Wow! The NEW (Hype!) TiVo Can Do So Much! - Part 6

[Black Narcissus]

You wanna know what the sad thing is? The actor that looks the most like Bruce Wayne in the comics is... probably that porn actor a troll once posted here months ago.

Reeves needs to hurry up and cast the next Batman. Batman forum is running out of ideas. lol

 

[Kane52630]

At this point... it's just kinda impressive at the lengths white male trolls can go to just to be petty.

I just don't get who has the energy to be so ugly and petty
like that s**t takes thought and effort

You can't go around targeting a specific demographic repeatedly and expect nothing to happen. Brie should have known better. I wasn't personally offended by anything she said, but she does come off as arrogant and disrespectful with some of the things she says.

Even if you believe that...doesn't make it any less pathetic. Bunch of thin skinned losers.

Arrogant and disrespectful to WHOM? She never said she hates white men, she never said white men cant be movie critics, she literally just said she wants more diversity among film critics! Why is that disrespectful? How is that disrespectful to anybody? And how the heck does it come off as “arrogant” of all things? I am a white male: for some reason, I don’t have this problem with Brie Larson.

She didn't target anybody. You are mistaken.
It's been discussed extensively. If you don't want to google it then search prior pages right here.

I prefer to call them morons, but that is just me.

Wrong

I'm not just talking about that, but all her SJW agenda. Case point:

"This guy watched me lift something really heavy, and he went, ‘Wow, I can’t even lift that!’ As if he were the epitome of health… I said, ‘Yeah, I guess you’re going to have to rethink your gender norms.’"

Or the TSA agent story. Honestly she strikes me as arrogant and disrespectful and I think she goes a step too far with her SJW ideology. But that's just me. If you guys think she's a sweetheart I'm OK with that. We all have different perceptions.

I know what she said and I stand by my post.

The moment I read the words “SJW agenda” I know it’s not even worth arguing about this. You’re entitled to your opinion. But this is not a political thread.

Man, daily life must be so dull for some folks that they resort to being upset or offended by what an actor said.

Feel free to explain your point.

My post wasn't about politics but her behaviour. But yeah, it's better to focus on the movie.

Discussion about the so called “SJW agenda” quickly turns into political debate, so you’re not really fooling me. And you are currently encouraging this debate to go forward.

Maybe. But perhaps the same could be said about fanboys who inflate scores, or who call other people names because they criticize the movies they support. There are many behaviours in the CBM community that can be labelled as pathetic.

I admire and respect the love and stance for Brie in this thread/forum but @Claude_Speed is right regarding some of her rhetoric. You can't speak the way she does (at times) against certain groups of poeple and not expect some response.

You can pretend there's nothing to see here but there's a reason certain groups of people are unhappy. Look at it objectively from a neutral POV without calling anyone incels or SJW or whatever. After all Wonder Woman/Gal didn't recieve the same treatment.

You don't know that since you don't know me. I don't even care about her social/political ideologies. I'm OK with anyone being feminist or supporting diversity. It's the way she conducts herself what I'm talking about. You don't want to have an argument, then it's simple, do not reply.

lol "the way she conducts herself"

what a croc

Exactly.

She could have chosen her words more carefully. If she really wanted diversity then she could have just asked for it without saying that there's too much of something, or saying that she doesn't want a specific group of people criticizing her movies because it wasn't made for them.

All of the backlash could have been avoided.

Can we stick to talking about the actual movie and not some futile campaign that means nothing in the overall scheme of things?

 

[Black Narcissus]

Lawd. That Claude guy sure acts like someone who is offended for a person who doesn't care. Probably the type of dude who tells his sister or mom that they can't go out looking like that ( points at their normal looking clothes). lol

 

[I Am The Knight]

This Captain Marvel s*** is getting on my nerves.

 

[Kane52630]

Yeah but we have heard that about mcu villains before too, and is not always true.

I believe there is a clear bias from "critics" towards anything that is not the mcu, any superhero movie gets critiziced not because of its flaws, but because "they are not like the mcu". And review sites are irrelevant sadly, again, too much bias.
But yeah they kinda have picked sides, which is ridiculous of course, but you will rarely find any negative comment from "professional" critics of any mcu movie, even if the movie is bad, which is really odd... Audiences do the same thing actually, they already love a movie from the mcu that has not been released, and they hate anything else be it from fox, warner, or sony, unless of course that it fits with what they expect a superhero movie to be.

