  1.  @loganscott814  "there's a difference between sex and gender" Yes. Exactly. Sex is a biological fact. Gender is just made up. The former is fact. The latter is feelings.

  2. Hollywood is the most hermetically sealed ideological echo-chamber on the planet - and it's now required for the writers of woke and failing shows to tell their audience to stop watching and double down on what's destroying it. And like everything else in that unpleasant world - everyone has to fall in line, or be blacklisted.

  3. May you lose money on a scale no film studio before you could ever conceive of Lucas Film. You deserve it for the malicious way you've ruined everything you had that people once loved.

  4. I wish I could say I thought Drinker was being paranoid there - but I can very easily see it happening. They've already tried to remove Gone With The Wind, then had to settle for forcing people to watch a woke re-education lecture beforehand. It stinks of a deeply sinister agenda to replace and erase the past. Perhaps to send a message that we too are replaceable and erasable.

  5. I can't stop them shitting all over beautiful things - but they can't make me watch them do it.

  6.  UnitedStatesofAmerica1984  "that'll trigger 95% of Drinker's fanbase" Have you seen the like count on this comment? What is wrong with you?

  7. Disney - "We are delighted to announce Kathleen's replacement: Joy Reid!"

  8. Critical Drinker slamming modern Hollywood is vastly more entertaining than modern Hollywood is.

  9. Hollywood is like a drug addict - they know woke is killing them, but they just can't stop doubling down.

  10. So what? Yes there's a lot of mindless sheep out there. Aren't there? "Electricsheep". With a sheep avatar. . . . . . .

  11. ​ @electricsheep1984  When everyone you meet keeps telling you the same thing - maybe you should consider they might be right.

  12. Feminism killed western culture.

  13. Wokness is like the dark gods of the warp - you can't let "just a bit" in: you keep them out entirely, or succumb to the darkness.

  14. Nuclear weapons haven't killed anyone since 1945. Feminism on the other hand. . . . . . .

  15. I really hope the internet remembers who these people are in a few years when they're trying to pretend they were never part of this movement.

  16. It's going to be a fascinating study for future historians to analyse why a society with collapsing birth rates was so desperate to demonize motherhood.

  17. "I don't think I'm the target audience for marvel anymore" They've made it very clear we're not the target market - which is entirely up to them, but they don't get to whine when we lose interest.

  18. If Marvel wanted to shake up the MCU: this is how they could do it - make something low-key, grounded, realist and understated. But I guess all the 12 year olds in China probably wouldn't go for that.

  19. It's shows how much of a strangle hold woke ideology has on mainstream Hollywood that none of them were willing to make a film about something so bursting with comedy potential.

  20.  @MegamanXfan21xx  Apparently the horrible thing doesn't actually happen - according to the people who loved "Cuties" and covered up Epstein's client logs.

  21. "This isn't about good or evil: this is just about power" Wow - these people really are straight-up telling us their world view aren't they?

  22. Wanda sounds like an awful lot of brainless people I've tried to debate over the years - they end up winning the argument because what they're saying is SO mind-bendingly stupid, it would take months to explain why it's invalid.

  23. Yet more cultural appropriation of European heritage. Yet another beloved classic hideously mutilated and shat on by the woke cult. Get on the high-seas and download your childhood favourites now - before Disney deletes the originals and only allows you to have the "improved" version.

  24. So. . . . . .is everyone in the whole galaxy a strong independent girl-boss now?

  25. TBH that's kind of how a lot of developed economies are going. The men don't want to do anything because they know the society despises them, so they just adopt a very minimalist life and/or live off someone else: and do nothing.

  26. Drinker's videos have been so much more entertaining than most of what he's reviewed.

  27. Isn't it interesting how the messages of modern entertainment - selfishness, entitlement, childlessness, hedonism, self-obsession and contempt for all that came before you: perfectly mirror the values of the woke liberal elites and further their war on the west? Interesting coincidence. . . . . . .

  28. Wait - the character in Ironheart is called "Ri-Ri"? As in "REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!"? It's beyond parody at this point.

  29. You can almost hear the Drinker sharpening his knives. anxious to get stuck into this one. . . . . . . . .

  30. Feminists like to moan about how women supposedly used to be portrayed in Hollywood - but can anyone think of any film, from any era, that was as utterly vile and hateful towards women as this is towards men? I have never seen women subjected to this degree of indiscriminate loathing in any form of media, ever.

  31.  @rolfknappmann  Jackson's made some great films - but didn't he also make a lot of really bad, schlocky zombie movies in his day?

  32.  @jamstonjulian6947  Yup.

  33. She really was taken outback by the studio's PR team and worked over with the "this is what you say and don't say" bat wasn't she?

  34. If you look up "cultural decline" in the dictionary - there's that publicity photo they put out for this movie.

  35. "For some reason people are going nuts over this movie" Identity politics. That's why all the establishment critics have to praise it to the rafters.

  36. "at how men viewed woman for the last 10,000 years" Bullshit. Women have always been respected as mothers, wives and as the moral conscience of society. It's true no one over the last 10,000 years was stupid enough to try to make them do the role of men - because as our society has shown. they're not very good at being men. Just as men are really bad at being women. The psychopathic hatred that feminists have for men, comes from entitlement and narcissism: not oppression.

  37. It's also pretty gross that an entertainment industry that constantly preaches about cultural appropriation - took East European folklore and legend, and shit all over them to push their wretched ideology.

  38. They're signalling their allegiance to the global ruling elites - they couldn't care less what plebs like you and me think.

  39. It's amazing how much she kinda sounds like Tony Montana refusing to leave the mansions even as the enemy close in from all sides.

  40. A film critic critiquing a film that is critical of overly critical critics. This is critic-ception.

  41. It says a lot about the state of modern cinema that her narrative arc is purely self serving and vain-glorious. Not about service to others.

  42.  @TheLawliet10  Both are products of European folklore - and therefore deserve the same basic respect as the folklore of other cultures. That includes being portrayed by people from those cultures. Should an adaptation of "Romance Of the Three Kingdoms" have a "diverse", non-Chinese cast?

  43. Thing is there's so many people saving me the price of a movie ticket, I'm starting to long for a few more moments where someone makes me want to buy a movie ticket.

  44. I get a lot of stick for saying this - but western civilisation is much worse than it was 30 years ago. The only things that are better are technological, not cultural.

  45. When I heard about this, I suspected there would be spiteful internal studio politics at the bottom of all this.

  46. It's the same pattern as the MSM spending 20 years gleefully taunting white Americans with their impending demographic demise, and then howling about "racist conspiracy theories" when Tucker Carlson observes the same phenomenon. There's no such thing as objective truth you see - the only truth is power.

  47. I never really got the hate for Ghostbusters 2: I enjoyed it as a kid and I enjoyed it as an adult, and as a double bill with the first one, it makes for a great afternoon.

  48. There's a good reason why for most of history, acting was looked down on as a profession. Anything for attention.

  49. So it turns out the rich white guy actually STOLE everything from a strong, smart woman of colour who really invented everything? Oh Hollywood - you're so subtle with your political messages.

  50. They could have used this as a chance to do something really grounded and down to earth - a grounded, human protagonist with no physical powers who has to rely on guts, guile and occasional glimpses of the future: to fight down to earth criminals.
