Some people use English degrees for good, some people use them for...well, this kind of thing.
Good camp is actually hard to pull off, shitty movies with low effort scripts are not camp, they’re shitty movies with low effort scripts.
Trying to hold this up as “camp” always seemed like try hard. It’s lazy, uninspired, and just outright poorly made in a lot of spots. Camp requires intentionality. It’s okay to enjoy shitty things without needing to justify it, that’s why McDonald’s is still in business.
This kind of discounts how it is exactly like other bad movies. Poor writing, zero common sense, bland characters, etc. etc.

It’s gonna be funny to watch like most of a year of internet weirdos absolutely melting down about this only to have the movie come out and she’s just part of the setup to establish that this FF is from an alternate universe or timeline or whatever.

Sorry , as someone who voted in that referendum , most of that is bollocks.
Hello, fellow humans! My name is Mr. Realguy Notabear, and I am a professional salmon fisherman. I would like to volunteer my human services in removing the accidentally deposited lunch from this creek. I will use my large, clawed, human hands to swipe the fish out of the creek, then remove them professionally,…
I think you’re 100% correct about Gin. Toranaga seemed ready to leave before she brought up his plan, or lack of one. Also, I have to assume the failed assassination attempt was Idiot Son’s idea. He was talking about it in the hot springs before being overheard by Saeki.
the intent is definitely obvious, and i was a bit surprised that it was only addressed here at face value. the Gin scene is the whole point on which this episode pivots. the entire hour is full of scenes of women asserting their power in the world of men, and Gin arguably has the most impressive display of all. in…
So just because I have read a few recaps of this episode now and this seems to be mentioned in none of them, am I insane or is there way more to that conversation with Gin and Toranaga than people seem to be noticing?
