The film is disproportionately ethnic. Lancashire's only 9.2% Asian and 3.8% black in real life.
Disregarding the likelihood of a police officer being female and Asian, we can be pretty sure that that they wouldn't depict such a character as incompetent. That's reserved for white men.
In general, I don't like commenting on people's looks, but I do think she was miscast in Nosferatu. The role needed a real beauty for Orlok to become infatuated with, moving country and ultimately losing his life as a result, and Depp is simply not attractive enough. In fact, I find her looks off-putting.
Anderson will manage to make it overly mannered, over-long and dull in some way. It's his trademark. I had a lot of hope for him after the Grand Budapest Hotel, but then he reverted to type.
Why not add to one of the many existing threads instead of adding your worthless, egocentric crap here? You're a blight on this shitty website.
Absolutely. It's all such immature fare nowadays. I would actually not complain if at least films were made competently, or with regard to what audiences wanted, but there's no fulfilment to be had on any level, at least with Hollywood.
Total ignorance. The British (not English - you probably don't even understand the difference) were far less harsh than the Belgians or Spanish. They also ended slavery. And colonial mentality? Look to the Israelis, Russians, Chinese or Americans for that.
Thanks, and down with romantic subplots!
Sounds great! Where can it be watched? Is there a torrent?
When women decided that they disliked being women, they looked around for new role models and saw only men. Now we're supposed to believe that women are better at being men than men are. None of this will end well. Women were happier in the 1960s despite being given everything they wanted since.
I'm not watching any new movies or TV shows this year. They're all shit and full of ideological nonsense. I'm on the left, but I can't stand the woke and feminist bullshit. Stick with the old stuff - it's way better.
Leonard Cohen's passing didn't come as a shock, but it's the only celebrity death that affected me.
Ugly black chick cast. Surprise, surprise.
Several times, yes! Him or Cary Grant, who of course was the person Curtis was impersonating.
Who chose the panel? What alternative panel could have been chosen? What evidence did they consider? Did they have full access to pathology reports and are they trained to interpret them? Also, the medical evidence is only part of the case. Where are the witness statements, the forensic psychiatry reports, the statistics reports, etc.? The original trial took eight months and produced thousands of pages of evidence and background, while this small panel took, I assume, mere weeks to produce a 31-page report. Yes, they can go through each death and hypothesise alternative causes of death, but what we're talking about is a pattern of behaviour by a trained individual over years - that's the Lucy Letby case. What's missing from this panel's very limited report is the murderous actions of Lucy Letby.
The reaction against her verdict is down purely to gynocentrism. Had she been a man, no one would have cared, despite 1 in 6 serial killers being female, and Letby fitting the mould exactly.
They're just small ovens. If you need a small oven, great. Otherwise, resist the hype!
This made me roll my eyes: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cwyx3n7lgllo
It's a very superficial show that makes very little sense. The show doesn't tell us how the helmets were made. If I'm wrong, quote the dialogue that disproves what I've said. Just an FYI - you come off as an arrogant neckbeard type. You might want to invest less of your self-esteem in defending a shitty sci-fi show.
What? The interstellar aliens who make proton-sized supercomputers are less advanced than us? OK, so they might be by the time they get to earth, though they could continue to develop while travelling. The sophons are essentially magic compared to our tech. They could easily kill off humanity. The aliens alerting us to their presence is probably the most stupid part of the whole show.
There's no Walmart in my country and I don't use Amazon Prime, but normal Amazon is dreadful nowadays. Whenever I search for something I get 100 cheap-looking products all from Chinese companies I've never heard of, with barely a single recognised brand in sight. Many of the products are identical but rebranded, and they all have hundreds or thousands of five-star reviews which mostly seem to be fake. When you go to a product page, you have to scroll down so far, past multiple rows of buying recommendations and pictures, to get to detailed product information and reviews. Amazon's so bloated nowadays - and the minimum spend for free delivery so high - that I prefer to go straight to manufacturers' websites and buy there. They've really screwed it up.

Sounds like a rip-off of Special Circumstances from the Culture books.
