psyc, in TRON: Ares | Gillian Anderson joins cast as filming gets underway
@psyc@lemmy.world avatar

If we at least get a 4K remaster of Tron Legacy with this launch I’ll be happy

solitaire, in Text messages for TV and film. What works and what doesn't.

We’re still talking about how Kelly Rowland tried to text Nelly in Microsoft Excel for their ‘Dilemma’ music video. I

This is hilarious, I’ve absolutely used a shared spreadsheet for texting. Plausible deniability built right into it. Yes boss, I’m totally doing work and not slacking off.

    I know it’s always meant to be, you’re a clown… But it just looks like your username with the clown face every time, not the person you’re trying to call a clown. Just sayin lol.

    yuriy 🤡

    yuriy,

    well i’m just as surprised as the clown emoji to read such a shitty take, so as far as i’m concerned it still fits

    What was the movie about according to you?

    MedicPigBabySaver,

    How dogs shit next to trees.

    TropicalDingdong,

    I still haven’t seen it. Please hold back from spoilers.

    Wogi,

    It’s about Beach.

    TropicalDingdong,

    Damn now I never see

    SeabassDan,

    Arcane_Trixster,

    Triggered, huh?

    MedicPigBabySaver,

    Everyone should be, by Hollywood crapolla.

    Catoblepas,

    Why should people be triggered by “Hollywood crapolla”? This reminds me of that bit John Waters has about how a lady called the cops after renting Pink Flamingos.

    Why don’t they just turn it off if it’s offensive? Thats what I did when “Forrest Gump” started running.

    MedicPigBabySaver,

    Laughing at stupid banality is entertaining.

    Catoblepas,

    So it’s bad for a movie to make you laugh, and also you laugh when you’re triggered. Got it.

    MedicPigBabySaver,

    “Triggered” doesn’t mean shit. You’re just too stupid that you don’t understand that the current word of current affair is a pathetic misnomer.

    Believe it or not, people are allowed to like things you don’t like.

    AngryishHumanoid,

    Dumbfuck… can I call you “Dumbfuck”? Dumbfuck: if you had said you didn’t like the concept or plot or don’t like X as an actor or whatever that’s fine, I wouldn’t agree with you but that’s fine. But to say it’s just a “stupid shit movie” means ignoring excellent sets, excellent costumes, excellent casting, excellent cinematography, excellent writing, excellent line delivery, excellent music, etc. Not every great movie has good all of those things, this one did, so even if you didn’t like the message (which cleverly switched throughout the movie) any of those things still gives you something to appreciate. Unless you’re really fucking dumb, Dumbfuck.

    MedicPigBabySaver,

    Clearly, you’re the dumb fuck.

    Riccosuave,
    @Riccosuave@lemmy.world avatar

    Hmmm…this seems like something a dumb-fuck would say to deflect from their own dumb-fuckery, so I’m a bit skeptical 🫤 🤔 😘

    MedicPigBabySaver,

    Ah, dumb fuck deuce.

    RubberElectrons,
    @RubberElectrons@lemmy.world avatar

    Lmao.

    Well, those of us who’ve actually been intimate with and listened to women over the years understand that, while just a Hollywood movie, Barbie was a reasonably accurate commentary on how shitty this whole farce of “men do it best (yes everything)” winds up sucking for both men and women (and all in between).

    What didn’t you like? Did you expect a movie about toys coming to our world to have a haunting belabored plot that explored every realm of literary significance? Or are you sad that it made men being stupid actually as ridiculous as it looks?

    MedicPigBabySaver,

    Drivel

    Nawor3565,

    Having a hard time articulating any sort of argument, huh? Need a dictionary to teach you some more words? Or maybe an English class to teach you how to form a coherent, complete sentence?

    MedicPigBabySaver,

    Garbage is sufficient.

    Nawor3565,

    “it’s bad because I said so. No I don’t have to back my argument up.”

    MedicPigBabySaver,

    True

    AccmRazr, (edited ) in Seems we've already got the plot for Barbie II

    Greta is the snub, Margot did a good job but nothing stellar. Ryan Gosling stole every scene he was in.

    Edit: and the meme actually ignores that the plot is actually gender neutral. It applies to everyone, not just Barbie.

