Sorry, but in a world where people are dying of starvation, I can’t be bothered to get too upset about a society that is actively trying to take away women’s bodily autonomy.

I believe its appeal comes from the fact that it’s a great “background movie.” There really isn’t a plot, more just loosely threaded together vignettes, so a lot of people throw it on during holiday celebrations. You can tune in for 15 minutes, walk away, come back, etc. I honestly don’t think I’ve watched it cover to…
Gregory Pecs?
I don’t think it’s controversial to point out that the Japanese were fucking brutal in WWII. As they were retreating from Pacific islands ahead of the U.S. Marines, they would just torch POWs rather than leave them behind. I’m not going to pretend U.S. soldiers were choirboys but WWII had an unusually nasty set of…
Prior to Hitler turning on the Soviets, Stalin used the opportunity to gobble up part of Poland, then executed every Polish officer the NKVD could get their hands on (see Katyn Massacre), then forcefully annexed the Baltic republics (all the while wiping out anyone who could offer resistance and doing his best to…
We just thought they were mad about black elves in Rings of Power. This would be some next level racist rage.
So that’s another one-off spinoff that we need from the show... Or just give us an anthology series with Nikki/Pug, Madisynn/Wong(ers) and Titania segments.
Seconded! And if it causes a lot of racist brains to explode, I’m all for it.
BvS and JL were trash, but (I know it’s kind of a hot take), I honestly like Man Of Steel. Don’t get me wrong, it had problems (the neck snap naturally, I’m honestly okay with the much derided Kevin Costner Jonathan Kent) but overall I think it works as a good, albeit shaky, bedrock to launch a universe on. It’s just…
Nicholson is my favorite live-action Joker because he had both the humor of a clown and the menace of a murderer (and I recall he just fell off a building rather than being murdered by Batman). Ledger gave a great performance, but he’s not really that funny (Phoenix also gave a great performance, but it’s hardly the…
I hope that whatever they do with DD they embrace the lighthearted side, as they did in She-Hulk. The great thing about the MCU (and yeah, I include the tv shows, what the fuck) is that Feige and company understand Marvel. There’s room for dark and brooding Daredevil and there’s room for goofy Daredevil. There’s…
Why isn’t charlie cox in more things? He has a super likable persona. As good as his brooding Daredevil was in the original show, it was fun to see a more lighthearted side in She Hulk. Honestly, cast this guy in more things already.
After Perry’s first departure, the The shōgun Tokugawa Ieyoshi died, and control of the shogunate passed to Tokugawa Iesada. As Iesada was a sickly young boy, the head of the rōjū Abe Masahiro polled all of the daimyō for their opinions on Perry’s demands, which had the unforeseen consequence of portraying the…
I remember people were commenting on his manner during the reunion after it aired, but IIRC it turned out to be because of some dental surgery he’d had just before filming it (or something similar).
“ Black Adam is a movie that would have you believe that the aforementioned country’s population would chant “champion” at the guy who helped demolish most of their homes and buildings.”
I keeping seeing all the critics say things like this as if they didn’t live through January 6th. If you don’t understand how many…
Yeah, I think Johnson has too much control of his movies, honestly, often working with the same mediocre crew of people who cater to his desire to stick to a carefully-managed public persona. He’s never going to really reach his potential, IMO, until he puts himself in the hands of Directors and Writers with more…
And I guess the Superman vs. Black Adam movie is happening.
The DCEU’s continuity is so vague at this point that I’m pretty sure Rick Flagg could just show up again with zero explanation.
blame the comics they did it first. like how namor existed before aquaman etc
