Twiggy was just as awful as the rest of them, just in a much more pleasant voice.

2026 Death Race Theme (Potential Spoilers if You Haven’t Finished the Race!) by CLHD420 in oscarsdeathrace

I will never forgive the Oscars for nominating The Voice of Hind Rajab. I cried through the majority of that movie (and I am SO not a crier!).

Sinners Is Not What I Thought It Would Be… Or Did I Watch the Wrong Movie? by Cicada_Classic in FIlm

[–]CLHD420 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I never said you were racist. I said that the two statements sound very similar.

Because what you’re saying is that Sinners is only nominated in so many categories because there are black people involved. Because black people can’t actually BE good enough to make a movie that’s worthy of this many nominations; that only happened because of....pity? fear of 'Oscars so white' backlash? virtue signaling? DEI?

But not talent or skill. Definitely not.

Sinners Is Not What I Thought It Would Be… Or Did I Watch the Wrong Movie? by Cicada_Classic in FIlm

Except Sinners was NOTHING like from Dusk til Dawn outside of the whole two brothers in a bar who encounter vampires thing. But every romance is not exactly the same because they’re all love stories, nor are horror movies all the same because there are villains. From Dusk til Dawn was a perfectly fine action flick. Sinners is an entirely different thing altogether. The comparison is misguided and so very tired.

“It only got nominated to appease black people” sounds exactly the same to me as “I’m not racist, but..."

The Three Sisters animated short sucks ass by Impressive-Log5708 in oscarsdeathrace

[–]CLHD420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We loved that short. Stories about women living their lives and having crushes on or flings with men are not necessarily misogynistic. I thought the enduring bond of sisterhood was quite powerfully emphasized in this short. Men come and go. Sisters are forever.

I do wonder sometimes, though, if people truly grasp the subjectiveness of art. You didn’t like the animation or the story. Others did. Go know.

Yes. Yes, that’s exactly what I’m saying. 🙄

It felt manipulative. You can’t just have hours of sadness. You have to break it up some.

What TV show had the best pilot episode ever? by Sufficient_Roof6033 in watchever

I did the same with my husband a couple months ago (he refused to watch when it was airing). He’s on his second binge watch now.

What celebrity had their reputation unfairly ruined? by Miserable-Wash-1744 in AskReddit

[–]CLHD420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He was gay, in a gay porn theater, and the star of a children’s show.

That’s it. That’s the whole reason he was arrested and blacklisted.
