2020 ruled because it was the year all of humanity rose up and in one clear voice we all told celebrities "SHUT THE gently caress UP, YOU AREN'T HELPING".

Thanks, noted child killer Gal Gadot.

I like how they had an oil tycoon in Egypt a country that ranks between India and Vietnam in oil reserves and only five or six spots above the UK.

I think Netflix are gonna be absolutely wrecked once Disney+ gets all the Fox 18+ stuff. I have both and Netflix’s selection just gets worse and worse each month. There’s no point investing time in their originals as 90% of them get cancelled after two seasons.

Believe Avatar cuts out the head tendril loving scene or edits it significantly. Not that I'm interested in that movie but if they do it there they can do it anywhere.

Agreed. But it’s also worth noting that finding stuff on Netflix is garbage.

I bet you’d find that most people only find stuff that’s right at the top, or through recommendations from other people.

I like how Netflix lies about how many people are watching their original content in a desperate attempt to keep people on.

I genuinely don't understand what you're thinking here. Do you just think any Chinese person is an offensive stereotype like a sassy black woman or a flamboyant gay man?

Refusing to enjoy 7-20 hours of entertainment because it's not enough seems like a weird value judgment to me.

Goons consistently considering movies that made hundreds of millions of dollars and spawned multiple sequels to be flops because they never entered their specific entertainment bubble makes me think that maybe you're just not as good at gauging what is popular as you think you are.
