I'd prefer just to ignore them (both in real life and online) and let them scream at the sky like the nutjobs they truly are.
It's true, you can't fix stupid.
Hehehe >:) I know, right?
Not really, but they sure do make it look like a combination of a circus and a freak show. Plus, it was nice to find out that celebrity endorsements don't count for anything if nobody likes the candidate.
But you're a Viking! One reason we Viking women love our men is because they have a lot to give and never lose sight of that ;)
Ugh! It's just a digital clubhouse full of freaky, mentally ill, overgrown kids who can't face reality. And frankly, I hope they stay in that digital cesspool and never leave.
I loved the cop and the waitress in that movie. They were so sweet together. :)
Only reason I can't watch that movie too often is because Rosie Perez drives me nuts, but her character <i>did</i> get what was coming to her at the end of the movie.
You're welcome. The Dune franchise and the lore is fascinating to read about if you like complex sci-fi writing. Brian Herbert took up where his dad left off and wrote backstories to the series his dad originally wrote, so we'd get an idea of how humanity got to where they were by Paul's time, and frankly, it's a very rich, unique universe to learn about. There is <i>so much</i> material both Brian and Frank wrote that could be made into Dune movies if the people in Hollywood can get past doing the main Paul stories.
So instead of infecting America with a virus, selling it as the Black Plague 2.0 through lies and scaremongering, and blaming Trump for everything the STATES did to mismanage containing this virus; he's instead gonna start nuclear war and blame Trump for it? That's weapons-grade lunacy!
I like her in the "Harry Potter" movies, but that's it.
The movie only earned that big flash of money due to nostalgia. People forgot about it just 4 months later after it came out on dvd and streaming (and that was 7 years ago). So keep in mind that this is <i>all</i> the money it will ever earn; because the classic cartoon still makes money from people still watching it and buying memorabilia from it, even to this day after 33 years, and it's probably outgrossed the live-action one several times over already.
Believe it or not, it's not the genre that's bad; it's the writing that determines its quality. Fantasy films with good scripts do very well, particularly if there's at least <i>some</i> kind of explanation as to where the magic comes from, and what kind of rules of magic are included in that world.
What you're talking about are cheap, crappy, low-fantasy tv movies that have second-rate stories with lazy plot devices put in.
Yeah, Captain Marvel is a sore spot for many comic book movie fans, particularly the bitch who plays her. Sadly, she's the poster child for everything that's gone wrong in Phase 4 of the MCU. Phases 1-3 were better because they were better written and didn't rely heavily on the stupid "girl boss" trope.
Just keep in mind that the superhero genre is kept separate from sci-fi and fantasy, just like the disaster film genre is often kept separate from the science fiction genre.
Oh that poor man. Hundreds of dollars of wine, lost.
On the other hand, the comments below are great ;)
Only reason anything happened in that live-action film was because the script demanded it, not because the people in it could sell the story with their acting abilities (of which nearly the entire cast was in short supply).
Part of the reason Belle had stopped whining about being a prisoner in the cartoon was because she was so well-treated that she'd almost forgotten she was one to start with. That, and she was an honorable woman who stood by her promises with most people, unlike bratty, immature Emma, who would lie at the drop of a hat and try climbing out a castle window the first chance she got.
Pretty damned sad when a cartoon character can show better emotions than a second-rate actor.
Yeah, that's one thing that really bothered me about the "Body Positivity" movement. The original idea behind it was to help build confidence in women not built like Barbie dolls, as well as providing more fashion options for them. But part of that movement also started with the idea of helping them build confidence, <i>as they were choosing a healthier lifestyle and losing weight.</i> It takes time to lose weight if you do it responsibly and in a way that doesn't hurt your body, so you gotta find a way to live with yourself during the transition phase, which can take up to 2 years for some people.
Almost immediately the movement was hijacked by toxic women that wanted to stay fat and get away with everything they did to become that way, including not being forced to make healthier changes to their lives. They didn't want to take responsibility for their own health and be "accepted for the size they are," rather than push for self-improvement. It's about as destructive as having a drug addiction (or any addiction, really).
Yeah, even stupid people quit doing stuff like that after enough hospital visits, though sometimes it ends in death.
Gee, what's next? Snorting butane to get high? Nothing like destroying your own body to "spite" someone you don't like.
Crylo Ren <i>earned</i> that nickname. I don't even bother remembering the name of his red-haired butt boy. Phasma was incredibly lame and misused too.
The only people I feel sorry for more than Adam Driver are the Gen Z teenage girls that were stupid enough to fall for him and the "Reylo" shipping trend.
Hayden is a mixed bag, considering the dynamics his character went through from good to bad, though most of us Star Wars fans agree that he earned the name, "Whineakin Skywalker." Crylo Ren is even worse.
And yeah, everything about that "Battlefield Earth" film sucked, including John Revolta's character.
I would totally agree with you regarding Voldemort pre-Goblet of Fire. After that he turned into a true badass villain.
Jim Carrey was more fun as the Riddler, hehehe. Absolute psycho and funny as shit xD
