I think that’s right. Or, maybe, that the public has only gone so far when it comes to #MeToo. It was easy-ish to get people on board with hating Harvey Weinstein — he’s a bloated, grotesque studio executive who preyed on women in obvious ways. But it doesn’t necessarily follow that people aghast at Weinstein’s…

Correct.

1. People are desperate to find a case to undo the gains of MeToo and will amplify any edge case they can.

He’s mocking those comedians.

I guess those actors will just wing it...

Ages ago, our old pal Nathan Rabin wrote about Dave Foley’s struggles with his child support payments in Canada, and how he bottomed out showing his penis in Uwe Boll’s Postal.

From what I’ve read, Foley’s financial problems are resolved and he’s in a much better place right now in his life. So I like to imagine he…

I think her powers are kind of tied to her personality and story and that is a big part of why she is such a fan favorite. I hope whatever they come up with is even half as endearing, but I have my doubts.

Let’s count ‘The Real Ghostbusters’ as one giant movie. 

Alternatives.

Expertly presented this story in the clickbait-iest way possible. I’m almost impressed.

This comment section is making me raise an eyebrow, because the case is now turning into “Ugh they’re both terrible”, which may be so, but in terms of the physical evidence of all this, there is WAY more evidence against Heard.

Style guide question - does he really have to be referred to as “accused” when he publicly admitted that the accusation was true? I don’t even think the usual concern about a libel suit would apply here.

That’s the bigger deal. It’s almost not even about him any more, it’s about the fact that the Grammys voters defiantly declared that it sure as FUCK wasn’t gonna be about his victims.

And I know half of America’s response to stating it as such is “And?”. Which just takes us back to the “I don’t how to explain that you…

I don’t want to delve into the question of whether a confessed sex pest should get to win any awards ever again, but I can say that I still think he’s gross, and that if I were in a position to vote for him to win an award I don’t think I could bring myself to do it, and that I can see how if I were one of the women…

For what it is worth, Reeves actually specifically said that they didn’t do the Joker cameo to set him up as the next villain, but rather because they considered that it is important to have the reminder of that presence. To acknowledge that whatever Batman achieves, his true nemesis waits in the wings. Which is why I…

One of the best thrillers I have ever seen:

Encanto was very pretty movie that made no innovations, pushed no envelopes, tried nothing new, and will not stand the test of time.

The funny thing is more and more “live action” movies are actually becoming animated movies. Like how many scenes in Spider man No Way Home were completely done in CG?

Correct on all counts. I’d only like to continue the thought by pointing out that Wolfwalkers losing to Soul was an even bigger injustice last year.

That category has, sadly, become little more than an advertisement for the latest Disney movie, which are mostly children’s movies. It’s a complete lack of imagination from the Academy to fail to recognize the innovation happening in the animation sphere, and it’s, sadly, part of a larger trend of lack of appreciation…
