“Were there no Israel, there’s not a Jew in the world [that would] be safe”

Israel is an omelette that can’t be unscrambled. A two state solution is the only road forward. The alternatives are unthinkable. I support Palestinian statehood and for Israel to withdraw from the West Bank. I also want unrepentant fascists like Netanyahu to be punished for their crimes. Everyone needs to put…

I see a lot of folks calling out Gyllenhaal which I frankly find surprising given Fassbender, who once had a restraining order, is in the mix.

Michael Fassbender <-- this man

Populace.

Fucking good.

“The Arab countries who claim Palestine as their top priority come in and form a demilitarized zone between Israel and a free Palestinian state.”

I have no particular feelings about Sara as a person, I’m just here to note proper pronoun usage.

I’m a little rusty on this but does Drescher truly deserve a victory lap? Everything I knew about Drescher leading up to the strike suggests it was a success despite of her, not because of her. I vaguely remember her not being particularly aggressive or effective in handling the studios on other issues before the…

I know you’re having a laugh, but this isn’t going to negatively impact his pace as a film maker. It just means fewer jobs for the people who worked on his project. He’ll be able to make more films, faster and cheaper.

Stripped of the snark, that AI work DID take work from a fairly skilled artistic profession. It takes hours in the chair because getting the prosthetics right isn’t something that just happens.

I am so tired of the post-shame era, can we go back to when people had a modicum of embarrassment for being absolute next-level hypocrites?

I can respect your opinion on that, given Kali Reis is a newcomer to the craft, especially compared to the likes of McConaughey, Harrelson, Ali, McNairy, Farrell, etc. Personally I think Reis did great given she was going toe-to-toe with Jodi Fucking “Double Fisting Academy Awards” Foster and she started acting in…

Some clown was whining earlier this week about it and posted a list of like 20 “criticisms” he had with the show and most if not all could have been said about the first season.

Nic needs to take a good honest look at his True Detective output and STFU. He got lucky for season 1, faceplanted in his sophomore effort, and then cribbed his notes from season 1 for season 3. I certainly won’t be going out of my way to catch any of his future work.
