Do they ever show an x-ray of wolverine's claws extended, because one thing that always bothered the pedantic part of my brain is that unless the claws are strongly anchored somewhere in the hands, the leverage would push the other end of the claws right out of his hand. They'd have to extend partway into his forearm to get any decent amount of leverage on anything he's trying to cut

Hodgepodge posted:Its had some weird effects. I now actively prefer porn where theres some actual flirting and sexual tension before they gently caress. rent a girlfriend did a really good job demonstrating how for a lot of guys horniness isnt just about a woman being hot or even her being an ideal archetype like its clear that over time the main character is attracted to the female lead and wants to spend time around her not because hes invested in the public kayfabe but because when she drops the mask she still treats him with respect and will even tell him to knock off the dumbassery if necessary the scene where he attempts to masturbate to pictures of his toxic ex and fails because he keeps flashing to memories of the female lead being emotionally supportive instead is to date the only scene ive ever seen in pop culture that accurately describes just how weird your headspace gets when youre masturbating

best Wolverine comic was when Garth Ennis wrote him in Punisher speaking with thick Canuckisms and ensured the artist drew him as short as possible

so im watching the stand and im just curious is there some kind of twist or is the story exactly as black and white as it looks i ask because niceguy.txt and cop killer are obviously coded as evil despite nice guy being the only character to show positive initiative in the wake of the apocalypse and cop killer being left to starve to death until darkman shows up this isnt amazing characterization but theyre still more interesting to watch than whoopis chosen five four of whom just guilelessly believe everything she says while the fifth one is depicted as naively wrongheaded for suggesting its kind of dumb for them to do stuff just because the magical negress tells them to

in the book at least, there also the ending in which flagg reincarnates in a racist depiction of precontact africa where the hapless black folks are powerless to resist his seduction

the new show's trashcan man is straight up offensive, too. like in the 90s miniseries he was a weirdo but matt frewer at least played him as a human being and not a screeching feral goblin

is this the thread where I can complain about an HBO show I'm only aware of because I saw this ad just now? https://twitter.com/generationonmax/status/1360393324645949443?s=20 Liberals presuppose that youth, especially LGBT youth, are all united by flamboyant fashion instead of united by joblessness, lack of education, and their parents dying needlessly from a global pandemic because they were forced to work. Black LGBT youth are humorous .gif dispensers... That is when they are not gunned down by fascist thugs that are sanctioned by the state to murder. Anyway thank you HBO for your commitment to diversity!!

that was a very good article and I feel guilty for not reading it when it was originally posted im trying to come up with a counterexample of a mainline film in the teens where the leads had good chemistry and all ive got is passengers which is interesting because chris pratt and jennifer lawrence dont have chemistry in any of their other film roles which suggests directorial influence rather than a dearth of acting talent is whats killing sexual chemistry at the movies not coincidentally passengers had an actual ethical conflict underlining the relationship which required them to emote at a larger range than coy middle school crush but ironically enough that exact same ethical conflict led to the movie getting savaged because dumbasses somehow interpreted the movie as being about how chris pratt is a wonderful perfect dude whose actions were morally unimpeachable

Aglet56 posted:i haven't seen the show, but all of that stuff happened in the book so i can't really blame the tv show too much The Green Mile is great, because it asks the important question "If a giant black man is found alone with two dead white girls, maybe he didn't murder them but was instead trying to use his magical healing powers to save them from dying, and maybe you shouldn't be so racist and assume otherwise?" Much like magic Anthony Hopkins bullying the bully for being gay/a transvestite/trans in Hearts in Atlantis, Stephen King movies are a force designed to bring us together. Interestingly, neither the bully nor anyone else questions why this weird old man knows all these things about the bully does when he's alone. Must be magic, right? Definitely magic.
