Blaming the schools is, in fact, exactly what the right wing wants. See also the entire made-up "politically correct" bugaboo that Trump rode to victory.

It amazes how many people would straight-facedly parrot the "a candidate can't control who endorses them" line while voting for Trump. Like, sure, that's literally true but maybe you could examine why they got the endorsement? Nah, let's just flush the world down the goddamned toilet instead.

Or just a retitling?

Limits of Control is certainly not for everyone, but I enjoyed it quite a bit and I know others did as well.

Permanent Vacation is the only one I didn't love, and I think it's important to keep in mind that it's his first film.

It can be two things.

This one had the generic "we heard you liked these actors and dug that Gravity space struggle for survival stuff,…

And a failure to acknowledge or properly delve into what that behavior means? Kind of also a part of it.

OK!

Yeah, I think the key mistake they made here was one of laziness, really. They recognized that two very problematic Asian characters exist in Dr. Strange's core set of characters. With Wong, I'd say they stuck the landing — the deferent Asian manservant is now a knowledgable ally*. But with The Ancient One, they…

Disqus's comment-collapsing is the enemy of ^F.

I still love the moment in Parks & Rec where someone asks Andy (a very freshly toned Chris Pratt, shortly after filming The Hurt Locker) how he suddenly got so fit.

Lies Inc. started life as a short story and was expanded to a novel, and you can really see the seams where the same author added a bunch of material while in a very different headspace from where it started.

You should relax a little. It's bit of gentle rib-pokery at the group that gets, like, all the roles in Hollywood that aren't "magical negro" or "sassy sweatshop employee who's really good at math and cooks an amazing curry"*, not some horrible parade of white guilt or white-shaming or whatever the Breitbartians are…
