can finnick not die in the movie
as much as I don’t like the movies being a lot different from the book, I think I would be okay with this.
Peter gained a leg, i’m sure Finnick can gain a life
who the fuck is peter

Logistically speaking, the extended final battle sequence in this movie made no sense at all. From an ethical and strategic standpoint, every one of Superman’s decisions was a nightmare. Most of the fights took place in heavily populated areas and he made no attempt to, you know, fly Zod out into the desert or something, where he couldn’t raze any more skyscrapers to the ground. Seriously. SO MANY PEOPLE DIED IN THIS MOVIE. And in really unnecessary ways. — Man-Child of Steel
You know, between TDKR (Gotham gets fucked) and MoS (Metropolis gets FUCKED) - The prospects of the country in the DC cinematic universe is NOT good. Imagine if within the span of two years, both Chicago and New York gets decimated. WOAH
That critic above made me think of The Avengers final battle where one of Steve Rogers’s first orders was to keep the aliens contained to a 3 block area (“Turn it around or turn it to ash”) and then he ordered the police to move the civilians underground and into safety, to save as many of them as possible.
Okay, honestly, the more reviews I hear the more horrible the movie sounds.
I was talking about this with my sister after I watched the movie. There was a particular part of the movie I found more stupid than the rest. There was a part of the city that was completely destroyed (and for a moment I thought I was watching TDKR instead of MoS) and Zod and Clark were standing there. They could fight there and nothing else would be destroyed because there wasn’t anything else but debris and ruins
(and some of the people of Daily Planet that are really brave, I have to give them that. Everything was falling apart, some super powerfull aliens were fighting and they were standing there, watching, because they are that hardcore)but Clark noticed that there were too many buildings standing still and decided to destroy them all. There really, really, was no need.The movie is not terrible bad, but is nor particulary good. I still think the best movies of Superman/Man of Steel are Christopher Reeves’
I really have to agree with this, the extended fight scenes were unnecessary and I kept thinking, damn that’s too much collateral damage.
It’s been a while since I’ve seen Superman 2 but I seem to recall Clark was trying to lure away Zod to keep the damage to a minimum. Thanks for mentioning Steve Rogers, because I thought about that part too.
I don’t know why the director didn’t make Clark’s first priority keeping the collateral damage to a minimum thus keeping people safe. I like the movie but I really felt it had the bones to be *better*. I also agree, the first Superman movie for me will forever be Reeve’s/Donner’s Superman.

if sirius black’s girlfriend never once took the opportunity to reply “yes” when someone asked her “are you fucking serious” i’m very disappointed in his choice of women

This is the main reason for my general annoyance with lack of size regulation in the fashion industry…
men’s pants are labeled by waist and inseam measurement. women’s pants are labeled by voodoo. even though i do not buy women’s pants, i can recognize this as objectively dumb.
THE NOTES ON THIS
because i can’t stress this enough. this is why i don’t let the numbers get to me. as jumpingjacktrash so eloquently said “women’s pants are labeled by voodoo.”
BUT THISTHISTHISTHISTHIS
so when boys make fun of girls taking forever to shop and trying everything on
WE FUCKING HAVE TO OR NOTHING WILL FIT

has anyone ever finished a game of monopoly
i now know why
yeah it’s not that great
I never made it past the battle over who got the little Scotty terrier game piece.
I still have no idea how the game even works. My best guess is it’s something about robber barons and redlining or some shit, I really have no clue.
the last time i played a game of monopoly a friend got so mad that they knocked over a candle which set a basket of napkins on fire
i feel like that’s a perfect metaphor for that game
Here is the thing, okay? Coming into a feminist conversation with, “Have you considered that sometimes women acquire free drinks at bars?” is like walking into graduate school during Philosophy finals and saying, “Have you considered that the color blue that I see may not be the color blue that you see?”
Imagine you are the guy who just walked into that Philosophy class and laid that shit down. Imagine the class full of students who have worked very hard and committed themselves and sacrificed to be here, students who have spent several years of their lives learning about this subject. Imagine now their feelings when you go to the head of the classroom with a smirk on your face and demand the professor give you an A for effort. Imagine now that they think you are a douchebag asshole, because they do, and because you are. You are a douchebag asshole because you are obviously so self-centered, arrogant, and completely ignorant of the world around you, that you thought you could walk into a high-level course with no background and no work and say something profoundly simplistic and totally unrelated and also everybody should congratulate you for having done this thing, so brave, so provocative.
[….]
You are not asking us a real question. You are simply illustrating, for all to see, your own ignorance. You are saying, “I have not considered the implications of the question I have just asked. I have not taken the time nor effort nor commitment to sit down and ask myself this question. Instead, I have come into your philosophy classroom/office/feminist blog and shat out my question with a smirk, because I believe that my two seconds of thought are worth more than your long-term analysis, because I believe I am worth more.”
