When representation of a group is absent or near absent, then any representation will be welcomed at first; even if it is stereotypes and #face-acting by another ethnicity. As time goes on and representation increases so the quality of that representation needs to improve too or appreciation will drop. The Simpsons is…
How much of a real hero was he (vs just the only representation around) though given a large part of his post Cosby show fame came from his trashing of ‘urban youths’ and his non threatening sweatshirt dad appearance.
I can’t believe people would rather shit indoors than eat food.
In other words she continues to be a parent to her children and love them no matter how old they are - as most parents do - and he doesn’t give a fuck about them now they’re old enough to see he is a douche and no longer worship the ground he walks on.
This is going on in so-called “Christian” communities, too. Here’s a recent story from the Kansas City Star about parents who are trafficking their underage, pregnant daughters to Missouri so they can take advantage of lax child marriage laws. What these cases have in common are that: 1) They involve statutory rape,…
There’s some truth to this, but he’s always been an unrepentant racist.

Yes, absolutely. There’s the scene where she’s talking to Mrs. Doubtfire (very private thoughts about her marriage) and she says “I didn’t like the person I had to be when I was around him.” or something like that. In other words, she had to be his mother. She had to be the killjoy. And the whole time he’s getting…

Sorry you got cancer but you’re not an awesome husband(or even decent) for lying to…
And not even getting into prestige tv “lane bitches”
JERRY MAGUIRE IS A GARBAGE MOVIE KILL IT WITH FIRE
First, they haven’t done anything yet. I’m withholding judgment until I see action, not talk. It’s easy and fashionable now to say this stuff. It’ll be a lot harder when they’ve got to give more lines to a non-white character or take less money on a set so that others can have fair pay.
“Non perfect allies”? I get your overall point, and I’m happy about the inclusion riders too, but neither of these men have ever been allies.
Right? Why are we supposed to give the most praise and credit for the least work. We’re not potty training a toddler.
Acting like someone who has Finally done the right thing is a saint is not an accurate way to go forward. If they are not grown up enough to acknowledge their past mistakes, even in the face of them Finally doing something right, this wouldn’t stick anyway
Can he just.... not?
Literally everything about this movie is, “Ugh, THIS asshole again.”
