Jesus, I’ve seen smear campaigns less harsh than this comment. It was a perfectly solid, entertaining episode and Jodie Comer was great as always
Not a fan of the show either but I seriously don’t understand these people. It’s okay to not like the show anymore and make valid arguments against it but some people are really pushing it. If they HATE it this much they should stop watching. They come here and spew so much ugly shit and ruin it for everyone who are still enjoying it.

I also believe Parasite winning is not recency bias but apparently it’s cool now to bash it. We certainly don’t deserve certain winners.

ReplyFebruary 5, 2020 at 6:27 pm #1203332010There’s 16,000 members at the DGA, but only 500 directors at the Academy. 9,000 at PGA but only 600 producers at the Academy. 8,000 BAFTA members but only 1,000 british members at the Academy.
How many members does the Academy have in total?
ReplyFebruary 5, 2020 at 3:02 am #1203330656It’s like one stupid ballot. People need to take a chill pill.

They are saying the entire film is a gimmick which is a joke. There should be absolutely nothing negative to say about this film. It’s a masterpiece and will get most of #1 and #2 votes.
This is ridiculous. You and the ones who liked your post can consider it a masterpiece all you want but you can’t force other people to feel the same. And no, I’m not a Parasite stan.
October 4, 2019 at 7:11 am #1203120935I don’t know why poeple are scoffing at this comparison. Both were crowdpleasers. Both made a buttload of money at the box office (we already know Joker will be a smash). And both had very strong lead performances that eventually became Best Actor frontrunners. Joker is absolutely this year’s Bohemian Rhapsody.
BR was a global and multicultural phenomenon. I’m sure the Joker will make a lot of money but I doubt it’s going to be a box office phenomenon that will generate the same international excitement. I haven’t seen it but most people say it’s kind of bleak and depressing. Sounds very different from BR which has its sad moments but overall is quite entertaining and uplifting. Joker is absolutely not this year’s Bohemian Rhapsody.
September 24, 2019 at 3:15 pm #1203100636This is beginning to feel like hysteria. Artistic expression should never be controlled even if it makes one uncomfortable. Censoring art won’t make violence go away in real life. They can sanitize Joker all they want it still won’t stop crazy people with easy access to guns. If filmmakers couldn’t delve into these dark aspects of life cinema would be so boring in its perfectly safe choices. The Joker is not a hero, he’s an evil sociopath and nobody is supposed to relate to him.

ReplySeptember 20, 2019 at 7:03 am #1203088532Tyrion didn’t choose the king, he made a suggestion and the other lords agreed. I’m confused about your point about Jon. You think it’s odd that Tyrion, a prisoner, may suggest the next king but think that Jon, a prisoner, should have been made king? He wasn’t a viable option.
But why let him make a suggestion in the first place? This is turning into a GOT thread again lmao

ReplyAugust 17, 2019 at 8:37 am #1203027853Honestly, this last season was so disrespectful towards Jon Snow and Kit Harington. He didn’t get to finish his arc by killing the Night King, he completely rejected his true calling as King of Westeros in a betrayal of his character, he got nowhere near as much showy material in comparison to earlier seasons, he started acting like an idiot who repeats the same two lines over and over in the latter half, and he ended up having one of the least satisfying endings of the entire show.
What they did to Jon Snow was incredibly disrespectful indeed. In the books he’s a lot darker and complex. Show Jon is a mumbling idiot who parrots „You are my queen” over and over, lacks any drive whatsoever and is unrealistically loyal to a fault whereas book Jon is ambitious, ruthless, cunning and perceptive. He would definitely aspire to take the power because he considers everyone else incompetent. Kit deserved better.
