That movie has emerged. It’s time to redpill your children. It’s time to take them to see The Angry Birds Movie."

That sounds like a song from a Richard O'Brien production. And I'd watch the hell out of a Richard O'Brien movie about a camp neo-Nazi film studio.

Davis Aurini fun fact: the blog entry he wrote immediately prior to his Ghostbusters one is a personal essay about how he struggles with depression and how he has come close to suicide many times. Four days later he wrote that stupid thing where he diagnosed Paul Feig with made-up mental problems while explaining where true masculine power comes from.

http://www.staresattheworld.com/2016/05/on-depression/

Also he has a police record because he hit his girlfriend, and then got away with it because he told the court she had bipolar disorder. So I mean he's funny and everything but also legitimate scum beyond being dumb.

Doug you ignorant piece of poo poo, you loving know what type of people lap that up. Are you trying to appaeal to the internet nazis? Is my usual kneejerk reactionto every dumb thing out his mouth. Thankfully he pretty much points out that it's racist and is a systemic thing.

"these movies have adaptions with white actor and they haven't been criticized" Shows poo poo adaptions of these things that have next to no understanding of the source material. But straight up admits that whitewashing is simply unacceptable. I do take contentions with him using lazy libertarian establishment South Park as a strawman for using minorities in roles of minority characters.

Overall he seems to be all for it, so I can't call him a racist prick, or a colorblind racist, so gold star for you Doug. You managed to actually not take the South Park middle ground like lgbt people shouldn't push for rights or thag anti smokers are as bad as smokers.

I do find the tone-deafness of Hollywood to be a source of entertainment sometimes. Executives just don't have a clue. Like the kerfuffle over Scarlet Johansson being cast in the Ghost in the Shell movie. There was an (rightly so) outcry over white washing and they responded by saying they can use digital effects to make her look more Asian. It's both really funny and incredibly sad.

Time to kick off the Doctor Who Book Guide proper with the first book of the Virgin New Adventures, "Timewyrm: Genesys" by John Peel. It's got Gilgamesh, neanderthals, robot snake ladies and, um, the Doctor chastising Ace when she expresses her desire not to be sexually molested. Yeah, the series kind of starts off on a gross note.

I can't believe these Doctors may control the fate of the Middle East.

Seriously, though, this made what was probably a dull book seem pretty interesting, in all the wrong ways. Usually the "broaden your mind" thing is "try alien food" or "sexism is wrong", not "this gross creeper isn't so gross if you think about it". Amazing.

Some of his blog posts are genuinely disturbing ala Roger Elliot and not just hateful garbage.

Ooh exciting, is there one like that? So far I've only found SIN CITY, which is ridiculous, and UNINVITED which is this downright offensive (yes, more than usual!) tract about some awful woman in a hospice berating people dying of AIDS. Wanna guess when that tract was made? 1986? Nope! 2011. Guess nobody told Jack about the medication that's now available.

Oh wait, SIN CITY is probably the one you're thinking of, where the poor christian gets bashed up by the evil gays and then charged with a hate crime and then there's a gay priest who looks like Recent Boy George and so on and so on.

There's also The Last Generation, which isn't strictly gay gestapo, but the gestapo are gay and they come for you if you're straight and haven't been divorced. Also pagan and Catholic because America is ruled by a filthy Irish-descended papist who makes Christianity illegal somehow. It's like a greatest hits album for him.

There's also a series of them about this disturbed little girl named Lil' Suzy who is taken in by her weird eyepatch grandpa after her mother dies and her dad runs away, and she's really got it out for adulterers and gays, and muslims, much to the chagrin of liberated woman teacher who's always trying to explain that human rights are for everyone.

It's the best vodka I've ever tasted. In other words, drink it with coke or something else to drown out the terrible taste that all vodka always has because it's poison!

Fun production fact: The vodka was a gift. Neither the buyer nor myself knew the Ghostbusters connection until people had pointed it out after the video went live. It's an amazing, wonderful coincidence and I have no clue how it happened or how I didn't realise it. It's such a good reference that the fact I didn't actually think of it is going to haunt me forever!
