Witchblade from 2001

Easily more than a decade ahead of it’s time in many ways. It’s themes, style, and narrative would all be premier TV stuff today.

Part of me hates myself for asking this. You clearly put a lot of effort into this.

Why? There are at least a couple actual blogging options with ActivityPub support. Why try to force Lemmy into something it isn’t.

I specifically remember thinking after the first episode, “This is cool, but I can see why it’ll never get a second season.” Then it got 4.

But again he’s a superhero accountant. Not a healthy well adjusted person with autism. I wouldn’t expect to relate to everything.

Besides there is nothing in the movie that suggests he needs to do those things. I saw that as a routine instilled in him by his abusive father. It’s not some example of a proper coping technique he would have learned in the great looking facility his father refused to send him to.

I never thought the movie was presenting him or his brother as happy well adjusted people. The abuse they were raised with was quite obvious.

Disagree. I felt seen.
But I’m not a superhero accountant, so I could be wrong

What fate have I chosen?
Is Canada planing a preemptive attack against the US!?
I’ll need some popcorn. The view from New Mexico will be great.

Ok. So even though you don’t support some things your government does, it’s everyone’s moral duty to blame and punish you for it.
Understood. Good day sir.

As a trauma hospital ED XRay tech, (drastically under represented in The Pitt BTW). Maybe 90%+ are nice people. Even to staff.

Do you believe everyone is always happy with everything their government does? Are you, with yours? I ask because it really sounds like you might think that.

My argument is that Uber itself has directly done more than enough to be boycotted. Their entire business model from the very conception, was an obvious anti-competitive monopoly play. Saying Uber should be boycotted now, for something they aren’t even doing? It’s not a great reason.

But maybe I’m wrong. Doing the right thing for the wrong reason, is still doing the right thing. So sure, welcome to the Uber Haters Club. How do you feel about Lyft? Can I mark you down for boycotting them, or any other rideshare, delivery, or gig-worker “jobs”?

Yah, that argument does nothing for me.
Uber being a terrible company, which ruined an entire industry, acting like a vampire feeding on both it’s users and providers? That’s a good reason to not use them.

That’s what “Teaser” trailers are supposed to be.
Preproduction, no real footage, announcements of a movie that’s in the works.

Should we tell her there’ll be another Pope, or is it funnier to let her keep believing?

Why is that a problem exactly?
Is it just because they’re Russian?
Are there some dots I’m not connecting?

Two things can be true.
Malicious people can very often, be so very stupid.

Incompetence exemplified

Why exactly is ‘That Old Marvel Feeling’? Specifically.

My go to movies when looking for that kind of thing, are Kiki’s Delivery Service, and Mr. Right.

So you’re saying, since it’s their call, it makes sense to not have a weird conversion with them?

Exactly true. But celebrating a new coat of paint, instead of cleaning the old paint, is kind of silly. That’s my point.

What’s worse, being weird, or just letting this happen?
