Because for all the different palates for comedy, there’s some person out there that really thinks their distaste for said palate is an endearing quality anybody besides them cares about.

Indeed. The fact that a bunch of people are clutching pearls that a racist caricature offends the people it makes fun of is really fucked.

I think you’re totally correct- no, wait, I know you’re totally correct. I don’t think there’s any issue with a bunch of white American writers creating a character purely based on skin-deep stereotypes, because Apu is beloved in his community. It’s like that Ashton Kutcher popchips ad, there’s nothing wrong with his…

If you can’t see that, then you need to check your eyesight, buddy.

All the same, I’m always happy to see people who enjoy Cats! It’s a weird CG bastardization of a weird fae bastardization of a fascist’s feverish fancy, and I enjoyed every minute of seeing it in theatres. I think it was also the last film I saw in theatres, which sums up 2020 hellworld pretty well.

He was tolerable as Bustopher, but I am unsure if that’s just because he had to share screentime with Rebel Wilson’s Jennyanydots- she was the worst part of that film.

What’s funny is that jegrouchy tried to lambast over how the article had not one detail correct, and proceeded to make an argument with no valid point (which I stand by, you just added words to their whataboutism and just reinforced my point all the more). I think it’s all the more funny that you may have some great…

Yeah, thanks for explaining, I didn’t know much on that so I just gave them the benefit of doubt- even with such a benefit I don’t think their sentiment is very valid.

a) You seem to be right about the water thing, it’s aimed at political organisations to avoid creating biases in those waiting in line (fair enough)

Fair enough, I totally agree with you on that front.

Is that some sort of defense for Rogen? Because there were plenty of people in Weinstein’s orbit that got shit for ignoring his abuse, like Damon & Affleck, and it was warranted. Same with Epstein, the degree of people who stayed linked to him after his trafficking minors charge is astounding; he maintained a strong…

It should be considered charity work that you gave any attention to that trite, sexist shithead. I’m genuinely curious how much information FeministonFire is operating on when they infantilize Yi, declared her less brave, put an expiry date on calling out toxic/abusive behaviour in Hollywood, and painted Yi as…

I also wonder what would’ve needed sacrificing for IOI to have the budget to animate the cutscenes; Hitman 2's level design was on par with the first game, and I absolutely loved getting the additional level releases.

Carey Mulligan has been absolutely killing it since the Doctor Who episode “Blink”; I love that her work has constantly taken the most surprising twists and turns- Drive, Promising Young Woman, Great Gadsby, Shame, etc.

Yes, this. It’s an easy thing to forget, and an important thing to remember.

I was gonna say that I’d love if Jonah, Baron, Hampton, Felicia, and Patton would still be involved, and lo and behold!!

He really did get a taste of that- The Daily Show had a lot of scrutiny over it’s continual lack of hiring female and/or BIPOC talent, and Jon Stewart himself really fucked up the situation with Wyatt Cenac. The latter was definitely an eye-opener for him though, and I think it was a great example of an older white…

I’m sorry buddy, but if that’s your conclusion, it seems to me that you’re more than ready to defend the guy. Your verdict makes sense if it was one person making accusations that are suspect, but Whedon has MULTIPLE accusations of toxic behaviour and abuse from cast and production teams from Angel, Buffy, Firefly, and…

Was it? Because all I can think is that beyond Martin Short’s natural charisma, the whole thing is pretty unintentionally dark, when you know it’s just to make fun of a well-known personality. I can’t imagine what it would be like to be in that writer’s room while they came up with that episode, did nobody feel gross…
