Yes, Kirsten would prefer to be apart from this. Jesus, writers!

I hate people who confuse “apart” and “a part.”

Couldn’t* 

Maybe don’t think of women as a number!!!  Maybe try to look at yourself - reflect on your rejections and figure out what it is about YOU and also genuinely look at the women as humans, that you might be interested in knowing / dating / etc - try this? 

There’s a lot going on right now with the police and, I suppose, influencers that warrants outrage. This isn’t one of them. Her family is paying police for extra staffing against a scary stalker. I can’t criticize either the influencer or the police in this particularly situation. The click-bait headline (“funds”),…

Even if she just eased up a bit. Some of the snark is so strident that I find myself feeling defensive of people I’ve never even heard of before. When it’s not funny it’s just kind of mean. 

I thinkNatalie Portman’s outfit, which includes a cape embroidered with the names of snubbed women directors, deserves more than an “it’s fine” brush off. 

She just got cast as the lead in Ridley Scott’s next movie, too....half of Hollywood allegedly hates Bradley Cooper, so I don’t know how many bridges she burned if she did fuck him (plus, he’s allegedly in the closet a la Travolta).

... it didn’t pan out? Her movie made 434 million dollars and she was nominated for an Oscar for acting, and won one for the song. I think it’s more likely she realised she could make an inconceivable amount of money doing Vegas (and/or she burned some bridges by fucking Bradley Cooper).

That is what your take away is from JoJo Rabbit? Is this the first movie you have ever seen?

This take is too hot. There is absolutely no way that you actually paid attention to the film. Right out the gates with “It is a movie that asks its audience to sympathize with a poor little Nazi boy who really wants to participate in the Holocaust” you show that you might not have even watched the movie. 

You really should not be a critic. I don’t say that in a snarky or demeaning way. I say that with the sincerity of someone who doesn’t always get movies, or people, or motives. Honestly, you brought nothing to the review other than a predetermined hatred of the movie, and seeing a movie in that state is not conducive…

Ummmmm... ya I’m going to just say I respectfully disagree with pretty much your entire take.  

My grandmother survived the Holocaust by being smuggled around German attics. Jojo Rabbit was my favorite movie of 2019. This is an appalling take on a movie that tells today’s kids what being a Nazi looks like and how to stop being a Nazi, by putting it in a frame they will actually pay attention to.

JoJo Rabbit isn’t trying to make you laugh along with Nazis. It illustrates how absurd the beliefs about the Jews were, how propaganda can influence even children, and how we must never stop fighting fascism.

Did you watch it? I doubt you did. Just like I doubt Joan Summers actually watched it, and if she did I don’t understand how she makes a living writing in English. 

I had a very different interpretation. Propaganda is seductive and it is easy for people (especially kids) to buy into the world-view they are being fed. His mom (and absent dad who was in the resistance) knew better; but couldn’t risk exposing him to what they were up to. He met a real Jewish person and discovered…

So very very late to the party...

Edit: The title would be “I kind of hope it was rats all along.”

Ok. My story is from 2016. I don’t know that it’s strictly scary, or at least, I wasn’t particularly scared at any point but it is creepy. For background on me, sometimes I feel things but I don’t usually SEE things.
