Title: Hollywood Culture
Post by: Michael Hardner on March 31, 2022, 08:35:51 am
Kim Kardashian in love
Pete Davison in lust

Strangely, I can relate to the "lust vs love" question.  But I don't have an answer as to what to do, what is what or... anything

When your idols are colluding with the enemy and engaging in koke-fueled orgies, it's important to project your disgust onto others.

This is how this went:

Ariana Grande:  Pete I have an ugly white monkey fetish let's date.
Pete: ok

Kim:  I need the latest fashion accessory.  Pete dated Ariana and is the hot toy of the town, I need to date him.
Pete: ok

So basically ugly annoying monkey dude is the luckiest dude in the world.

ALL OF THE DIALOGUE BETWEEN WOMEN/GIRLS IN LORD OF THE RINGS - FULL TRILOGY - SPLICED INTO ONE FAST MOVIE

ALL OF THE DIALOGUE BETWEEN WOMEN/GIRLS IN LORD OF THE RINGS - FULL TRILOGY - SPLICED INTO ONE FAST MOVIE



The main characters in the LOTR novels, and carried over into the movie, weren’t women.  But then again, most of them weren’t human either. 

Arwen and Eowyn were featured more prominently in the movies than the books. 

I suppose they could have changed some of the main characters into women….   But I think the backlash from fans of the novels may have been an issue for the films if they did that.

Foundation (series based on novels by Isaac Asimov) did that, but those novels don’t have nearly the following as LOTR does.  And it certainly didn’t hurt the TV adaptation to change the main character’s gender.  The actors in Foundation are all terrific! 

Should there have been a certain percentage of dialogue in the films that would have satisfied your sensibilities?  40%?  50%?  Should they have changed the main characters to be more women?

Who’s the one that used ALL CAPS in their post?

I’m trying to have a discussion, but if you’d rather post a video and run (similar to your criticism of Shady debating with memes/pictures), then OK.

IDK your reply indicated that it was maybe a political statement about gender representation.

I thought MH was commenting on that, given his post in this topic.  If not, then all is well.

LOTR was written 70 years ago and isn't woke and therefore evil.

Tolkien is the real bad guy here, not Sauron.

People aren't offended by LOTR and its femaleness?  The writers of the films certainly were.

extremely weird stuff. (https://www.vice.com/en/article/3ab3yk/daily-wire-amber-heard-johnny-depp)

Quote
The Daily Wire spent tens of thousands of dollars promoting misleading news about the Johnny Depp and Amber Heard trial on social media, the Citizens and VICE World News can reveal.

The conservative outlet, founded by Ben Shapiro, is currently the second most popular news publisher on Facebook. It has so far spent between $35,000 and $47,000 on Facebook and Instagram ads promoting articles about the trial, eliciting some four million impressions.


Tapping that incel-to-fash pipeline.

I've gone to the cinema to see Marx Brothers, Chaplin and Keaton.

They're all amazing.

I have seen others too, like WC Fields, and minor stars of the era.
