They KKK are still Leftists, even if Democrats currently and publicly denounce them. They can't get that POC vote if they admit they're still racists. Your post on liberal racism seems to be on the right track, but there's more to it.
I'm wondering what made you think conservatives in general are hateful, and obvious about it, when that actually applies to liberals. When they don't use the "is because" argument, they just outright say they hate white people, straight people, and/or men. In addition to that, they'll also hate on POCs and LGBTs that don't go with their narrative, and will even use slurs, despite pretending to champion for them because in the end, they're still the racist bigots they were centuries ago. They're just more "strategic" about it, sometimes.
Is this a joke? Did you forget to put an /s at the end?
How are conservatives “in your face”? And while I won’t deny liberals can be strategic with their hate, how can you say they weren’t very “in your face” with their clear hatred of straight white people? Or calling anyone they don’t agree with every “-ist” in the book?
lol nope, they don’t have the budget or the talent to pull it off. I’d rather Rocksteady make a Batman Beyond video game, and let the Arrowverse die.
I wouldn't call it a masterpiece, but I enjoyed it and still do, enough to buy the extended edition which I also liked. It was revolutionary in terms of mo-cap technology, so it deserves credit for that as many people use it now, especially in video games. Watching it in IMAX 3D was certainly an experience that can't be replicated or substituted on a TV, but the movie itself is still good enough for me that I can watch it again without it.
It's not original in terms of the plot, but practically every type of story has been done to death anyway so it all comes down to whether people can tell the same story again in a way that's still fun, engaging, and exciting.
The first Avatar only had a few months of hype too when its first trailer dropped, and it became the highest grossing film of all time when unadjusted for inflation. We'll see if James Cameron's name still holds weight, but something tells me this movie will be similar. Maybe not $2.8 billion similar, but close enough.
I kinda have to agree. His first movie gets a pass because it's his origin story. But after everything he's been through, after essentially leading the charge against Thanos, he's STILL NOT the Sorcerer Supreme? And he's somehow less knowledgeable about the multiverse and dream-walking than Wanda and Chavez? He seemed to be in-the-know in Thor Ragnarok and the Avengers movies, but here he was clueless about a lot of things. Even in Spider-Man: No Way Home, he had a mentor vibe about him, though he was still reckless with his memory spell and it's embarrassing that practically every fan came up with a less dangerous and viable solution for Peter's secret identity issue, and while I think he was holding back in his fight with Peter, he still lost and was taken out of commission for a while.
I feel like Strange has been getting screwed over since Endgame and I wish they just let him be Sorcerer Supreme now, he's earned it. While I really liked how they did Wanda in this movie, it's suspicious that she can be awesome and scary in Dr Strange's movie yet they can't let Strange show up to try and help her in WandaVision. If being Sorcerer Supreme makes him too powerful and unrelatable, then introduce another character to act as the audience's stand-in, someone more likable and popular than America Chavez. But if someone as powerful as Thor or Superman can work as main characters, than so can Dr Strange as SS. They just need to hire better writers willing to put in the effort.
I personally liked Alien 3, both versions, despite its glaring issues, especially at the beginning, and I still think it broke the rules of the first two Alien movies while Terminator 2 did not.
Whether or not more people liked T2 over Alien 3, the T-1000 going back in time doesn't bother people as much because there are plausible explanations for it. Whatever logic they used for the T-1000, they used again for the T-X, thus keeping with consistency.
There's no plausible explanation for the alien queen laying an egg without her sac, or any justification for writing the anticlimactic deaths of Newt and Hicks during the opening credits after everything Ripley went through in Aliens.
It's not that hard to infer that the mimetic pollyalloy can mimic the properties living tissue, including the field it generates, just enough to fool the time machine, hence why the T-1000 and the T-X arrived in their human disguises instead of transforming afterwards.
Because of that, advanced terminator models like the T-1000 and T-X could bring their own built-in weapons while hiding under their mimetic skin, where as older models and humans had to find weapons once they arrived.
That’s not the same thing.
Time travel was already established in Terminator, so T2 was following the rules set by T1.
Alien 3 was not following the rules of Aliens, which was that the alien queen needed her sac to lay eggs.
If they’re gonna continue this series, it’s gonna need major improvement because season 1 was very mediocre. Oscar Isaac was one of the few things about it. Moon Knight’s costumes looked pretty good, but seeing Mr Knight used as a wannabe Deadpool gag was lame. I’d rather they saved that outfit for later. And he was barely in the Moon Knight outfit throughout the 6 episodes. It’s called “Moon Knight” and he was barely Moon Knight.
The action wasn’t that good, the plot wasn’t interesting, and the humor fell flat most of the time. Episode 5 wasn’t too bad though, the flashback was pretty powerful. I also liked the opening music in episode 3, but otherwise, the bad far outweighs the good.
lol I completely forgot about her 😂
I don’t know, buddy, that gymnastic kick with the raptor was pretty cringe.
lol nope, the "trumptards" <b>still</b> haven't shit on Halloween, or the first two Alien movies, or the first two Terminator movies, or Buffy the Vampire Slayer, or Xena: Warrior Princess, or practically any female-centric story before 2015 when wokeness took off. Even then, they also liked post-2015 movies like Wonder Woman and Alita: Battle Angel, as well as any anime with a female lead, because those weren't woke.
