You’re totally right, I don’t think I can really argue that since I don’t know their intentions really.

They really haven’t. Its true that the original trangressive slant of their humor worked better when we were lambasting regressive social norms, but now that norms have become more progressive it has served as fertilizer for conservative/regressive attitudes. Being transgressive is no longer subversive in a good way.…

It amazes me that 10 years ago South Park was this liberal darling and now people shit on it for being full of false equivalencies, which is a complete misrepresentation.

Nice! Kudos to him. Man, it feels icky to be picky, especially after Skrein stepped out so gracefully, but since so much of the highlight was on the fact that Skrein was playing a Japanese American character, I was hoping they would spring for a Japanese American actor.

Can we give Master and Commander another shot? The one movie was pretty good, and you could easily make a series out of the books. No dragons and no tits, but...oh, forget it.

I think there’s a difference between what South Park does when they have a fight between two crippled characters that lifts directly from They Live or the fact that Timmy is a thinly veiled reference to a side comment in Phantasm and what Ready Player One offers, which is just Hey look!
