He’s definitely being honest in the way he talks about her as an afterthought. I don’t think anyone’s questioning that aspect of it.

Which is why the “enthusiastic” part of “enthusiastic consent” is so important. “Um...OK. Fine, I guess” is not the same as “HELL YES”

Edited. I forgot that they never released her name.

Sure, but locks fail. Always knock and wait for a response when entering a single-toilet public restroom. ALWAYS.

OH NO I GOT A SINGLE DETAIL SLIGHTLY WRONG SOMEONE PLEASE REPORT ME TO THE INTERNET POLICE

OH damn that’s right, doesn’t he try to stop her from getting on a bus or plane? Fuck that guy. (real and fictional)

I use bar soap because my dermatologist recommended it to me and it doesn’t freak my skin out. Liquid body soap just makes me think of dish detergent.

Yeah but that’s nowhere near being morally on par with A) being an adult dating a child and B) using your power over that child to try to convince her to not go to college

How is Diane Keaton’s character horrible? Streep’s? That was the movie that made me realize I couldn’t separate Woody Allen from the things people say about him. I don’t remember feeling that any of the women depicted were “horrible” or at least as deeply selfish and stunted as Woody’s character.

What symptoms are these idiots saying she’s showing? Acute DoubleXCromosomeitis?

If Tim Kaine wants to be my real dad, he’ll have to start disappointing me and calling my mom a bitch on a daily basis.

Oh yes, I’ve never seen that documentary. Sounds like I could learn a thing or two from it!

I take your point that it’s rare for people to actually discuss art in a movie, but I also take his point that this is an important way to present black characters in film. I don’t think it’s really worth being pedantic about.

This raises a point of curiosity for me about what the fuck a producer even does - I thought producers fund and support the movie while it’s being made, while distributors come in after the fact and help get it seen.

I’m sure I’m not going to be the only person to point this out, but there is a VERY famous “looking at art” montage in “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off” - a one-off example, but I can think of a few others with white characters just off the top of my head (Thomas Crown Affair, several James Bond movies). It’s not a…

As a former Woody Allen devotee (in my pretentious college years, to clarify) - his movies are superficially charming and amusing, they’re pompous and fast without actually being intellectually challenging, so they make people with something to prove feel gratified and clever that they’re in on the joke.

I’m as gray as I ever was, so it doesn’t seem like a batch thing to me

“What? You, the star of a reality show, which is the exact same industry I am in, were married to someone who was related to the Kennedys? I HAD NO IDEA! THAT COMPLETELY DID NOT INFORM WHAT I SAID TO YOU TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

I. FUCKING. LOVE. KATYA.

His whole “what? who are you? I have NO IDEA who you even are? You’re famous? OMG for what? Really? I had NO IDEA” schtick is truly psychopathic.
