JEDIT: I can’t actually tell if you’re joking. I hope you are.

I’m not talking about Wonder Woman. She can have whatever story she wants. I’m talking about the Amazons. Apparently they were children of Ares, so in the movie the whole backstory is all ****ed up.

Lol, you do know Amazons are made up, right?

Is it a Civil Rights Violation to ban men from a WONDER WOMAN screening?

Nope.

I guess I don’t even need to watch the video.

Reading books, or knowing anything at all, might help, of course.

The answer is neither facile nor obvious. It depends on the state.
Most states prohibit discrimination based on sex (/“gender”) for any “public accommodation,” which is typically defined so as to expressly include “movie houses,” or something equivalent.

Assuming this screening was at Austin’s Alamo, however, it would not be a “civil rights violation,” not because Finkly was flip and snarky, but only because Texas is one of just five states that does not outright prohibit discrimination by a private party based on gender. In 45 states, though, this practice would unquestionably be deemed a civil rights violation.

(The damages, however, would be so low that no lawyer other than a selfless crusader would take the case, which he would do on principle.)

Fine, here you have the same document from the nyc.gov website
http://www1.nyc.gov/site/cchr/law/in-public-spaces.page

It is against the City Human Rights Law for a public accommodation to withhold or refuse to provide full and equal enjoyment of those goods or services based on the following protected classes under the Law:
Gender
Gender Identity

Examples of Public Accommodations:
Theaters

Oh, it was the New York Alamo?
Then it was a clear-cut violation of civil rights. Case closed. No reasonable dispute, and summary judgment is granted in favor of the whiny fanboys who got shut out.

Here’s your damages: a coupon for 10% off your next purchase of any extra-large soda and jumbo popcorn during your next visit to Alamo New York. Not valid Thursday through Sunday.

And the argument that buying a ticket to The Last Jedi will stop the OOT from ever coming out is insanely stupid.

Don’t you mean The LOST Jedi?

Star Wars: Episode I: The Phantom Menace

Why did I watch this today? I don’t know, honestly. Maybe I hoped that it wouldn’t be as bad as I remembered, maybe I was bored and grabbed it without thinking, I don’t know. Somehow even worse than I remembered. As I wrote in my long chain of tweets while watching, this movie has no connective tissue, everything just… happens. This is the cinematic equivilant of buying a bag of chips that turns out to be mostly air.

And then two putrid, poison chips. Those are the “Jar Jar” and “Lil Orphan Ani” chips.

Darth Id Likes DO do

To celebrate Id’s humor level. You know, the level where talking about touching another man’s butt is funny.

Apparently you need a thread devoted to, rather than missing a joke, seeing an infantile joke that wasn’t there. And then amplifying your false-positive joke recognition by memorializing it in random contexts. Seems you might have a knack for that.

Exactly.

It’s not that Disney doesn’t want to share any profits at all with Fox. It’s that they don’t want to share the sudden spike in profits that would come with a 4k/OOT release.

That doesn’t make any sense though. If that were the case, that wouldn’t stop them from working on such a release at the present time, which they aren’t. It can take years for a restoration on this scale to be finished, and if they aren’t going to sell it until 2020 anyway, there’s no reason for them not to get a head start on it now if that was there intent.

How long did the Coppola Restoration of Godfather I&II take?

Even if they didn’t start working on it until 2018, two years seems like a long enough time.

Whatever they DO do, IF they do anything, it’ll be quiet and on the quick-and-semi-cheap anyway. Hopefully not as bad as the GOUT, but I wouldn’t expect much more. It won’t be treated like some big flagship project—it’ll just be a limited staff preparing what will essentially be a special feature.

Haha your dumb

His dumb what?

And yes if you’re going to keep posting this same “joke” over and over I’m going to keep posting the same counter “joke” in response.

He lambasted Frink for using the wrong ‘your’, but he continues to do this dumb joke.

When I do it, it’s poetic license.

Proof?

When Fink does it it’s cuz he dumb.

Proof?

Are you like a dog with a speech impediment or something?

I’m obviously using poetic license.

And, yes, I am a dog with a speech impediment.

Better typing and prose-compositional skills than Fink, though, so kudos! I’m sure he had to look up “lambasted,” for instance.
Good boy! Good boy!
I’d give you a biscuit as a reward but, you know…incorporeal cyber-imp and all that…

Well I’m-a keep telling it like it is whenever someone creates some idiotic, solipsistic, inside-joke-with-himself thread.

Death Id has a weird obsession with men touching each other on the butt.

i don’t see what’s so “weird” about it…

It’s not so much weird as much as it is homophobic. But I’m not surprised you think gay jokes are funny.

No you’re homophobic for not knowing the diff btwn homophobia and homoeroticism.
But I’m not surprised you’re a tone-deaf humorless misguided SJW steeped in transparent reaction-formation.

I’ll give you this, you’re assholery is certainly consistent.

So is yore illiteracy.

It’s true, no matter how insincere you think someone threatening suicide may be, you should never encourage it.

Generalfrievious, you really do need professional help. I’m not truly permitted to diagnose psychiatric conditions, and no one can truly accurately diagnose based on internet conversation, but I would bet money that if you were to see a psychiatrist, you would be diagnosed with borderline personality disorder. Your behaviors are classic. You can get help, and I hope you seek it, because you’ll never get the attention you truly desire by acting so melodramatic on the internet.

Dude, it’s a shtick, and you’re getting successfully trolled so hard right now.

You are wrong; Ender is closer in opinion to what my feelings actually are.

That’s exactly what a persistent shtick-puppet trolling for sympathy from the gullible would say…
