Snowglobe of Doom posted:Hot Nosferatu! On this topic, is Nosferatu in the public domain? Given that they dumped their Dracula movie from this shared continuity, using Nosferatu instead could be a way to bring a classic vampire into it. And pretty apt considering the origins of the character in relation to Dracula.

One of the replies to the Yahoo tweet is right, is Talladega Nights going to be 10 minutes long? And to all you conservative "think of children" types, Elysium is probably still going to be communist.

In Discworld, Igors are a race based on both Frankenstein's monster and Frankenstein's deformed assistant Eyegore. They modify their own bodies using surgery and spare parts from corpses, and as a result all of them are unnaturally tough and strong (and also good doctors/coroners), but while the men resemble Quasimodo the women are all extremely hot.

I wish assistant Fritz was better remembered. Ygor wasnt until Son of Frankenstein (which is still a great film)

Uhh I don't really have any skin in this game because I'm not latinx and have never been to Mexico, but my gf is from Zacatecas and read this post over my shoulder and just about lost her poo poo because in her experience "a significant minority" are white, the vast majority are mestizo and she maybe sees one or two black people every time she goes home You might be a little full of poo poo here is what I'm saying

LORD OF BOOTY posted:Uhh Well it depends on what region of Mexico you're visiting. People with white skin are found more often on the north of the country and areas where money is abundant (since they don't need to out in the field working their rear end off). Go to the south with the warmer climates and people with brown skin is the norm. Then you have to consider any big city is a melting pot of ethnicities. That said, your gf is right, you rarely see black people here.

Lotta people in this thread discovering that race is a nonsensical, subjective social construct. I'm interested in seeing the kid-friendly cut of Spider-Man, honestly. Superhero films are already hypersanitized violence, are they gonna remove violent scenes altogether? Is it okay to show a child a film about extrajudicial vigilante violence if you cut before every punch lands? Or are they just gonna remove the one swear word or something?

I would think a kid friendly Spider-Man movie would also be a morally responsible Spider-Man movie and not show any on screen violence that would realistically result in the loss of human life. To show sanitized violence without realistic consequence just breeds immoral apathy towards real world tragedies in more susceptible viewers, and if Sony was really being socially conscious, they would take that into consideration.

It looks like they're not re-editing the films themselves or replacing the original versions at all, they're just including the "airline version" edits in the extras package: quote:Sony Pictures Home Entertainment will announce today its “Clean Version” initiative, which “allows viewers to screen the broadcast or airline versions of select Sony films, free from certain mature content.” Rather than forcing consumers to choose whether to buy the original or “clean” cut of a given movie, Sony will instead make these “edited for content” versions available at no additional charge as one of the “extras” included with the theatrical version of the films that are part of the program, purchased on iTunes, VUDU, and FandangoNOW.

LORD OF BOOTY posted:Uhh Yeah I am full of poo poo. Sorry. The data I found seemed to claim most Meztitos as white and only the 100% native as being native at all. In a few decades when the Mexicans in the US have fully integrated they'll be as white as the Irish or the Italians. Then the scary non-white immigrants will be Saami or something.

Imagine the biggest change in the Spider-Man edit would probably cut out either the violent death of Norman and probably remove the scene of the people at the parade being turned into green skeletons. The later was always just so comical and out of place in the movie.

But because we care more about social status than race, many don't even know or care about what reace their ancestors were. (FYI I can pass for white brunette mexican, but next to a gringo or european I look brown as gently caress,heh.)

I'm an African naturalized American, and I'm black as hell. Do cops treat you worse when they see you? Then yes, you're black. That's the test. The actress has identified herself as black in the States because that's how people treat her, might as well get some solidarity from people dealing with the same poo poo.

I mean, I don't care if some guy thinks I'm black (I've been confused for everything else under the sun), but honestly how is that any more crazy than me saying Lupita's Mexican? Americans like to joke that Michael Jackson's not really black. I never found poo poo like that funny, but I did find MJ to be tragically American through and through. This country strips away and tries to shame it's people for their ancestry, mostly because of the mortal sin this country was founded on, the genocide of its native population and it's embrace of oppressive slavery in its founding years. Mexico had the same issue with it's abuse of it's native people, but when 90% of the population looks like the natives that were once systemically victimized, we could no longer use skin color as an excuse to force that kind of segregation upon ourselves. White Spaniards can't hide behind their skin color any more than the brown Mestizo. We're all Mexican.

When society decides to burden you with poo poo b/c of how they perceive your ethnicity, then I think you should have the right to join that ethnicity as race is a social construct, not one based on fact. You keep it bringing back to your experience, but your experience is not mine, and most especially, based off her comments, not Lupita's, so I don't even know why you're still arguing.

Shageletic posted:When society decides to burden you with poo poo b/c of how they perceive your ethnicity, then I think you should have the right to join that ethnicity as race is a social construct, not one based on fact. Exactly. Lupita is black skinned. We all have eyeballs. She chooses to identify herself as both Kenyan and Mexican. I quickly edited my one point where I said she was "Mexican" because it's more nuanced than that. She identifies as African Mexican, so therefore she is Mexican not just in my eyes, but in her own eyes as well. I'm Mexican American, but I'm still just "Mexican" when it comes to the majority of Americans. It really says something that these guys can post that speech from Lupita but ignore the words she's saying. Her speech was all about racial identity and the way this country shames those considered dark skinned or with features considered "other". It was about growing up in this western culture and struggling with our identity. When a minority actor goes out of their way to embrace their heritage, how can you in good conscience just cast that aside? It's clearly important to Lupita that people know she's both Kenyan and Mexican, why take that away by just saying "she's just black?" e: reminder if I didn't bring this up, the only "black woman" you'd all be talking about is Rosario Dawson (who's boriqua through and through). ruddiger fucked around with this message at 18:41 on Jun 7, 2017 |
