Dear Corporate Publicists, the definition of “diverse” is “including or involving people from a range of different social and ethnic backgrounds and of different genders, sexual orientations, etc.” Any single individual, therefore, cannot be “diverse.”
We “can’t have nice things,” but we’re getting a Mr. and Mrs. Smith reboot “straight out of our fanfic dreams”? Which is it?
Uh... I’m on Disney’s side in this particular case, but it’s not as though they aren’t the Empire of showbiz.
Now playing
“In all seriousness, though, “Don’t Fence Me In” is one of the better episodes of Walker so far.”
“her acting sounds terrible.” - I mean, it certainly wasn’t anything special, but some people in real life are also not very expressive or interesting. The bigger issue is the character didn’t have any discernible purpose aside from “the walking cliche of the jaded war veteran who cares for nothing until he meets a…
“the company was presumably hoping she’d manage to stop the Tweeting Disease before it reached the terminal stage” - or maybe they wanted to finish airing the show before firing one of its stars; the fact that they announced a Rangers of the New Republic series without mentioning her was definitely eyebrow-raising.
“Saying, “Garsh, I just DON’T understand why she was SO worried about her career. Why was she so concerned?” - That’s not what Paul Kinsey said. Kinsey didn’t say anything about her reaction; he only doubted Ninja Robot Pirate’s assumption that nude photos are, indeed, still threats to women’s careers. You’re looking…
“Then isn’t the obvious answer that it depends on the woman and what kind of career she has?” - Maybe, but that’s not what you asked. And the notion that Manson releasing these photos would harm the career of the Westworld star mostly just confirms what an idiotic creep he is.
“Are you seriously saying that it wouldn’t be upsetting for someone’s abuser to put their underage photos on the internet where they would exist forever?” - No, he’s questioning Ninja Robot Pirate’s assertion that “it’s unfortunately still safe to bet on a woman’s career being damaged by the release of nude photos,”…
“The idea that people are framing this around how it might affect her career is frankly disgusting.” - According to Wood’s quote, Manson framed it that way, and thus, it’s part of the story. I agree with your take on the threat itself, but it’s no good complaining about people questioning the logic of Manson’s threat…
“I feel like it’s unfortunately still safe to bet on a woman’s career being damaged by the release of nude photos.” - Follow up question... why? Any recent examples? (Not that this in any way lessens the horrific nature of the alleged threat.)
So that’s why the Biden team brought them back for the inauguration!
That’s not how you read it, because, not being an AV Club writer, you aren’t required by house dogma to think nothing but 100% adulatory thoughts about Captain Marvel in every instance, even when an onscreen character is visibly pissed at her. :P
Yeah, the writer seems more pissed that he played a clip of Rambeau’s performance in the Hex without her permission than the ongoing torture of several thousand people. Hayward is definitely going too far, but for all he knows, Wanda might be on the verge of permanently frying people’s minds here.
Perhaps they start young in Texas? The math checks out...
Yes, but there were still two nations to occupy, new bases overseas to man, the Soviet Union to keep an eye on, and lots of service members whose drafting/enlistment was up, and were due to come home if they so chose. There was honor in joining the military in ‘45, and there’s honor in it now. (And the Post-9/11 GI…
“I will not apologize for the endless OTH knowledge that is still rattling around my brain all these years later!” - And I will not apologize for demanding to know how many roundhouse kicks are in each episode, and, if none, howling where the hell are they.
“Which war is she referring to? Because we’re in, like, a bunch of them.” - Er...
