“Don’t be shitty to people” should be a baseline, but you should at least be able to manage “don’t be shitty to the person you specifically hired to make you look good in a movie.”

People are horrified whenever they ask me “who do you admire” and I reply “no one”.

We’re looking up to the wrong people.

In another comment he was talking about how Mr. Beast’s channel is objectively better than someone else’s because it made one guy a millionaire.

Another daily reminder that even the most average of average men can be more successful than the most hardworking women by default due to sexism.

Let’s be real, that can apply to every genre of music out there, country isn’t special like that. Among those that get any sort of attention, here are only a handful of real genuine artists among a sea of corporate stooges.

As a Nashvillian and a country music fan, I have to tell y’all something important, which is that Jason Aldean sucks ass. Absolute ass, and he always has. His music is completely shitty and has always pandered both in sound and lyrics to the lowest common denominator of country music fans. I haven’t heard this song

I was about to say I don’t remember it being marketed as a biopic.  It was a movie with him as a character.

Plus it’s a highly entertaining movie. Accurate? No. But a very nice family film, kind of like going to the circus with the realization you probably don’t want to see behind the scenes.

Jason Aldean is a dumb redneck piece of shit and he made a dumb redneck piece of shit song.  I dunno man, I gotta pick my battles and he doesn’t rate one.

As is typical with these slideshows, this is less “the 15 worst biopics of all time” and more “15 movies the author remembers and is pretty sure were biopics.”

But the desire for it to—that’s what this song is about.

It’s just the usual Conservative pining for a 1950's style America that never really existed and was an even worse place to live if you weren’t a white male.

Because they were our neighbors, and that was above any differences.

I dismissed the film when it came out based on reviews that said the same thing about its failure to correctly cover Barnum’s real life, but then I watched it on cable and was truly knocked out by it. I think that it might be Jackman’s best film. 

“The Greatest Showman” doesn’t fit here at all - in your own description you said it was highly-fictionalized. This film was not written to be a “biopic” and never advertised itself as such that I recall. 

“... the laptop thing is old.”

whew. I also commend her, but idk if I could keep playing into this if my child used me for right wing entertainment purposes rather than actually caring about what I said. 

As someone in their late forties reading this and learning about all of this labelling, that was my thought too.

This has some religious roots too, although it probably even predates organized Christianity.
