does the muppet 2015 reboot with explicit sex jokes also have a content warning or is everyone just doing their best to pretend that never happened

Exploration is ill-advised.
That movie is worth it just to hear Kermit's pronunciation of 'gulag'. Also the songs are great.

one year on and the HBO watchmen trigger warning is a real thing

it was originally written as a "parody" of what liberals would do rather than address systemic issues but i guess parodies are just instruction manuals now

I can't wait until this somehow hits a peak and then in twenty years there are clickbait articles titled "REMEMBER WHEN NBC PUT A SENSITIVITY WARNING IN FRONT OF EVERY SPONGE BOB EPISODE???"

Someone plz tell me what's good to watch apart from allegedly DS9

Tv over the last decade: the two morgan written xfiles episodes in the latest seasons, what we do in the shadows, expanse, the boys, magicians (maybe not final season, I didn't bother); ive heard good things about warrior and banshee
Scifi if you haven't somehow seen it : original prisoner, bab5, farscape, red dwarf, bsg

Long movies: twin peaks season 3

That's about it. Maybe leftovers which I didn't get into but had promise. Literally every other show is will the mystery we dragged out for 4 years pay off???? Answer : nope, should have been a two hour movie (looking at you Mr robot)


For the most part tv is a fool's errand if you want to veg out (no subtitles) to something enjoyable; you should be watching great movies that came out in the last decade made on shoestring budgets. For example a dozen scott adkins movies, michael jae white has a bunch, the list goes on. Unfortunately, the moving image is actually important in these unlike most tv shows , so you can't just stare at your phone and listen half heartedly

I've been watching The Terror on Hulu. It's pretty good if you're interested in a supernatural Antarctic horror expedition story

I actually enjoyed the book quite a bit too even though Dan Simmons is a chud and the book has next-level creepy writing when it comes to the teenage Inuit girl on the ship. I also just reread and enjoyed The Shining so I guess I just like books about people stuck in snowy places

The expanse is a failure of a show because it is prejudiced against short men and refused to cast them in the one show where it would make perfect sense

taking a minute to appreciate the bi erasure in brokeback mountain a movie where the allegedly gay cowboys clearly enjoy loving women

hell technically speaking theyre not really cowboys either theyre shepherds so much subtext that completely went over the heads of dumbass liberals who dont understand rodeo culture despite it being an explicit plot point that was deliberately contextualized

When a tree grows, it is soft and pliable. But when it's dry and hard, it dies.

Hardness and strength are death's companions. Flexibility and softness are the embodiment of life.

That which has become hard shall not triumph.
