The dead end was frustrating, because, as a fat feminist, I was hungry to find out who the original poster could be so I could then eat them.

No one? Not the fundamentalist cults that say a woman can’t be raped by her own husband?

Yeah, I admit I’d buy the authenticity of Japan owning its responsibility if they discussed this (and other WW2 Japanese atrocities) in schools or the wider society, like, at all. I heard about Hiroshama very, very frequently when I lived there (which is fair) and yet any mention of Nanking drew blank faces.

This is only for the South Korean women and it’s taken all these decades for even this much responsibility to be taken. What about the women of all the other countries under Japanese control at the time? This was a wide-spread system. I’d bet most of the women didn’t even survive their treatment.

Do the surviving victims agree that it’s “irreversibly solved” or is that just the words of some politician who wants them to shut up already?

Well we have the same crowd here trying to downplay slavery in the US rewriting textbooks.

This is too sudden to feel authentic. It feels like when a hotel throws in a too-ripe fruit basket and some stale chocolates because a worker barged into your hotel room accidentally at 5 am and saw you naked(true story). It’s too little, too late. Even many liberal Japanese people believe that this is all a made-up…

It is. There is a Statue of a young girl siting and staring outside of the Japanese Embassy in Vietnam in remembrance of them.

Only because they waited until 99.9% of victims had died.

That’s $41 per woman forced into sex slavery, seventy years after the war ended. In 1942 dollars, that would be, what, a few cents? That’s bullshit.

The paychecks from this were disproportionate, as unknowns Daisy Ridley and John Boyega made about $200,000 apiece, Oscar Isaac and Adam Driver made something more like $750,000, and Harrison Ford made something more like $20,000,000. All the actors get some sort of bonus if the film makes more than a billion dollars,…

They’ll be well taken care of. I know Ford got $38mil upfront but Boyega and Ridley were likely in the $1-2mil range and they’ll make that a hundred times over if Force Awakens continues on this track.

It’s almost as if, when you make a movie that is good and that has women and people of color in key roles, women and people of color will go see it and white men won’t be scared away either.

She actually had a Complex Migraine. With a “complex migraine” symptoms can include weakness, loss of vision, or difficulty speaking in addition to a headache – often mimicking a stroke.

FYI, this woman was having a stroke you jackass.

That's because it's actually not particularly great, and you're not blinded by nostalgia.
It's good, but not....fantastic.
Leans a bit much in the "interactive movie" direction, rehashes some of the same story ideas from FF6, and the graphics that once made it notable are now kinda...terrible.

I'm absolutely in the minority here because a lot of people are blinded by nostalgia, but man I HATED FF7. I hated it when it came out, I hate it even more now because people still blind themselves to all of its short comings. Cloud was a whining asshole who made that game excruciating for me. Everyone's obsession…

You should notate that Lunar is playable on PSP(physical/digital)/PS Vita (digital), Phantasy Star IV is available on the Sonic Ultimate Genesis Collection on XBox 360/PS3, and Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky is available digitally on PS Vita.

In this game you get to have a slap fight on a giant cannon.
