Varyk, to movies in what are some of the most glaring and significant mistranslations in movies? add spoiler tags if necessary, please.

Varyk, to star_wars in Fan theories about racist caricatures in phantom menace do not hold water

Discounting is the perfect word , as “accidental racism” lacks credibility as an argument to legitimize an attack on the characters and voice actors. None of the “racist” complaints have anything to do with race, but if you want them to be racist and you have the believies, you can make them so.

Importantly, you are ignoring that none of the fan complaints are about “accidental racism”, they are outraged by ostensibly conscious choices. They are assuming and acting upon the assumption these choices were made in bad faith. You’re changing the goalposts to “all racism is bad”, full stop. Which, yea, but nobody argued racism wasn’t “bad”.

Your arguments gel precisely with fan consensus: we don’t have much to say about a bland movie, so let’s complain about something we know everyone can get behind, regardless of its merit. At least we have a mob.

Varyk, to movies in ‘Alien: Romulus’: Ridley Scott Says Fede Álvarez’s Movie Is “F***ing Great”

Yea, this is probably it.

I think the latter movies are actually too packed with lore, to the point it’s easy to lose the plot.

But there is a great yt channel, kroft talks about movies, Kroft Talks About Movies

that goes through the scripts, action sequences frame by frame, costume and design, what seems like designed inconsistencies in the set to hint at a consistent alien universe lore and taxonomy, It’s a very impressive analysis channel that has made me appreciate the both Prometheus and covenant much more.

Varyk, to asklemmy in What is the most promising pathway to reach universal healthcare?

The Medicare for All act has been introduced multiple times since 2003 and is a great intermediary step to true comprehensive health care for all. Another comment linked to that above.
