Breathtaking?….alright.

Thats a really interesting idea, so of course they'd never do it. What they actually did in this adaptation, swapping a japanese person's body for a synthetic caucasian body, is actuall a really interesting concept, but it was obvious that they didn't really want to engage with the implications of that idea.
But why? Just cause he told Morty that he only rescued him and Summer so he could take over the family and ultimately get his hands on Mulan Mcnugget sauce? That just sounds like the kind of bullshit he's always said.
Everyone keeps saying this, but I don't really agree. Rick has always been a horrible, horrible person who treats everyone around him like shit, but it's been suggested before that Rick's antisocial behaviour is just a defense mechanism, and at his core he really does care for Morty and Summer. He just wouldn't…
Maybe we should be thankful they didn't cast a Japanese actress, cause then the lesson would have been "don't cast non-white actors".
Yeah, it was fine. I said this somewhere else, but it's basically GITS for babies. It simplified the themes of the original into something much broader, and dumber, but it doesn't really do anything to disrespect the source material.
The dialogue was atrocious, but it was passable. The bar has been set very low lately, especially compared with this directors last movie. Honestly though, I didn't think it was bad. It mostly respected the source material, and wasn't completely brain-dead. I was just glad it told a fairly coherent and simple…
…"the only way the ending could've properly landed was her re-discovering her identity as Motoko and going back to Hanka to be given a body truly representative of her racial identity and therefore replacing Scarjo with a Japanese actress."
I thought Batou was very nicely treated. The actor who plays him is pretty good, he's just a big, warm lug of a guy. And he has a basset hound.
More like the Honky Corporation amiright?
This movie sucked! Hilariously overhyped on its gore. It did have things I liked; the actress who plays the protagonist is very good; it had a few great images (the best being that early scene where the freshmen are all crawling out of the elevator, like cattle); and the movie starts very strong, juxtaposing it's…
It really isn't. After all the buildup and rumors of audience members throwing up, the movie itself is so tame. I kept waiting for the movie to deliver, and it just never does. At a certain point, the constant teasing and withholding became genuinely hilarious. I almost broke out laughing when the sisters broke…
Ive been meaning to check out the Love Witch, but Im inclined to believe you and may skip it. Because I just saw Raw, and boy, it sucked.
I don't see why it would be an especially difficult medium, so long as the initial clay sculpt is good.
Yeah thats the gross thing about it, the fact that nobody wanted to sit next to her. So to me it just sounds like the guy was trying to alleviate an uncomfortable situation, and failing spectacularly by trying too hard and drawing too much attention to it.
It's weird to me that Alston found that interaction so delightful, because it sounds awful. A white guy pushes past a train full of people just to sit down next to a black lady, then makes awkward conversation with her for four stops as if they were best friends? It's an empty seat on a train, you're not a hero for…
That whole thing didn't make a lot of sense, did it? Negan gives her a choice; let the zombie eat her, or kill the zombie with the knife, which means she wants to serve Negan and the saviours? Thats some flawless logic right there.
Despite his betrayal, I still really like Eugene as a character. In a show that values badassary over everything, where nobody ever acknowledges their own weakness, here's a guy who has accepted that he's a total coward. And though he's struggled against it bravely, theres nothing he can really do about it. His…
Now I wan't an all Vin Diesel version of the JL.
QUIET YOU! (Throws shoe at dirtside)
