I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

I kinda loved the tv show. It was good schlock

The dad was the chief of police tho

E: and in a completely shocking coincidence,the abusive dad's brother/uncle to the abused girl was the head of CPS, I guess Henry really did have no choice but to make his mom become a skilled assassin overnight, instead of snapping some pix and then anonymously sending them to the newspaper or TV station, or even just putting them on the Internet for all to see

It helps that the lead was a much more likable person than the movie version and had a lighter tone

watching Miami Vice (2006) because it's on hbomax. never saw it, heard people disliked it and I can see why.

however it's nice to vibe to. I like the grainy look and odd angles, I like when Colin Farrell randomly stares out the window at the sea mid-conversation and the camera shows it from his perspective. life has weird moments like that

2 Jokes Y Serious is going to be a mashup of Goodfellas and Shutter Island with Da Jokester living out his life as a mobster and then it's revealed Tony Fat Fingers and Vinnie The Club are actually his psychiatrists, and his wife Marie was Dr. Quinzel and she got a little too into the roleplaying therapy.

No, you pretty much nailed it. It's the "I'm a serious film" equivalent of dudes putting on a fedora and a really ill fitting suit and thinking they're Dapper 1960s man.

It's like you technically got all the pieces together, the melodramatic name actor, a societal issue, some kind of message, a dramatic score, all the things you know a SERIOUS film should have. But it's so sloppy and it doesn't fit and you don't even realize you look like a dumb rear end in a top hat.

I mean it's ok for a punchman movie. Solidly upper middle of the pack. But that's really not saying much. As a movie movie, it's pretty lame.

in the weeks before the movie came out every respectable news media claimed that the movie's conception and execution would tear apart the fabric of society. then they give it a bunch of awards cause it rips off older Hollywood films. this is funny to me.

Joker was such a sad sack in that movie, he wasn't going to inspire poo poo. I didn't care for Joker either, but Willem Dafoe said he'd do a sequel where he plays an imposter Joker vs Joaquin and yeah I'd watch the poo poo out of that.

the trick to stopping mass shootings is to predict them incessantly

Cannibal Llama sounds like it could be a zany intentional throwback to mid OOs Penguin of Doom tier usernames but it also sounds like it could be the name of the lamest possible Metal Gear Solid boss so please don't make fun of it.
So like, were all these news outlets supposedly claiming that the Joker would lead to mass shootings actually real or was it like maybe one talking head on twitter comparing the joker to mass shooters or what and then places like this thread ran with it and started a meme about " crazy liberal media claims the Joker will lead to shootings". Because I don't remember this moral panic at all. Seems more like a moral panic about a fake moral panic if you ask me SMH.
