Oh sure, I guess “greenface” is still acceptable, then? 

Brolin strikes me as a guy who gives vey few fucks about what other people think, so if his poetry is horny, he’s gonna let it be horny.

“Mood’s a thing for cattle and loveplay, not mocap suits!”

You know that’s not true. The Beatles were (are) more popular than Jesus.

Slightly off topic, but last Sunday was the anniversary of the death of The Big Bopper, Ritchie Valens (who was only seventeen) and Buddy Holly, who also performed on Ed Sullivan.

If you’re going to criticize the things a person said, it’s fairer to actually include what they said, not to make up a thing they “basically said” that includes the words “white power.”

i think i can sum it up as:

the other problem, and something that i’m not sure i even possess the language to explain, is that we’re in a bit of a ‘crisis of opinion’.

This article made my day- thank you. 

I don’t think many Brits really understand the impact of this broadcast. The number of great American musicians who date their decision to follow their chosen career to this one TV show is staggering. If you have some time, have a flick through these quotes.

You don’t think parents have the Today Show on in the morning? For real?

A lot of the time when a movie adaptation doesn’t work it’s because they cut the wrong stuff out, or too much. But to get a good sized novel into a 2 hour movie you have to cut out a lot, like 75%.

The way they’re depicted, it seems so improbable that any part of these fights could go past 10-seconds before someone needs an ambulance. Are either one of these guys asking themselves, “Does this 8-minute fight…

See, that’s why entertainment journalists suck in general. This is a vital distinction, yet every headline after she was let go used the term “fired”. The quote Lucasfilm released at that time even suggest that there wasn’t even plan to bring her back even before her comments.

That dummy completely squandered having a whole show dedicated to her terrible acting just to score cheap likes from terminally online culture warriors.

so they were very much within their rights. shit that’d be a valuable fact to include in the article.

New rule: if you don't understand that the first amendment, you have to repeat 8th grade.

oh shit i wouldn’t fuck around with *disney* lawyers. i’m sure they made sure they were legally cleared when they fired her in the first place.
