You guys are like vegans. Nobody will bring it up, but you’ll let us all know nonetheless.

Hating Taylor Swift is completely rational. She’s an actual snake that loves to play the victim. She is white mediocrity in corporeal form.

It wasn’t more “deeply flawed” than any other seasons of Star Trek. We’re just nostalgic about the old series so we overlook all the issues.

Seems like the only relation to the novel is that it is *set* in Hill House and that’s about it. Never thought that we’d get a Hill House Expanded Universe ™ but it is 2018 after all.

“it had stood for eighty years, and might stand for eighty more”

“Other people did something bad so I should be able to do something bad.”

That’s you. That’s what you sound like. This is a child’s morality.

Killmonger literally wants to be a white supremacist. That’s all he knows. That’s why he’s choking grandmas and ranting about murdering children.

It’s like Franz Fanon said, the slave not only fantasizes about killing the master but replacing the master, which is just a continuation of the old corrupt system and is…

I simultaneously want this, but also don’t want The Silmarillion to be shit all over.

Stuff like sexiShelob in Shadow of War does not bode well.

Time to party like it’s 1938?

I feel like I am going to be sick of the requisite edgy-hipster-backlash that this movie will inevitably generate. 

Is the new thing now? Assuming that because someone might have different aesthetic tastes than you they must “paid”? You couldn’t possibly be wrong, right?

Heath Ledger as the Joker sounded really stupid too. You haven’t even seen it. STFU.

Never thought there would so many people who apparently hate the idea of being…

Why are you perplexed? Often times the people who compile the trailers are not the people who made the movie. There are plenty of movies with amazing trailers that turn out to be garbage and vice versa. That’s pretty much been happening since movies became a thing. 

Exactly. One of the main criticisms of TFA was that it was too derivative. There’s no way to win.

Everyone went for seven films literally not giving a shit about fidelity to Newtonian physics, but now all of the sudden everyone is Stephen fucking Hawking all of the sudden.

This is exactly why people are suspicious about the motivations around the hostile reaction to TLJ. 

“who can’t see the movie’s legitimate flaws”

There are legitimate criticisms you can make about TLJ, but I have yet to hear a criticism about TLJ that you cannot also make about ESB.

All the sudden everyone seems to be demanding fidelity to Newtonian physics and respect for the exact, mathematical specifics of…

It’s not a rationalization. Contrary to popular belief and movies/tv shows, you don’t die instantly in space. Depending on conditions (sunlight, radiation, oxygen supply) you could actually survive for up to a minute, but be pretty banged up.....which Leia was.

No, you actually have to do the work yourself and make an argument. Telling someone to “google it” means you’ve lost. Literally, none of these things are plotholes.

At some point in time, the internet redefined “plot-hole” to mean something that was just unexplained or inconsistent which is fundamentally not what a…

At some point in time, the internet redefined “plot-hole” to mean something that was just unexplained or inconsistent which is fundamentally not what a plot-hole is.

Hence the reason you have people saying things like Holdo not telling Poe about the plans are a “plot hole” (rather than just communication protocol a…

“I think if Luke had an actual, honest-to-goodness lightsaber battle with Kylo, there wouldn’t be AS MUCH hate towards his character as there is”

I am glad you’ve reduced this down to the five-year-old-boy logic that it is.

“There weren’t enough explosions and stuff!!!!”

Lightsaber battles aren’t interesting because they…

Not that it matters because Star Wars physics have always been a clusterfuck (and that never seemed to bother anyone before TLJ, but now everyone is Stephen Fucking Hawking all of the sudden), but since you’re nitpicking so will I: The visual dictionary specifies that the bombs have magnetic sensors.

I fail to see how…

So I had someone from Vietnam marry into my family. She says that, amongst later generations in particular, there is much more of a “blame war for being bad” ethos rather than anyone specifically. She said US veterans who come back to visit are often treated like minor-celebrities, are routinely stopped in the streets…
