How - exactly - was it hackneyed?

What is this hypothetical audience that isn’t turned off by a 5 minute long pseudo-dance number of gruesome murder in a church but is turned off by consensual sex? Everyone I know who falls into the “yes gore, no sex” camp would also be super offended by that church scene.

I don’t know if that was supposed to be a nod towards James Bond getting laid at the end of every movie

Out of tune? The entire movie is an R rated homage to the Bond movies (before the Craig era) with very little fucks given about subtlety. Nearly every Bond movie ends with 007 having casual sex with whichever girl didn’t get killed halfway through the film. Why shouldn’t the Kingsmen do the same, but cranked up to an…

I’m saying it’s part of a puzzle and you don’t have to be a fucking genius to figure it out. He guns for black and Latino players. Consistently. And he’s a hothead. and he’s from rural North…

I knew this was coming! Guess what? It’s NOT!

And the only time he’s ever…

There’s a glaring absence of whiteness to the list of players Bumgarner has fought with: Puig, Jesus Guzman, Alex Guerrero, Jose Bautista, Adrian Beltre, Carlos Gomez and Delino Deshields. I’m sure his roots in the Appalachian foothills of rural North Carolina has nothing to do with it.

This is the wrongest wrong of all the wrongs.
