    The Orville

    This shit is completely unwatchable now. They left out the humor and went with an even farther leftist, more in your face NPC morality tales in space. This has reached the level of that horrible ST spinoff with the black woman captain What an incredible decline in quality.

    F4 was the most ridiculous comic book team ever, I hate that we have to endure them again to get Dr Doom

    No, wasnt Jamie Dornan the guy in those retarded movies that made all American women pretend they think BDSM is sexy?

    Marvel Universe stuff

    No idea if its fake or not, but the thought of having an all white Fantastic Four in 2022+ seems highly suspect. I mean theyre gonna make Prof X, one of the most iconic and recognizable comic book characters, into a black dude. But theyre gonna go back to the original all white composition...

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    Saw the trailer for this last night on prime. Honestly from the trailer it didnt look raceswapped at all. Maybe 1 or 2 black characters but not so many it was jarring. I am still fully expecting a WOT-style wokefest, just saying the trailer itself doesnt make that clear

    The Boys

    Pretty realistic though. Everything bad that happened to him was because racism. Were we expecting a balanced and thoughtful response from the guy in the gangsta rap t-shirt?

    Thor: Love and Thunder (2021)

    This has been bothering me ever since I read about it. Exactly right. If the species doesnt have two sexes, Korg is neither male nor gay.

    Thats hilarious. Its terrible. I'm not anti long hair but that shit looks like he's wearing a womens wig.

    Stranger Things

    Great season. Worst thing about it, hands down: the kid from CA with that ridiculous wig. Just his entire character, the actor, the retarded interpretation of "California stoner culture", the absurd anachronism of having fancy-ass weed with names like pineapple whatthefuckever in the 80s, but...

    Interesting, Non Political News

    https://www.cnn.com/2022/07/09/business/self-checkout-retail/index.html First read the headline. Thats the journalist's conclusions. Now read the article itself: 52+32=84 Eighty-four percent of shoppers rated self checkout as "ok" or "great". CNN concludes, "everyone hates self checkout". If...

    The Boys

    Every super on any show who whines about having powers. Its fucking insufferable. "Oh no my invulnerability / super healing factor / flight, its so hard being different!" The *only* one who ever had a plausible story for it was Rogue in X-Men. And I guess Ben Grimm but we havent had a watchable...

    The Time Traveler's Wife

    It isnt that confusing to me that people differ in their opinion of how hot this chick is. (ridiculously fucking hot, for the record, like easily in top 10 hottest women in Hollywood) But I don't think I could have sat through the whole thing if I didnt find her that hot. Way too lifetime.

    The Time Traveler's Wife

    This show was pretty great but the ratio of man ass to Rose Leslie never gets freaking naked was way too high. So hot, such a shame.

    This. He's not the first to propose "hey lets try the wings sauce with some other piece of chicken meat!" It never works, under any circumstances. Only the wings have the right ratio of skin to meat and surface area to volume. Legs, tenders, breasts, nothing else works. Only wings. I mean...

    no breading, ever Chicken wings are about crispy skin and hot sauce. there is no place in this equation for breading. properly fried the skin takes on the same texture as properly cooked bacon - that combination of crunchy and juicy. the skin should be crisp enough it shatters if you drop...

    Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (2022)

    I do agree with this, they did it at least twice early in the movie, and both times it was like "why did you blow so much effects budget on a throwaway scene no one cares about?"

    Its hard to wrap my head around not riding sqqq/spxu in this environment. I like investments that make the number go up rather than down. Obviously there will be green days and it'll hurt for a day or two. Do we sit around laughing at bulls every time theres a red day? In both cases it just...

    The Umbrella Academy

    No I dont want a prolonged explanation. I wanted anything other than literally "I'm trans now". they chose to go with "I'm trans now". It would have been much better to simply ignore it. She shows up, shes a dude now, no one mentions it ever, the show goes on. They could have done something...

    The Umbrella Academy

    The tranny thing was ridiculous. I thought they were gonna do some multiverse thing with it. They literally had her come out as trans on screen instead and we have to sit through her whining about it and all her siblings being "supportive" I cant think of a worse way they could have handled it...

    Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (2022)

    Dunno when all the edgelords crawled out of the woodwork into this thread. It was a good movie, one of the best so far in Phase 4. Not a great movie, it was no Spider Man No Way Home. But most of the criticisms here are retarded. There were two really dumb things in the movie. Two. 1. in your...

    I dunno, I think the arc in Wandavision - Loki - No Way Home - Strange 2 tells a pretty epic story, on paper. It certainly doesnt have a tenth of the emotional weight of the Infinity War saga, as its played out here, but it seems like a big story in principle, a lot happened. But as a story...

    Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore (2022)

    I made it about 10 or 15 min before falling asleep. Boy, they really wanted to make sure there are no doubts that dumbledore is gay, gay, gay. Thats about all I got. Is that all Hollywood has left? "like that other movie, but now with more GAY!" boooooring

    Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (2022)

    If you consider any MCU visually cool enough to be worth seeing on the big screen I think this ones gonna fall in that category too. There are lots of things to complain about but most are minor. Its much closer to Spiderman Far From Home than Eternals IMO

    people who pronounce species like it has an sh in it. yes some dictionaries list that as an acceptable alternative pronunciation. doesnt change how retarded it sounds. just stop related, people who stumble around trying to invent a new word "specie" to describe a single species

    I've been riding inverse ETFs down the slope since April, took profits over the last week. I suspect we'll see a small fools rally from here. No illusions about trying to time it to a particular time of day but I'm betting on a short rally, maybe a week or so. People just cant seem to help...
