It's the only movie I can think of with a bald woman as the star. If you had to make fun of Jada Pinkett I guess it's the one reference that old white dudes in the academy would understand.

(Although I have recently learned on Twitter that she is a dude!)

alexandriao posted:Luckily, now the door is open. Will Smith shoved the door open and hopefully we shall see a lot more comedians getting beat the poo poo out of for stuff they were previously immune to. At the very least, even if that doesn't happen, the fact is it has, and could happen again. That also means something.  I don't even know how to respond to something like this. If you think it's OK to hit people that hurt your feelings then you have the mentality of an undisciplined toddler. I'm not against using violence to defend yourself and those you love from violence or threats, but it was a lovely joke at an award ceremony. And yes, I think a public apology would have been sufficient if Smith hadn't smacked him. No one would have even remembered that joke if he didn't assault another human being over it. Bringing up nazis and Trump to compare to this situation is odd to say the least.

It’s ok to hit someone that’s being physical with you. It’s ok to hit someone who is inciting violence against others. It’s not ok to hit someone because they told a joke you don’t like.

christmas boots posted:Alternatively the conditions for life are just incredibly improbable and those exact circumstances just never came up anywhere else (or at least in the part of the universe we are able to observe) People in popular culture grossly underestimate how huge and inhospitable space is. Even if an alien culture could theoretically build a spaceship capable of traversing interstellar distances, it would be a huge flaming hole into which economic resources and alien lives would be shoveled for no gain. If they exist, they are probably just as bound to their own planets as we are to ours.

yeah i think more than anything the distance to other stars can't be crossed for economic and practical reasons, it's probably not technically impossible but would require a huge concentrated effort for no real gain so it never happens

Robobot posted:
Let me say this very clearly. Making fun of disabilities, including medical conditions, deserves violence. Because the only end result of those jokes, societally, is violence against disabled people. It needs to be made clear concretely that these jokes are not ok. That treating disabled people as subhuman at large, is not ok. This goes for any margnialised community. I don't care how small this poo poo is. How sleight. The sheer lack of concern for disabled people among the general public stems from these jokes, in part. The hate crime noticably statistically goes up when people say this poo poo. It needs to be shut down asap and at the earliest source. My comparison earlier was serious, because the difference in action of people -- of society and a handful of systems, to go from "marginalised people being generally treated like poo poo", to "actively being beaten to deal" and eventually "stuffed into a gas chamber", is actually almost no difference at all. Its a very short hop and a skip and a jump to tolerating each, and it all starts at the root of it with slightly lovely jokes that say "It's acceptable to degrade this group of people". I don't give a poo poo what you think is acceptable or kind when I see the direct impact on my friends from this bullshit. When another one of my friends loving hangs themselves because of this bullshit. Or gets the loving life beaten out of them. I'm exhausted, every marginalised person who is even remotely plugged into any kind of support network, is beyond exhaustion, and after the last 40 years? of seeing the various hate crime rates rise to almost 200 times each decade? After countless cherished friends, loving gone forever? loving lol. If all anyone is doing is a small child sized slap on stage then you are loving lucky. Just because you don't care to see the blood doesn't mean it isn't there. gently caress off with this condescending bullshit. alexandriao has a new favorite as of 20:55 on Apr 1, 2022 |

But enough about your life/posting. I'm sorry that you are going through all that alexandriao, keep safe! I think that there should be different standards for what we consider "good" films. I'd say that something like Casablanca can't really be compared to something like Mad Max Fury road because they are both telling such different stories, but in a way that creates a very similar appreciation for their perfection.

Even better than actualized violence is the implicit threat of violence conveyed through mannerisms, micro expressions, skull T-shirts, etc.
