You know it’s not really about Barbie though, right? RIGHT? 

...the Motion Picture Academy declined to nominate director Greta Gerwig and star Margot Robbie—and yet the film received a Best Picture nomination, so maybe someone can explain how it did that without its director or star.

there is literally no other valid reason to buy a different color

This doesn’t make much sense. The point of the movie is that Ken was being overlooked.

it can be all that and still not be worth nominating. she’s already been nominated twice and is up as a producer for barbie.

To truly name a snub you need to name what it should replace.  That’s tough to do with Best Director this year.  Yes it’s unfortunate that Gerwig did not get nominated for doing an excellent job with an excellent film, but it’s hard to pick someone to kick out of the 5 who were nominated.

Yeah look i’m not up in arms about any of it, but i’ll give you my replacements and just to note, but everything I mentioned was in contention one way or the other, like none of my replacements are out of left field.

Margot Robbie didn’t get snubbed, I don’t think. She was perfectly good and did exactly what the role required, but it was hardly groundbreaking stuff. It’s exactly what you would expect from an A-list actor in a studio film.

Greta’s snub will be more and more shameful as time goes by.

I think the originating country has to choose it, and whoever decides these things in Germany went with the other one. (Possibly as a tactical decision, hoping Anatomy Of A Fall would get that Best Picture nomination.)

So what we need is something like a newer, greener version of the New Deal. Too bad half the country thinks such a thing is “woke socialism.”

A connected chain of efficient buses running autonomously on a track?? What next, you’re going to say they run 24/7 and only cost a dollar to ride? What socialist future are you living in?!

Yeah, the passenger cars are the stupid part.

LOL, way to Shame Musk & Co. Those pods have been washed away from their site, and you can only find videos of them where they imbedded them.

Yelp reviews determining what is almost certainly a billion-dollar project.  LOL.

I’m not saying Vegas has good, or even decent public transit, but the tunnel is stupid because it’s just some person driving people in a Tesla, just under ground. It is literally the ideal situation for fully autonomous vehicles, 100% controlled environment, but they STILL have to pay someone to drive the car.

Seriously get me on the payroll. I will lie for money too. Being a shill (for money) is not beneath me.

Bad ideas are no match for money.

why don’t they just build a subway system
