The exact places it challenges the current sitcom establishment.

Edit: It's a great episode, definitely in my top 20. But what exactly is it trying to say? It parodies itself, it parodies what would ever be acceptable on weekly network TV. It parodies the sancitity of funeral, and bad stand-up comedy.

It is amazing, but I'm still like, "what are you trying to say, exactly, also thanks for being hella funny."

Edit: This is season 4, episode 7 (Free Churro), it's on Netflix. People go watch it, it's weird and funny.

Maybe this will help.

In Finding Nemo when Marlon brings Nemo to his first day of fish school the other parents make mention of him living in an anemone, and Marlon replies off the cuff, "Shocking, I know".

Only took me 500 involuntary/forced viewings to catch that.

My Lovely Horse posted:

I love seeing Americans talk about how Tarantino paints the Nazis in the traditionally heroic way, cause for obvious reasons, in Germany there's no such tradition of portraying the clean-cut soldiers and brave lieutenants protecting their men as the heroes so to us they're just all Nazis. It's always a bit revealing about you guys' media and military movie culture.

That's very interesting to me. When my grandma was a kid, her family was forced to billet German soldiers as well as a Luftwaffe captain. That dude even had the Hitler mustache. I've seen the pictures. This was in Croatia. She was ethnic German (Donauschwaben) and didn't understand WWII at all. She never understood it even until her death last year. All she knew about German soldiers in WWII was that they were nice boys that stayed at her house when she was 12 years old.

I've never had beef with the standard German infantryman. They were just fighting for their country. It's the SS and the NAZI party members that matter. Heck, my grandfather was conscripted into the Arbeits Corp in Serbia when he was 16. He fled the country when the war was at the end and he was going to be shipped to the eastern front. He ended up in Austria in Lager Heid Ansfelden and then they moved to the state after my father was born.

It's complicated in America. We often have family members that fought on both sides but had to learn to get along at the end of it. The war is over, it's all cool now. A normal Wehrmacht soldier was just doing their job. They were just as cold, just as hungry, just a scared as the next guy. They get a pass.

Nazi's and SS sucked though. They will always suck.

Joking aside, they show Strange cutting off the brute's arm with a portal an hour earlier. It seems weird that he wouldn't have tried it.

Tony or Peter could have called it out since they saw it happen.
You'd have Thanos stranded on Titan while the gauntlet could be dropped in the Sanctum.

I've started just thinking it was the Power Stone that made it impossible to cut his arm off. It's easier than focusing on the weird plot situation that creates.

That makes me think, it actually kinda would have ruled if Thanos snapped his finger, the gauntlet splintered and gems burst and he dissolved, a faint smile on his face. Like okay if he took his little portal to his rice farm or whatever at least you could hypothetically go find him and beat him up. He dies and the gauntlet self destructs? That's it dude.

The Great Escape and Bridge on the River Kwai are the same movie made from American and British perspectives, respectively.

In the American movie only two people survive the prison camp and it's treated like a happy ending. In the British one all but two get out alive and well and it's a tragedy.

I think he sighs once he's on his little farm because like it all worked? I just think it would be really funny if he got Devil's Hands Are Idle Playthings-ed because 1) whoops and 2) these movies are entirely built around punching your problems and you can't do that if your problem turns into a little ash cloud.

Ghost Leviathan: Mar 2, 2017; Exploration is ill-advised.

Thanos was definitely okay with dying if his plan worked. Since he basically retires once it does and becomes a farmer and all.

The Django discussion about Schultz and Django oddly enough reminded me of a Daria episode, where Daria and black honour student Jodie pair up for a project that involves trying to get a loan from a bank (not actually going through with it of course) and Jodie ends up leaning on her father's reputation to succeed. Daria's pissed for a while because she sees that as compromising her integrity and they get in a fight over it, but Daria's mom reminds her that she holds everyone up to very high standards that she herself can't always meet, and Jodie's got a point in being pragmatic. Does make me wonder if there's a theme about black people being used to compromising and taking the simple solution to get through daily life while white people are taught that they should make a stand about things.
