    There has been some movement right byt not much. Only a couple of percentage point with BLM giving the dems a boost. But really the GOP only needs to have a soild 15 to 20 percent of the Black vote and then a lot of safe blue seats trun purple. So there is a lot of work on the left to paint...

    It also looks like a lot of the Woke Prestige shows are going away. Not all but look at Prime and HBO to see the start of the trend. While Prime has the Lord of the Rings mess some of their biggest hits where Jack Ryan, Reacher and Terminal List. All shows that the woke crowd hated but audiences...

    I know I already listed a bunch of reasons that Bros is floping at the Blockoffice. But a friend pointed out one I missed. Bros is an r rated rom-com. There is a reasons that most movies go for PG-13 ratings. G and PG are hard to get and most of time only needed for young kid movies. But the...

    Did not know that but doesn't surpise me. It also did not help that Horror movie season is upon us so movies like Simle are going to dominate for the next month.

    Baseball has never recovered from the strikes in the 1990s. Not to mention the ever extending season inculding spring training being almost as long as the NFL whole season you can see why baseball is fading.

    It's a CBR article. A junk site that does lists and calls anything from the before 2015 problematic that didn't age well. Basically ignore any site that uses those words while mocking anyone that uses them. Back before I left SB pressing people that used those words led to pages of them never...

    I mean the reason behind Netflix doing this is not just them going Woke but also their love of canceling every good show after one season. But having a lower price or a free tier with ads is just good business sense. I personally watch Crunchyroll for free with ads becasue I don't watch...

    Wow just wow. They turned her into blue haired killing machine that targets people because their great great great great grandfather may have done something bad. This is the type of story a 13 old emo writes thinking they great. The fact some made this into a play is just sad and proves how...

    I mean is anyone really surprised? The only reason they even do the little bit they do is so they avoid articles about them being evil in the NYT and tons of left leaning internet news sites. So they change a few logos and move on while the slackvists think they made real change because they...

    I watched the frist few episodes. It is not bad but is mainly forgettable. The acting is ok and special effect are decent even if the CGI scenes are repeated to much. But the plot line is standard Sci-Fi rebuilding a destroyed Earth by destroying a different place. Overall I would not recommend...

    While I see the frist one especially with how the evil witch is only evil because evil traditional values and men. You also have a point with how women I recent Blockbusters have been portrayed. I also noticed it has been happening with LGBT characters too. Any major flaws or making them a...

    So I am here to complain about anthor movie. The live action version of Mulan. While I know Diseny has taken some flak for making everything a live action in general I have enjoyed them. Aladdin was decent even with Will Smith not living up to Robbin Willaims. But really those are huge shoes to...

    The big that really got me was after the main character confessed to casting the love spell the rest of them talked about consent and how she was wrong. Which is true snice a love spell is just like drugging a women at a bar. But the thing is that they didn't care that they all did the same...

    So I was one a flight this last weekend and the movie choices where general6older movies I did want to watch again. But I saw Craft Legacy. So frist off this is a sequel to the 1996 movie the Craft. The main plot of the old movie is that a bunch outcasts at a reglious school band together and...

    Mainly because it is not about having a character with an interesting background or even exploring the Issue of something like bullying or racial tensions. The recent Social Justice Warriors push is just a checklist and is actually a very shallow movement. Just like Hollywood of the 90's used...

    So I watch the Rookie. It is a cop drama with Nathan Fillion as the main charater. The main hook was Fillion having a mid life crisis and becoming LAPD's oldest rookie. Pre-pandemic they ended a season with a mentor being a mole and framing Nathan. Overall they mixed humor and action to make a...

    Ya I saw that. Overall while some of the books made into decent if low budget adaptions and Good Omens was true to the books this was not to be. Frist off it is a lot bigger undertaking. This means you need a studio will to spend a lot of money. You also need a back stage staff of writers and...

    CBR is not where you go for any real information. They just make stupid lists to get clicks. They pop up in my feed all the times with 10 best moments, or ten things that Lily in How I Met Your Mother couldn't do today. Really most of those sites are just Gawker lite sites that spam lists...

    Just like in the Harry Potter books this just comes across as pandering. Really even ten years ago having Velma being written gay would not have raised eyebrows. At the time the hit show was Glee which was all about feeling good while being werid or a minority. But they didn't becasue not...
