My wife and I saw it together (her first, my fourth) and I complained about the Casino and Finn/Rose mission, and the bad decisions Poe made, the bad decisions Luke made. And she turned to me and said its about “failure” and learning from that “failure”. Failure clearly was a main theme in the film and all of them…

Except that never actually happened.

I kind of like it, it references the obvious historical link to the fact that it was an anime/manga and also it help make her a bit “off” but still expressive. just weird enough looking to tell that she is not human.

I think the big eye look was a choice to make her look intentionally unrealistic, so that youre always aware that she’s not fully human.

...and this is of interest why? He posited a moral dilemma on twitter and gets shit for merely daring to ask the question? Man people have become so f’in sensitive lately!!

If someone has a real suggestion as to how to get NK to simmer down, without any loss of life, I’d love to hear it.

Otherwise, facing the reality that NK is going to kill some certain number of people at some certain point in the future requires us to decide whether those casualties are on our terms or on Kim Jong…

I mean.... it’s a valid question.

That’s right, Cherith. And even though i know this is still a gossip blog at heart, I was disappointed to see it across the page here at this “feminist” blog. Yes perhaps newsworthy, but there is a better way to cover it.

It was ridiculous that people thought it was OK to name her without her consent. You can’t just go around telling people’s stories for them. And in this case it was an assumption not based on fact.

When it comes to a film like Coco it should. That wasn’t even Lasseter’s film.

We should remember that a lot of other people were involved in Pixar movies.

Wormholes, traveling lightyears, golden orbs... As someone who hasn’t played Pokemon since FireRed:

I’m italian and football here is a goddamn religion. Missing the world cup in italy is like telling catholics that there won’t be a Pope for the next 4 years.

dude tell me about it, football here is a goddamn religion. Missing the world cup in italy is like telling christians that there won’t be a Pope for the next 4 years.

Could be worse.....could be Italy.

As a “gamer of color” I’m immensely glad they removed the “garbage” and kept the technical mastery and attention to detail. My eyes can’t roll far enough back in my skull at the (largely) white critics complaining (!!!) that they adhered to the artistic style and removed the racist overtones. I can’t thank them…

There’s no winning here.

Or that you can borrow from the past in ways that don’t try to pretend the bad stuff didn’t happen or wasn’t a part of it.

So you’re basically saying that he’s a human being with problems and not a mythological deity of some sort? Huh...
