I wonder how much the Tim Miller reshoots were aimed at getting a PG-13.

The Paramount Decrees had been living on borrowed time. The decrees bound the big studios of the time and several of those studios are either defunct like UA and RKO or have been gobbled up by bigger companies, as happened to MGM and 20th Century Fox. Disney wasn’t even covered by the decrees.

*begrudgingly stars*

I didn’t realize it was even out. I need to make a point of going to see it.

To borrow from Johnson himself, the hierarchy of power in the wrestler-turned-actor universe is about to change. I can’t even imagine how bad it must’ve been to get Ryan Reynolds fired up.

This is some tremendous bullshit. So because of this law, the feds and the state will be on the hook, essentially subsidizing whatever corner-cutting or negligence is to blame for the Dali’s loss of power. And at the same time, because these ships almost always use foreign flags, the US and states have almost no…

Hopefully ACOE clears a path in due time after recovery efforts are complete. The region can’t afford the port to be frozen for very long.

For the record, the bridge passed its most recent inspection. Federal inspectors raised a little concern about one of the columns (unclear which one). Some have brought up the fact there were no dolphins or fenders protecting the bridge but there’s a point where, with a ship this big, it becomes a physics question.

Someone speaking to a Capital Gazette photographer identified himself as a dockworker and compared the view to NYC after 9/11.

I’ve also seen people criticizing the city for having a “DEI mayor,” which is wild considering the city is like 60% black. Or they criticize his youth in a very coded manner -- he’s been in politics for more than a decade, he’s almost 40 and he moisturizes.

They took zero accountability for the roles of people like Herb Scannell, Brian Robbins and Albie Hecht in allowing this environment to fester.

Red flags ignored time after time after time. As a kids network that employs child actors, Nickelodeon had and has a special responsibility to look after these performers, even if it’s some other company like Schneider’s Bakery or Tollin/Robbins handling the day-to-day. And you have these people like the PA, like…

I’ve never even sat down and watched the VGA’s, because the whole thing is just a glorified infomercial.

Maybe it’s true, we all live in a simulation.

Austin St. John, he’s mixed. What does he think the Nazis would’ve done with him?

Copon also grifted fans for an unofficial Power Rangers film that will never get made.

I like to think I sniffed him out as a hack ages ago. He came off as ingenuine/smarmy when he was on G4tv.com (the sh0w), which is probably before the time of many readers here.

He’s been saying and doing stupid stuff for a few years now, and palling around with people who say stupid stuff. He made homophobic remarks at a panel and other actors on the con circuit don’t like him. He allegedly cheated the federal government. He upcharges fans for toys you can go buy on Amazon. His appearance…

I think the difference is 12 Years A Slave and Green Book and Crash didn’t implicate the audience whereas Flower Moon does. Furthermore, 12 Years A Slave, etc., these are white savior movies, they’re movies about reconciliation whereas Flower Moon isn’t that. There was no happy ending.

I think there’s a common thread between Paramount getting cold feet when the story changed to focus on Molly and Ernest and the Osage point of view, and AMPAS voters choosing Oppenheimer and other films over Flower Moon in various categories. And part of it is race. You have a lot of Academy members who are…
