When I see people make broad generalizations about black horror usually due to their ignorance and not being able to understand the subject matter, I recall this video explaining how gender and race can change how a genre is portrayed and why it is important to have that diversity.

Black Horror is nothing more than revenge porn against Whites

@wghisikll @DevEthos Well no, that’s not what makes something cosmic horror.
English

@commannand @DevEthos Mind u every single one had something cosmic causing horror making it cosmic horror

@TheXReportCard @MelanatedKing20 You’re getting real mad in the comments, huh?

@TierOnePoster @MAGAMichelleS69 @taliaotg @NYCMayor Yeah, you can’t say the s- word without getting flagged 🦭 liberals love being racists towards pic conservatives and then justify it by calling them Nazis
English

Why haven’t I seen liberals outraged over the fact @NYCMayor wife used the N word and said F*gg*t?

@jan_murray This is some fairly typical ‘shit-for-brains’ anti trans bigotry.

I was trying to explain to someone yesterday why women defend single-sex spaces.
“Imagine you were forced into an enclosed space with a strange man and told to take your top off in front of him. No choice. No opting out.”
“That’s different,” they said. “That’s basically sexual assault.”
“Exactly,” I replied.
“Now imagine the man is wearing women’s clothes - but you still know he’s a man.”
You could literally see the penny drop.
This is the grown-up version of being plied with cider at a party, shoved into a cupboard with a boy - then being told you’re frigid if you don’t do what he wants.
Only now, frigid has been replaced with bigot.

@sweppic @sickdrmfantasy @ChrisDebate @jake_doubleyoo Except the way ‘glazing’ is used as a euphemism doesn’t really line up with this definition.
English

@sickdrmfantasy @ChrisDebate @jake_doubleyoo Obviously the term itself didn't originally refer to semen but it's newfound popular use to mean "praising" does come from slang regarding sexual act of nutting on someone. A lot of commonplace words have vulgar origins, like circlejerk, scumbag, and teabagging

@0CEANKNIVES Adaptation more or less does this but the twins are writers and one is *arguably* poorly written.
English

@manfightdragon @GenePark You’re part of the problem.
English

@GenePark I dont understand why so many people have attached their ego to Crimson Desert. What is going on here? The game is the most 7/10 thing imaginable. No narrative yet you're forced to play as generic sword and shield dude in an offline MMO world where nothing happens. So strange.
English

the reviews were accurate. this isn’t gonna be a game for everyone.
Sung Drip Woo@YaBoyRoshi
Yeah Crimson Desert is not for me at all, tapped out after 2 hours. Im sure there’s tons of people that will have a great time though!
English

@Belle_Jam_Jarr @dilanesper Yeah sure, because bigots are magically just one articulate ‘talking to’ away from becoming decent people.
English

Weird take for someone who's apparently a litigator.
Surely such occurrences would be opportunities to show the general public what a highly persuasive communicator you are?
Oh. Ahhh. Got it. You're not. Yikes! Yes, well, in that case, it's probably wise to block anyone who disagrees with you. 👍
English

@dilanesper Reality is helpful, often necessary, for coherent conversation though.
Esper - It's interesting that the female crime rate is rising so much.
Bart - Those are men who are now saying they're women skewing the stats.
Esper - Please don't correct me...

@Brocklesnitch Very different kind of film but clearly cut from the same cloth.
English

@commannand thank you! i loved secret agent so will check it out. and i have been wanting to see Cloud but haven't been able to access it anywhere annoyingly

@CharlotteNevis3 @Kat_Says_Stuff @HJoyceGender Parents could have made their own decisions accordingly. Not any more though.
English

@Kat_Says_Stuff @HJoyceGender It means it was open to males, so a possibility. A concern for parents.

If boys and men are excluded then women and girls can have nothing at all apparently

@wgrahamprofiler @harvv No offense but you sound like a potential fucking retard
English

@harvv Yeah sort of. The chief difference being the first wave of positive ‘reaction’ here did feel a bit manufactured. I thought it was a pretty good time at the movies.

@AlexTulip @xrafstarguts Your hyperbole is as insufferable as it is juvenile.
English

@xrafstarguts that one "Disco elysium" inspired D&D game that made me feel physically ill when I played through 20 minutes of it and almost made me pass out with how dogshit it was.
English

@AnishA_Moonka It was pretty good. A bit forgettable, tbh.

You're watching a $248 million film and not a single green or blue screen was used. The alien is a handmade puppet. The cockpit physically rotates to simulate gravity. I looked at the production tech behind this 95% score, and the engineering is wild.
Phil Lord and Chris Miller, directing their first live-action movie in 12 years, built the entire Hail Mary spacecraft as a real set at Shepperton Studios in England. Not a miniature. Not a digital model. A full-size ship interior you can walk through. Production designer Charlie Wood studied the International Space Station, Russia's Mir station, and the Boeing 747 cockpit to get the look right. He deliberately made the panels mismatched, because real spacecraft are assembled from parts made by different companies. Nothing matches perfectly. That's what makes it feel real.
The cockpit is only about 8 feet wide. It sits on a mechanical platform that can tilt, spin, and shake, so when the ship changes direction or enters different gravity conditions, the whole set moves. Chairs end up on walls. Ladders flip direction. Gosling was suspended inside a spinning ring so he could float and move through the ship for real, reacting to actual hardware around him. No guessing where a wall might be added later.
Then there's Rocky. He's the alien co-lead, and he's not CGI. Neal Scanlan, the creature designer who built the Porgs for Star Wars, spent a full year on this character. Over 300 designs before they landed on the final look. Rocky is a thin, hollow shell, 3D-printed from a digital sculpture, then hand-painted in see-through layers so light passes through him like skin. His arms pop off and swap out depending on the scene: one set has a closed fist for walking, another has tiny motorized fingers strong enough to pick up objects. Five puppeteers (nicknamed the "Rockyteers") operated him in every scene. James Ortiz, an award-winning puppet designer from New York theater, voiced Rocky and controlled him on set. When Scanlan met him, he told Ortiz, "You're Frank Oz, and I'm making Yoda for you." Every reaction Gosling gives to the alien is to something physically in front of him.
Greig Fraser, who won the Oscar for shooting Dune, filmed the space scenes in the larger IMAX format (that taller image you see in IMAX theaters) and the Earth flashbacks in regular widescreen. Then the team did something unusual: they took the digital footage and printed it onto real film strips, twice, using two different types of film stock. Then they scanned those strips back into digital. It sounds redundant, but it adds a texture and warmth that you can only get from physical film. Fraser used the same technique on Dune and The Batman.
Drew Goddard spent six years writing this screenplay. His last adaptation of Andy Weir's novel, The Martian, earned him an Oscar nomination. He described the challenge this way: a screenplay gets about 5% of a novel's word count. The lead is alone for most of the runtime. When he finally gets a co-star, that co-star doesn't speak English, communicates through sounds closer to whale song, and has no face. Goddard called it a screenwriter's nightmare, then said that difficulty was the whole point. He and the directors fought studio pushback to keep Weir's original ending intact.
95% from 212 critics. 98% from over 2,500 audience ratings. And the lead isn't a superhero, a cop, or a soldier. He's just an ordinary middle school science teacher.
