I feel like if he didn't push hard on the whole anti-gay thing he wouldn't be viewed as negatively today. I mean, Iraq was terrible but it's not like we stopped killing children, conducting illegal bombing campaigns, and spying on americans after he left.

Octavia Butler's 2 parter: Parable of the Sower and Parable of the Talents. Both show the US in the not too distant future where the country is basically anarchy, torn apart by economic, racial, and class strife. And the President in Talents is a pseudo religious zealot appealing to people base instincts for votes,…

I'd argue the opposite. Grossly manipulative real news has been around forever, especially if you include biased news. Flat out fake news arose from that.

So have they said what role Naomi Rapace will have in this one? Or is the ship they come across similar to hers?

being a philistine I read the name of his new character as 'Edward St. Aubyn Patrick Melrose' and thought, "that sounds about right."

Well, if Emma Stone can win.

What if……the album………….is about me and you.!!!

That's a big thing for sure. From my (very limited) understanding of the situation with Affleck, he assaulted a woman then had to pay her a lot of money because of it. Like, is there something he could do to atone or is he supposed to be hated from now on?

I'm genuinely confused as to what's irredeemable in Hollywood.

Man, I remember thinking Avatar was pretty cool when it first came out (big aliens vs giant mechs with guns), but I have no desire to watch it again and even less desire to visit an amusement park dedicated to it.

Return of Ian McShane's priest Ray confirmed.

what's up nerdy howie mandell

Anyone else listen to the last Doug Loves Movies with Anne Heche and Onur Tukel? What the hell was happening?

Oh fuck off.

Well I guess it's easy to learn about if for some reason you decide to google the history of "Eenie meenie meiney moe" but who tf does that

I try to not tell anyone whether they should or shouldn't be offended by something for race reasons as I'm white and admittedly ignorant on such things coming from a small town. I didn't find out about the racist (original I guess?) version of this rhyme tell well into my twenties. My mom always did this rhyme with…

Your reply and my response lead me to think of something that kind of counters my thoughts. Like, west and soviets were fighting each other around Asia at that time but with attempts at deniability but a real possibility of boiling over. Now we have Russia doing the same thing in Ukraine and Georgia the Soviets did in…

Oh, I have no problem with saying things are worse than 1980s and 1990s. I just don't think things are the same level as the Cold War before any proliferation treaties or any agreements were signed (late 60s I believe?).

I'm seeing Maiden in July. Hopefully they'll play that.
