@PincherMartin8 where are you dolts getting this 90%+ thing from? are you only polling teenagers in 1996 who were focused on the shower scenes? he put doogie houser in an SS Uniform at the end for fucks sake

LOL! When 90%+ of moviegoers have the same reaction to a film and it is diametrically opposed to the director’s stated political views, I’d say that’s conclusive evidence he either blew it or doesn’t really care that much with how the film aligns with his political beliefs.

@JennMGreenberg it might make some people wonder why none of the god books mention god creating some other dudes in another place. scientology might get some new converts at least

Why do people think this? How would the existence of aliens invalidate Christianity, or really any religion? It makes no sense to me.

@LizzyStarrrdust yeah, im shocked that the punks haven't backed the billionaire president who is aligned w/ the religious right and a tech class trying to make a new private security state. joe strummer is spinning in his grave watching this

I really thought We were standing alongside each other to resist authoritarianism and promote individuality and freedom. I really fucking thought they meant it. Not Keith Morris or the circle jerks specifically but all of them. My friends. My friend's bands. The whole punk rock movement in and of itself. They don't know shit and they're too weak willed to go against, or even inquire into the legitimacy of The social narratives they've been force fed under the guise of rebellion. What happened to punk rock? I'm so embarrassed for it. And I'm embarrassed for myself that I believed in a facade. That I genuinely didn't see them for the sheep that they are. This was actually a devastating realization for me during COVID. Fuck man. Punk is dead

@NewsCapGroup @briantylercohen this fan fiction is weird and boring, next post!

Ha! The look on her face is like, "you've never put your arm around me like that before!" And he appears to be thinking "yuck do I have to touch a girl to get elected?" BTW- how dare you objectify that female @briantylercohen

@matthewdmarsden the boost is probably more with you turds being weird focusing on the fake gay stuff while talarico fans focus on the "paxton has a documented history of corruption, also he let off his pedophile friend with a sweetheart deal". most of the country still has the ability to google

So he is getting a boost because he is not gay? Isn’t that homophobic? Man, the left is SO hypocritical.

@jason_howerton i dunno, why is it when i see someone defending a pedophile I assume they're a conservative

I'm not even trying to be mean. I'm genuinely curious... Why do all the liberal men look like this??? What is the science behind it? It's just strange to be that you can look at a dude and determine with 90% accuracy if they're a lefty.

@feelsdesperate when i was a 3 year old child i saw an episode of barney where a power outage took place, i then assumed all episodes of barney were about power outages. Same level of thought goes into looking at one tweet by one person and saying "see, this is all they do"

Good example of why ‘progressivism’ is stuck in a ditch and not going anywhere anytime soon. These people have no imaginations, can’t come up with a vision of the future, and have no new ideas. The best they can do is midwit wordcel rebranding exercises.

@Timcast god you're dull, this one isn't working on the normies, its just driving them away

if they really think its ok to be gay then why won't james talarico say hes gay?

@GabrielValles So much BS in this post, the fact that you used to work in the industry and are now misleading people as an AI evangelist is very depressing. Just trying to hasten the unemployment of even more artists so you can cash out one last time. Fuck off

Reality check: An extraordinarily small percentage of artists will ever work on a handmade animated film from a major studio. You have a better chance of making it to the NFL. If you do work on one, it’s work-for-hire, which means you don’t own the IP. You get paid, and when the project is over, you’re laid off. If you’re lucky and the film does well, you get to work on the next one. There are only a handful of jobs available on these projects, so opportunities for new artists are rare. Guillermo will get paid for his films until he dies. Most of the crew will get paid once and then hope they can find another job. My son started a stop-motion channel when he was 12. At 21, he gets paid every month from his library of 552 videos. He owns everything and has hard-earned skills. Guillermo isn’t an animator, model builder, storyboard artist, or character designer. Disney couldn’t draw better than his worst artist. And that’s okay. They are master storytellers who use skills they don’t personally possess to realize their visions. Here are your options if you have stories to tell through animation: start making films on your own. I don’t care what medium you use, including AI. Build a fan base that can support your work. If you’re among the tiny fraction of artists who get a chance to work at a major studio, go in knowing that you’ll get paid and own nothing. Don’t act shocked when you’re laid off. Plan on adapting, and use your time at the studio as social capital. I still get a lot of mileage out of having worked on Space Jam. Use AI as a force multiplier. Prove Guillermo wrong. Show that you can tell great stories using skills you don’t personally have, just like Disney and Guillermo. You now have the power of an entire studio on your computer, and everyone is underestimating you. Show them you’re making stories by humans, for humans. You can die with the ideas in your head, or you can use AI to help bring them to life. Whatever you choose to do, ignore the internet mob. They can’t tell stories better than you. They can’t draw. They can’t create characters. They’re not there on principle. It’s a social contagion. They all repeat the same chants and slogans they’ve been programmed to regurgitate. They won’t be there to pay your bills. And if a big-shot director looks down on you, tell him his opinion might matter when he starts sharing the life-time profits from his movies with the crews who supplied the skills he didn’t have.

