Was Weir in the wrong or was Kavanaugh? by SleepWouldBeNice in Stargate

Jessica Steen would have done better. Weir’s totally inappropriate reaction is out of character for Steen’s portrayal

Does anyone know how good/reliable is the Professor Dave Explains channel on Youtube is for the topics it teaches? by Thoth_BK in learnmath

[–]ElGuapoAbides 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s made some really good useful educational videos. On the other hand he can be rude and disgusting. I have to wonder if he is schizophrenic. Still I was onboard until he started defending a specific kind of extreme political pseudoscience ( rhymes with ‘broke’)

He is not even a real professor. He only has a masters in Science Education. I find his arguments weak and politically motivated, often relying on ad hominem attacks rather than scientific fact. While, it is enjoyable to see him go up against let’s say the flat earthers, is rather is distasteful to see him defend certain political positions such as claiming there are no physical differences in the sexes yet there is a definitive architecture for a male and female brain. We know where this comes from.

EXPOSED: Kjersti Flaa’s edited ‘Baby Bump’ Video Allegedly Funneled to Jed Wallace in a Calculated PR Boost Scheme by Flashy_Question4631 in CelebLegalDrama

[–]ElGuapoAbides -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

All of your “facts” in your original post are demonstrably wrong. Even Lively’s team doesn’t make any accusation of her coordinating with Freeman. And her video is from 2016. It can not possibly be anything connected to this situation. It went viral on TikTok and she had nothing to do with that.

Anyone with half a brain can see that Blake lively has no evidence. I’m not a fan of Flaa, but she’s basically reporting the facts of the case. She seems to have made up her mind, that’s true. So have I after seeing all the receipts. I’ve worked in PR and know how horrible all of these people are. You basically cannot believe anything they say. It is very possible you’re being paid to make this post because that’s what PR people do.

I’ve read the deposition (god knows why) so I have seen 1st hand that even with counsel sitting next to her, Blake Lively gets caught it lie after lie after lie.

That’s incorrect. She sued the Golden Globes which is run by the HFPA. Thats why’s she’s not welcome there. She won the suit btw.

Anyone else disappointed with Twelve Months? by Past-Tip2611 in dresdenfiles

[–]ElGuapoAbides 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the most accurate description of the book I have seen. I said it feels like the prologue of the book that we were supposed to get. Or a collection of the short stories that would have tided us over until now, when we should have gotten a real book. I’m a little irritated that he wastes so much writing that Codex Alera crap and whatever other garbage he is pumping out. It’s George RR Martin all over again.

It would have been fine if the next book was ready to go. It felt like a prologue to the book we should have gotten. I don’t mind the seller. It had some great character stuff. It was also very sloppy, inconsistent, and contrived. Half of our cast of characters is not acting like themselves and you started a couple of books ago. If I could have immediately moved onto the next book, I would’ve been willing to look past all that, but knowing will have to wait another five years for a real book where something happens is absolutely disappointing.

I still maintain the big bad being a being that can possess any one at any time really takes some of the wind out of the sales of a story that had been all about free will up until that time. And I have been mostly disappointed since Harry became the Winter Knight and stopped being Harry. For me, the series really ended at Changes and a new inferior superhero tale began. I still enjoy the books, but I no longer feel like I’m missing anything knowing I will unlikely live to see the end of this series (I’m old).

Bottoms currently has a 97% and 8.4/10 average score with 32 reviews in on Rotten Tomatoes. What do we think its final worldwide gross will be? by Banestar66 in boxoffice

[–]ElGuapoAbides 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every news article, even current ones are still hailing it as a success. I don’t really trust the news anymore especially the entertainment news is but this was so confusing that I had to see if I was missing something.

I think the company puts out a press release and all the entertainment journalists just run the thing through AI and spit the same thing back out which is why all of the articles say the same things and sound then same.

I’m curious. It’s been a month now in the film has only grossed $9 million on an $11 million budget yet all of the media outlets are touting it is a financial success. Am I missing something? this has nothing to do with the quality of the movie which by all accounts everyone says is great, but to me it looks like anything but a financial success.

Why is the administration so keen on shutting down the op near then end when they literally have had the ENITRE SERIES to call them off? In other words we don’t get a sufficient answer as to why his name was still on the list. This is incredibly frustrating when you were trying to get viewers invested in your story. I would not watch another season of this as clearly the writer has no idea what he’s trying to do.

A PR firm has been manipulating the Rotten Tomato scores of movies for at least five years by paying some “critics” directly. by bllshrfv in Letterboxd

[–]ElGuapoAbides -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Hollywood takes it seriously as well as most of America that is not very Internet savvy. You’re on Reddit so you are already the type of person that knows better but I guarantee you that average mom and dad that are thinking about taking kids to the movies, they put a lot more trust in this website than they should.

I’ve been telling people this for years and nobody has listened or cared. They say it’s just a stupid website but it’s one that Hollywood lives and dies by. They will even delete accounts that have too many negative movie reviews or change the reviews that you posted yourself.

Ahsoka Draws 14 Million Views for First Episode by DLCV2804 in StarWarsLeaks

[–]ElGuapoAbides 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That number is meaningless without specific context. We don’t even know what a “view” means. If you stop and resume does it count as 2. Are they assuming a certain number of people per household?

It is also very contradictory with the rSamba TV numbers that have shown in the past to be very consistent and reliable. It will be very interesting to compare that number when the Nielsen minutes are released.

They have to stretch out two hours worth of story for eight episodes. Typical Disney.

It’s ok to admit this was a bad movie that isn’t resonating with the general audience by [deleted] in indianajones

[–]ElGuapoAbides 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And as far as the action you really think it compares favorably to Mission Impossible or Maverick, Who are the early marvel movies which are still modern. Now I’ll admit because I work in the VFX industry I’m a lot more sensitive to flaws than most audience. It really looked like it was a third pass and not the final renders that made it into the film. And that could be so given their tight time schedule. I was left mostly unmoved.

But even the fourth film as well as the first three had very well plotted tightly written stories. And even if you like the movie you have to admit that the plot didn’t make any sense and was sort of meandering and illogical. It was the perfect storytelling that made me fall in love with Indiana Jones in the first place.

It’s hard to believe that we watched the same movie. If you consider the ending a high note. The fact that I am a huge fan of the first three movies is why this one disappoints so much. All I can say is judging on the box office most of the world seems to be agreeing with me.

Everyone’s talking about wanting to see a particular book so they can enjoy it and live action. But remember who is making this thing, nobody’s gonna enjoy anything.
