(in my opinion and from my perspective of course, though I would tend to think this should go without saying).

Depends on the statement. If I say this thread isn’t about the Oscars…that’s kind of accurate but mostly not true. If I say this thread isn’t about Syria, that’s definitely accurate. Whether something “is about” something sounds like a factual statement.

Nothing is factual when it comes to art, especially when you’re talking about what something “is about.”

It is possible to be mistaken. Not all is so relative. In any event, whether art is about X doesn’t mean an objection to element Y is not well founded.

Do you like arguing in circles?

Only if the circles turn into hands and choke the pigmen.

All I know is that Shape of Water looks weird as fuck just based on the clip or two I saw in the brief moments I looked up during the Oscars. The fish man looked ridiculous, not something that should inhabit a serious film.

Doesn’t it resemble Abe Sapien from the Hellboy movies, also played by the same actor?

I decided against seeing it when I heard a gastronomic spoiler.

In any case, want to bet Universal gets that perpetually delayed Creature From The Black Lagoon remake into first gear now?

I once bought a bottle of rubbing alcohol that said “ingesting will cause serious gastronomical disturbances”. Was it related to that? Asking because these are the only two times I’ve ever heard that word.

More like a small furry animal gets eaten.

oh thats fine.

if you had said small feathery animal gets eaten then i would have been upset :-p

The controversial Norwegian Blue scene will be on the Blu-Ray extras. 😛

speaking of controversial…

I just finished the first three books of the Red Rising trilogy saga (so, i guess i need to read Iron Gold next).

*googles Red Rising*

Ooh. Piqued my intrest.

I really enjoyed it. I asked for input from friends on sci-fi books i should read, and this was the most mentioned (that i hadn’t heard of or read before).

It does make me feel old to read a book that mentions harry potter and hunger games as influences…

There’s something about Filoni’s Star Wars sensibility that rubs me the wrong way. Having watched Rebels, it feels remarkably sterile, existing in this purgatory between epic adventure and serialized drama.

True but i would take it over holdo not telling plans to the Resistance and starting a goddamn mutiny.

Hahahahaha.

To clarify (and this has been beaten to death in the TLJ thread), of course she wouldn’t tell Poe the plan, and Poe proved her right.

he Poeroved her right
