Here is my thought on cartoons and representation

I know it’s probably a difficult time for Harry Potter fans and they may be starting to get embarrassed about their HP fandom, but if it’s any help, they should have already been deeply embarrassed about being Harry Potter fans.

If I might make an attempt at nuance here, the idea that many psychiatrists are too quick to throw pills at something and call it a day is both true and a big problem. I speak from personal experience - I struggled for years futilely against clinical depression with a series of RXs that never much helped until I…

Or maybe, juuuuuuuuust maybe, it’s the random internet commenter, and not a master of cinema, that doesn’t get horror.

Most of the examples of blackface being removed are either 100% harmless or are actually a commentary on racial dynamics and the stupidity of blackface.  God this push this week to remove these particular episodes are dumb as fuck.

I want to know why people voicing characters of other races is a problem. I know that sounds trolling but I’m sincere.

Dragon Age Inquisition overwhelming? I dunno what to tell you man, but it was underwhelming if anything. If you find that game overwhelming I’d imagine that most rpg’s would be overwhelming for you. There really wasn’t much to that game.

Wait- you think that the character Jane Krakowski played on 30Rock wasn’t “bad”? That’s like her entire character, she literally had to be talked down from making a blog called “Jenna’s Side” because she didn’t think it sounded at all like “genocide”.

Well the video is marked as private so I can’t quite judge the sketch, but it appears as though the point was, honestly, exactly in line with the times going by the description: Being believed to be black automatically provokes police to violence, and being white gives you a ton of leeway. But I can’t see it so who…

Yeah, it was really sad to watch the guy who directed ‘The Natural,’ ‘ Young Sherlock Holmes,’ and ‘Good Morning, Vietnam’ go down the road of generic Hollywood crap.

A Fish Called Wanda, Die Hard, Beetlejuice and Big are all cruddy movies? SURE thing. 

I even passed on a date with a woman I was painfully hot for because she wanted to see this at a local revival theater.

So to paraphrase “I was four years old and knew about Nazis and the Confederacy and used that knowledge to take a moral stand against Gone with the Wind.” That is the dumbest lie I’ve heard in a long time.

Is a “Gold Star” lesbian one whose family member died in the service of homosexuality? Or is it a lesbian who makes Cincinnati-style chili?

That’s called “nuance” and it’s been dead for years. 

“I’ll ruin you like a season of ‘Orange is the New Black’!”

Good acting.

Yes, it is exactly “fine.”

The only thing this accomplished was making me crave a Crown Burger.
