cameron at first is talking about like « anti-authoritarian » and lucas interrupts to stress anti-*colonial* . 🐐.
James Cameron: "In Star Wars the good guys are the rebels, they're using asymmetric warfare against a highly organized empire, I think we call those guys terrorists today.". George Lucas: "When I did it they were Vietcong. That was the whole point."

people ate this up as some kind of clever marketing gimmick instead of the obvious reality that terrible working conditions for the artists along with phil lord’s indecisiveness resulted in an indeterminate final product lol. it’s not cool to release unfinished movies.
#SpiderManAcrossTheSpiderVerse editor confirms there are multiple versions of the film currently in theaters . “I was wondering when people might start noticing” . (via @AlliterAndy)

every time idf carries out a new civilian massacre in gaza i instantly see dozens of new tweets like this complaining about ‘antisemitism on the left’ with zero evidence
no offense but a lot of you have gotten kinda antisemitic and weird recently and also started parroting untrue shit uncritically. it’s getting really weird lol.

they don’t care what’s in it, they care about the who. both in front of and behind the camera. if dave filoni did all these things with actors named matt and chris they’d love it.
The Acolyte gave us Cortosis, Kyber Crystal Bleeding, Lightsaber Whips, Force Vergences, and Darth fucking Plagueis. It should be a lore nerd’s dream, but a YouTuber was mad about “lesbian witches.”. #TheAcolyte #RenewTheAcolyte

like half the people shipping these two spent all spring watching fallout and shipping the young ingenue with the 200-year-old cowboy that’s literally a walking corpse.
Imagine if he was actually old and yucky and he was using his force powers to mind trick everyone into thinking he was hot but he’s actually yucky

absolute scandal that someone who can’t take a punch was allowed to make it all the way to the olympics as a boxer for their country.
In a highly emotional interview, Angela Carini has just explained that she abandoned because she had never been punched so hard. Imane Khelif said nothing. And this is the issue that the IOC’s Mark Adams suggested everyone should just ‘dial down’. An absolute scandal

@MsDeadfast today this movie would have zero romantic tension and zero resolution to what little spark exists between the leads and idiots would come in here and call it "refreshing".

she can't understand the leftist disdain for a permanent underclass of quasi-invisible servant-people who exist at the mercy of 5-star rating systems and algorithm-based tech startup apps that have hollowed out a traditional base for stable employment.

personally find it embarrassing how casually the resistance (after this film) kills stormtroopers that because of finn they know are actually just brainwashed people who were taken from their families as kids.
The sequel trilogy has a lot of outstanding moments; This is a personal favorite of mine. Before this, stormtroopers were mostly just seen as faceless goons. This is what loyalty to the Empire really looks like at its fullest extent. It makes for a really engaging confrontation.

i swear usa can only conceive of relatable media & nothing else . some literature exists for other reasons than you transposing yourself onto the protagonists; and it’s good for students to be exposed to that stuff, they always end up liking it more than focusgrouped YA anyways.
I just read The Great Gatsby for the first time since high school. It's wild we make kids try to relate to that thing. You should be assigned the book at 35. The hell does a 17 year old know about “So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.”.

gaza: nonstop stream of pictures & video showing the destruction + death wrought by the idf for weeks corroborated from multiple points of view. zionists: made-up racist nonsense about palestinians to prey on white anxieties, hysterically repeating them hoping anyone will believe.
Hamas gang raped women at a peace concert . They raped elderly women and little girls until their pelvises broke and they died. They kidnapped an elderly woman who survived the Holocaust . Israel supports women's and gay rights. I stand with Israel. Unfollow.

@jaamestrevor @GlebMelnikov8 i think i’ve heard some producers say they know it’s useless, but the actors still prefer to perform physically than sit in a dark booth in front of a mic.

@KennyGoo oh yeah, just one look at avatar and way of water is enough to know cameron fully understands colonialism . probably better than lucas! because of how in way of water he underlines that imperialism only finds meaning in service of capitalism back home. was just quoting the vid😁.

the simple fact is for reasons known only to them the writers of last airbender were only able to write friendships correctly . everything they intend as romance is weirdly overstated & goal-oriented, only what they intend as friendship has the subtleties & nuances of romance.

it’s clear why resistance in gaza felt al-aqsa flood was necessary . what seemed like an eventual formality on oct 6 (🇸🇦-🇮🇱 normalization, w/ 🇵🇸 as an afterthought) is now political suicide even for the sickest government on the planet— and with gaza front & center of talks.

america killing 20% of the dprk population not being a mandatory preamble for any analysis of korea today basically is upstream of how coverage of israel's actions in gaza can feel so dissonant, no be today basically.
"Massacre in Korea" by Pablo Picasso (1951), condemns U.S. war crimes in Korea and compares it to the Nazi-led bombing of Guernica, which he famously portrayed in an earlier work. The U.S. killed 20% of the Korean population in the north and still occupies Korea today.

@orikron what kills me about americans is these moral panics are always post hoc. even if every yemeni is a european-style antisemite (they aren’t) they would have been that before last week & america was fine with it. they’re being attacked NOW for disrupting israeli shipping, full stop.

if you read a lot of history you learn every group of cartoonish evil bad guy video game enemies in the canon were actually just normal people taking the most extreme option to resolve structural problems forced on them after all other diplomatic recourse led nowhere.
The men in this video were originally herdsmen and had nothing to do with piracy. They explain that they only turned to piracy in order to “punish those foreign ships exploiting our ocean”. These so called pirates are simply men protecting their waters.

@hauntxmexthen waiting over a week to comment on something while being all smiles is the exact opposite of a meltdown rofl. it's the healthy reaction to processing bad news and being thankful it happened instead of sad it's over— ironically something these youtube outrage grifters never do!.

popular conception of genocide among westoids almost demands a helpless victim population, to the extent that even the suggestion that the targets could have fought back in the moment elicits strong negative reactions lol.

@GirlsGutsGiallx @fabiola_liano and the people who actually make transgressive art don’t scream from the rooftops how transgressive they’re being— to them it’s just normal honest expression of their own ideas, they can’t see what the big deal is supposed to be. croney doesn’t think his own films are disgusting.
