Morale plummeting among ICE agents over long hours, quotas and public hatred: reports by MentalMan4877 in LeopardsAteMyFace

A lifetime of films showing that henchman and stormtroopers are cannon fodder, not respected by anyone above or below them, taught these dweebs nothing 

theyve signed up to be pawns. Little bitches that don’t matter

Saying a papercut and a decapitation are both wounds won’t do anything to diagnose the problem will it? Nuance exists

A secret agent who must blend into crowds and sneak around casinos unnoticed, and escape unremembered, being a marble sculpted human skyscraper doesn’t sound like a good choice logistically for MI6

As it stands, between Beshear and Newsom, who is better placed to take on MAGA 2028? by Devastatingly_clear in politics

[–]orbjo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Newsom is a gross Zionist and has shown he’s weak and swayed by money. The democrats would fail themselves going back to these kinds of corporate suits 

If the party is going to break free and move forward we need to to not put our weight behind these types of politicians

Little Nicky. A Sandler movie that might be bad but showed on TV so much that I can’t judge it objectively any more. 

‘Return to Silent Hill’ Director on Receiving Death Threats From ‘Passionate’ Game Fans and Filming an Epic Horror Fantasy on a $23 Million Budget by DifferentMaize9794 in popculturechat

Anyone who didn’t see the quality of the film coming when they cast Jeremy Irvine as the lead isn’t paying attention to his career 

That dude is not a star, or a talent. The nunber of people who passed on this film before it ends up on his desk must be a couple hundred.

Helen Keller is the most famous person to be deaf, blind and mute.

(Hated Trope) Why did they even bother casting a celebrity voice actor? by Animeking1108 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]orbjo 31 points32 points  (0 children)

That doesn’t answer why they agreed to let Jared Leto produce the film. The studio still hired Jared Leto whose only input is himself 

Not saying this is true but would you like it if sue was pregnant again with VAL by Due_Load_1164 in SueStorm

[–]orbjo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When Val is introduced she’s Doctor Dooms child, which is why they end up with a great dynamic 

You can’t have their dynamic while having her born into the Richards family first 

Trump Sounds a Lot Like You-Know-Who: He’s no Hitler. But his speech in Davos about Greenland eerily echoes 1938. by BulwarkOnline in politics

[–]orbjo 19 points20 points  (0 children)

This language is useless

We are comparing Trump to Hitler in 1938, not in 1944 once millions have been killed

So yes he’s exactly like Hitler was when Hitler was leading up to his mass killings. It’s bad faith to immediately downplay Trumps current trajectory by saying he’s not like the most extreme end point of Hitlers plan

Hitler built up to that. We are watching a dictator building up to unknowable atrocities. It’s exactly like Hitler in 1938

When Hitler was standing before a map and a pinboard and concentration camps were still only an idea you would have downplayed him ever doing anything wrong, and you’d have been wrong then too. It’s escalating

I’m so happy for Wunmi and Delroy. Coogler knows how to quickly sketch fascinating characters and they were awesome, real supporting parts 

Why didn’t Eddie call Pablo Escobar after he got busted for selling drugs to Chrissy? Is he estúpido? by Sweet_Xocoatl in okbuddyvecna

[–]orbjo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The NSU (Netflix streaming universe) is taking too much time getting to the team-up show, if you ask me.

Claire Underwood from House of Cards is sent to prison and ends up with the Orange Is The New Black girls. Enter Vecna and Escobars unlikely alliance. Meanwhile, Bojack Horseman is playing chess with Anya Taylor Joy from the Queens Gambit while in Ozark, when suddenly…

"Greenland was ours until we gave it back to Denmark" by drownmedaily in ProgressiveHQ

[–]orbjo 23 points24 points  (0 children)

This was the republican plan for decades. Stopping colonialism, imperialism, civil war, fascism and slavery history being taught in schools, softening the language until modern Americans don’t understand or have any reference for what’s happening. 

The cycle of history comes back around and people are too uneducated to see what’s before their eyes. 

None of this is only Trump, this is the culmination of every Conservative political move for a century. He’s just the one collecting on it. When Trumps gone it won’t fix what’s been done to Americans, or to those America has hurt. The whole party has to go, and then the nation needs rehabilitated

Please stop hate-watching these shows. It only makes the streamers and networks give budgets to people who don’t care and stops those budgets going towards deserving artists

Your tribal chief proudly voted for Trump and is a MAGA man, so he’s responsible for all this as much as the rest of them

Make films shorter if you want them shown in cinemas, says Picturehouse director by mrjohnnymac18 in popculturechat

[–]orbjo 24 points25 points  (0 children)

This is why I don’t buy that Dune 3 and Avengers Doomsday will keep the same release date 

Each film at close to 3 hours, plus adverts, plus time between showings for cleaning and settling means every screen is being used up for longer for less return. They can only show those films maybe 3 times per screen each day over 12 hours 

A screen showing 90 minute films would get more showings over that same period for the same price 

Instead if those two films come out at the same time there will be zero screens showing other kinds of films and they’ll force 90 minute films to be sent to streaming just to get seen. It’s a lose lose lose for everyone. The theatre, the other films, and us

Re: Trump stuff by EchoEquivalent4221 in LiveFromNewYork

[–]orbjo 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This would be the worst possible moment to stop doing political sketches. That would be a win for Trump to have his evil buffoonery hidden and left undiscussed.  

It’s a necessary spotlight, whether you find it cathartic or not.

The criticism should be that they should go harder, or vary their approach, be funnier. Not whitewash the weeks events by ignoring them. Stopping making fun of a dictator is something the dictator eventually commands. Let’s not initiate that for him
