They're both negative terms people attach to companies who make films but one is used by Nazis to complain that films aren't promoting fascism and the other is used by people who aren't Nazis to make a complaint that isn't about a lack of fascism so they're not really the same (in that one is bad)

Pirate Jet posted:“Woke washing” takes from “white washing,” which is a criticism of a group being too white. You wouldn’t criticize something for being too woke. That use of "white washing" is kind of a pun? Generally people use "white washing" to mean covering up something embarrassing, like the paint. That's why "woke washing" works, the woke is being used as a cover for inherently regressive ideas.

The best part for me is that you can literally play as Leto Joker in PUBG, they've got licensed character models for him and Harley that cost £25 each.

Cythereal posted:That's kind of the point of Thanos regarding Tony's character arc. Tony's known ever since Avengers that one day Thanos and his armies would come to Earth, and he was desperate for anything that might stop Thanos and save the world. That knowledge and PTSD from Avengers is what prompted Ultron, and the suit building spree in IM3. I can't even hold Tony recruiting Peter Parker against him, because when Thanos comes knocking he does not give a poo poo how old you are or how ready you don't feel you are, he is going to kill half the cosmos unless he is stopped. Tony Stark posted:I exist only to protect Earth from Thanos. That is the sole purpose for which I was born. And every action I take, no matter how violent or how cruel, is for the greater good of my people.

wyoming posted:I'd love to see Ayer's cut of Suicide Squad, like, it's a fun and awesome movie despite being butchered, however it'd be nice to see the proper version, Steppenwolf or no. I'd probably take Ayer's Suicide Squad cut over the Snyder JL cut, seeing as the latter's part one of three so you're stuck in the land of what-could-have-been either way, and Suicide Squad is so nearly there..

I unironically love the way it won't save the life of a man falling out of a building without scanning his barcode first, and I love the way the shot sets it up like he's perfectly willing to fry some regular joes to slow his descent.

There's nothing specific to Bardock that makes him disposed to think differently to the rest of the Saiyans, though. There's no reason he should be more or less suspicious of Frieza than the rest of them, in the way that Jor-el is a Kryptonian radical. Bardock just does.

Aces High posted:Ah yes, the golden days if YouTube when you opened 10 tabs to watch a movie and got then all pre-buffered. A combination of factors, partly not wanting people to fish completed copyright streams out of their cache driving innovation in streaming methods which didn't keep a full cache, party streaming sites not wanting to waste bandwidth sending you the full video if you weren't watching, and partly adaptive bitrate stuff which scales the quality up and down depending on the detected bandwidth and play rate - so you aren't necessarily recieving one complete file.

teagone posted:I've recently been saying that Stark and Pym have held back the human race in the MCU by not sharing their tech with the rest of the world. Their hubris is what makes Earth defenseless and vulnerable against greater threats. If they pooled and shared their knowledge with the greatest minds on the Earth, poo poo would probably be loving Stark Trek levels by now. The end of the world will continue to intervene to prevent the end of capitalism for as long as is necessary.