@NotMikeHarlow guys, its an account w/ 7000 followers that you've never heard of. Lets just accept that any movie that will ever be made, from here on out, will have at least some people say its too woke and some people saying its not woke enough (esp on X where that opinion is monetized)

“You liked Obsession? Well was it directed by a black trans woman?!?!” 🤦🏻‍♂️ At what point do the identitarian grievances stop? Sinners lit the box office on fire. Barbie made a billion dollars. Jordan Peele is crushing it with every film he does. Is there a barometer for when we can shut the fuck up in making everything about race and gender? Or is it just forever and always?

@MagickWes @Badhombre the anonymous twitter account that is monetized would never lie about something like this

@Badhombre No way. Is that true?

James Talarico and his “girlfriend” met at a gay bar that she frequents in Austin.

@RepNancyMace you must hate this paxton guy then

We want the Death Penalty for anyone who rapes a child.

@nycguy1013 @realpeteyb123 they definitely did 4 decades ago

@tootmcboots @realpeteyb123 It’s ok, the schools in NYC suck and people can’t read or comprehend

I haven’t been through Washington Square Park since I was a younger and single man hanging out in NYC. Definitely the “roughest” part of my day, and as you can see in the video, the reason I put it on quotations is cause it wasn’t that bad. This park has always been much worse.

@realpeteyb123 @nycguy1013 if he left 35 years ago then that actually might be it

@tootmcboots @nycguy1013 He probably sold his property at the lows. 😂

@nycguy1013 @realpeteyb123 lmao, what are you even complaining about? that he went on a nice walk? for someone who left NYC 35 years ago you're still very attached nycguy1013, maybe its time to let it go

@realpeteyb123 That’s why I GTFO NYC after 35 years. Can’t take the stupid losers like you who settle for a shit sandwich and tell everyone it’s delicious. I guess if you’ve eaten gruel your whole life you don’t know what good food is

@atthatmatt @Clint_Davey1 lol, yes, Verhoven never liked to satirize America. all his films are about how great the US of A is and how our culture is superior and definitely not stupid

@Clint_Davey1 There is zero chance Verhoven actually wanted to make a satire. 100% chance he just said that to get the Hollywood types off his back. Starship Troopers is exquisitely designed to glorify all the based things. That's why it doesn't work as a satire. It's not one.

Getting slammed for my lack of "media literacy" over the Barbie movie. Here's the best example to explain the point. Starship Troopers was supposed to be a satire of American militarism/nationalism. We know this because Verhoeven said so, and because it looks like propaganda from within the world being depicted. But when audiences just watch the movie, it has a totally opposite effect than what the artist intended. Handsome, competent, brave humans are fighting for the survival of humanity against giant bug monsters. So naturally nearly all normal humans watching this side with the humans. This includes people who know the movie is meant to be satire. So, we can conclude that the artist failed in his objective. The actual effect of the movie is very different from his intentions. Is this "media literacy"?

@P0ssumActual lol, he's just a nerd you big fag

@tootmcboots This is a case of "just look at him"

"I've been smoking meat since I was a teen."

@BasedTorba lmao, how would you know? you're inside your house. you sit in a mental prison of your own making scared of the guy selling oranges at the intersection

>leave the house >endless traffic because of all the foreigners >Walmart loaded with foreigners >grocery store loaded with foreigners >mall loaded with foreigners >state parks loaded with foreigners >flower farm in the sticks somehow also loaded with foreigners Ya, I get the sit in your house people on a visceral level.

@MicSpaceRider @FT you're so fucking stupid and beyond saving if you think the Financial Times is "woke"

@FT Yah sure you shitty woke “financial” rag.
