That is not at all how pants actually fit though.

Yes, but that rarely happens because gender norms. Society isn’t all the way there yet, which is why you still see people saying teenager boys are lucky when their 20-something teachers take advantage of their position of authority to sleep with them.

I don’t have a huge issue with a successful 25 yo and a successful…

Also, when you’re a teenager, it feels flattering to have an older guy interested, like it makes you cool and smart and beyond your years. It’s only when you’re an adult looking back on things that you realize how creepy it is.

He seems to be rich and, in all fairness, in pretty great shape for his age.

I’m pretty sure there was nothing in A Quiet Place about the monsters lacking smell. They were only lacking sight.

You find House sweet and puppy-eyed? Damn, I wouldn’t want to meet someone you’d call an asshole.

Kylo Ren is basically his character in Girls x 10 in a fantasy setting. Which is what’s interesting about Kylo Ren IMO (his anger is such a familiar kind of toxic masculinity. He really is emo Kylo Ren, the kind of guy who would wish his ex would die in a car crash).

That’s pretty defensible compared to jokes about molesting children.

I feel the same way about Wes Anderson’s newer stuff (last 10 years). I watch it noticing how beautiful and well crafted it is, but I’m not invested in the story or characters. I’m too busy noticing the trappings.
I think a lot of more “auteur” directors suffer this fate.

I liked TDK well enough at first, but the constant talk about how deep and awesome it was turned me against it. It came out when I was in college and was catnip for pretentious nerds who thought they knew everything.
It was fine.

I’ve lost interest in edginess more and more with every year since I turned 19 or so.

I, too, enjoy seeing which song they put with which clip, but I find it very annoying that I can’t set the remote down without hearing one of those songs.

But only one of those movies has dinosaurs.

This is true, but it goes both ways. A lot of creatives take any sort of criticism of their work incredibly personally.

Yeah, I would have loved that plot. After years of watching police procedurals, I am done with the “plays by their own rules” hotshot character. But that isn’t the movie.

I think the issue is tone more than anything. The message Poe should learn is from a serious, grounded movie. The scene where Holdo and Leie shrug…

But they ruin it by having her and Leia praising Finn in the end. Almost a great plot line. Ruined by sticking to bland tropes.

I also hated TFA. I was hating the new movies before it was cool!

It does still have dinosaurs in it.

If that was the case he could, God forbid, take some responsibility in his statement. By pinning everything on her, he makes himself seem even more guilty.

Women have been expected to comment on their shady male colleagues for awhile. Why not turn it around and put the onus on men for once?
