ghost kitchens with celebrity branding were popping up all over during the beginning of the pandemic. the disturbing part was that his burgers were McDonald's tier at best

America is 0.8% chinese-american and 6% asian-american and considering hollywood's incredible racial bias it might not be entirely the academy award's fault

edit: and going back in time america is less and less asian

the pilot itself is interesting when you consider that it's trying desperately to differentiate itself from the simpsons by basically saying "what if Homer being an absolute piece of poo poo gently caress-up had real consequences?"

I'm sure a lot of it is going to be awkward but I'll ride that bus for a bit.

oh: also re-watching Daria

iirc some weirdo once did the math on twitter and the only significantly underrepresented minority in getting academy awards, if their population demographs are factored into it, are Latinos.

Every other visible minority (that the author used in their metrics, anyway), was either overrepresented in awards or fairly close to parity.

That's true as well. Hollywood loves Latin folks behind the camera but seldom in front. Only the palest passing folks generally get work, after a name change, with few exceptions.

hell yeah dude i was just thinking fondly of the shot on video works of Todd Jason Cook earlier and found that youtube's got his first feature Demon Dolls (1993) and his anthology film Horrorscope (1994) (warning: i think one or both of them have boobs)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UxeZMgFEayM

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w3xtYYBH928

a while ago i binged a bunch of Todd Jason Cook's horror movies and man this dude never learns what a plot is, it's actually kind of remarkable. like if you watch something from the Polonia Brothers or Chester Novell Turner you can mostly follow whats happening, every aspect is incompetent but you get the idea that these people have seen a movie and know the nuts and bolts of how they work. in Cook's movies one scene barely feels like it should follow another, things seem to happen without motivation, insane poo poo happens and then is quickly forgotten, everything has a dreamlike cadence - and while that would be frustrating with a real movie, its that extra little piquancy that elevates Cook's works to something interesting.

Ty for these I'll put them on my pile to watch!
