity from these films given what they are tributing. I'm guessing most of us would look askance at a white archeologist stealing precious artifacts from indigenous populations if it were to happen in real life now. I'm just saying that even…
