This. Cairo and Egypt looks very different, and it’s disappointing that we continue to see stereotypical nonsense every time we see any Middle East/Northern African location. And it also ignores that certain communities went in to Egypt and took many of its resources, so it has been in a deficit for a reason...

WW84 was such a let down for me. The anti-Middle East rhetoric was alarming and so 2001. The focus on a dude that Diana knew and hung out with for a few days becoming a point of obsession is disappointing. And the film blaming Barbara/seeing her as a villain for fighting against an abuser that physically assaulted her…
I actually LOVED Max. He is maybe the first Latino to be in a big superhero movie as a main character, and the fact that they focused on how his experience as a 1st generation American shaped his personality felt extremely personable to me. Anyone who has ever been made fun of for bringing ethnic food to school as a…
That’s a really cool thing to say, don’t cut yourself on all that edge now.
You mean by pointing out a clear example of the poor writing that a lot of people point out as a main flaw of the film? Thats not trying hard to dislike a film, it strikes me as a pretty standard takeaway.
I don’t wish to negate your enjoyment of the film. I’m happy that you found so much to love in it. But to your specific point of “I think folk are trying too hard to not like the movie”; I really enjoyed WW1 and was dying to see the sequel. We had Xmas dinner and I made it clear to my wife and our 2 friends that at…
“I find it hypocritical, for lack of a better term, of my community to show much hate towards something they don’t understand. I for one don’t see a problem with it,” James wrote on Facebook, NBC reports. “I do not wish to follow in this pagan religion, however, I feel it’s important to recognize and support each…
“Heimdall the White” was one of his names. Mr. Elba is delightfully cast for this.
LOL, I felt that way too. It’s all good. Like dude, you HAVE a paper certifying you have this shit and you still popped up? He’s certified goofy. I just gave him the treatment my mom gave me when this first broke out. Couldn’t go to her home for a month.
If i may add a comical note, somewhere off in the galaxy, the following conversation took place:
Han: “Hey, kid. That cruiser is filled with Imperial dark troopers...”
Luke: “I got it.”
Leia: “Are you sure, I can order an entire fleet to help...”
Luke: “Naw, i got it.”
And the youtube reactions from mothers and fathers…
I didn’t have friends growing up, or imaginary friends. What I did have, was Luke Skywalker. And every time I felt lonely or unsure, I asked myself: “What would Luke do?”
That man wasn’t just a hero, he was my Jiminy Cricket. The first person I could think about and say: “That is wrong because Luke wouldn’t do it!”

So now that it’s just us real niggas in the building, HOLY FUCK WHAT?!
I mean when they brought the freaking dark saber at the end of season 1 I pretty much lost it. And yeah, season two really dug deep into the good stuff of the EU. Bo-Katan, the Nite Owls, Ahsoka, Thrawn. Just give Filoni all the Star Wars money.
Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni saved Star Wars.
So, here’s yet another man, albeit a very intelligent, educated and well-read man
His first few books were good, but Gladwell has been spewing hot garbage for a while now. It’s almost inevitable for these “public thinker” types that eventually the need for new contrarian material leads them down the road to stupid town.
“It is literally drinking a cup of spiced crème anglaise.”
My family’s recipe includes mace, which is how I found out mace was a spice and not just a self defense tool.
