This was an interesting read. Thanks! I hope we see more articles like this in the future.
That sounds brutal. Best wishes.
A problem exacerbated by consumers being conditioned to expect “no cost”. We’ll be sorting out the effects of the internet on the written word and its various industries for decades.
There are tens of us. Starwipe was beautiful.
He’ll dance for you too! It’s sad.
Godzilla 2014 forgot that at some point the titular beast need be revealed. Finally when we get full body shots of it, it’s still 75% shrouded in dust and smoke.
Jesus, you’re one dense clod.
Jamie Gertz has the most perfunctory role. Doesn’t she just sort of fade out of the movie? “I see the third act is approaching, so my work here is done.”

No non-white and/or non-male individual would have been given the amazing number of chances at success as Gilliam has had. “Oh a new Terry Gilliam movie…oh it was a terrible, unhappy production…oh it was a giant bomb, poorly reviewed…oh a new Terry Gilliam movie…” repeat
Knowing how psychologically-tuned advertising has grown (see: Cambridge Analytica et al.) my guess it’s no coincidence. I don’t think the entire MCU would be so father-focused were the audience not in large part males now grown up and either becoming fathers themselves, or at an age to be nostalgic about their own…
Black Panther and Thor Ragnarok having the exact same “Dead Dad Gives Inspirational Speech Against An Excessively Hokey CGI Backdrop Themed To That Movie’s Hero” really drove it home for me, and got me thinking about Marvel’s perception of their audience and all the focus group tuning that must drive the whole…
