Good look for Disney to not say poo poo about her being a transphobe while they still had episodes featuring her that they wanted people to sub to watch and only doing poo poo when she's both moved beyond that and not part of a show they want people watching rn

i used to watch are you being served on pbs as a kid at my grandparents house with no cable and i only just now realized the entire joke of that show was they constantly spoke in double entendres

i thought it was funny because all the characters delivered their lines in a ridiculous exaggerated way and im wondering how much of that was just their having british accents

70 years of TV history proves that people want to watch the same poo poo over and over and over again

Put that manduhlorian in the new town and have a bad guy be like a cyber railroad barron who wants to bulldoze the local alien orphanage

A crux of the spaghetti western is the tension between the coming of civilization to the frontier and the loss of freedom and moral clarity that entails

Mandolorkpian can turn that on its head since the Empire is receeding and a mandrolotrian shaped hole is left behind

A Brit comedian once quipped that originally the entrendres were a subtext, now they're a supertext. As in, when they say "pussy", you suspect it might mean "cat".

I mean he had a whole series going in on libs for backing the financial sector that utilizes the height of computational progress to hand-wave economic growth despite decades of hollowing out the middle class

Given how broad in scope his documentaries are, oversimplifying some events is probably unavoidable. Seems like he was playing a long game here by setting up various liberal idealist solutions to crises throughout the 20th century only to knock them down later in the series. Most of his documentaries I've seen have that Mark Fisher capitalist realism quality where the core message is that nobody has a compelling vision of the future. What I like most about Curtis are his montages. He gets up there with Kubrick in trying to convey the totality of national and global systems of control in a visual medium.
