Too bad it’s stolen. 😕

I think they said he appears to be normal, but isn’t.

I still don’t get your point. Just because two people are bad doesn’t mean both are equally bad. He’s a Nazi, the other’s violent, both are stated as such.

Are you trying to say the neo-Nazi got preferrential treatment…?

The bigger issue with the ‘Leia as other hope’ thing is the fact that she simply couldn’t have been an option at the time of Yoda’s original declaration in ESB. When Yoda said “there is another”, Luke was flying off to Bespin to rescue Leia - the same Leia whose fate Yoda could not see and who Yoda had just encouraged Luke to sacrifice for the greater good. She simply wasn’t an option at that point, sister or no.

Great catch. Yoda does basically want Luke to sacrifice his friends for the greater good and stay on Dagobah to finish his Jedi training. Yoda pulled his line of, “There is another.” directly out of his green ass.

Or Luke pulled the idea of Leia being his sister out of his not-yet-Jedi ass, and Ben just let him believe it.

I want to believe this, but it requires Ben being too outrageous.

Another year, another year down.

I too, hate my life.

Justice League (2017)

Meh.

I thought it rather ok. As in I was entertained.

Superman was very one dimensional though.

I love how Hollywood consistently fails to get this character right. Unless you’re a fan of the Silver/Bronze Age Superman, in which case look no further than the Donner Superman. But if you’re a fan of the Modern Age Superman, specifically the Superman of the late '80s & '90s? No soup for you.

Chris Reeve is definitive for me. What do you find appealing in the more modern character? I’m not familiar with the differences myself.

Blade Runner again. Fifth watch in two years. Always gets better. I always watch it with someone who’s never seen it before, which sounds a lot more interesting than it is. I wish they could say more about it than “Yeah, that was good”.

I don’t know why I even bother.

I don’t either. Most of what you say makes no sense.

Wait, men don’t go crazy over legs anymore?

I hope/assume you’re joking.

I suppose it’s a half-joke, the assertion that men are no longer attracted to legs sounds preposterous to me.

Ever wonder why dudes used to go crazy over legs?

They still do in some cultures. I’m saying cultural acceptance of a norm is not unfair per se.

It is if […] women the people who are subject to this norm/law find it unfair.

But most of them don’t.

Wait, men don’t go crazy over legs anymore?

Do any of you actually know any women who complain about this?

Frink, you wouldn’t have any issue if your wife or daughter walked around topless?

The only drink I want to recommend would pinpoint my location,so I can’t, godammit.

It really doesn’t take that much effort.

Letterboxd is great. The most prominent community is kind of awful, but the actual website is awesome.

I don’t see where the problem is.

I don’t get where the inequality is, and find it frankly perverted we have a bunch of men here telling women to go topless. This argument is dumb. That’s the last I’ll have of it.

There is always this thought that just because something is done the same way it’s always been done, it should be done differently. In this case, I don’t see why anything should change. What’s the benefit? The effort and cultural shock that would result is far more work than benefit. A lot of these progressive ideas for men and women seem to be change for the sake of change rather than any real benefit for anybody.

The internet has been corporatized. What was once a sprawling frontier is finally being closed off.

You still can’t say it on television.

I think the argument does have some merit, and shouldn’t be outright dismissed.

Man that Trump guy, what a dick.
