So, still only halfway through, but I had to pause the video at the moment where Natalie jokingly (I think?) refers to Anna Sarkisian as "the most notorious art critic of the 21st century."

BTW:

It speaks to the utter perpetual infanthood of the gaming industry as an art medium that Anita's Intro to... 101 level analysis was and is so controversial lol

Say the person that seems to only watch MCU films.

Jussie probably thought that with the current climate in America that people would just believe him. Where he's wrong is police don't give black men the benefit of the doubt and will find ways to bury him. Like, did he think the entire country would unite? Naw. His big mistake was not realizing the actual climate of America.

Let's face it, if this was a white person chances are the police wouldn't do as much digging. He's also a celebrity, but that won't make him immune from the system. Media, police, and society paint black victims are aggressors with things like, "He smoked marijuana" and shit to assassinate their character. It wouldn't shock me to learn that a big chunk of this investigation was driven by that same bias. Does that mean he shouldn't be punished? Naw, but I believe he thought he'd have an easier time when that's not how America works.

Was it Excel in that thread saying the only reason they investigated further into Juss-man was because he was black?  She described it as a true failure of police work.

[Transhuman]

As bad as that is, the worst take was people saying "doesn't matter if he's guilty or not, this is comeuppance for the police department".

A rich actor hired his drug dealers to fake a hate crime because he is a narcissist who wanted more exposure/money, and the take they walk away with is "fuck the police".

Oh the salt. Just because your movies would never be as half as popular and profitable as those movies Mr. expert.

Endgame made history as the highest grossing movie of all time and it would be remembered as that for a long time and reached more people than Mr expert movies.

 

[VomKriege]

Also I've looked up his own filmography, none of them interest me in the slightest. Wolf of Wallstreet actually pisses me off since apparently a lot of actual wallstreet fucks see themselves as heroes in it.

Truly sad. I really hope that Chappelle's skit had nothing to do with this.

Yeah, I hope people didn't get offended that she dared find Chappelle funny and then harass her so much that she killed herself

It's really sad that people are starting to think Captain Marvel is a cult-film and Black Panther art-house political protest.

Looking at the MSM response to Joker, you have to wonder that if someone announced a film like Taxi Driver today if it would even make the big screen.
Wolf of Wall Street was a great film. Basically replacing the old gangsters like Martin portrayed in Casino and Goodfellas with gangsters of a new age, the Wall Street brokers.

As I type this, Google wants to auto-correct Goodfellas with Godzilla's.

there's the rare break out story unconnected from any other franchise like john wick or baby driver, and yeah a lot of those are still shallow roller coasters but at least original stories are still being filmed sometimes

[GreatSageEqualOfHeaven]

incel chief has a real fucking hate boner for Joker, that only grows in size and tenderness the more nothing fucking bad happens from the film, huh?

Joker is the first comic book movie in years to actually have something to say.

"Better treat the poor and mentally ill well or they'll fucking kill you!"

yeah, you nailed it, Aesop

Thanks to buttblasted losers like incelsiorlef, I had to see what this Joker movie was about and it was alright. A lot of it felt like Marvel vs. DC in hindsight. Journalists are generally opportunistic scum for clicks and they were true to form here.

[Transhuman]

I mean, these same reviewers gave Captain Marvel a 78% RT, so it's hardly surprising.

[GreatSageEqualOfHeaven]

Mr Mom was the 9th highest grossing film in 1983.

Us out drew Hobbes and Shaw for 8th so far in 2019.

Boy, this comment seems kinda disingenuous, while this posteris spinning the shit out of everything in this topic to deflect away from Disney.

Does Dave Chapelle need a defense force? He's being paid millions of dollars by Netflix to show the world that he's less funny now than he was 15 years ago.

Daphne was not famous enough on her own to demand that Dave be left out of the story, she has 625 Twitter followers. This is not a news story without Dave's association. 

Does Excelsiorcief needs a defense force?

 Also... that last sentence.

Just looked through his filmography and realized I've never seen any of his flicks and don't really care to 🤷‍♂️

Edit: Nvm, I did see the godfather series. Liked the first, second was meh, third was hot garbage.

Scorsese... The Godfather series...

[VomKriege]

I've seen many of his films. Wolf of Wall Street, Goodfellas, The Departed, Casino, Gangs of New York, Cape Fear, and The Family.

The Family isn't a Scorsese movie.

