My jam is white-washed films failing at the box office.
Can I add that I’m also getting a little tired of Scarlett Johansson as well? I think frequency with which she’s showing up in the Marvel movies, coupled with her other work, results in a l0t of Scarlett Johansson. That ight have something to do with people going “meh...another Scarlett Johansson movie...”
This argument bothers me the most (along with “black doesn’t travel”).
okay, NOW can we stop with the ‘well they needed a big name in the lead who just happened to be white to guarantee success’ excuse?
While the whitewashing may have been a factor it is not why this movie failed. It failed because it is a piece of shit Hollywood knockoff of the original work that thought it could replicate some scenes from the original and have a built in fan base. They made a movie too niche for general audiences and too…
Yay!
I can’t read about or see Emma Roberts without immediately thinking about how she is a batterer.
Fine outfit, questionable human being with a history of domestic violence.
I’m confused by this post. Yes, the outfit is moderately interesting but I thought we all hated her because she beat up our bae Evan Peters.
Also, America kills babies on the regular via civilian air strikes and bombing of MSF hospitals outside of the US. Apparently people conveniently forget that fact when the babies are brown.
It also means he got drunk once and cheated on his wife.
“take off ur cardigan... take off ur second cardigan”
Big difference was Bush never came across as a huge jerk in any capacity.
I never thought I’d be saying that W isn’t the worst president of my lifetime. Also, he may have been in someone’s pocket but at least he was bought and paid for by an American company instead of some Russian one. That’s true patriotism.
We thought Bush was a puppet with strings, but now lazy Americans elected a dummy with multiple hands up the hole.
I was thinking the same thing!! Trump is such shit, I’m looking at Bush thinking.. he was a charming and fun guy.
Guys, Trump has done the impossible and made me nostalgic for Bush. I would gratefully trade him into the office of President in a heartbeat. That is how bad things are. And it pisses me off that Trump is making Bush, who was an AWFUL president, be whitewashed with positive sentiment. But here we are.
Obama will always be referred to as “President,” by well-deserved custom.
