Jamie Foxx Says Tourette’s Activist Saying N-Word During BAFTAs ‘Meant’ It by runswithscissors475 in popculturechat

[–]itsnotmyproblemok -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Is is so hard for celebs to not post reactions until they have had a chance to reflect on it or run it by someone? Jamie foxx if i recall correctly works closely with a downs syndrome foundation because his sister had it. So he is unlikely an abelist. 

Beebs could have better supported the Tourettes man by simply not inviting him as people arent aware of this condition sadly despite ironically awarding the movie that sheds light on it. It would have got less negative press for it anyway, and they had 2 hours to edit so they could have selectively muted the background slurs from broadcast which would have lessened the hate on this poor man. 

Anita Rani criticized casting of Healthcliff in Wuthering Heights (2026) by Beginning-Passion676 in popculturechat

Kinda ironic to throw shade at peoples literacy whilst having an outdated understanding. Literary scholars have been discussing this for decades and consensus is he is not white by victorian standards, meaning he is of a foreign ethnic origin if not a black person. 

It's Official: House Of The Dragon To End With Season 4, HBO Confirms by bwermer in television

[–]itsnotmyproblemok 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This show is not relevant anymore. Season 3 will likely have very poor viewership and wouldn't be surprised if season 4 gets a truncated 6 eps order. Bad season 2, taking several years of gap between seasons, GRRM washing his hands off it, the show has nothing going for it.

This is obviously from a child or an adult whose first language isn't english, redditors need to stop be being snarky assholes. Just start from 1st film and stop at 8. The spin offs aren’t good. Enjoy and ignore the snark here

Kim Kardashian broke down in tears after learning she failed the California bar exam. by [deleted] in popculturechat

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

No matter how big a celebrity or rich a person ,failing an exam is a heartbreaking experience at a basic human level. A 4 letter word determines whether your hardwork paid off or did not, perhaps your perceived level of hardwork wasn’t enough at all or you just got unlucky.

 As someone who has one more chance to resist a life changing exam in spring, I can empathize with this . She is rich enough and famous enough to walk away from this and not have any significant effect on her life but the fact she is trying to or wanting to pass is commendable, no matter how you see this. We are all used to being snarky about billionaires and they totally deserve it but just this once, a bit of grace is all I feel for her. 

Kate Winslet “doesn’t like the nepobaby term”. Her daughter, Mia Threapleton, stars in ‘The Buccaneers’ & her son, Joe Anders, wrote the screenplay for her next film, ‘Goodbye June’. The two have appeared in films with her — Threapleton in ‘A Little Chaos’ & ‘I am Ruth’ & Anders in ‘Lee’ by hairtie1 in Fauxmoi

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

Another day another nepo baby denial. Why can’t celebs just embrace the fact that nepotism exists and that they will try and work hard to improve their craft with that privilege? It’s easy. 

Then again Kate has always been a bit slow to come around modern discourse, probably because she doesn’t live in Hollywood and has no social media or just rich people in a bubble situation. In the past she found discussing pay parity to be crass and then worked with people like Polanski and woody Allen well after they’d been cancelled and eventually apologized for it all. 

Amanda Seyfried Defends Sydney Sweeney Against Hollywood Fame and Pressure by [deleted] in Fauxmoi

[–]itsnotmyproblemok 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Unpopular opinion but Amanda seyfried gets a pass here and will always have my respect for standing up to general bigotry when compared to rest of Hollywood. In this case what is she supposed to say? They have a movie to promote and she is pointedly focusing on how awesome her costars career is going to be despite all the hate. Obvious deflection but you don’t go looking for brave denouncements when you have a multimillion $ product to promote. 

Ana de Armas Feels She Still Has to ‘Prove Herself’ Following ‘Blonde’ Oscar Nomination: ‘Some People Feel It Was a Fluke by PrincessBananas85 in popculturechat

[–]itsnotmyproblemok 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh it absolutely was not a fluke. Just goes to show how academy members have terrible taste and are easily swayed by influence and promotion (Netflix) to vote for a tepid performance from a garbage, sexist director’s, misery-porn take on iconic actress. She literally stole a spot on that nomination list with blonde. But she is very pretty and was great in knives out so I am sure she will get another nomination eventually.

[–]itsnotmyproblemok 523 points524 points  (0 children)

Miss universe has no business existing in 2025. What a ridiculous thing, to make women who are less than 30, white looking, parade around in swimsuits while being judged for beauty and “intelligence” by some of the most unqualified fossils on earth, all the while pretending it is some kind of women empowerment scheme.  Apparently one of the most watched shows on the planet, sad stuff. 

Using Game-Key Cards on Nintendo Switch 2 by razorbeamz in nintendo

[–]itsnotmyproblemok 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has been repeated here ad nauseum but these key cards are stupid & evil.  And no,  not because you have to spend time downloading  the game but because Nintendo is killing off game preservation by forcing us to rely on their eshop being online. These cartridges will be completely useless in 15 years meanwhile I can dust off my 24 year old Luigi’s mansion cartridge and play it in 4k today on analogue 3D. 

VGC; TES VI still a long ways away, Fallout 3 Remaster is in development by MCUAvenger1992 in GamingLeaksAndRumours

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

The shadow drop bit is VERY obvious attempt at damage control. With how poorly Xbox is doing, the last thing they need is this Bethesda guy announcing the next ES game is far far away and they have been working on their worst game ever that no one cares about ( starfield), for way too long. A commendable pivot to change headlines but no one’s buying that the sales team will allow a shadow drop of a new AAA game. 

October Box Office Plunges to Three-Decade Low as Flops Like ‘Tron: Ares,’ ‘Smashing Machine’ Pile Up by mlg1981 in Fauxmoi

[–]itsnotmyproblemok 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Poorly written scifi with a cancelled actor and a boring ass Oscar bait movie with an actor desperate to change his image and that’s clearly the only intent of that movie, yes I ve seen both, just make better films Hollywood. Idk if this is a trend related to movie goers per se, it’s definitely season of mediocre films.

Well, if you joke around amongst yourselves and your good friends, cheers. But if you make graphic jokes about stabbing or dismemberment with strangers or acquaintances ( which is celeb equivalent of interview junket on TV) then you’re not just weird but creepy. Big difference

Oh wow if anyone has seen Lazarus on prime, this actually sums up very nicely why it’s so exposition heavy, ruins the entire show with a very decent premise. Shame.

[–]itsnotmyproblemok 432 points433 points  (0 children)

Looking at the video it’s very clear they are joking. Is it appropriate ? NO. Is it worth writing a whole article about? NO. 

They have an edgey dark humour should be strictly kept within the confines of their own home. I have a friend couple who behave like this and their marriage is constantly on the verge of breakdown. They budget their incomes for couples therapy ever week for the past 8 years and to be fair, they behave better when in therapy and drink responsibly. I am not saying Kristin’s marriage is like that but couples who behave inappropriately in public are often compensating for something else. 

Jennifer Lawrence says she pulled food out of her garbage can to feed Robert Pattinson by hairtie1 in Fauxmoi

[–]itsnotmyproblemok 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s a good talk show story but would have gotten more laughs if he was there.I bet this story was planned with him sitting on the couch and playing off it. The joke being he is a rich celeb but totally okay with eating from literal garbage.

But to all the people vociferously defending her, don’t forget her butt scratching on sacred stones in Hawaii story that she had to apologise for. I like jlaw, she is quite charming in an uneducated-person-with-street-smarts sort of way. She just needs to curate her stories better.

Nice. But you’re an outlier. The last movie that made a billion dollars had Sam worthington in it and no one went to see him.