[Stro]

The Godfather Part III is a good movie, it's just not as good as the two predecessors that are canonized as two of the greatest movies ever made. It's also been a punchline for so long that that's all it is known for now.

[VomKriege]

I like it, the whole Italian / Vatican things works very well with me. It probably got panned so hard unfairly, I agree.

[GreatSageEqualOfHeaven]

Scarface is probably the best Scorcese movie. Maybe La Dolce Vita, or The Bicycle Thieves.

I dunno, he's done some good work!
Obviously not as good as Ant Man And The Wasp, but still

The best Scorsese movie is Dunston Checks In.

The fact that people see this as a big shot makes sense when you remember people are so defensive of their favorite mcu movies or AAA games around here. Even saying something neutral is an attack.

Because, somehow, everyone should be interested in 3 and a half hours of contemplative, #deep shit about whatever topic scorsese wants us to think about.

[nachobro]

However I dont really disagree with Scorcese's take either, I just think it's silly to suggest Marvel movies are lazily made just because theres like 2-3 movies a year, when in reality it's more like 4-5 films or more are all being produced at the same time with huge work put into all the projects.

I think to suggest the films are "churned out" is a bit disengenuious.

[Transhuman]

Truly the Guitar Hero of the cinema

[ShutUp]

A movie having serious subject matter and being contemplative is a bad thing now. 

ERA has been so brainwashed they really are at the “consume thing and immediately be excited for next thing” stage. They really don’t want movies that make them think a little bit. Just quips, action scenes and cardboard cutout characters whose sole trait is being badass.

[ShutUp]

The idea that Joker being a success w no shooting means that it was all moral panic wont ever not stop being funny and completely missing the point.

Your entire point for months was the movie was going to cause ANGRY WHITE MEN GRRR!! to go on shooting sprees because they were inspired by the movies message. That didn’t come true and now people are laughing at you and rightfully so.

Speaking of the angry white men thing

Joker success just reminds us that there’s a lot of “angry men” worldwide.

(Ignore the women who’ve seen and liked it please, this doesn’t fit the ERA agenda against the movie)

[ShutUp]

im talking about worldwide right wing movements, the type that angry men are most likely to be in favor of.

“It didn’t happen state side so what I REALLY meant was worldwide!” I’m not sure the message in the movie being fuck the rich would resonate too well with the right wing but maybe that’s just me.

honestly I think their problem is the movie makes them uncomfortable because the message on signs is KILL the rich and we see that "incel" Joker is the cause of the movement and the rallying point, and you see the aftermath/ongoing violent protests, fires in the streets, police officers killed so Joker can escape

if ACAB and we need to eat the rich then this shows one interpretation of what that would look like, and it turns out they don't really want that at all

Agreed. They realize they would have to go outside and interact with others to get done what they so badly want to happen. Much safer to stay inside and complain online about "something needing to be done".

Why is Dave Chappelle name dropped in the thread for that woman’s suicide? Feels like a very nonchalant way to link him to it after they tried saying his standup was transphobic.

In a “hidden extra” of the Netflix special, Chappelle talked about becoming friends with a transgender woman.

Dorman confirmed that she was the person Chappelle was referring to, even changing her Twitter bio to reflect it:

“Yep, I’m the Daphne that Dave Chappelle is talking about in Sticks & Stones,” she wrote, adding “Actress. Activist. Author. Advocate. Amazon.”

https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/transgender-activist-mentioned-dave-chappelle-160958957.html

That's what the connection seems to be.

[Joe Molotov]

Can’t believe Dave literally murdered her.

[Uncle]

yeah the story Dave told about her was actually pretty heartwarming, she sounded laid back and friendly and they had a nice connection

[EchoRin]

Who cares if Martin Scorsese happens to not give a crap about superhero flicks? Big deal. It's like getting worked up over Roger Ebert claiming videogames are not art. Why get triggered about a little opinion that doesn't really much at all? Because the person in question is important in their field? So what? Heck I disagree with both of those opinions (even if I'm not into the MCU as a whole), but it's all just a massive shrug.

[Tripon]

How is that not you implying Chappelle's words contributed to her death?

They did. Just almost certainly not directly. Every time a transphobe repeats rhetoric that demeans our very existence as a joke or something bad, our collective depression and helplessness increases, as does our chances to be the victim of violent crime.

Chappelle's exact words likely didn't kill her. The anti-trans hatred he added to society likely did. Words really do matter.
