1. That’s not a selfie. I know English is an evolving language but that’s not a fucking selfie, otherwise any goddamn photo with a face on it is a selfie.

I agree. I don’t know. I don’t want to say it but I side with these women OR let’s just say the “fans.” They paid for a show. There is no contract saying your attention has to be focused on the performer at all moments. If Lambert gets this flustered during a performance by a selfie, even one with flash, I have…

Fuck everyone else!  I wanna hear more about that turtle!

In only slight defense of these women (because I also wouldn’t have done what they did), they’re not in the front row. You can see people’s heads behind them. If the setup venue’s is anything like other shows in Vegas I’ve been to, they’re standing in front of a row of banquettes for booth seating. So they’re probably…

I’m surprised people aren’t mentioning what I think is the most obvious reason people think it’s a hoax: it sounded like a stupid urban legend from the start. “Putting flyers on windshields to steal your car” stupid.

This is what's known as "There are children starving in Africa" logic. 

Not sure race has much to do with people believing it’s a hoax.

From the article, “The family alleges the 12-year-old’s mother handed her a bottle filled with the unknown liquid.”

how the actors should be more concerned about other issues in this country that need attention than what they are complaining about

As far as whether they should be focused on something of greater concern, maybe. Maybe we all should be.
However, the strike isn’t a millionaires vs billionaires kind of thing. The bigger concern is lower level actors getting a living wage/health insurance/employment security/etc.

Disney is on the financial ropes, but nothing alarming yet.

The mistake they’re making is expecting all of them to make a billion and spending way too much money on making and marketing them. 
But we all know about hollywood accounting, those movies doesn’t really cost that much to make.

Go look at photos/videos of the WGA picket lines, they’re similarly upbeat. You’ve gotta keep the spirits high when you’re spending hours a day marching in the summer heat, not drawing a paycheck.

It would have been a lesser film if we’d gotten a bunch of big hero moments from the fanservice characters. Taking them out like he did made the film much better. I didn’t take it as contempt for the film at all, but rather a fun joke to play on the audience.

I have to think the, “we’ll pay you for a day’s work in exchange for having unlimited rights to your image forever” is an absurdist negotiating ploy, because no one who actually wanted to work as an actor would sign up for that since it rather obviously renders you unemployable as an actor outside of live theater…

I loved it. I find it hilarious that Raimi introduced a bunch of fan-service characters only to kill them off in brutal ways immediately. Why even watch a Raimi film if you’re not looking for stuff like that?

Well, yeah, that’s the entire point of the scene. The heroes of this universe are a bunch of smug assholes convinced everything they do is automatically justified for “the greater good,” and they get their just desserts for arrogantly going up against an omnipotent reality warper who can take them all down in seconds.

But they can’t do it yet though it will happen. It’s smart for the actors to fight for this now while they still can.

As I’ve been saying since he first proffered to buy Twitter for a ridiculous sum of money: this was always going to end in tears. Musk was NEVER going to be able earn his money back through either ad sales, subscriptions, blue check marks, etc. and/or reselling Twitter.

So...Musk is following the Donald Trump Method of Not Paying People What They Are Owed. And being a right-wing asshole. Nice.

I mean, they could find dozens of million dollar checks made out to cash, endorsed by Clarence, and deposited into his savings account that said “for overturning Roe v Wade” on the memo line and you still probably couldn’t find 17 GOP Senators who would vote to remove him.
