Can’t we just fast forward to 5-10 years from now when their star’s waned and he or a family member or the ‘Team 10 crew’ start dying off like the Jackass gang

I’m ready for Cthulhu to just take us tbh

He absolutely is.

I don’t, especially since they institutionalized it with how they handled not only this customer, but also Faraci, and god knows who else. And no, they haven’t stepped aside. Yet.

There’s gradients of moral compromise, and then there’s supporting a chain that’s enabled sexual predators for years in a systemic pattern while you enjoy feeling catered to as a geek. Alamo is just one of many other spaces offered to us, many of which don’t make marginalizing assault and harassment a staple of their…

I’m just waiting to see how long it takes Woke Film Twitter to address this story, since many of them (hi, Jen Yamato) were desperate to run away from this and excuse Alamo last fall.

It’s a fucking movie theater.

De-lurking to ask: It took you guys this long to re-read your coverage and figure this out? Every single article about both games has read exactly the same for several years - problems, failures, not much of a game but gosh that PvP! Maybe they’ll get it right this time! If only there was a story or characters!

As did I - I am not a Del Toro cultist but I think Shape may be his best English language film. (I also am one of few who really liked Crimson Peak, while finding Pacific Rim quite bad and Pan’s Labyrinth and the Hellboy films overrated so I may be insane.)

Actually, I don’t think Three Billboards remotely cares if it is viewed as “woke”.

I didn’t like that either and didn’t expect much from Three Billboards. To my amazement it is excellent.

It is actually great.

It may not have been underlined in song, but I think he learned a lot from his commander’s last words to him as well as how he got handled by Clarke Peters’ character - not immediately but over time. It registered through performance for me, not reams of dialogue. As well as his hospital scene with Caleb Landry Jones.

Did we watch the same film?

It’s an inconvenient, uncomfortable movie about uncomfortable people who can be very ugly to each other and leave a lot unresolved. You are supposed to feel uncomfortable finding humanity in Rockwell because of how viscerally loathsome he was for the first half - I know I was uncomfortable. I also know it all felt…

Maybe people are just no longer as interested in a drunken human wildebeest’s attempts to “pour his heart out” to explain his grotesque RL behavior as they used to be. It’s not as cute when it’s not explicated via gimmick episode starring Joel McHale or Alison Brie.

It’s not news, but that doesn’t make it okay. That’s what he seems to implicitly count on: The fact that it’s “not news.” Even if he critiques himself first that doesn’t mean he’s done paying for his behavior.

It’s a shield. He “calls himself out” which inoculates him in the minds of his fanbase against further criticism about being a belligerent, gross asshole. “Hey, he admits it!”

Uh, yeah.

I loved Season 11. Thrilled.
