I feel like that cringey “song of ice and fire” bit may be the only time that prophecy is mentioned for the rest of the series. There’s really nothing they can do here to fix the fundamentally hollow plot device of the White Walkers. We know what their deal was, they were ice zombies, and they get completely…

They probably would have been better off without the explicit Game of Thrones ties. Because now the show’s in a position of being all about preparing for an event we already know isn’t going to happen in these people’s lifetimes, and we also know all their efforts to preserve the warning of it are going to amount to…

there were celebrity feuds but they weren’t comment-section-based

Joke or not, it’s a valid complaint about a review that, had it been written by a dude, would probably have been dismissed as misogynist garbage.

The original DM might have been a joke, but since more than half the people here didn’t read it that way, it’s the very opposite of “quite obvious.”

The primary intent of a joke is to elicit a laugh and is usually unserious. I believe Stenberg was being sincere and her primary intent was to voice a complaint.

AVC couldn’t possibly have been snarky about this truly moronic non-story because SOMEONE MENTIONED THAT THEY WERE GAY and that should always be taken VERY VERY SERIOUSLY. How DARE you suggest ABSOLUTELY ANYTHING ELSE.

I want to see it more now, just to see who’s right.

It’s about time a movie featured cleavage.

I feel like this is the one time where the A.V. Club’s snark would have been appropriate. I don’t know why it’s missing because everyone involved is fucking stupid and deserves to be laughed at.

I got yer headline right here:

To lose sense of any sort of boundaries means you have to have had it first. To say that social media has turned billions of people into thoughtless, soulless, attention-whoring monsters with no senses of boundary, subtlety, context or humor is putting it overwhelmingly lightly.

So the reviewer makes a reductive comment about how the movie is just an advertisement for cleavage

‘Celebrity comments on comments about their comment’ now accounts for 93% of all entertainment news

Ironically, the movie was kinda ass...

It doesn't read like a joke

Christ, both of these people need to get the fuck off of social media. If you’re an actor, don’t DM film critics with a passive aggressive “jokes.” If you’re a film critic, don’t post tetchy TikTok videos in response. I’m still theoretically a couple of decades away from my “old man yells at cloud” phase of my life,…

Lesbian or not, it’s clear the author of the review is using her white womanhood to try and become the victim when messaged by a black actress she wrote a review on. 

To be fair, the DM doesn’t come off as being joking unless it was followed by a ;) or a /s or something.

Ah, the classic “I was only joking” excuse.