    SpaceNoodle,

    I think there were a couple bits about women in particular

    peopleproblems,

    nah get outta here

    TheBat,
    @TheBat@lemmy.world avatar

    Barbies don’t have bits though

    SpaceNoodle,

    I can see you didn’t finish watching the film.

    TheBat,
    @TheBat@lemmy.world avatar

    Barbies. Plural.

    Which begs the question, how tf Midge got pregnant? Or is she an anomaly in Barbieland?

    ArbitraryValue,

    It was Ken’s movie and Barbie was only starring in it.

    Margot did a good job but nothing stellar

    I kinda thought the writers made her character meh on purpose to show young girls that while stereotypical Barbie is a cool toy, she’s not really someone they should aspire to be

    cymbal_king, in Seems we've already got the plot for Barbie II

    I wanna take you for granted, yeah, yeah well I wiiiillll

    Wogi,

    I would love it if you would sing that song for 3 more hours

    doidera, in Seems we've already got the plot for Barbie II

    What actresses got nominated? You realize it might be possible there were better actresses from other movies?

    And maybe Ryan was a lot better than most other actors.

    sin_free_for_00_days,

    Strong performances this year:

    Nominees:

    Annette Bening - Nyad

    Lily Gladstone - Killers of the Flower Moon

    Sandra Hüller - Anatomy of a Fall

    Carey Mulligan - Maestro

    Emma Stone - Poor Things

    rickyrigatoni, (edited )

    It’s like people making the complaint forgot that there were other movies with women in them.

    boredtortoise,

    Need to see Anatomy and Maestro but Emma deserves that shit

    Wanderer, in Seems we've already got the plot for Barbie II

    Movie is made. Women is good but meh. Man is excellent.

    “Hey that guy was excellent”

    Omg that’s so sexist! If you wasn’t sexist you would automatically say that the women is better than the man.

    Tom_Hanx_Hail_Satan,

    I’m just echoing the other comment. The worms have eat your brain.

    WaxedWookie,

    In case you’re in any doubt, people are downvoting you for your atrocious framing, obvious victim complex, and general cuntiness. The fact that most of your posts are whining about whateverthefuck woke means is just confirmation that the worms have eaten your brain.

    Wanderer,

    Gosling maybe deserved a nomination. Robbie didn’t. In an equality world all is well.

    Yet some people, the orignal post, have an issue with that weirdly. I see no reason why I should change my opinion.

    I actually thought Barbie was fairly egalitarian and not about men doing something better and getting recognition for it. Also the oscars are separated by sex anyway so the post doesn’t make any sense. Robbie got bested by other women.

    WaxedWookie,

    Your point/analysis isn’t the problem - the issue is the utter nonsense and reactionary bullshit underpinning it that you’re telegraphing for all to see. Your arse is showing, and I’m not sure you even realise it.

    I agree with your point, but agreeing with someone practically screaming such nonsense is a pretty good reason for me to second-guess myself.

    Wanderer,

    It’s called satire. Guess it is too complicated for people nowadays. The message is exactly the same as the original message.

    Good job my arse is lovely! What a treat.

    WaxedWookie,

    Ah - it’s Schrodinger’s asshole - throw out dumb reactionary nonsense, self-victimisation and whining about the nebulous concept of “woke”, and if it’s not well recieved, it was satire.

    I’ll be charitable, put it down to Poe’s law, and recommend you give some kind of tell that you’re engaging in satire, because there was nothing in your post or what I saw of your post history that would indicate your nonsense isn’t sincerely believed.

    Wanderer,

    I’m not sure you understand what satire is.

    WaxedWookie,

    Yep - that, and not the dogshit takes you’re telegraphing behind that satire, which are validated almost immediately by a glance at your post history are the problem, Schrodinger.

    I’ll let you get back to sobbing about whatever the fuck woke is taking over and ruining everything for you.

    Tom_Hanx_Hail_Satan, (edited )

    I’m not sure you understand what satire is. If you do you do it right. This reads as failed sarcasim followed by a “its just a joke, bro” lazy deflection.

    Wanderer,

    I’m not deflecting anything, not sure how it comes across like that. I made a satirical comment, explained it. I stand by it.

    swiffswaffplop, in Seems we've already got the plot for Barbie II
    1. Greta did get a nomination, just not for director.
    2. Margot didn’t, but America did.
    3. Ryan Gosling was the best part of Barbie, partly because of the writing which, again, WAS nominated.
    4. This is not “the patriarchy;” it was a really strong year for those two categories.
    player2,

    You have to put 2 spaces after each line to force the next sentence into a new line.

