Has Chris Rock been defaming Will Smith? I was given to understand he’d been pretty tight-lipped about the incident (seemingly to set up some eventual special where he’ll talk about the whole thing.)

Funnily enough the only people mad about ScarJo being cast in Ghost in the Shell were Americans, like the Japanese straight up didn’t give a damn about her casting.

The lead wasn’t actually her first choice, but the show had already cast all their trees.

It’s always been the brain-rot of choice for antisemitism. The Jewish people are supposedly weak and degenerate, while also being a powerful threat capable of wiping out Christianity.

The Lindsay Ellis thing was pretty fucked up. Whether you think her saying ‘Raya’ is derivative was fair or not (I haven’t seen it so I don’t have an opinion), that’s a simple textual critique. Extrapolating that to some kind of hate crime is not only unfair, it’s moronic.

Are you saying that comment sparked some recognition?

Raymond Luxury-Yacht (pronounced Throatwobbler Mangrove)?

but there’s a disturbing amount of people that try to be the biggest virtue signaler, one of them even posts here regularly.

This site constantly fans the flames of cancel culture yet, when in works, y’all’s complain about that too.

Wow, that is quite an effort to bring in incels into this :-)

The simple truth on this is that it is a bigger deal because Smith hit a popular guy on national television during a big event. It gets hype and people remember seeing it. We did not watch the Chris Brown and Woody Allen claims in real time on TV. It is not…

If you’re really “ever the peacemaker,” you don’t tend to get up caught up in public assault in the first place.

You love her work, or you love things she worked in? I’m having a hard time imagining Fight Club falling apart if she was unavailable.

Ah yes, the long-awaited answer to the age-old question, “What does Helena Bonham Carter think about this issue?”

This wasn’t a critique of the aesthetic qualities, son. This is shade.

Dramatic much, son?

What the hell does the MCU have to do with Scorsese and Tarantino making films? Are we pretending like big action blockbusters haven’t been dominant for like three decades?

AV Club and any criticism of comic book movies.

I love James Hong, but the fact that he was the first who came to mind really underscores my point.

First of all, he’s defending himself and his peers from QT’s shade about them not being bona fide movie stars.

I was going to say The Infinity Watch, but they’ve pretty much all been introduced already: Gamora, Drax, Thanos, Pip the Troll and Adam Warlock’s showing up in Guardians 3. Moondragon’s the only one left.
