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

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.

Kusimulkku,

MERICA NOMINATION YEEEHAWWW

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.

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

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

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

    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

    @Voyajer@lemmy.world avatar

    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

    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.

    FlyingSquid,
    @FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

    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

    RubberElectrons,

    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.

    there is no jurassic park after lost world

    MrJ199414, in Koepp Set To Write New "Jurassic World" - Dark Horizons

    I don’t see them doing anything interesting with this franchise. I wish they would stop.

    originalucifer,
    @originalucifer@moist.catsweat.com avatar

    i personally hope they never make Jurassic Park into a franchise. that movie was great and would only be ruined by any attempted, half-assed, money-grabbing sequels.

    HootinNHollerin,

    originalucifer,
    @originalucifer@moist.catsweat.com avatar

    can you imagine how terrible a sequel to jurassic park would be? prolly god-awful. so glad they never attempted it.

    As mentioned in the article, no one from the first two seem to be involved with this third film. Is there any form of connection to the other two?

    CaptainSpaceman,

    From what im seeing its going to be a pseudo reboot, ala Fantastic Beasts from HP

    Still no sign of Bruce, maybe a small cameo? It was pretty fun having him back for Tron in Kingdom Hearts

    Stovetop, (edited ) in Apt Pupil - Thoughts on this film?

    Isn’t this the film where Bryan Singer was accused of sexually abusing a cast of young boys during production? No thanks.
