Avatar loving owned, Cameron basically invented a whole new way of making 3D movies that blew everything else out of the water, and nobody's been able to emulate it since despite trillion dollar budgets, lol. Also as certain podcast said, it was the one time in American history the American audiences stood up and cheered as the movie showed them Vietcong brutally eviscerating US troops.

Again, as he himself says, a generic underdogs vs. empire archetype riffing on the cultural tone of the time, vs. biting literal (not figurative) USMC troopers in half in the middle of the post 9/11 fetishization of all things military.

colonelwest posted:Cameron has that stereotypical Boomer anti-Vietnam-war activist conception and hatred of the military. He’s not necessarily wrong about the military-industrial complex, but he goes about it in such a childish, dated and reductionist way. His conception of politics never advanced beyond the early 70’s. Indeed, we should be actively finding novel, innovative ways to humiliate the military and brutally dismember their cultural effigies to show our contempt, we shouldn't be tied to the old ways. Sadly, nobody's willing to pick up the torch.

Listen, the point is that Lucas made people watch an abstract representation of an empire getting their rear end kicked in an abstract sanitized colonial war, while the superior film, Avatar, made the audience watch as their neighbor's son Jimmy who shipped to Afghanistan had his limbs torn off by a pterodactyl.

LanceHunter posted:Weird. The crazy director/writer/star seemed to embrace the episode. I see the copyright claim is from "ONErpm Light". ONErmp seems to be a music distribution service. And sure enough, her music is released there. How a music claim happened this late in the game instead of being an auto-flag is perplexing. I'm confident the "music distribution service" is one guy in a dirty living room who manually files claims if he finds something to take down.

Gutcruncher posted:“We should edit art 25 years later as opinions change” is still bullshit whether it’s a pointless cameo in a disposable comedy or a major scene in a timeless classic. Actually more stupid cultural bullshit should be chaotically defaced by the very forces that gave them birth as a symptom of their desperate struggle to maintain the legitimacy of the status quo during the accelerating death spiral of capitalism, it's cool, it's hilarious, and more artistic and poignant than the worthless, fetid media commodities they are trying to purge ever could hope to be. steinrokkan fucked around with this message at 03:18 on Jan 17, 2021 |

I noped out of the books with Order of Phoenix when the magic terrorists started blowing up bridges and I realized that, oh god, JK Rowling is about to get Politically Relevant on this bitch and the rest of the series is gonna be nothing but her deranged political manifesto hiding behind a veneer of YA fiction.

hard counter posted:i think people are reading way too much into the politics of harry potter, at least in so far as the existence of a secret wizarding society is definitely more of a conceit to transplant most of our world into that setting because in real life nobody has supernatural powers so the only way the two ideas could co-exist in a single piece of fiction, even in the mind of a child, is if people w/supernatural powers lived in secrecy with some kind of colossal ruse maintaining the illusion that they don't, it's a simple idea that works well with kids By the second half of the series the pretense of "this is just for kids" had been fully abandoned and Rowling was writing from her personal perspective as a stunted but comfortable drooling adult with a delusion that mindlessly giving up on change and embracing the status quo was mature politics, for fellow stunted drooling adults with the same anti-intellectual tendencies.

It's really interesting that Dumbledore provided full material and institutional support to the leaders of at least two Nazi coup attempts in their effort to destroy democracy and genocide all humans, and then he was each time magic-Paperclipped back into serving the supposedly liberal status quo regime while all the traces linking him to the magic-Nazis were systematically erased and Dumbledore was installed as the head of a youth paramilitary training and brainwashing camp posing as a "magic school" that would provide the government with elite secret police personnel and other agents with which the magic-state would violently suppress all dissenters and wage psychological warfare on its own population and where the teachers were Dumbledore's fellow ex-Nazi refugees with scrubbed personal records and half the students came from Nazi families evading arrest and openly conspiring to use the training provided by
