When the Republicans gave their grotesque tax cuts to corporations they promised us a flood of new jobs. Instead, the corporations took the opportunity to gobble-up their competitors and kill them off. Corporations have been awash in cash for a decade. If they had wanted to build new domestic factories they could have…

Wait... So a company said they were going to do such and such after scoring a huge deal, the government said OK without actually putting anything in writing saying they have to keep their word, and now at the first available opportunity the company is reneging?

Don’t get me wrong, I actually probably agree with you. It just felt sort of hard to stomach a Marvel movie being a best picture nominee, plus the OP made a reference to everything being superheroes now. The slate as a whole was definitely really poor though (which is especially striking as I feel 2018 was actually a…

It gets even worse than that when you consider Black Panther was a best picture nominee. Talk about an insult to cinema.

I don’t mean to be overly dramatic, but I hate the current state of the movie industry. This year’s Oscars exemplified it perfectly: there’s a ton of competently-made, good-looking, prestige-pretending movies that are, at their heart, shallow and mediocre. They are watchable, they can be fun, they are mostly…

This is a real bummer. There are so few studio divisions left that make these sorts of middle-budget, non-franchise films anymore, and Fox 2000 was one of the rare ones that actually knew how to make them consistently profitable. It seemed like one of those businesses where the Disney brass could’ve basically just…

I’ve always specifically not wanted the X-Men to appear in the MCU. They don’t really fit, tonally or conceptually.

Oh, but now Wolverine can hang out with Captain America!

I can’t put into words how wonderful it is to not see that smug bastard Paul Ryan sitting behind Trump, nodding his head up and down with that shit eating grin on his face over every single thing Trump says. 

That .gif is my life during this administration.

Zack, you’ve prob heard this a 1000 times but this isn’t my father’s or my TREK. From someone who’s a pretty accepting fan (TOS, ST:TNG, ST:DS9, VOYAGER, ENTERPRISE; I have all the DVDs of all the movies, and literally hundreds of the novels) ST:D is dead to me. There is no life, no spark, no humor. I don’t care if…

Yeah, if Thanos really believed that all civilizations will destroy themselves by using up all the resources, killing half of the universe is just a delaying action.

When your “final solution” is to try to get rid of a large segment of the population to make everything “better”... yeah, you’re a sociopath.

I mean, not to mention it isn’t even his child. It’s some kid he kidnapped after he murder her mother, and forced her to spend her childhood in single combat against her adopted sister, torturing the loser.

I think Gamora hit the nail on the head when she said he isn’t capable of love, at least not as a human…

“which hinge on the idea that a person is incapable of telling wrong from right—which Thanos clearly can, given his grief at actions he takes during the film”

Bill Maher was right.

Look me straight in the eye and tell me Tyrion is not at least a tiny bit black.

I miss the days that this dumbfuck would get identified and fired by his employer.

If police can use time to “investigate” someone writing Black Lives Matter on a box of doughnuts, then they can investigate this.
