Jfc the wording in that "press release" is, uh, strong and frankly loving loony. It's like something you'd read in some chuds's Facebook rant. Now I don't know whether it's just some wacko's "press release" but if it isn't and that's actually some official police thing then hoo nelly there's no  big enough

Germany had a large Jewish population to begin with because they were one of the least lovely countries for Jews to live in.

Soul Dentist posted:France is just very far western Ukraine Yeah, the two share tendency for low approval of leaders (except in wartime, perhaps), love of protest, and bizarre dual-executive setups in government that don't seem to do much in practice most of the time.

The Vietnamese have been denied their Barbenheimer weekend due to a geopolitical dispute. In Barbie. https://twitter.com/Variety/status/1675811746257281024?t=9L5dUvaa5vhsrsbB4dwY1A&s=19 quote:Vietnam has banned commercial screenings of Greta Gerwig’s “Barbie" over a scene that depicts a map with the “nine dash line,” a representation of China’s territorial claims in the South China Sea, which Vietnam says violates its sovereignty.

But why the gently caress is Barbie poring over THAT map?  This movie might be much different than I expected.

I only saw one commercial, but isn't she (Barbie Oppenheimer) inventing nukes in order to cleanse the Earth? Why would she not be poring over a map of SE Asia?

Yeah doing a Barbie / Oppenheimer double feature just got a lot more interesting. Serious note, I have no real interest in "Barbie" but considering they got Robbie and Gosling for it and they are both almost always in really solid stuff it might be worth a look.

But potentially switch the plots with the same characters like that? Now we're fuckin talking, Ken needs to explain the Demon Core to me.

That Works posted:Yeah doing a Barbie / Oppenheimer double feature just got a lot more interesting. Yeah, I don't care about Barbie, but the whole premise is so patently absurd that it might just be good again. I don't remember the title of the Reese Witherspoon movie where she was basically a human Barbie but also a competent lawyer, yet that film wasn't bad. The combination of pink blond girl + genius is just cool somehow.

The Barbie movie is either going to be a pillar of cinematic brilliance so profound and striking that Orson Welles himself will rise from his grave to give one final standing ovation before returning to eternal slumber or it's going to be absolute garbage that causes Hollywood itself to write off the entire concept of "movies" as a fad that's finally fizzled out. There will be no in-between.

I mean one is an octagenarian trying to cash his last checks and the other is a set of good actors having fun with a silly script. I would also pick barbie out of those two.
