Because it never leaves its bedroom, no one has ever seen this poster's real face.
continually baffled as to what the gently caress straight people think a twink is

it's like if we jokingly used the word "frotting" to describe a picture of two guys hugging with their hips too close together and now five years later everybody is using the word frot to describe any frontal contact between two males. it's close but horribly, almost offensively wrong. this must end.

I feel that hasn't been a thing since the pre-80's and when actors quit the business now it's mostly due to them just being tired with all the poo poo.

master of disguise or league of extraordinery gentlemen maybe? carvey hasn't done anything since and the guy that was originally supposed to play aragorn probably got shitcanned from being in league

The Harkonnens also fire a laser at Duncan's clearly-shielded ornithopter. Based on what we see, there does not appear to be any adverse relation at all between shields and lasers in the movies.

Some video or post I saw claimed that the shields on the ornithopter clearly got knocked out by the first missile they shot at him. That's not at all what it looked like to me. But I guess it could be an in film explanation

I appreciated the audience reactions in the screenings I've been to. a guy near the front row in my opening weekend viewing reacted to several moments in the final movement with "oh-ho-ho-hoooo"'s and "god drat!!"'s. in my next one the guy next to me leaned forward and made the tim and eric mind blown gesture when atj showed up lol. this second guy was on his phone for the half the movie though so when the credits rolled I was forced to behead him

Old Town Road to EGOT

Just watched Wonka because it showed up on Max. It looked absolutely dreadful from the trailers, so I didn't bother seeing it in theaters, but then I heard a bunch of people praising it for being charming which really confused me. I figured I'd try to go in with an open mind, though.

Turns out my reaction to the trailers was right. It sucked, and wasn't even charming like I'd heard. I'm sure there were worse movies that came out last year, but this one was painfully dull. The only memorable scene was at the end when Wonka and his friend nearly get drowned with chocolate and it looks like they're drowning in poo poo.
