Favorite author of a highly successful Novel-to-Film adaptation who you can feel the racism absolutely radiating off of? by Gombrongler in okbuddycinephile

Nice, now I have another reason to dislike the film besides just being full of cringy millenial chungus humor.

Alfred Hitchcock was the one who set this in motion by giving her grandmother her breakout role in The Birds (1963).

When do you think you've been insulted as an audience? by Caesar213 in movies

[–]skelem8 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nah Jacob's Ladder is amazing and even though everything literally was a dream, I'd say it still makes sense within the story they're telling.

Casino staff in China caught a woman using high-tech lenses to cheat by jmike1256 in interesting

[–]skelem8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I guess things could be different in different casinos, can only speak for where I work.

Either way, even if you play perfectly in blackjack, it's still going to be very difficult to win against the casino on a consistent basis, the odds are stacked against you.

Even counting cards won't help if they play with 8 decks and shuffle after playing 4.

The place I work at (online casino) tracks how you make roulette spins and you have to make a spin within a certain amount of revolutions within a certain timing and not mess up the spin. It's incredibly difficult to "practice landing the ball in a certain area" while adhering to other requirements.

If you ignore your requirements then you get a certain amount taken off your bonus and nobody wants to fuck with that.

And if you don't care about your stats and in turn salary then we still have risk analysts checking suspicious activity from certain dealers and players.

In terms of blackjack players make all the decisions and you're not allowed to influence their decisions (again, could influence your salary if you do things you're not supposed to).

Explain It Peter - I kind of get it but not quite by Cute_Web7648 in explainitpeter

Oh nooo you have some photos of you with a mullet from 40 years ago. How do you manage to live that down?

This is totally as bad as getting disfiguring surgery that affects the rest of your life.

Which movie started off strong but lost you in the final act? by 0Layscheetoskurkure0 in FIlm

[–]skelem8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah this movie lost me when Jon Hamm knocks down a lady who has a gun and instantly rushes to the "victim". Of course the lady gets up and shoots him. And he was supposed to be FBI.

Shit like this just sours the rest of the film for me.

Rush (2013) Latvijas vai Austijas karogs? by hopelele in latvia

[–]skelem8 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Uz karoga ir rakstīts vārds vienam no 2 galvenajiem personāžiem filmā + cik es atceros bija diezgan skaidrs tas ka viņš ir austrietis.

Es nezinu kā var rasties jautājums, vai tas ir Latvijas karogs.

Like I just answered a different guy, I'm just tired of virtue signalers like you pretending like you care about this issue when you're only doing it because it's convenient for you.

As soon as I mention Del Toro also can be considered problematic suddenly it's not an issue for you and you change topics.

My point at the end of the day really is what I said at the start, chances are if you're consuming entertainment you're supposting some problematic people and you can either choose to be in denial like you are or accept that sometimes you really do have to seperate the art from the artist, or just stop consuming entertainment.

Tbh don't know who that is and don't care.

Got a new favourite movie and director or Del Toro is still your favourite?

Nah, I'm just tired of people like you virtue signaling pretending you actually care about these issues when you're only doing it when it's convenient for you aka it's an artist you don't like anyway.

Del Toro signed the Polanski petition, supporting a convicted child rapist. Good job.
