Yes, male celebrities are also harassed (which is also not okay), but there’s very definitely a level of vitriol and viciousness that these shitstains tend to reserve exclusively for women.

Yeah, I was gonna say, “didn’t we already elect that guy, but dumber?”

“People who cannot make rational decisions could at one point. And before that point was reached they decided not to do anything about it.”

Yeah, the problem with that is most of the people who voted for him wouldn’t ask that. They still seem to think he’s doing a pretty great job.

A Joker movie without Batman? That’s almost as stupid as a Venom movie without Spi-

This whole movie makes a lot more sense under the premise that every single person involved was tripping out of their fucking minds on various intoxicants 24-7 from day one of development through the premiere.

Well yes, but that’s kind of the meta way to look at it, isn’t it? That’s a little like saying the burglar wasn’t such a bad guy for killing Uncle Ben because he was just serving his narrative purpose in motivating Spider-Man. It’s a little different in that Dr. Strange gets to step outside the frame of the story and…

Okay, but Tony just sort of hesitated for a second before the ship showed up of NY, and then he was sort of busy/off-planet (and presumably out of cell range). He didn’t really understand what he was up against yet. And we don’t really have any idea what Ant Man’s deal was at the time. As far as we know he was still…

I think I come down somewhere between you and McLevy here. I think there’s room to give Quill shit for his colossal fuck up without calling him a villain. I’d define “villain” as someone who, whether misguided or truly evil, is *intentionally* trying to do something bad that the hero of the story is trying to prevent.…

Right? And, like, what billing address was listed on the account, just “The Batcave?” Did they run a credit check on Batman before they issued it? How did he pay his credit card bill, with a Batcheck (this was the ‘90's)?

Okay, again, all of this is based on the account given in this interview by Cross, but according to what we know, Cross DIDN’T call Cera to see if Cera thought what he had said was racist. He called Cera to see if Cera remembered Yi being upset about it at the time. He found out an acquaintance was upset with him, so…

Sure, except that’s not what happened. Cross was presumably upset about the allegations coming up and called his friend who had been dating the woman in question at the time, thinking maybe he would have some insight. That seems like a reasonable thing to think. As far as we know Cross didn’t ask Cera if he was “okay”…

Correction:

Yeah, like gesundheitall said, I don’t think she’s “uglified” any more than anyone else in the “present day” scenes. She’s just not wearing any makeup (I mean the character - I assume the actor is wearing some makeup for the camera at least), has her hair up, and is dressed in very plain clothing, but again, that’s…

That’s interesting. I have significant interest in Star Wars (prequels, not so much), and I was pretty surprised at how little anything in the trailer excited me. The only reason I’m probably going to see this is that Donald Glover as Lando is some so-genius-it-seems-obvious casting. Well, that and myStar Wars…

I wouldn’t like the sentiment, I wouldn’t particularly care that they used a swear (also, you’re allowed to type out swear words on the internet). And according to the article, the station aired the ad with a disclaimer to the effect of “hey, sorry about the naughty words, but we’re required to air political ads…

That’s probably true, but if some bizarrely specific TV genie showed up and gave me the option of four seasons of Firefly vs. the half-season and a movie we got, I’d take my chances with the four.

Serious question: why in the mother fuck is “don’t cook chicken in the dishwasher” a thing that any human being would ever need to tell another human being?

Okay, but I think there’s an important distinction between “racists are the monsters” and “racism is the monster.” I haven’t read the comic, but based on this article it sounds like this is the latter. The monsters are empowered by racism, rather than the monsters literally being the other people in the building.

Wow, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen the commentariat here so completely unanimous about anything. I mean, usually you’ll find at least one or two people willing to defend even, say, Bill Cosby. But nope, not here. Congratulations!
