There’s believable ways to show girls beating men up, I think Linda hamilton’s breakout from the mental institution in T2 was a FANTASTIC one. She relies on ambushes and smart utilization of weapons around her to make up for her size and strength disadvantage And the actress Emily Blunt said it perfectly: ““It’s the worst thing ever when you open a script and read the words ‘strong female lead,'” Blunt told The Telegraph. “That makes me roll my eyes. I’m already out. I’m bored.” She added, “Those roles are written as incredibly stoic, you spend the whole time acting tough and saying tough things.”” Modern female leads are perfect without training, and so stoic and strong so as to not give the actor any actual range to act. Also makes them completely unrelateable to the audience Look at even Linda Hamilton from T2 again. Strong, stoic, kick ass, but falls on her butt crying like a little girl when she sees her nightmare come to life, the original Terminator walking up to her (before she realized it’s a good guy this time). Perfectly relateable to even the strongest of women. Also cries and breaks down when she almost killed that scientist who made Skynet in front of his family | |||

He also at one point said no one under the age of 65 who has had covid should get a vaxx. That’s not nearly as bad as saying no one under the age of 65 should get a vaxx, to me that would be crazy. Because that’s assuming that no person under 65 has a compromised immune system due to either their shit lifestyle and/or other genetic factors But I guess he’s assuming “well if they survived covid once, they’ll for sure survive it again”. And while I do agree that I bet covid antibodies are better than vaxx antibodies, even that statement I am skeptical about | |||

Hmmmm why would you praise a quack like Vinay Prasad pushing misinformation for crazy ideologies then complain about state and government agencies looking to protect their citizens? Oh that’s right you trust your uninformed grifting podcast hosts over anything sane. Want to by a cellular service that donates to causes you are against :rolleyes Ridiculous At what point do you step back Baler and figure out your kinfolk taught you hateful wrong information that you never question. | |||

Sometimes it works, such as the Spider-Verse movies. Loathe as I am to like a superhero movie, they found a way to make it broadly appealing. Good writing. Sometimes it doesn't, like when Anheuser-Busch misread the fuck out of their customer base. I don't know how that one slipped past any of them, you could go to any given beach in Florida in the last fifty years and figure that one out. Bad writing. | |||

Sure movies historically had a lack of non-white heroes, but usually villains were never always black, or whatever. Often villains were a decent mix, probably still mostly white though But now, there’s a flip to where most heroes seem to be non-white but almost all villains seem to be white men. And like I said, not like a cool type of villain like, um, Anton Chigur from No Country for Old Men. No, like bumbling, power-crazed, dumb white men There was even an actor or director or someone who came right out and said “I tried to make this villain resemble Trump”. It’s like, ok, I respect that. Because that’s what it seems like already. So at least be out with it, and give them all Trump hair and a giant red “R” on their clothes or whatever I don’t think this “white men bad” manipulation will actually work, but it seems to be more noticeable now. So remove the subtlety if that truly is the goal. Make the next villain have Mitch McConnell’s face or whatever. I’m sure this can be done with AI [You must be logged in to view images.
