An excellent point. Back when SATC was on, no one except trans people and decent people with a small amount of basic concern knew that oppressio nof trans people was wrong. Like how we shouldn’t criticize suffragettes for being racist - how could they possibly have known that black women were humans? On the other…

Godard was a outspoken anti-semite who manipulated and controlled young women for his own ends.

Pretty spot on right there.

Yeah, you’re right. I have no disagreement with criticizing the decision to continue giving Kobe a platform and applause. My issue is with Jezebel publishing something so outraged and shocked - shocked! - that anyone would continue to praise rapists while wearing the metoo pin....while they do The. Exact. Same. Thing.

Wait...are we disagreeing with each other or agreeing?

She’s a mediocre actor who is extremely likable and extremely gorgeous. If she were a guy, we’d all have figured that out by now (though it would, also, not stop him from continuing to get leading roles).

She’s just not a top flight actor.

Easily the best movie about the joys of being a grande bourgeoisie and having servants without minimum wage protection. Mary Poppins is what you show kids with 7 staff members waiting on them to ensure they never, ever, ever think about the inequity of inherited class disparity.

Basically, if a movie were as sexist as…

Same way Jezebel has no interest in talking about its defense of David Bowie pursuing a 14 year old and bedding minors.

Jezebel still publishes peons to David Bowie and he used to f*ck minors - you know, what we all agree Roy Moore is a monster for attempting to do, David Bowie just did.

Kimmel ran The Man Show for years. It was literally the most misogynistic show on television - not ‘literally’ in the sense of figuratively, but actually, literally, a show of misogyny. I don’t understand how he gets to forget that.

Again though, Jezebel continues to treat Bowie like a hero, and buddy had sex with minors. Bowie was Roy Moor-ing...well, not before Moore, but at the same time, and Jezebel is a-okay with that.

Kobe deserves to fall in the wake of metoo, that goes without saying and I could not agree with you more. But the issue here is one that jezebel has never written frankly about, and one that I will not get out of the greys for: everyone wants to protect the abusers and criminals they like and identify with.

You guys…

You guys are giving a harder time to Quentin than (a) any of all the rest of the people in Hollywood, all of whom defended Polanski for years, and (b) David Bowie, who actually had sex with minors.

Stop giving him press. This is what he wants. You all need to stop giving him what he wants.

I tried watching it on a plane and fell asleep. Will try again!

Forgive me for thinking we should remember Marie Curie for the incredible work she did and not her personal relationships. That is what set her apart and she deserves to be recognized for it.

That’s not interesting. Her work is interesting. Being moderately applause-worthy to our contemporary ethics is not the most interesting thing about Marie Curie. Her goddamn work is what is interesting.

I could not disagree more. There are already hundreds and hundreds of movies about the nature of human romantic and platonic love and everything in between. Some of us are interested in math and ideas on other topics and would like movies about those things.

You already have your movies, which I consider dry. I’m not…

“A large part of me wants to be bitter that the film risks reducing the first woman Nobel Prize winner (and only woman to win it twice) to a stupid love story”

Could not possibly agree more. As a math geek, I have been insulted by almost every single movie about math actually being some lame “but really all that…

You realize this is like when Breitbart commenters disbelieve the Moore accusers because they’re Clinton voters, right? It’s literally the precise same thing.
