Is there a movie equivalent? The Breakfast Club kind of seems like it would be classed as one.

There was one movie where the main character spent the entire thing in a phone booth that advertised itself like it was going to be this. I don't know if cheap movies would just have sets lying around unless they're TV movies though.

This is your movie culture on Marvel films.

A bit back, I was reading some review - probably an AV club article that talked about some show at the time that I was watching and they mention something about how this episode was probably written to save money as it was all set in the one space and I'm starting to notice this as a trend in tv show to the point that it makes it hard to take the shows seriously (i'm not talking sitcoms where they don't ever go anywhere - eg, friends)

TLDR: cheap tv is cheap.

Quote

it bugs me that DCTV reuses so many sets. The “coffee shop” in Arrow and The Flash is clearly the same set with slightly different decor.

Also on Arrow-is Oliver’s mayor office SUPPOSED to be the same office from Queen Industries that was used so much in the first few seasons? And became Palmer technology? Because it’s clearly the same set.

Quote

The idea that "sets are too expensive" doesn't make much sense to me,

This reminds me of this weird anxiety sitcoms gave me as a kid. I used to get really uncomfortable because it felt like these people were trapped in a make believe world. It got worse each time they'd open the door and you'd see the very obviously fake background, it'd drive me crazy that these people weren't able to escape out of these handful of locations and their whole lives seemed to just be in those places.

Do we not? I mean, it may indeed be the case that we don't do nearly enough of it. But it seems to me whenever I click into a thread like this there is at least one person saying some ignorant shit, who is immediately dunked on by at least two other members and [unfortunately, sometimes, but not all the time] given at least a warning by mods. Hell, just the other day, I went off on some people in the diversity thread for phraseology and statements used in describing Southern Europeans (which I never in my life imagined I'd have to do, lol).

This kind of thing is very important to me, ignorant as I may be. Especially considering why we're all here, and what Era itself was supposed to represent. Could you please share your perspective with me further?

I remain strongly against the decision not to add Kingdom Come or The Last Night to the Era Banlist. Frankly, with their repeated and unapologized-for transphobic comments (which were absolutely not just from "one rogue employee") I feel uncomfortable seeing new threads for CD Projekt as well.

I have long held "Separating art from artist" to be a deeply flawed argument, especially when the problematic artist is directly receiving compensation as a result of consuming their art, which is used to further their problematic views. It seems to me that people just don't want to abstain from playing a game they would otherwise enjoy. And that's really not too big a sacrifice, considering the sheer number of quality alternatives. More alternatives, in fact, than you could probably play through in your lifetime.

Beto was the inevitable candidate for all of three months before we soured on him, AOC won't even be able to run for President until 2028. I think she's great, but there's no way of knowing how we'll feel about her in three months, let alone 9 years. Not being a party pooper, I just want to see more than a month of her career in politics before anointing her.

Or they know how close to being shut down Mueller is at any moment so have been holding things back, or they've agreed to be one of mueller's dead man's switches, or any other number of possibilities.

It's clear that people like emptywheel and hoarse whisperer are smart and well-written/spoken, but they're really not that far ahead of everyone else. It's been all the traditionally-operating journalists that have broken with new information and advanced the narrative forward. The only non-traditional journalist people I can think of that have been on to something ahead of everyone else are Christopher Steele (dossier) and Rachel Maddow (Trump echoing Russian views and foreign policy goals). And that's only twice throughout the past two years. If/when we find out more about this special counsel decision to make a public statement, it will be through journalists these DOJ people trust.

My guess is Robert Mueller wanted to wrap this up much quicker but just kept finding more dumb Trump associates who lied to him (because that's what they do) and/or leads to pursue.

"So Eric, you are the son of Donald J. Trump correct?"

"No"

"You know lying to a federal prosecutor is a felony correct. Shall we try again?"

"Oh, yes. that's my dad. But I was told not to admit anything that might embarass him"
