To me, it reads that she was roofied.  Being roofied doesn’t necessarily mean that you physically black out; it’s more that you are complacent and can’t really object to something another person does/asks you to do, even though there is a part of your mind that’s saying “no, don’t do this; stop.”  But it’s perfectly…

At this point I figure the movie is just going to be a slow pan across a stadium filled with thousands of actors, and it will still take 3 hours.

Jesus that cast list is crazy! I actually had to scroll for a bit before I saw names I didn’t recognize. Budget is rumored at $100 million, a huge chunk of that has to be just for the cast. Given that he has said he is going to make 10 total movies, and this would be the 9th, it makes sense that actors are clamoring…

He is in supporting roles in Lifetime movies so close enough.

Too bad.  I almost went with Mulan Rouge for my name here.

FUCK, poor woman! I love Chewing Gum, but even if I’d never heard of it, this would be awful. There should be employee protections for women who are victims of sexual assault, or hell, crime victims period. Being the victim of a crime doesn’t stop when the crime ends, it continues and reverberates through lost…

I agree that gender representation in mass media is important and complicated. I also agree that the messages in Mulan get a little muddled. However, I also think this was a pretty weak essay, cherry-picking lines and moments and not really acknowledging other possible interpretations of those lines and moments. It…

The “gay role” tweet is from 2009 when he was around 15. If he had offered a sincere apology and explained that he had matured and seen the error of his ways I could see forgiving him. The rest of the tweets are less than 2 years old so, yeah MAGA asshole. Israel can take his sorry, not sorry statement to the…

Lol at Broussard tweeting “I won’t go out for a gay role” when the reason he has a semblance of a career is “The Bling Ring” in which he plays...wait for it... a gay character.

And who the hell buys a secondhand thong?  Gross.

This article is satire, right?

Otherwise, this reads like the type of thing the alt-right would write if they were trying to mock progressives.

A Disney movie that doesn’t show the princess as a helpless waif who needs a big strong man to come save her - in fact, she saves him (TWICE!) as well as you know, an entire country - and you criticize its gender politics because...why exactly?

“Like most hegemonic works, Mulan just doesn’t hold up to a lot of scrutiny”

I’ll Never Stop Quoting Coming to America, but I Can’t Ignore Its Colorism

Slate has a whole series of articles like this that are literally called, “Pre-woke Watching.” 

Does this really count as woke? I think it’s more about “hot take” culture than anything else. 

I would love to see a movie script written by the people who write these woke re-reviews, because I love watching train wrecks. 

Yawn.
