there's a lot of problems with the Phantom even just in the basic conceit of them being a white saviour but yeah, i can't pretend like i don't like a lot of it anyway. A Problematic Fave

the 90s movie is also an important part of the :sueme: canon

And also a surprisingly amount of exposed boobs:


as someone who just read the American newspaper strips growing up and only really started reading the local reprints/translations of the European stories this last year or two i was pretty surprised by the non-zero amount of boobs, yeah

Imo if you're watch sci-fi from the 60s/70s you should also watch the original mobile suit gundam

And make sure you watch the full darn series instead of being one of those idiots who watches the compilation movies. The show is of its time but it's all good, drat it

Gundam doesn't even have the excuse of being entirely reanimated gorgeously the way Do You Remember Love does while cutting the substance out of Macross. It's just doing it to lazily watch less

I assume the compilation movies cut out the vitally important quest for salt

How will you know the true cost of war if you don't see the child soldiers struggle for sodium?

(Even the current dvd releases of the series cut out the salt episode lol)

I assume that most of the Disney main characters, being monarchs, would abstain from voting to avoid appearing like they were affecting the political process

(Lest they lose their grifty jobs and get the guillotine)

Movie studios trying to ground superheroes with the modern world is a big loving mistake.

Superheroes should be fighting warlords on Mars or robot armies from another timeline.

Trying to make something of political commentary falls on its face because it's either a wank of military pride or flies over everyone's heads as they see the lasers and slo-mo punches.

the only good superheroes are Golden Age/New 52 Superman, the Doom Patrol, and Squirrel Girl

so in wonder woman 84 the character of barbara wishes to be like diana and gets all her powers and stuff right. before this, some dude attempts to rape her in the park and wonder woman just kinda knocks him over and they leave. later, once she has the powers, the guy tries it again and she kicks the loving poo poo out of him. and the movie makes this seem like its her dark turn. i gotta question why the movie that was sold as female empowerment is telling us that injuring an attempted rapist is a bad thing

also the movie is a giant steaming pile of poo poo lol

loving gross

Can't wait for Patty Jenkin's 'Rogue Squadron' where Rogue Squadron deploys Y-Wings to bomb Space Palestine for a good cause.

the whole announcement video was her talking about being inspired by her Vietnam vet pilot father, so bombing innocent civilians was baked into the premise already

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

If you're really worried about an actors politics, why arent you going after Pratt as well? He is a little chuddy as well and doesn't hide it, though much quieter than Gina Carano.

Chud Star Trek fans confuse the gently caress out of me, what about the Federation to you says Right Wing politics

There's a similar thing with Dr. Who where the main character is a revolutionary bohemian who leaves the aristocracy to explore the universe and agitate against the oppressive power structures they come across but somehow there's a whole conservative element amongst the fan base

The punchman movie having a release with more melanin in it isn't important politically or whatever but the workers who were abused by the racist sex pest replacement director and had all their labor removed from the finished product receiving some vindication by having their work restored seems like a good thing to me unless your idea of worker stops at "dude receiving his first acting credit on this film"