The "blue-haired libtards" keep trying to claim classic works for themselves and it's never worked.
Good, I don't want them to get the wrong idea from No Way Home's success. I'd rather they focus more on the story than cameos.
I'm more concerned on whether they're gonna be woke and ruin Doctor Strange in order to prop up Wanda and America Chavez. People already like Wanda; as for Chavez, who nobody cares for, as long as she's not insufferable, people will tolerate her for the movie's sake.
I didn’t mind the kids from the first movie, they served a purpose with Alan’s character and had wholesome moments.
I didn’t care one way or another for the boy in JP 3, but I found the kids in JP 4 annoying, especially the horny older brother.
I would've mentioned the kids from JP 3 and 4 but I was running out of character limit. I didn't care for them, but at least the kid in 3 wasn't as annoying. He was, however, a weak reason for having another film. Like seriously, they couldn't have thought up another reason to revisit the island? The other films at least kept the focus on the dinosaurs and the impact they could have on the world, even JP 5's mini extinction event had great potential. In fact, the entire second half of JP 5 should've just been JP 6, that would've made it much better.
But like I said, once JP 3's antics got started, I enjoyed it. It wasn't good, but it wasn't boring. And I think it had memorable action scenes: T-Rex vs Spino, the first scene with the raptors, and the pteranodons. As for the talking raptor, turns out it had meme potential, and as we've seen with the Star Wars prequels and Spider-Man 3, memes can save a movie. I didn't mind the raptor flute either, just like I didn't mind JP 4's trained bloodhound raptors. That's just the writers fanboying over raptors, and who can blame them? Movie raptors are cool.
It's honestly a boring movie. It has its good moments, particularly with the raptors and the scene with with the buses at the cliff, but otherwise it's a droll of a film. However, it's actually the second worst in the series.
Jurassic Park 3 isn't that good but at least it wasn't trying to be anything more than what it was; the spinosaurus was a nice change of pace from the T-Rex and it has a cool design; the pteranodons were cool; the raptors steal the scene again, this time with a cool black design; and it's the shortest movie in the series, good news for anyone that can't tolerate mediocrity for long.
Jurassic World was overall better than JP 3 and it was nice finally seeing a fully functioning park that was popular around the world; Chris Pratt was surprisingly cool as a serious character; Bryce Dallas Howard is sexy, although I didn't care for her haircut; bloodhound raptors were cool; and the 3-way fight at the end was pretty epic, even though I didn't care for the Indominus.
Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom has the honor of worst movie since it felt super contrived and had nothing really going for it, like JP 3 only much worse. The first half where they were getting the dinosaurs off the island was alright, but after that with the mansion, the cloned girl twist, and the lame super-raptor was just bad. But we got more Bryce Dallas Howard, who got thiccer since the last movie.
I think Jurassic World: Dominion will be a solid movie. Seeing the dinosaurs living among the rest of the world is an intriguing concept and I can't wait to see it, Lost World had the right idea with that. We get to finally see the giganotasaurus, though design-wise it's not that different from a T-Rex and therefore not as unique as the spinosaurus. More Bryce is a good thing; Chris Pratt will continue to entertain; and it's nice to see the original trio again, it looks like they'll actually share screen time together again as well as with the main cast, something the Star Wars sequels failed to do.
lol why not just refer to them as “the kids”? Most of the cast is white.
The black girl, on the other hand…
Wonder Woman and Alita Battle Angel came out not that long ago, starring female characters that physically outperformed many if not all of the men thanks to their powers, and guess who liked them? Right wingers, centrists, and moderate leftists. Guessed who hated them? Radical leftist SJWs. Guess which movie the latter people preferred? Captain Marvel.
If Aliens came out today, with no changes, radical leftist SJWs would still hate it, while everyone else would still love it.
Because Robin is the OG sidekick, and the most popular one. The Arkham games and even the terrible Titans series showed that Robin can work in a gritty setting.
It’s not that far-fetched. Dooku and Palpatine had been working together for a while by the time Attack of the Clones started, and neither of them wanted the Jedi or the Republic to find out about a shady cloning facility until it was too late. Dooku was a renowned Jedi master and therefore had access to the Jedi archives.
As for why Obi-Wan didn’t bother checking other libraries as others have suggested, I agree, that was sloppy writing. Lucas could’ve easily covered that by explaining that Dooku wiped the records from a bunch of places. He can use force-suggestion, and there aren’t a lot of species that are naturally resistant to the force.
As for why the Jedi seemed incompetent, it was explained that their ability to use the force isn’t as strong as it used to be, Palpatine was clouding their vision. On top of that, times of peace had made the Jedi complacent, maybe even arrogant, and therefore weren’t doing their job as well as they should have. That’s one reason why Dooku left them and why Qui-Gon was starting to have a falling out with them.
