You're allowed to dislike things without having to prove it originates directly from Satan's asshole. Encouraged, even.

He got so high off his own farts. over scripted, samey, commercial, baby’s first criticism overrelying on intertextuality. certainly not the “good works” his defenders claim it to be.

I find ScreenX really distracting because you’re in a movie theater surrounded by extra screens with more stuff on them, but you’re not supposed to look at them.

I'm sorry, I believe you misunderstood me. We don't know whether it could or could not, and there are interesting arguments about both, and that's what controversial means here.

Is a water simulation wet? And the issue is not one of abstract “modeling,” it is on the theoretical limits of computers as a technology. It’s as controversial as saying consciousness could be modeled by levers and pulleys. Not because god couldn’t do it, but because it’s a different system.

I just don't have any time to slag that dude off for anything that happened after 1981. If you can make American Graffiti Star Wars and Indiana jones? Then you're one of the greatest directors who ever lived and it doesn't matter what else you do.

No shot is from a woman’s perspective, no women are allowed to talk about anything but masculinity, men, sex, suffering, or romance. In that environment, it takes a LOT of work to argue the movie is really secretly feminist or anything like that. See ya around.

She a chance to say “yes, I hate you,” to his question, and instead they have her say “well, i’ve never tried it, because that’s not me.” No woman in the movie saves herself, all women in the movie are charitable and doting on Bear, and the movie plays into a ton of adolescent male sexual anxiety.

E.E. Murray @eemurray.bsky.social · 14/09/2026
If that's the argument than we'll need some evidence. Even Real Nikki, who is undoubtedly the victim of Bear's worst offenses, doesn't express any resentment, fear, or hatred of Bear. But if I were to agree with you, the movie's misogyny doesn't hinge on the "villain" question.

E.E. Murray @eemurray.bsky.social · 14/09/2026
I don't think we can say "the movie knows bear is the villain" without adhering close to the text. He's not treated remotely the way "villains" in horrors are. He's treated like a victim who who is too reluctant to seek outside help, like lots of horror protagonists.

E.E. Murray @eemurray.bsky.social · 14/09/2026
Wholeheartedly agree. It fails really basic stuff! I know a lot of people saying Bear is an incel or an out-and-out villain, and that’s just not in the text. All you have to do is look at the director’s other work.

I recall we hear in “A Proper Function of Government” that a few years ago (‘74-‘76) Burnside was SB1 and Caine was SB2, and Mike Judd was SB3, who fell victim to one of Lukara’s anthills.

I bet he was the same kind of firebrand, always thrashing against orders, wanting to act out and basically be a murderer, until he gets a little taste of it and backs off. I think something really awful must have happened with his d-ops for him to feel so protective of his sandbaggers.

He’s in a relationship with his therapist, who he began saw after after the death of his wife. That’s a vulnerable place, and he took a new name about it! I don’t think it’s actually too much in the text— it’s just another thing Wilde and Rogan’s characters don’t have the tools to observe/question.

I really dug the implications that he was being abused/taken advantage of, and that persona was affected.

Life has been a lot, so I have been a little. I offer you a redesign of my previous redesign of the Kuun Lan from Homeworld Cataclysm. I think it's a nice base ship, that would take well to lots of wild and wacky modules. Thanks to @scandinavian101.bsky.social for giving me the idea.

AAA games are just like that. it seems straightforward to me that “use web to go over there” should be one button, maybe two, and not a specter that haunts different keys depending on the game’s mood but that’s why I’m a writer and not a game designer

tried to play a Spider-Man video game with a mouse and keyboard the other day, got five minutes into the tutorial when I realized “shoot web to jump over there quickly” was four different buttons that changed depending on context sooo i stopped playing

the way the government ascertains neediness is a medium, and therefore less direct than us just going to an affordable nearby grocery store. short of mailing MREs to the living place of every american, opening affordable stores close to me seems pretty direct

Totally. As soon as the press about it hit the way it did, it meant Kathleen Kennedy’s protection could only go so far. They’s start seeing where they could cut budget, and keep pestering Gilroy et al until it became miserable. And who wants to be shackled to Star Wars anyhow?
