Jesus we're still doing this attempt to go after The Sound of freedom for the crime of existing and some weirdness because it's an anti trafficking film?

The full context of it (which makes it not OK but not half as skeevy as the headline says) is that according to the Vice article at the time he was posing as a buyer undercover and the seller pulled up the girls shirt exposing her breasts and suggested or implied the guy give them a feel to test the merchandise as such.

I can understand since I dislike Abby for being a psychopath. As such I don't feel much need to bring her muscles in a discussion.
It's where this always goes and what was being brought up by others before I started replying regarding it.


It's also telling that what they consider "ugly" is just anything they don't like. Like as someone who finds muscular women attractive the outrage about Abby I know what I like isn't what everyone likes but the freak out was genuinely baffling.

No, I looked at the previous posts
Points to the above quote.

Didn't look very fucking well did ya?

Update on the Ashton and Mila thing...


Don't know why embeds never show up for me...

Anyways, apparently both Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis have stepped down from the board of Thorn, an anti-child sex abuse foundation that Kutcher founded in 2009.
Yeah so apparently Masterson just got 30 to Life.

What the hell was sexy about the first game? Again, this series isn't Lollipop Chainsaw.
Unless Dwarvenhobble has been looking at porn/Rule 34 of TLOUS I, I have no idea. But you know him: he's doing the usual deflecting and goal posting. It's all he ever does, because he knows he's got nothing at all.

And yet people like you are here to whine about people like me so what does that say about your life?

I figured after the 4th of 5th time how you proclaimed you were blocking me and done with talking to me you'd actually abide by it but then I still find you sniping from the sidelines like this quite often.

Also issues that cause actual harm?
Oh you mean like sexy women in games?
Or the lack of black elves in the Witcher games?
Or the lack of gay romance in Lord of the Rings?
Or the lack of wheelchair ramps in Dungeons and Dragons Dungeons?
Or how people have got it into their head that Orcs = black people so orcs are racist?
Or how there's no female space marines (While ignoring the fact the Sisters of Battle are fucking awesome without being genetic supersoldiers)
Or an artist drawing a character 2 skin tones too light?
Or female characters having butts?
Or that time people got super mad everyone wouldn't suddenly accept Samus as being Trans just because some journalist said so?
Or that time a DC artist decided to do a meet and greet at a Pizza parlour without publicly declaring his allegiance for a certain political ideology?

What fucking planet are the Jezebel writers on?

Monica Rambeau, a Black woman superhero, has been harangued by virulently sexist, chronically online men and unrepentant incels since it was announced.
I've seen literally no-one with an objection to her other than "Wow Marvel is doing a shit job with her because they expect you to have watched Wanda Vision to know who she is and even then they really didn't flesh her out or explain her much and it doesn't look like this film will do that either"

In April, when the first trailer for The Marvels dropped, it became the most disliked Marvel trailer in history on YouTube because it showcased women, raking in even more dislikes than Sony’s Morbius, a movie famous for little else except being very bad.
You literally can't see the dislike count on youtube anymore.

You have to use special plugins to see it and it was hidden because companies were getting pissy that they were getting downvoted and it's still not enough because site like this are still upset people can downvote the thing lol.

review-bombing Disney+ shows about female superheroes like She-Hulk and Ms. Marvel


Wasn't Ms Marvel just not that good and they chose to re-write how her powers work thus alienating some of her existing comic fans?

The Kamala Khan character has been getting heat from right wing loons ever since she debuted in 2014. She's a teenage Muslim superhero with none of the negative stereotypes associated with such a demographic and doesn't have powers that lend themselves to "pretty" visuals or allow for underage fanservice bait. Her show getting review bombed is just more of the same when it comes to what the character has to deal with.

Some of her fans disliked the changes to her powers but the majority of the hatred was from those who were already inclined to hate her.

You seemingly can't understand people don't like Abby for a number of other reasons, but because you lot are so shallow apparently you have to focus on her look and believe everyone else does too.
He said, after multiple gigantic posts about Abby's appearance.

Because that was the main aspect people were choosing to focus on here.


So you can see the dislike count.
Takes special ad ons to do so.

Also hilariously it was hidden at the behest of studios to stop this kind of reporting happening or to make their stuff look less disliked. People said at the time it was stupid as people would still find metrics to measure dislike of something one way or another and here we are with writers now whining that people still aren't falling in line and can still be allowed to downvote something.

Which considering the trailer and peoples present objection to the MCU, yeh I can see the reason for the dislikes as it's Marvel that's been accused of becoming more silly and less able to maintain being serious and The Marvels trailer is a lot more silly slapstic like humour in it. It could work and be a hit and be a sort of Marvel space roadtrip film but who knows at this point.

Didn't they literally change her powers from Inhuman gene related powers to magical mystical bracelet thing?
You know an actual stereotype / trope that's been overused for POC characters who get mystical bracelet things or mystical artifacts rather than their powers some other way? You know the kind of thing people were claiming DC was racist because of Vixens totem related powers?
