Serf posted:on some level they made bane's plan to nuke the city because they couldn't have a kickass revolution that targeted only the rich without some reason its secretly evil, otherwise batman is just straight up the villain to most of the audience Its Black Panther syndrome where they have a villain with an actual good point so they have him randomly snap the neck of someone / shoot their girlfriend to establish that they are actually bad

I remember being 19 when that movie came out and being like Wait How is bane the bad guy he seems legit And now I agree that holding a major American city hostage with a nuclear device while you methodically exterminate the rich and their guardians, the police, is in fact the right thing to do

100 HOGS AGREE posted:The Secret has been around forever. I remember a weird teacher showing my whole class a video about that garbage when I was in High School. there's a scene in the movie where someone says they imagined recieving money and then suddenly mysterious checks started appearing in their mailbox. it's not symbolic or anything, the scene is meant to be taken literally as something that actually happens irl

The Dark Knight Rises is just an unironic adaptation of The Scarlet Pimpernel, which makes the superhero vigilante genre of stories come full circle.

Even if Her Maj was subtly insulting Trump in those ways, there's no chance he'd notice. This is not a chap with any subtlety in any capacity. Anything less plain than "I hate you" would be utterly lost on him.

I think it's because these microaggressions are sophisticated and "smart" which makes those that recognize them also sophisticated and "smart" like who the gently caress thinks the queen is picking her jewelry according to some story about a mistress of a king or whatever, it's ridiculous, but it's exactly the kind of factoid some guy/gal would drop in a west wing blabberfest while sneering at the person who just got burned hard, but doesn't know it because he's a dumb ape unlike the master historian of the british royal jewels, yasss queen

But it's also amazingly stupid.

Her uncle was famously pro-Nazi and she seems pretty aware that she's a total figurehead, she can politely smile at monsters in her sleep.
