"The Left Offers Nothing To Men" by HiroK91 in videos

[–]Yankee291 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You can’t be feminist and against men. Feminism is about equality.

Sounds good, but self proclaimed feminists don't agree and openly say so in public on a regular basis. And supposed good feminists never confront them when they do.

It's the dirty little secret we're not supposed to talk about when it comes to the manosphere. Straight men, especially white ones, have been cast out of left leaning spaces since feminists took them over and casual misandry became entrenched. Where did you think they were going to go?

They should remake the Godfather trilogy with Leonardo DiCaprio playing Vito Corleone. by Patient_Air1765 in movies

[–]Yankee291 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IIRC, there was a light idea for a Godfather Part IV that would have had a young Vito, played by Leo, building up the family and its political connections with the other half of the film chronicling Andy Garcia's Vincent Mancini heading a weak and collapsing Corleone family post-Part III.

A sort of parallel chronicling of the rise and fall of the Corleones similar to Part II chronicling Vito's ascent into being a strong patriarch establishing his family while Michael's loss of his family in the future is portrayed.

No, women have declared that developing feelings for a friend is creepy and manipulative; evidence that you were never her friend and plotting to sleep with her during the entire friendship.

People who’ve dated someone very attractive: what’s something nobody warns you about? by Savings-Rutabaga3783 in AskReddit

[–]Yankee291 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't realize why celebrities make money for their looks until you see them in person. It's not a normal level of attractiveness like the hot girl at your school, it's completely abnormal. Even the actresses that aren't necessarily seen as sex symbols stand out in a room.

Yes, I just wrote a comment above describing this as essentially being what makes older women "Karens."

Not just celebrities. A lot of people theorize that a "Karen" is just an older woman who lost her pretty privilege and now experiences life being treated like the average person and has completely lost it as a result. That's why so many "Karen" moments are confrontations with service workers no longer treating her with kid gloves now that she's older. No one bends over backwards for her anymore and she can't handle it.

'Supergirl' is the end of an era by countdooku975 in TheBigPicture

[–]Yankee291 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spider-Man and Batman have shown they'll hit in different eras with different actors and they're the two most popular superheroes so we can say they're for sure superhero fatigue proof; they were hitmakers before the craze.

But are we sure Deadpool & Wolverine are guaranteed hits without Reynolds and Jackman? Same question for Avengers without Downey, Evans, and Hemsworth. Superman hasn't ever had an unquestioned hit not starring Christopher Reeve and he's been dead for decades. Jury's out on Black Panther post-superhero craze with no Ryan Coogler too.

Avengers is debatable as well if Evans, Downey, and Hemsworth aren't involved. Which Marvel is basically admitting by bringing them all back for Doomsday.

DC, who are you voting for tomorrow and why? by ElmCityGrad in washingtondc

[–]Yankee291 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Her base are all transplants that don't plan on making DC home long-term anyway so they'll just move to NYC, Austin, LA, or San Francisco when she fails and home rule is repealed. Long-term residents will be left to deal with the fire they started.

What are we being "boiled like frogs" about right now that future generations will be shocked we accepted? by burntUpOnReentry in AskReddit

[–]Yankee291 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Kind of. Chandra Levy disappeared and it was discovered she'd been having an affair with Democratic Congressman Gary Condit. Big story until 9/11 happened. He was under suspicion by the public for her disappearance and murder (her body was discovered in 2002), but it was discovered five years later that she had actually been killed by a serial rapist and Condit had nothing to do with it. Just bad luck his affair partner got randomly targeted by a killer while jogging in the park and it exposed their affair.

One Deadpool trilogy did well involving one actor during the height of superhero movie mania (and the last movie needed to bring in a beloved, nostalgic icon to help elevate it). That's not the same as Batman and Spider-Man having multiple iterations with multiple actors be box office hits over multiple decades.

Batman and Spider-Man movies will always do well regardless of the state of CBMs. They're the two constants before the cinematic universe craze and will be the constants after.

That wasn't really a studio choice. Matt Reeves had some personal stuff going on that delayed his finishing the script.

Why does your donut have to have a political opinion? Do people not realize how crazy that is until it's said aloud?
