When the father is living his dreams out vicariously through his children and making an absolute ass of himself, while using them as his “foot in the door”, then yes, absolutely. For the good of this country I wish for this man to be thrown into the fire, out of the spotlight. It would appear that the only way for…

There’s certainly nothing wrong with disagreeing with a piece of art, and I definitely see their point. But removing art because some people disagree with it is... worrisome to me.

Is it morally and ethically wrong to root against a child? Yeah, sure, but I’m going to root for all of Lavar’s offspring to crash and burn. I haven’t openly rooted for a child’s demise this much since Dakota Fanning.

Co-opting? Marginalizing? Hate crime?

I don’t know how its not the whites’ “story”. They were the perpetrators. It seems a pretty powerful piece of art in support of the indigenous. I am failing to see why this engendered a protest...

I’ve always felt this image summarizes the whole family dynamic perfectly.

As a parent of three boys, I just feel so sorry for those kids because of what their asshole, attention-whore father is doing to them.

Nah. Then I’d have described him as “scrappy.”

But that’s just not true. That’s like saying that no real follower of Christ would refuse to bake a cake for a homosexual couple. Actually, you can find very real support for this sort of thing in their religious texts (whether we like to admit it or not). Sure, the vast majority of Muslims wouldn’t do this, and…

I don’t like hitting people because words, do you?

Its always interesting to see whether the blatant favoritism to women overrides the blatant favoritism to blacks in stories like these.

How is that any different to some awful child checking every notification for Snap chat and Insta every few minutes? Are you waiting on a kidney? Is Grandma on her last legs? If so, maybe you shouldn’t be at the cinema!

Your schedule and texting activity is the problem of other people. You should follow your own advice and stay home.

Your shitty phone is literally impossible not to notice if you’re seated in front of me. If you’re off to the side? I still see the blinding light of your phone. If you’re in the center? I still see the blinding light of your phone, even if I deliberately look away. No matter what direction I look, if you’re in front…

I go to Alamo Theaters. I will have you thrown out for talking or texting. It’s a pleasure and the policy of the theater I like to exercise. Whine to them that you’re too special to care about the rest of the theater for your precious texts

Thankfully Alamo Drafthouse will kick people out for using their phones during a movie. I don’t go to them, but it’s a great policy.

It is not unreasonable to expect someone to not look at their phone for 2 hours. In a dark movie theater, the bright screen of a phone is immediately noticeable in your peripheral vision. C’mon you already know this.

No, fuck off, you have no defense. The money you paid to be in the theater isn’t more valuable than the money other people paid to be in that theater. You want phone time, go where the phone booths used to go, outside the fucking theater.

Hard no. The whole point of watching a movie in the theater is to be in an immersive environment free of distractions. The ideal experience is supposed to be in the theater.

I might feel more strongly about this if the seat went back further than 5 degrees. But I’m just as uncomfortable as 85 degrees as I am at 90, so I leave it up.
