there was a (literally) strong female character introduced so naturally it was time to dissect how unrealistic she was

The HD remaster will include re-worked fight scenes using real life military tactics. Please look forward to Ewok weddings being firebombed or force lightning being used on residential districts for "illumination purposes".

They showed that Mando could sneak into the camp so he could have just gotten in quietly and tossed a bomb into the mech while it was “asleep”, but then we wouldn’t have had the scene with the palisades and Gina Carano using the pulse rifle so I don’t mind that overall

i think part of it is a lot of tviv goons do not really internalize that TV isn't real so when anything ever kind of bucks up and wakes them up to that it is very unpleasant to them

I mean it really shifts around. Sometimes they ignore whatever for the sake of the show, sometimes they search for problems to then talk poo poo on it because of arbitrarily made up principles.

Following the game of thrones thread during the finale was an intense experience.

genuine question, i absolutely have not been able to handle talking about any part of grrm's wretched work with goons ever in my life, did anyone ever at any point bring up the racism

Goons Are Gifts
Jan 1, 1970

The white/non-white ratio was briefly mentioned by some goon in GBS when that thread was still going and for a short period the TVIV thread devolved into rambling about sexism because of the female inability to rule without a strong man by her side, but apart from that it more or less exclusively moved around the terrible writing, idiotic mistakes and questionable lines and developments, plus some fanatic goons defending the show and its quality to the very end.

It's almost quaint how Tablet Magazine purports to be Jewish mag that covers the important topics but generally goes for headlines that suggest anti-Semitic bigotry is frivolous.

But speaking as someone who isn't Jewish but rather loving hates anti-Semitism, I hate Tablet Magazine for its lack of editorial standards.

tbh 14 g is enough to get a lithuanian basketball team stoned, it that is per person per day then who cares - it’s like legally limiting your daily candle budget to 300 dollars
