From a few pages ago, but I'm absolutely staggered by "micro-cucked". Like Dennis Quaid is going to gently caress my wife with his tiny submarine. A partially permeable membrane that allows tiny penises through. It's incredible. Micro-cucked. What a world.

I wonder if it's because they've incorporated star wars into their identity so if a movie comes out that they think is bad, it makes them feel like they've been personally diminished by it.

I wonder if it's because they've incorporated star wars into their identity so if a movie comes out that they think is bad, it makes them feel like they've been personally diminished by it. It's because Star Wars was the perfect, most iconic movie in all moviedom, the platonic ideal of Movie. It even had a Perfect Trilogy in which to ensconce itself against other properties making similar claims like Indiana Jones and Terminator. Yes, they built it into the bedrock of their own personalities: I am the kind of person who, come hell or high water, will always enjoy watching Star Wars, can always fall back on the axiomatic greatness of Star Wars. And then along came this sequel which inverted some of the assumptions the first ones made and tore open the perfection of the package and made it open-ended and ambiguous. Sacrilege Also the prequels a) never existed b) don't count because they're by the original creator c) are also perfect somehow

The problem with making a Star Wars movie is that your work is going to be compared to the version of whatever movie someone saw when they were a small child and it was the most awesome thing ever.

garthoneeye posted:I believe where the idea of food as cultural appropriation comes from is white chefs making a name for themselves with food from other cultures, often without attributing or paying the people of that culture that taught them/gave them recipes. Well said - there’s the similar phenomenon where “the fetishization of women of nonwhite races by some white men is troubling and gross” sometimes gets telephone-gamed into “inter-racial dating is bad!”

I liked the last Jedi. It was a fun time when I saw it. Even the last one was ok even if I would have liked to see the story go in a different way. It had laser swords and space ships. Those are cool

Like I know the Plinkett reviews are problematic but they are 1000% more entertaining and watchable than the prequels, and I'll happily cue them up anytime instead Much like how no, I'm not going to actually sit down and watch The Room, but the Disaster Artist sure.

Vib Rib posted:Somehow this person is in the comments telling other people 1. to stop taking it so seriously, and 2. that "it felt like being assaulted". Presumably the defenders saw the prequels as children and fell in the kind of blind love with them in the way that older people did with the original trilogy. There are also presumably some children now falling in love with the third trilogy the same way.

Star Wars made Alec Guinness rich enough that he could play George Smiley on tv and not worry about it affecting his movie career, so it's got that going for it. But I have no idea who this Dave Handleman is, and I think I'm the better for not knowing.

Thanks to the staggered nature of the three trilogies, Star Wars has successfully broken three different generations of awkward men, which is pretty drat impressive if you think about it.

BrigadierSensible posted:One of the things about "cultural appropriation" that shits me the most is the food stuff. All those things would be appropriation or something along those lines. The original meaning of cultural appropriation is value-neutral. It's just describing the exchange of ideas that naturally happen when any two cultures meet. The thing is, the legacy of colonialism basically puts a giant thumb on the scale ensure that there can be no equal exchange as long as that system remains in any capacity. It's not that sometimes individuals are lovely and will steal ideas from other cultures, but on a macro scale the amount of power and influence certain cultures exert is so overwhelming that it makes it impossible for them not to fall into an exploitative role even when they try not to. It's good to be aware of the small things because those add up, but people tend to over-fixed on them as a way to deal with the frustration of being part of an unjust system you alone cannot change.

I thought we already knew it was just sexism that compelled people to defend the prequels over the new films? We all heard the unnecessary level of bitching over that lady with the colorful hair. Not to mention Rey the "Mary sue."

I don't think it's fair to deride every single person who didn't like the new movies as a sexist. I prefer the prequels because, while bad, they are fun. The new trilogy is just flat and boring from start to finish.

As someone who was once a little girl who wanted to play Star Wars in the backyard and was seriously hampered by the existence of one and only one girl character, and there's only so many times you can go "Leia has a lightsaber now because I said so," The Force Awakens was a transcendent experience. No one will ever take that from me.

The new trilogy is just flat and boring from start to finish. I mean, this isn't really what I was saying anyway. Plenty of people didn't "like" the new movies that much. But I'll just say, there's been a pretty consistent type of person who feels the prequels were suddenly so redeemable for reasons. But I guess I could see how the new movies are "flat and boring" compared to shoving as many lightsabers and loud colors onto one screen as possible. The prequels were after all targeted much more toward children.

While it's true not everyone hwho criticized the new trilogy is sexist, I'm guessing the guy who hops into a director's mentions apropos of nothing demanding he spend the rest of his life apologizing for making a movie he didn't like probably doesn't have the best view of women either.
