That wasn't the moral at all. Certain people make it out but most don't. It's a lot about the failures of the war on drugs and America's neglect of the working-class poor. Also neglect of just the poor in general and the struggling inner-cities.
Good thing he lost because him and his administration handled coronavirus as bad as humanly possible. The documentary is also pretty fair to him.
lol no. The other girls were Barbies. Paige was a goth/rocker type chick.
Do you know what its like to be a wrestling fan? Even if you can predict who will win or are told who will win you can still find the matches exciting. Now imagine you're a "wrestling family" and watching your 18 year old daughter make it to the WWE to have their match on Monday Night Raw the night after Wrestlemania. That would be THRILLING! Even if they know who will win. Its also a sport where people have been paralyzed or severely injured. So you're hoping the match goes just as you'd dream it. I took it as they weren't told who would win but either way those emotions would still be genuine.
All year, any day.
You can definitely train a kid to possess that kind of skill. You'd obviously be surprised to see what kids out there are capable of. The part with the chicken was a little cringe because of the poor CGI but the scene had its purpose. It was to show her determination and hard work. Her father was telling her to forget about it but she wouldn't. How many kids will keep going to those lengths to catch the chicken. It was a challenge and she enjoyed it. Also, it showed how just everyday stuff led to her developing or refining other skills. Similar to how when Rocky is being trained and part of his training is having to catch a chicken.
2 hours? where the heck did you pull that number out of? She was being trained as a child bozo. For years of her life she dedicated to it.
Wow you are dumb loll
Thank you for solidifying that you're a complete ignoramus.
Uh exactly my point. Its just a bad movie so its not relevant at all.
You couldn't have seen the movie because the father wasn't old and cripple when he was training her. Nope, you're lost.
I've never seen Genisys because I lose interest when they keep making sequels. So you hate it solely because of a "Mary Sue" type character or just that its a bad movie?
I don't need people to try to influence the way I feel. I saw the movie and know how I feel about it. I don't need someone to try to change my mind into not liking and enjoying something. That's just dumb.
Disney has made some of their best movies ever in recent years, like Coco. Your brains just a peanut.
I have no idea how you feel this ruins the original animated movie.
Do you think "these people" would spend nearly as much time spewing toxic negativity about a film if it was a male lead? I'll answer, no they wouldn't.
You're a boomer who can't stand strong female leads. It matters a lot when the movie is "Mulan" vs "The Terminator" or "Alien" or some random James Bond movie.
I've seen them all btw but its been a while since I've seen that particular one. To me I don't get hung up on "Omg that girl is too strong! this is SJW!" I like the movie or I don't. I listened to the problems people felt they had with this movie and see its all bs. Most of the people I don't think even watched it, or almost all of them prejudged it as "SJW"
Who's Tracy? From the James Bond movie? I don't really care to go watch James Bond right now. Its funny that your examples are all movies from 60s-80s though. And movies where its not the lead character, other than Alien I suppose.
Stick to the original thats fine. This movie isn't trying to copycat everything about the original, nor is it trying to replace it. This is a different telling of the ballad of Mulan.
Superhero? No. Special powers? No. More skills through years of training by a great skilled former soldier (her father)? Yes. That wasn't anything given to her. You missed where she dedicated all her time to training. If you don't think thats hardwork and determination then you might need your head checked.
I prefer the original animated too. But the gripes over "superhero" "special powers" "didn't work hard" are untrue and invalid.
Ok boomer.