    FatTony,

    but America did

    What does this mean?

    Vacationlandgirl,

    America Ferrera is an actress in the movie.

    FatTony,

    I guess I was a little too patriotic in mind there 😅.

    dependencyinjection,

    I ain’t even American and I was hella confused. I guess I can’t moan too much, it is a movies instance after all.

    MERICA NOMINATION YEEEHAWWW

    ME5SENGER_24, in Netflix Packs on More Than 13 Million Subscribers in Q4, Well Above Expectations

    Same day I read this I also read they cut their cheapest ad-free plan. Greed apparently knows no bounds

    BossDj,

    And consumers just don’t care

    bigkahuna1986, in Netflix Packs on More Than 13 Million Subscribers in Q4, Well Above Expectations

    Netflix was greatly rewarded for enshittification, so I expect they’ll only get worse and other companies with follow suit.

    Gigan,
    @Gigan@lemmy.world avatar

    Hopefully some of the other streaming services die and there will be some consolidation.

    Fandangalo,

    That’s just going back to cable. 🙃

    mundane,

    When I see the word cable, my mind goes to linear tv. A consolidated streaming service would be vastly superior to the consolidated linear tv packages of old cable.

    Fandangalo,

    It’s a fair point. I was talking moreso about just generalized bundling. I think both are accurate.

    RedditRefugee69, in Netflix Packs on More Than 13 Million Subscribers in Q4, Well Above Expectations

    I liked “Leave the World Behind”. It felt like an art movie and I’m always impressed by movies that show how confusing and frustrating it is to be in a crisis situation

    asteriskeverything, in Seems we've already got the plot for Barbie II

    Men getting credit for women’s accomplishments is the plot of barbie? I thought it was about how expectations and rules for gender identity and roles hurts everyone. That then expands on how women specifically feel a unique pressure to be an impossible ideal of everything all at once.

    reddig33,

    Why not both?

    electrogamerman,

    No, the plot is barbie not getting an oscar nomination while Ken did

    crazyminner, (edited ) in Netflix Packs on More Than 13 Million Subscribers in Q4, Well Above Expectations

    People without friends or family with a jellyfin server need their escape from this shit capitalism. Looks like they are willing to pay a little more. Wonder how long that will last.

    gmtom, in Seems we've already got the plot for Barbie II

    As someone that never saw the movie. All the clips, gifs and memes people make about it are the Ken scenes. Nobody talks about barbie presumably because her character and performance were good, but just kinda safe, middle of the road stuff.

    PeriodicallyPedantic,

    You’re not the boss of me, now

    lorty,
    @lorty@lemmy.ml avatar

    Maybe you just hang out on male spaces and men generally find Ken jokes funnier?

    kilgore_trout,

    Yes.

    S_H_K, (edited )

    I saw a few memes from her but her acting wasn’t middle of the road by any means. She had to do the more dramatic parts and Ryan did almost all the comedy. And we all know comedy does give more material for memeing.

    Also I noticed her memes were showing in my wife’s feed so I assume there’s some echo chamber effect going on.

    gmtom,

    Very good point I didn’t consider

    TrickDacy,
    @TrickDacy@lemmy.world avatar

    No

    ghen,

    Maybe

    MurphysPaw,

    Can you repeat the question?

    snake_case_guy,

    I don’t know

    Syntha, (edited ) in Seems we've already got the plot for Barbie II

    Why is he claiming that Gerwig got no nomination? Is he stupid?

    jordanlund,
    @jordanlund@lemmy.world avatar

    Best Picture goes to the person as a Producer, not a Director.

    So, yeah, if it wins, she’ll be on stage for producing the film, but not directing it.

    Syntha,

    She’s also nominated for best screenplay and Barbie really doesn’t deserve an Oscar for the directing anyways

    jordanlund,
    @jordanlund@lemmy.world avatar

    I dunno, the musical numbers and the giant beach battle look to have been pretty challenging from a directing perspective.

    Syntha,

    I’m not saying it’s badly directed but in comparison to Poor Things, Killers of the Flower Moon and Anatomy of a Fall it’s lacking. And I thought it was better than Oppenheimer, but not for the directing.
