it’s “possible that introducing female protagonists is somehow an easier, less threatening fix than hiring women directors and writers.”

*crosses fingers that you know this Twilight Zone reference*

Is it really sexist if I say the only good Tom Cruise is a pantsless 20 year old Tom Cruise?

I moved to Arizona. I’m hoping to see this joint go bluer each election.

I think you mean What’s the Matter With Kansas? But I wholeheartedly co-sign that pick.

At the beginning of Hidden Figures I thought, I hope they don’t shoehorn a love story into this movie. Then he showed up and I decided I was fine with it.

As a Chewbacca I tend to think of it the way I do the South and Slavery. A relatively small percentage of Southerners owned slaves and directly profited from the slave trade but almost all of them were racist as fuck and generally ok with the system as it existed, so fuck ‘em.

You’re impeached!

SIT DOWN PIERS, YOU FAT MOTHER[BLEEEEEEP]!

...I’m suddenly picturing an army of tiny Trumps singing “Build The Yellow Brick Wall”.

Get out of here. You know that the Munchkins are not sending their best and brightest. The Munchkins are sending rapists and criminals. They’re bringing problems with them. They’re bringing drugs, and they’re bringing crime. And a few Munchkins, I assume, are good people.

At least she didn’t get her shoes stolen by an ingrate from Kansas.

On one hand, I wanted to high five her. On the other hand, she just threatened her husband with what looked like a lovely, handmade scarf.

I think we’re playing fast and loose with terms here. You can consider La La Land a “chick flick,” but that’s not the same as a “woman-centered film.”

Cate Blanchett did get an award for that over-the-top groaner Blue Jasmine so even though Goopy should not be within 50 feet from an acting award, I think they made it up to Cate

Oldie but goldie:

I live in Portland, so I had to support the local (bad) girl. Plus, I was a young woman, and loved Tonya and her attitude so much more than vanilla Kerrigan. (well, until the whole kneecap-smashing thing)

So interesting how little empathy people are showing for this woman after her home was invaded and destroyed in such a personal manner. I wonder why that is? People seemed to have a bit more empathy for Kim K. Curious.

So basically I just shouldn’t even bother putting my tiny violin away. I need to find it too often these days.