All this coming from the person who loves what Fox has done with their properties. You even called X3 a good movie-- sorry but based on your love of Fox's X-men in my eyes you have zero credibility. With that said u of course have a right to your opinion-- to me seem to have a bias too, but it's against the MCU and it comes across in your postings.

And your point is? How being a fan of the X-Men franchise (and for being the best and most consistent superhero franchise we got so far) makes my arguments irrelevant? X3 is a good movie by the way, the MCU wishes it had a movie as good as X3, instead they got Age of Ultron, Iron Man 3, Thor Ragnarok, both Ant-Man movies, Spiderman Homecoming, etc... disney is never gonna do something like what fox did, mark my words, they are more than probably not even gonna touch the subject of discrimination.
They are gonna make some kind of Avengers, a light tone random adventure movie with lots and lots and lots AND LOTS of jokes all the time. They dont even know how to handle Spiderman, even Sony with their Amazing movies did a better show than disney with Homecoming.
I dont have a bias against the MCU, i LOVE Marvel, i would have been very happy if they made good movies, that is all, but easily half of them are bad and even the good ones have lots of bad stuff in them. On the other hand, the good stuff in the X-Men movies overpowers the bad stuff.
I am not against the MCU, i am just tired of being dissapointed from their mistakes at this point, i am more indifferent than anything, so that is why after Captain Marvel and Endgame i am out, at least until Black Panther 2 and Doctor Strange 2. If they tone down the "comedy":

X3 is a good movie by the way, the MCU wishes it had a movie as good as X3,

This might be the dumbest take I have ever seen on SHH, and I've been posting here for almost 15 years...

Is there a stupidity threshold for getting banned? Never thought I would ever need to ask that, but damn.

Excuse me, do you signature suggest that Iron Man 3 is better than BvS? Just a thought.

Anyway, let me elaborate, here is a list of movies that are worse than X3, and overall bad movies:

-Iron Man 2
-Iron Man 3 - Terrible
-Guardians of the Galaxy
-Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2
-Thor Dark World, every scene in Earth (they are supposed to be comedic)
-Thor Ragnarok - Worst mcu movie and one of the worst superhero movies made so far
-Spiderman Homecoming
-Ant-Man
-Ant-Man & The Wasp
-Age of Ultron

I might be forgetting some more, but i repeat those are not just worse than X3 (i havent watched it in a while though, maybe it did not aged well, like the first Avengers movie) but they are Bad movies.

Edit: Just to clarify, X3 is not a great movie, i am not saying that, it is a decent, even good, movie with several great moments (and a great soundtrack), the stuff from my list is not even good, movies like Thor Ragnarok are even cringe worthy.

 

[MewMewTwo]

Wow, what a well thought, well articulated argument, you changed my mind!

 

[Donner]

 

[Ninjablade]

I haven't watched X3 in forever, but that's quite the take.

 

[Donner]

Hey, some years ago anybody would have been called a "conspiracy theorist" (what a dumb term) if you said that politics and entertainment industries are filled with pedophiles, despite being true. Now it has been proven and more information comes out everyday... Point is, you never know, there is a lot of "conspiracy" videos in youtube with really good information (some crazy BS too of course) that if you keep your mind open will make you think, and we should always question the official narrative of everything. And hollywood is a demonic propaganda machine anyway, so...

Come on, the USA is the world capital of propaganda, and hollywood is nothing else than pure propagandistic brainwashing movies, is hard to explain if you dont know it already. Every movie that they make as some kind of agenda behind it and fills your mind with subliminal messages, for example: a movie like Home Alone is propaganda, Kevin is the USA, and the two thiefs are foreign countries. And they make lots and lots of satanic crap, i know is hard to believe, because we are being brainwashed since the day we are born, but is there. Do you think they are just mindless entertainment? Nop, it goes deeper than that. That does not mean that we cannot enjoy them, but we have to know what we are consuming, otherwise we are falling into their spell. Though it might be harder to notice to someone who is from that country and culture, they are the main target after all.

