It’s too bad Christopher Plummer isn’t around anymore. I wanna replace Miles Teller with him so I never have to dare that douchey face again.

Alan Smithee posted:and if you didn’t have a reason to hate James corden yet I hate James Corden for many reasons, but the first and most visceral was when his late night show started up and he did some bullshit publicity event near Beverly and Fairfax that locked me in traffic for 45 minutes. In addition to being a talentless, two-faced company man and an abusive egotistical little poo poo, I will never loving forgive him for that and I see he's still engaging in the same fuckery.

Reading the article, James Corden is the one who came up for the idea of this particular Cinderella adaptation, which explains a lot too.

Movie theatres will be a thing as things calm down for a very brief moment until they get worse again. The perfect window

CharlestheHammer posted:I mean I would assume most Americans don’t know anything about Chinese politics, they just know square is good and that’s about it Yeah it was absolutely a case where they had no idea there were different factions and tendencies and agendas in play in the extremely complex transition from Maoist communism to Dengist state capitalism and he was perceived as defending Bad Authoritarian China. when he wasn’t, he’s a fucken Maoist he has no love for Deng, he was saying that the students, specifically, were not there protesting for “freedom” but for access to managerial jobs, and the violence was directed mostly at factory workers supporting the hardline communists. A rough American analogy would be the contrasting response to right wing anti lockdown protesters and BLM protestors

It's probably part of their contract with the military. Guys watching at home on their crappy tvs aren't gonna feel the need to sign up to go bomb China.

Not even in the military sense. A maverick is someone that enlisted and earned their commission in the field and classroom. McCain father just bought him a seat in Annapolis.

A nice enough guy interpersonally, just without any beliefs or convictions, and thus useful for people like Trump who wanted an affable prop to interact with on TV. Corden is well-understood to be faithless and abusive towards those working under him, and generally mean-spirited to fans the second cameras turn off. It's not surprising he'd advocate for pay cuts to his own writing staff, based on everything I've heard about his conduct on and off set. He's a dick.

Fallon was apparently cool with and/or helping Horatio Sanz groom a literal high schooler, so he and Corden are actually both big pieces of poo poo for different reasons.

As annoying as Corden is I ran across that old clip of him and Patrick Stewart arguing at the awards show and he actually comes off as likeable in that. Stewart seems nasty in it to me and I'm surprised Corden was willing to come off as unlikeable and argue back. I think it was before he was as famous in the US and had a bit more personality. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NIBUWqSTp90

Not great and I probably won't ever watch it or even think about it again but it once more made me think how everyone who complained about it being "the worst movie ever" probably hasn't watched any non-Disney movie in years. It did really make me laugh how Maisie Williams' mutant superpower was simply the fact that she's a werewolf.

From my understanding Boots is one of those people who has some hot takes and deactivates every few months. In the funny Twitter thread that got linked people were referencing recent stuff. Although I guess the most recent time he just got tired of fighting with people about how the US media was handling the little round of protests in Cuba.

The worse X-Men movies came out on time, so they were mostly in and out of the public consciousness relatively quickly.
