ArtificialLink, in Gary Oldman Says ‘Thank God’ for ‘Harry Potter’ and ‘Dark Knight’ Movies Because ‘They Saved Me’

I mean we all know what about clickbait and titles. The headline here is a perfect example. Because it makes it seem like Gary oldman wasn’t getting offers potentially for movies or didn’t have opportunities for movies. And he was worried about going under or not being able to support himself etc etc. But if you read the actual article, it’s made very clear that he wasn’t sparse for opportunity as an actor, but rather these movies gave him an opportunity to be with his children more while they were all going through a very rough time and still earn an income presumably to support their lifestyle and this is what he feels saved him personally.

Gary oldman is a good dad. And it seems like he wanted to put that first and foremost. Which I think is wonderful. I was raised by a father who was given soul custody of his kids during a very messy divorce. And now that I’m older i can see how much sacrifice he made for me and my sister. Cool that gary oldman seems willing to do the same for his kids.

WarmSoda,

You’re not wrong. But the title is literally his quote.

ArtificialLink,

A lot are but it takes it outta context and twists his point slightly.

WarmSoda,

"Thank God for ‘Harry Potter.’ I tell you, the two — ‘Batman’ and ‘Harry Potter’ — really, they saved me,

That’s his exact quote. How long do you want the title, which is quoting him, to be?

ech,

“Gary Oldman thanks Batman, Harry Potter for ‘saving’ his family life”.

Accurate, informative, and shorter than the given title.

WarmSoda, (edited )

Next time I talk to Variety I’ll let them know.

Gamoc,

You respond like you didn’t specifically ask how.

rifugee,

I think /u/WarmSoda may be as pleasant in real life as their username.

WarmSoda,

Nah, theres just no reason for people to care this much.

WarmSoda, (edited )

It’s pretty funny you don’t understand what a rhetorical question is.

ArtificialLink,

The title does not need to be a quote to give you information about the article. They use the quote out of context specifically to twist it slightly and get more clicks.

hitmyspot,

While you may be technically correct, a quote taken out of context can be misleading, as is the case here.

They chose the quote to be the title for that purpose. That’s clickbait.

asret,

I’d prefer titles that more accurately described the content - they don’t necessarily have to quote the content.

WarmSoda,

Cool dude

Asking a question as a separated dad which I think I know the answer to. I get my kids every other week. Outside of that I also take them one on one (I have 3 of which 2 are special needs) when it isn’t my week. I have no idea why my ex doesn’t do the same. She comments I never have alone time because I’m using my week off from them, but I love my kids and they deserve one on one time. They also never leave my house early when the week is up but they’re always eager to come to my house even when it’s not time to show up yet.

I’ve always assumed it will pay off in the long run and they’re aware.

wrekone,

From one divorced dad to another… just keep doing what you know is right. Your kids will see it. It doesn’t matter what anyone else thinks.

ArtificialLink,

As a kid who survived through this maybe not special needs. But a kid who’s arrived through this. The best you can do is just show them how much you love and care for them no matter what. That will mean the world to them. Also, just hope your ex-whaterver e isn’t a bitch who warps and twists your kid’s minds. Cuz I don’t say this lightly. My dad with the way the court systems are was not awarded full custody lightly. The court system in America very much prefers the mother. And my mother was a crazy psychotic bitch who made me go to a fucking two week inpatient facility because she fucked up my head so bad. But my dad is the greatest thing I’ve ever had and he is caring and he has sacrificed more than I think anyone will ever know. And for all of that I said the best you can do is just put love first. Because love is what ultimately prevailed for my father despite my mother’s twisted fucked up words

The good fight, but it’s a bit on and off. There are subplots about resistance movements, but it’s more against far right than rich. They are just aligned. Some is the imbalance of justice.

I wonder how wide a release it will get. From the sound of the article, it’s up to the Library of Congress what happens next.

DesertCreosote, in Suggestions for movies and TVseries that (attempt to) criticise the super rich?

Leverage is one of my favorites. The reboot is pretty good as well.

Been a while since I’ve seen it but a movie called “A Day Without A Mexican” where rich assholes and middle class white people lose their nannies and field workers picking their food. I believe it was a dark comedy but like I said been a number of years since I saw it…

Wow. He actually kept a copy of the movie for posterity.

“Killing It” on Peacock was a surprisingly dark comedy about the death of the American dream.

CaptainSpaceman, in Controversial Jerry Lewis film to screen in public for first time after 52 years

Interesting article and I hope they digitize it at some point so everyone gets a chance to see it.

Also interesting from the article is a film from 2015 called “100 Years” starring John Malkovich that doesnt release until 2115
