BioEnchanted posted:Why did that become a meme anyway? Is it just because Zendaya's stage name was as ridiculous as her character's name was in Smallfoot or was there more to it? White people think black people's names are funny, part XXXVII.

I really think G98’s big misstep is going all Jurassic Park with the baby Zillas in the third act. Why assume everyone wants to see that instead of just focusing the film on mommy G with the possibility of babies as a teaser at the end?

Ghost Leviathan posted:I still like the idea that creating and preserving life is specifically a Dark Side power, while becoming a ghost is a Light Side one. The Sith try to stave off death desperately while the Jedi transcend it. This is a great idea/theme that is also of course undermined by the sequel trilogy, where it is now a light side power to drain lifeforce from some people and give it to others.

All the “reporters” concerned about this are white. What sort of white person secretly records clubhouse conversations by black speakers in primarily black chatrooms about black issues in the hopes of getting black people in trouble? Freak behavior.

Why does the new alone kid have a British accent? I feel like that makes him much more unlikable to American audiences.

One More Fat Nerd posted:Also, haven't seen this in here yet, and uh, its definitely special. I know the main thing people are laughing about is the ridiculous name, but I hope this takes place in a world where all historical atrocities and horrors have been prevented already so the only thing to use time travel for is interpersonal drama.

Teriyaki Hairpiece posted:This is the only good part of Tenet. The people from the future hate us for their reasons, they are never fully explained, and they just loving hate us. They hate us because they’re environmentalists who care about the future world, Protagonist states that the future has no right to anything because they do not exist and every resource should be consumed by the present. All Nolan villains are conservative boogeymen: Islamic terrorists, anarchists, communists, and drug-addicted moms who care more about their next fix than their kids.

FlamingLiberal posted:This is not at all what they say in the movie. Wrong. Tenet posted:PROTAGONIST Later in that conversation Sator says: Tenet posted:SATOR Sator is a liberal who has learned about global warming or environmental destruction and become pessimistic and misanthropic due to it, ultimately planning for his own and human extinction. Protagonist argues that we owe no debt to the future, and that our consumption and waste were simply us looking after our own survival. The future faction, within the film, are not just genocidal but wrong: their plan cannot work because it didn’t by the time travel logic the movie establishes. The film is arguing that imposing a carbon tax will cost people their lives, quality of life, not achieve anything anyway, and is not our moral duty regardless.

Aglet56 posted:Did they actually imply this? How would this even work? You travel backwards in real time so presumably you couldn't go back any farther than 80 years or so from your starting point because you'd die of old age. Plus you'd need inverted oxygen (and presumably inverted food and inverted water) the entire time. This is not implied or said in the movie in any way, whatsoever. Your interpretation of why it is impossible is correct.
