Nowhere near a princely sum or anything, but fine. I made $11/hr doing cleanup animation for my first industry job. Even though it required less talent than animating, it was STILL underpaid, especially because it was in Hollywood.

I looked at the Animation Guild rates for juniors and it starts out at 70k a year, which is probably more than I'll ever make in my career in Canada. But that's also why studios are trying to get all their movies done abroad now, aside from the huge players like Disney.

Mr. Peabody & Sherman was a good movie, and it's probably one of the only films that beat expectations for how adaptations of 1960s-1980s tend to be terrible. Sometimes they told the same jokes too many times or over-explained them, but I laughed at a lot of them, like the one where Mr. Peabody sneaks onto the Trojan horse in a smaller Trojan horse. I'll give it 3/5, better than the Hotel Transylvania series, but not as good as something like Bolt

I thought that was funny, although the actual villain was very unnecessary to the movie as a whole.

I just watched A Whisker Away on Netflix. A cute cat transformation movie, although not as charming as The Cat Returns. I felt like it was a little bogged down in high school drama I wasn't that interested in, but it really got going when they go to the fantasy cat world in the third act. That part had lots of cool world design and many fascinating cat people <3 3 paws out of 4

This is actually canon to the bible, it just doesn't get mentioned a lot because she was a remarkably chill woman in real life and from what historians can tell she lived an extremely peaceful existence drinking the blood of animals in the woods (as was the style at the time). Jesus also had two werewolf cousins, which also rarely gets brought up.

Speaking of Lupin, has there been any word yet as to whether they're planning on doing a Part 6 or some other related anime series at some point? I know there was a movie and/or special that came out last year at least.

Well, Chicken Run 2 is recasting apparently everyone, and while that's understandable in the case of Rocky, Julia Sawalha didn't even get asked to do a voice test (and did one on her own showing her voice really hasn't changed much at all in 20 years.) Disappointing.

Pretty much every church ever, if you go high enough, has done terrible things or has some terrible views. It doesn't stop churches on the local or personal level from being good or helpful. Why does Chris Pratt especially have to answer for his whole church but every Catholic celebrity doesn't?

Catholics aren't the hip cool church for Hollywood up-and-comers, for one. Plus this is what one of the pastors said about the LGBTQ+ community: "Hillsong Church welcomes ALL people but does not affirm all lifestyles. Put clearly, we do not affirm a gay lifestyle and because of this we do not knowingly have actively gay people in positions of leadership, either paid or unpaid." And that's, you know, not addressing the allegations of pushing conversion therapy. FilthyImp fucked around with this message at 22:11 on Jul 11, 2020 |

Right, but he's said that his experience with his own personal church has been different than what's apparently espoused by the organization as a whole, which is, like, everyone's experience with church, isn't it? On a meta, global level, they're terrible, power hungry, intolerant political organizations, but on an individual, per-parish level they can be helpful and friendly and open. Like, if you want to share your faith with some people, you pretty much have to ignore what's going on higher up.

FilthyImp posted:I mean, it's not him saying "we need to own up to the molestation, damage to access to birth control, antiabortion, anti-gay sentiment..." but it's a bit better than "well my church is very inclusive actually because they didn't stone me when I was going through a divorce" when someone else brought up explicitly anti-gay bias in the church and leadership. I dunno, Colbert saying that the Catholic church used to be bad feels like a hell of a cop out. In the end, all of these people have to balance their faith and community with the terrible things the larger organizations have done, continue to do, and certainly do in the future. I don't see why Chris Pratt is particularly awful in this regard, and why everyone seems so eager to lambast him specifically.

There is also the fact that Hillsong Church was founded in 1983. There is a bit of a difference between Stephen Colbert being born and raised in a religion that his family has probably been born and raised in for generations vs Chris Pratt joining an aggressively evangelical, aggressively hateful organization that is younger than him. It's an interesting point and I agree that Catholics in general should get more flak for being part of an organization that so aggressively fights against gay right and women's rights. But there is a cultural weight to Catholicism that does make being Catholic a fair bit different than being part of being part of Hillsong Church. For one thing, someone who is Catholic can only be part of the Catholic Church. Someone who is a non-denominational evangelical Christian can be that as part of any one of a number of different organizations.

I mean...maybe he just likes his church? Maybe he enjoys the community. Maybe what he sees on his level is genuine unconditional love and acceptance. I’m not saying he’s for certain a completely cool dude, it just doesn’t seem fair to me that he’s somehow asked to bear the burden of his entire church’s misdeeds while others maybe aren’t.

I mean... honest question: So What? "I found a community that loves and accepts me in particular" doesn't mean it isn't a horrible toxic community. That sense of love and acceptance is used by everything from cult leaders to neo nazis. It is a powerful tool for assuring loyalty. Even if Chris Pratt sees that it doesn't mean he isn't still supporting a terrible organization. There is a reason people wanted to leave SA after Lowtax's reveal despite the fact he was an entirely absent landlord, because they couldn't justify continuing to support an organization run by a hateful wife-beater even if it had a community they were fond of and with good people in it.

That level of acceptance or welcome wouldn't be possible for a black lesbian. The fact that his church is supposedly somewhat against Divorce but overlooked his great and terrible sin is... well...  Note that I think Selena Gomez/Justin Bieber and whatever other celebs attend that church should get dragged as well.

No. The Church (as a worldwide organization) is responsible for terrible atrocities. However The Church is not the same as The Religion and should not be mistaken for that. Many local churches do not adhere to the The Church in the same way. My parents go to a church where the pastor is gay and married and runs an aid group for LGBTQ+ kids. It is possible to hold your own religion or have your own church without being forced to accept those things or even to speak out against them. Many religious individuals from all faiths do this because they genuinely believe in their religion, not the organization. In Chris Pratt's case he is actively supporting a specific church. (Technically they have three locations but that is a Megachurch for you.) This is much harder to divorce from The Religion because he is supporting a specific church that is actively horrible.
