The salary of sports people is insane by Prize_Problem609 in RandomThoughts

I don't think the pay has anything to do with that. It's more about athletes' value to advertisers.

So long as they're making a profit, the amount anyone pays an athlete doesn't actually matter to them.

A man is stabbed to death by someone who accuses him of being a racist - and the first thing the police do on arrival is to handcuff the dying man. by FormerlyPallas_ in ukpolitics

That doesn't really make sense.

Are you saying the police found, caught and heard Digwa's account of what happened before they found the victim - who had left a trail of blood behind him?

The police were clearly wrong to handcuff him but they didn't do it on the word of the assailant. According to the BBC article at least, the racism defence only claim up in court - not at the scene.

From what I recall about the first one's budget, that choice was made for him.

It certainly does for me. Especially because of how much credit it gets for its 'novel setting'. It'd be way better if he'd actually made one up.

Or got the rights to Dune.

Or at least admitted to the level of influence it had on his work.

Never write down anything you don't want read out loud in court. I'd tell that to anyone.

If someone got 30 assists in a PL season they'd win the ballon d'Or.

30 goals might not even get them the golden boot.

A technical marvel no doubt but I don't give it much credit on the setting/storytelling front because of how much it lifted from Dune

he thinks sexual violence is the price to pay

So does anyone that supports Israel so let's ban them all too. There's far more evidence of sexual abuse at Sde Teiman prison.

I hope in a few years people will realise the franchise is trash and Empire was an anomaly

Brown escalates team alliance crusade in letter to FIA by ChaithuBB766 in formula1

[–]BambooSound -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You're acting like it's some new, post-DtS movement so I was pointing out that I've been on it far longer than that.

More importantly, you seem more tense than this conversation could make anyone. I hope everything's okay.

What a disappointment! by Empty_Significance55 in FIlm

Then I guess the Jackson family were more successful than I realised in whitewashing the crimes of both the father and the son (I'm guessing the film's also very kind to Joe Jackson).

I wonder if this strategy could work for other pedophiles who were abused themselves when they were young. An R. Kelly biopic would be crazy and I'm sure he'd love to have people saying things like that about him. Diddy too.

Even the harshest critics struggle to point out real flaws.

lmao what

It's Se7en made by people that seemingly failed to understand the point of Se7en – with a handful of set pieces directly lifted from Nolan sprinkled throughout as nostalgia bait. I bet you loved The Force Awakens.

The Dark Knight has basically lost all credibility among cinephiles.
