This is a metaphor, a Christian allegory. The fact that I have to explain to you that Jesus is the Warthog, and the Banana is drepanocytosis is just embarrassing for you.

I thought they did a great job laying out how Sony was amplifying the voices of a minor few internet trolls and trying to treat it like there was a massive backlash, when most people just didn't care at all.

I'm not saying there weren't sexist responses to the concept of an all-female Ghostbusters, but most sane people were just going "Eh, it looks bad, but not cause it's lady Ghostbusters."

verb the adjective noun

"I feel like when people watched Vader look back and forth, to the emporer... to Luke.... to the emporer ... then to Luke, and throw the emporer into the core, it sends a really mixed message about what he was feeling in that moment.

Now what... could he say... to signify that he doesn't like what's happening?" *Winnie the Pooh think-think-think motion*

It 'rhymes' with him saying it at the end of Episode 3 like 'cat' rhymes with 'cat'.

Watched Doctor Strange in Netflix. The visuals were cool but it was kinda boring. Not terrible but just kinda boring. I'm not familiar with the comic other than what i've read online about it, but i felt like with the sort of subject matter this movie was dealing with (the occult, the paranormal, secret societies, godlike entities, cults, cults using ritualistic magic to summon said godlike entities, etc), this could have and should have been a lot more fun and exciting. But it's just kinda of blah.

I like how he defeats the reality-eating space demon at the end by trapping himself in a time loop where he keeps getting killed again and again but the rest of the movie was pretty boring yeah

Since the Plinkett review came out, the people I saw fall for this have been very loudly and desperately pretending that they never fell for it and that they were ambiguous about the movie all along.

a lot of us are big movie nerds so we'd naturally go there. sometimes a thread will be cruising along fine with good discussion then smg comes in and lays a giant turd andw hen you call him out his dumb sycophants talk about how you're just some troglodyte who can only judge "movie bad" or "movie good". the get out thread is a great example of it and man his misreading of the film was especially bad even for him.

If nothing else, most people thought the gender swap was the smartest thing a cynical cash grab reboot could do to possibly divorce itself from having to be the exact same movie. Then they just made the exact same movie, only starring women, except that instead of good jokes they filmed apparently 5-10 hours of improv per scene and cut a "best of" series for each scene.

I don't. I haven't browsed CineD in years. There's a reason for that.

I think the only people left who regularly post in CD are people like SMG and MisterBibs who love jerking off into their own mouths and pretending they're visionary geniuses.

It's... a really, really weird place with opinions from a bizarro universe and on rare occasions when CD actually interacts with the outside world beyond their bubble, people are just like "what in the gently caress are you smoking" like the time when Jack from RLM pooped on MisterBibs
