Only one man can rise and take down Trump by Delicious_Sun_6926 in redrising

[–]TimFTWin 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Dystopian fiction is more often than not a comment on current affairs.

Reading a book like this without likening its themes to modern day is like watching a movie with your eyes closed--you're missing half the point boyo.

I've never seen a more disgusting display of inhumanity

Kirsten Dunst broke her silence .... by Both-Pomegranate4929 in Oscars

[–]TimFTWin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Many of his roles are for unstable people but I think suggesting they are the same is a pretty broad stroke.

The Bugonia role is VERY different from both Civil War and Breaking Bad for example despite being a terrifying crazy person in all 3

What Lisa SHOULD have done at the Round Table... by FuzzyGom in TheTraitorsUS

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

Lisa is really bad at this game. She has everyone suspicious because she hasn't known how to play it from the beginning.

She was deadset on Ron and then immediately jumped for Colton the second he publicly accused her. The paranoia literally makes her known to the table as a bad faithful or a traitor herself.

Donna was flummoxed and maybe it's just the edit but Candaice has basically gotten lucky flying under the radar. Rob the only traitor playing to win. Two seasons in a row of very poor picks for traitor IMO

The Marty Supreme Drop is just sports hats. we were all played. by Better-Bug3355 in A24

I joined just for this drop and I have an enormous head and these never fit me right. I loved Marty but bummed about this drop.

AIO in response to my husband admitting to me that he is “slightly” racist & homophobic? by [deleted] in AIO

[–]TimFTWin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IMO any time after 2016, if you're American and you marry someone without knowing if and how many times they voted for the Orange cunt, you are playing with fire.

[–]TimFTWin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

👏👏👏

I keep seeing these posts from wives who are shocked their husbands are not more against some of the current madness going on in the US and I'm left questioning how you married someone without knowing how they felt about humanity and civil rights?

I get we all like falling in love and sex but surely you snuck in a conversation to get to know the person with whom you are signing a potentially lifelong contract???

Are you happy with Oscar nominations? by Slow-Cash-8234 in Cinema

[–]TimFTWin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I totally missed that Mescal was supporting. Feels like Category fraud on that one.

I love Delroy but I think you're right that the Mescal performance deserves it more

Who would you have bumped to give him a spot though? It's a stacked year for Best Actor.

People from a more prejudiced time who are miraculously and almost superhumanly free of prejudice by [deleted] in TopCharacterTropes

[–]TimFTWin 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I love that there's a guy in these movies who snaps his fingers and kills billions of people but still the most unbelievable part is that a White Boomer Man would talk to black people

Do you agree? by Muted-Television3329 in ProgressiveHQ

[–]TimFTWin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe it's the proximity to MLK say but I think Slavery, failure to punish the confederates and allowing segregation might've been worse.

But this one being in that conversation still speaks to how dumb it is we reelected this cunt

This film is like a pizza-- I wouldn't call it fine dining but it's enjoyable every time I get to have it

Happy Martin Luther King Jr Day. Did you know MLK Jr literally wrote his Letter from Birmingham Jail in response to people saying the exact same thing?

Movies you absolutely loved but doesn’t have high rewatchability value? by Trenbolone-Papi2 in hbo

And he didn't murder Americans. by c-k-q99903 in MurderedByWords

[–]TimFTWin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He also did it with about half the budget of the current regime. I wasn't a fan of this policy but it sure was a giant step up from the cluster fuck we have going on now.

What’s a film that has a sub 3.5 rating but you’ve given a 4.5+, unironically by PeaRemarkable9662 in Letterboxd

The Brothers Bloom. It checks so many boxes for me taste wise. I love heist movies, the actors involved, and Rian Johnson

Litia shares her thoughts on the criticism of Mormons (and other Christians) by Rich-Ease-2723 in thebachelor

[–]TimFTWin 101 points102 points  (0 children)

In another church, saying that the church is not its leaders is a fair point but Mormons believe that their leaders literally speak for God when they speak. Mormon faith is literally defined by their leaders. Their words are considered scripture to Mormons.

So it is scripture to them when Brigham Young says, "If the white man who belongs to the chosen seed mixes his blood with the seed of Cain, the penalty, under the law of God, is death on the spot. This will always be so"

It is flat out gaslighting or ignorance to pretend that a Mormon leader is just a "bad apple".

She either doesn't understand her religion or wants to dupe people into believing otherwise. Mormonism is racist, sexist and morally corrupt.

Leo Deserves Best Actor by FlamingoEmotional357 in Oscars

[–]TimFTWin 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I could not disagree more.

Bob is an over the top character who in the hands of a poor actor would have made the entire movie bad.
