Arc Hammer posted:Guns at Batasi? No, it seemed to be set earlier, like 1880-1910. I remember it was in full color and all the women and children were naked or wearing loincloths or something, which added to the horror. The British were wearing the heavy, red wool uniforms of the period. I was only 6 so there’s a distinct but unlikely possibility that I just imagined it.

Nigmaetcetera posted:When I was a kid I saw a movie that traumatized me where British soldiers forced African women and children down a cliff using Maxim guns. Anybody know what movie that might have been? I thought it might have been Zulu but the Wikipedia article on it didn’t mention this specific form of war crime. I’m asking this thread cause y’all are the movie smartest. That was a documentary

Can the harry potter experts in this thread confirm that dumbledore and mads aren't even gay together anymore because china. I feel like I heard it somewhere and it would be amusingly pathetic if so

they were never and still have never been gay in the films, it’s JK Rowling retcon bullshit to appear woke. unless I’ve blanked it from my brain, there’s been absolutely zero explicit text in the films about it

No Mods No Masters posted:Can the harry potter experts in this thread confirm that dumbledore and mads aren't even gay together anymore because china. I feel like I heard it somewhere and it would be amusingly pathetic if so It's not because China, it's never because China. You get these studios nowadays saying "Oh yeah we'd love to have all kinds of gay stuff, gay superheroes, gay kissing, gays in space, but that drat China won't let us " and imo you'd have to be pretty gullible to buy that. But yes, Dumbledore and Grindelwald aren't gay, they instead made a magical best friends promise when they were teens. I think the far more likely culprits would be people involved in the production being uneasy with showing a major canonically gay character in a wide audience franchise children's movie, or JKRowling herself realizing that it's not just the T in LGBT she's uncomfortable with.

And then people turned up multiple instances where she was described as white in the books and an actual drawing of white Hermione Rowling had done. It's like, drat if you really never thought of this character as specifically white then it's pretty clear what color you consider a default person to be.

She didn't say the thing about Jewish students either - someone asked her if there were any Jews at Hogwarts and she gave him the name Anthony Goldstein (Ravenclaw). It's why the joke has her giving the Hispanic student such a steorotypical name.
