Saw VI is good. The only truly bad ones are VII and Jigsaw imo. Even V's got its moments.

Clip-On Fedora posted:Did any of you ever watch The Sensitive Male episode of Johnny Bravo from back in the day? It's not like his breakout work was about how strong and cool women are...when they are repeatedly chewed up by the world, broken and hollowed out until they are a shadow of their former selves, sobbing in the rain.

Man I miss Johnny Bravo, he was a meathead horndog but they did it without making him feel creepy or horrible as much as I remember, Johnny was on the himbo game ahead of the game.

It helped that he was always proven to be in the wrong and thoroughly rejected. You were not supposed to think what he did and said was good or correct, except that he loved his mom. The occasional episode where he learned a lesson in the end and came away better for it (not that it ever stuck because it was an episodic cartoon of course) were usually some of the best they had as opposed to the ones where just got thrown into a trash can because he belonged there.

The episode where Johnny Bravo dates a werwolf and young me was like "what's the problem? She seems cool" Johnny tried to make the most of it.

This conversation made my brain go "did Johnny Bravo date a deer or am I losing my mind?". It was an antelope and apparently the episode was written by Seth Mcfarland.

Terrible Opinions posted:Yes and the only reason anyone cared was if they already liked his media. People in positions of power get away with being serial abusers period, and any personal beliefs broadcast by their pr team has no real impact on that. I'm specifically objecting to this bit idk friend. i agree its not fully that, but i think there was a time before 2016 that people were open at using that as an excuse as long as they were openly loud allies, to an extent its understandable, Gamegate shitshow was still on going and you never knew if stuff was true or just bullshit made up by those assholes. but on your point about power, farci is lovely movie critic who screamed about how woke and poo poo he was, it was his whole thing. burch was sad weird hack who became a weird reply person on twitter to look as progressive as possible, and was also a point of mockery because of his failed personal life and people only sorta abandoned him when he basicaly talked a ton of poo poo about zoe quinn to some rear end in a top hat who leaked it and then he reanacted an flaggelete on twitter to "provae" how sorry he was. if anyone can be burned by meetoo accusation, it was that sad piece poo poo. instead that got ignored and burch only got burned because he was "quietly" removed from riot games which is sexpest heaven. yeah. this. this is what i was remembering.

A lot of what Joss Whedon did reminds me a lot of what last year what happened in wrestling with David Starr who is also a giant monster who was able to skate by because he would say the right words about being a leftist and wanting to push for unionization. (Though it should be stressed lovely people like that can absolutely have politics you agree with) In lighter stuff Binging with Babish is so nervous doing this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ihS8__strtM

He wrote a whole bunch on the show, pre Family Guy. The "Adam West" "character" on FG is basically written exactly the same as in his JB episode, no coincidence. Around that time Seth also had some one-off short on Cartoon Network that was basically the FG prototype with a taking dog that sounded exactly like Brian.

Farci in particular had his sexual assault stuff constantly shouted down not because of how "oh we must defend the feminist man" but because of standard misogynist poo poo about his accuser being "crazy". And even to this day people go "oh he was a sex pest" not "he directly sexually assaulted women", even though the latter is the truth. For the power thing it's power from their employers who are universally very stupid wrt what actually makes money. The companies these guys worked for thought they made them money, because they happened to be in the room when money was made. Burch wrote for Borderlands and he's the name I recognize thus he must be why Borderlands made so much money the businessmen logic goes.

Terrible Opinions posted:Please tell me how this is any different from the times this exact same thing has happened to other differently political dudes in entertainment? No one defended Burch, everyone thought he was a creeper. But the companies don't care and there are no legal consequence because there never are. It feels like you're just pretending there is something different about the very standard abusers getting away with poo poo because they annoyed you on twitter. very true. also gearbox is owned by a cokehead who brought flash drives full of porn to work so its probably not a great working enviroment in general.

Like really the big one to me is that we still have Polanski defenders, even from people using their real name with real careers. Which is kinda proof to me that if you make media people like there is no limit to what they'll try to cover for you.

I think it was a clip of the View that went around where some of them defended Polanski and the crowd went wild, which solidified that daytime talk show audiences would cheer at anything if the host loudly supported it.

I find a lot of Polanski defenders think he did statutory rape and then the judge 'screwed him over', not realizing that statutory was the plea deal. Which is still not great!

"BUT SHE FORGAVE HIM!" Cool, but gonna go out on a limb here and say that rapists still deserve no forgiveness from any wider sources. You can steal or rob because you're hungry or in abject poverty. You can kill for understandable, if not acceptable causes. Most crimes can have a lot of grey to them, rape ain't ever one, there's no silver lining to it ever, there's no spurring moment of actual need, it's pure victimization for power/gratification.

Yardbomb posted:"BUT SHE FORGAVE HIM!" She also forgave him, I think, because Samantha Geimer was known for decades as being the girl the famous man raped. It made sense for her to eventually draw a line under it and try and move on. POLANSKI: WANTED AND DESIRED has a lot to answer for. Since it gave people the idea that the real story isn't that Polanski raped someone, it's that Polanski was the victim of an overzealous judge.

Is Extra Credits still bad? Yes, yes they are. This made me laugh, though. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ymUEPKTEQaQ At least way back when Jeff did the helium voice it just sounded like a normal guy on helium while this newer guy (I don't know how new I stopped watching years ago and this was in my recommendeds) sounds like a broken word SpongeBob meme.
