This is such a good way of drawing Spoiler's face. No features, just a black blob with absurdly expressive white eyes.

Not gonna make it. Movies and old anime on occasion. He/Him
Sailor moon hitting her knee so badly her pain is depicted as her as a skeleton with hair bones is a perfect visual gag.
Ok, this one might be my favorite, haven't stopped laughing
Besides Char and Garma, which Gundam characters should have started a podcast?
I did not expect Armored Trooper Votoms to go full tragic old man yaoi.
well congratulations. you've shown you're unwilling to stand up for human rights if it's for the 'wrong' people; you've alienated the supporters that actually do care about human rights for everyone; and you still haven't stopped the fascists coming for you. a lesson no-one seems capable of learning
This is why you dont try to compromise or concede anything to these horrors
I'm kicking myself for not getting into Slay the Spire until the last summer sale.
This thread's the most useful contribution to the Wilson discourse I've seen so far, analyzing how much meaning film can get out of scenes lasting less than a minute.
interesting aside here about Patel as Odysseus, which would have been dope, but also misses the crucial (Hollywood) cinematic technique Nolan deploys in his film namely, he shaves scenes and dialogue down to the bone, casting stars who can fill in the gaps via performance and star persona
In this era where art is expected to be moral if not moralistic, Kinji Fukasaku's Black Lizard is such a joy. The title villainess (Akihiro Miwa) may be a serial killer, but the film absolutely doesn't care. Why should it, when Miwa's so fun to watch and the camera loves him?
Oh man that Wilson piece is such a bad faith takedown. I can't wait to hear people parrot it for years.
For making Tenet's climax too confusing, the gods cursed Christopher Nolan to forever face this dumb critique.
Me watching Millennium Actress on the big screen, hearing Hirotaka Suzuoki's voice coming from the scumbag director's mouth: Did Satoshi Kon have opinions on the Mirai-Bright marriage?
so of course we ALL know and love the character of ebeneezer scrooge. but imagine, if you will, a story in which we learn about what he was like, perhaps, in christmases PAST. too hard to do, i agree! but luckily the dreamweavers in hollwood california have prepared yet another gossamer confection,
My kid niece has independently discovered shipping and is now invested in the romantic lives of the Scooby Doo cast. She was happy to hear Velma and Hot Dog Water like each other like that.
How are you singing your national anthem at the stadium when you didn't even make the finals?
Inspiring: Scooby Doo creatives fighting the executives for twenty years to make Velma gay, finally fulfilling the vision of homophobic 12-year-olds yucking about the plain one being a lesbian.
I guess Dolores Umbridge is Rowling's most vivid creation for the same reason the most visceral parts of Sandman are the diner and Calliope.
Not specifically in a sexual way but I am pretty certain that JK Rowling gets off on sadistic abuse of trans people and human rights organisations, the way it's never really enough for her to just stop at being domineering or intimidating.
Amnesty International put out a major report documenting the influence of UK based anti trans gender critical organizations and their funding. Within hours, GC groups threatened defamation lawsuits and Amnesty was forced to pull it down. Proving the point they're anti rights. Anyways, here it is.
Don't you recognize the threesome dragon when you see it
This is the first painting I remember liking as a child. The girl's slightly out of it look made an impression.
Art question 🎨 What painting, photograph, sculpture, or piece of visual art has stayed with you long after you first saw it? Not necessarily your favorite. The one that lingered.
RIP Tony Rayns, a prodigious fount of knowledge (and take-no-prisoners critical opinion) on East Asian cinema. I was once on a panel with him at the BFI where he casually mentioned that he was having dinner with Tony Leung afterwards.
Was Roottreemania worse than the main game, breaking the original's elegant mechanics by going for overly complex solutions to its puzzles, or am I just a dummy?
In the year of our lord 2026, we have Dave Grohl quoted as saying “Kurt Cobain would’ve loved yuri”

There doesn't seem to be much writing on Marcel Lefebvre on the English Internet and what there is tends to be pro. You run into bizarre formulations about how his lifelong support for the far-right is really a minor current and the French left is so unreasonable you have to be a little fascist.
I can't believe Dreamworks would go on record declaring that Hitler wasn't the most evil person of his era.
