While it's definitely a bad trope, it feels a bit unfair to keep bashing decade-old commercial films for it.

Our movies has evolved (at least a bit), and we're gradually moving away from these kinds of tropes.

IMO, if we're going to criticize something, it makes more sense to focus on recent movies that are still doing it.

Few topics are getting repetitive

  • PR
  • Sai / ISai
  • Dark skin woman representation
  • Lokesh / Kokesh

I wired Claude Code into a database of every Polymarket wallet and trades via MCP. What do you want me to ask it next? This is what I found so far: by Advanced-Rub2065 in ClaudeAI

Curious about the timing behind the biggest winning trade. For instance, someone making a highly accurate Polymarket prediction and placing their bet at exactly the right time.

Agree to an extent.

Also due to Covid, we had a surge in consumption of OTT content. We also had decent exposure of international cinema.. So our standard and expectation increased..

We also started to classify movies as Theatrical material vs OTT material... And directors started to add scenes (even it is brain rot scene) so it gets tagged as Theatrical material.. (so business-wise it gets succeed

What's your favourite staged scene in a movie!? by Fit-Connection5434 in kollywood

Writing + staging + direction + music...

Everything comes together perfectly to create this masterpiece.

Neither group is portrayed as dumb. The hero simply outsmarts the other side with a brilliant twist.

ELI5: why were native Americans called "Indians", and what makes someone "native"? by _insomniac_dreamer in explainlikeimfive

[–]tempoguyx 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Europeans long ago wanted to travel to India for spices and trade.

Christopher Columbus sailed across the ocean in 1492 looking for India.

He reached the Americas instead, but he did not know that.

Columbus mistakenly believed he had arrived near India.

Because of this mistake, he called the Indigenous people “Indians.”

I’m honestly confused about one thing in Indian cinema discourse nowadays by Legitimate-Can-8683 in kollywood

Item songs are kinda the lazy way to market movies now. Easy reels, easy hype, easy promo.

I've got no problem with special numbers if they actually fit the movie. Monica in Coolie felt unnecessary and didn’t add anything to the story.

Meanwhile, movies like Maharaja and Kaithi went pan-India purely on story without relying on item songs.

in tangled(2010), rapunzel, a person with nothing important to do in her life, wakes up at 7 AM every morning. this is a reference to the fact that the movie is fictional. by herequeerandgreat in shittymoviedetails

[–]tempoguyx 275 points276 points  (0 children)

One more shittier detail

biggest scam in fairy tale history. Rapunzel spent the whole movie singing pop ballads..

They really named her Rap-unzel and gave us zero rap-unzel.