The irony is strong. How can someone be so unaware of their own bias... whilst bemoaning other people's bias?

And let's be clear, the MCU EARNED this perceived "bias" by consistently producing enjoyable films. It's only natural for humans to favour something they have confidence in. That confidence comes from stability and consistency. Something Fox and Warners simply cannot manage.

 

[KRYPTON INC.]

Home Alone is satanic/pro-American propaganda?


...

...

...


We all have differing opinions about entertainment and since most of us are fans these debates get heated often because we have this deep seated emotional investment. So online where fans gather I get places like the Hype and it's mods leaning towards a high level of tolerance of opinions...

But FFS why can we not call a spade a spade when someone makes it pretty clear that they are unhinged or a credulous fool with the mental capacity of a child or both?

The person that thinks Home Alone is Satanic propaganda is not a person whose opinions on anything should be respected. That person is a fool or in need of psychiatric counseling.

Indeed allowing them to continue to have an outlet for their psychotic nonsense while penalizing those that call out their insanity and credulous idiocy isn't good for these people, this online community nor society in general.

 

[The Endless]

Who said Home Alone is satanic propaganda? Good Lord lol.

Edit: oops ignore that question. I see it now!

 

[MewMewTwo]

This one, for example, is so brief and on point and perfectly explained in less than 5 minutes that is impossible not to love the way it is done:

Or were you asking me about the movies? They are filled with layers of meaning, but you have to read between the lines.

The MCU earned nothing, half of the movies are bad, i made a list the other day if you want to check it out, the quality in the mcu is like throwing a dice, you can get a Winter Soldier, or a Thor Ragnarok (worst mcu movie so far and just awful as a movie all around).
If anything, the quality consistency of the MCU is highly inconsistent. And so is the continuity.
Not all of them are enjoyable, stuff like Iron Man 3 or both Ant-Man movies or Spiderman Homecoming or Age of Ultron are cringe worthy.
Warner sabotaged itself when they deformed BvS, SS and JL theatrical releases, they have no idea what they are doing and they improvise all the time, fair enough.
But fox? All the X-Men movies, the two trilogy they made from X-Men to X3 to First Class to Apocalypse, have been from good to great.
The only decent trilogy the mcu has is the Captain Americe one.
Is the best set of movies and the more consistent in quality, all three movies are good.

Please point out where i did say that Home Alone was satanic.
Nice way of subtly insulting me, by the way.

 

[MewMewTwo]

One more thing, "KRYPTON INC.", you dont know if what you and i are saying is true or not, so i kinda would really appreciate if you did not suggested something as exagerated as me having to be under psychiatric treatment. No beef though.

 

[I Am The Knight]

I thought this was about how all Hollywood women were actually transexuals

Everyone is free to have their own opinion.

But the general consensus is even the worst MCU movies are still at least average. None of them really hit the lows of Origins or the Last Stand.

Just go on any best of Comic Book Movie poll/ranking of either the genre or even strictly just X-Men and you'll usually see Origins or the Last Stand near the bottom.

Serves me right for casually dropping my brother's nonsense opinions in conversation and actually having someone believe it and encourage it.

Now I see where he got those ideas in the first place. The internet is a weird place.

 

[KRYPTON INC.]

It wasn't subtle. Your opinion is the opinion of a credulous child or someone with psychiatric problems. You said that the output of Hollywood was "demonic propaganda". Then stated Home Alone, a product of a Hollywood studio, was symbolic of American policy... So the conclusion is that Home Alone is Satanic pro-American propaganda.


Anyone with any seriousness suggesting that there is any weight to such an idea is point blank either a fool, mentally unwell or both. Their opinion on any and all things should be called into question as they have shown the judgement of a child or someone that needs to take medication to control psychotic episodes.

Such an opinion is worthy of mockery and contempt. It's deranged silliness. And frankly we are far too excusing of deranged silliness in this world.

Of course there are “cliques” on the Hype as there inevitably are in any large congregation of people, but the moderators do not moderate according to cliques.

From the Captain Marvel box office thread

It's why I think the official box office, while is no flop, just a decent return on investment, will be around Ant-Man's boxoffice. Anything over that, I am going to assume Disney is artificially inflating the box office for bragging rights. :/

What is reality anyway
