I hate this argument.

For decades most people sucked it up and endured activist actors or directors because they wanted to enjoy whatever movies they were making. they tried to separate the art from the artist. Not always depending on the artist and how far they'd go...but mostly.

But now, it's not some random actor/director that feels the need to talk nonstop about politics, it's nearly all of them. And it's not enough that they openly pick a side, they feel the need to tell you they're NOT picking a side, because they're on the side of human rights and if you disagree you're evil. They'll tell you if you don't like them to not watch.

So we don't...and then they openly complain that audiences can't stop bringing their politics to the movies.

This is totally relevant to Andor show runners calling their show a “Trumpian world”,


Crazy. Had no idea Andor actress Fiona Shaw was also a showrunner on the show. I thought I would have heard about Tony Gilroy sharing credit.

Marvel for attacking their racist/misogynistic fans for hating Reva before the show was released, etc etc etc

I don't think Marvel attacked fans for hating a show they didn't create, but it's weird that you have no issue with people attacking a show before they've had a chance to assess any aspect of it.

I’m a Rush baby that grew up on Reagan, GWB, and W and then wholly rejected my parents’ brand of conservatism. I didn’t go Obama but I recognized the folly of the GOP. From as early as I could remember till about 2006, you always knew Hollywood leaned left, but you could separate the art from the artist.

Ever since i started paying attention in 2000, I could tell that Hollywood and NYC thought I was less than. Never bothered me much.

Around 2012-2014 it went from politically different to openly antagonistic.

The argument of “poliboard invaded” is acting like there hasn’t been opening salvos from the left for over a decade.

Or to more a specific instance, it’s acting like the right started the culture war about drag time story hour when the “cultural” left has been the one saying they aren’t happening or they’re not a big deal if they are and getting upset that the right is pointing it out.

yeah a lot of people avoided it because of all the outrage when it was released then picked it up on sale eventually and loved it and were confused why they avoided it


Discount or not, the story didn't change, did it? No one said it wasn't an aesthetically well-made game. Or that it didn't' play well. It was the storyline which got fans the most upset.

And outside of the game, the creator, Niel Druckmann @ NaughtyDog is an insufferable nutsack who outright lied to everyone.

What they are asking for is for those that disagree with them to shut up AND continue to pay them. they want the ability to bring their politics to the TV screen, the movie theater, the radio, etc but audience members have no such choice. They must silently consume next product. And really, silently isn't enough...they have to parrot whatever activism is being spouted because, as we're told...SILENCE IS VIOLENCE.

I'm torn. Part of me misses the innocence of a time when actors were smart enough to shut the frick up and dance around and collect the money people threw at them for distracting those of us with jobs for a while. All we knew about them was what we heard them say on Carson or what their publicist let get out in a few celebrity magazines. But with social media, every one of them feels the need to wax poetic about every topic that comes up. What we've learned is, most of them are fricking idiots. so while I miss not knowing this, I kind of do like knowing it now...so I can make decisions and avoid handing them any of my money.

You think actors were just all around smarter back then? Haha if social media has shown us anything its that the older generations dont know how to shut up when given a platform to share their thoughts with the world.

They were protected from putting their feet in their mouths back in the old days. Now they will gladly hit submit on a post that their publicist doesnt have time to review for the whole world to see and screenshot instantly.

No, cause you literally seek out people to tell you how to think and then form strong opinions on shite you haven't even seen/heard/played or had any actual contact with the source material in question.

People use the phrase way too much around here, but you are actually a sheep. A parrot of others. A culture war puppet lacking any original ideas of your own unless someone tells you first how to process and think about them.

Worst of all your knight in shining culture-war armor is a former meth head and drug dealer to kids grifting off angry too-online conservative nerds

Yep. Nerdrotic said last of us 2 was bad and woke so despite it being out for years now and him never having played it he still holds that belief.

The leaks that people got mad about actually had a lot of shite wrong too.

Why is it so hard for you to admit that girl power and tranny/homo glorification generally make for crappy movies or shows that no one wants to watch?

You’re such a dumbass

Are you aware Twitter exists and we get to see what the showrunners say directly to and about the fans in real time?

Or that the show runners give interviews to the trades or even smaller online media companies talking about such issues? You think people don’t form opinions based on their words?

it’s just a way for you to deflect from the incessant attacks on the fans and diverse garbage they’re producing. There’s no way for you to combat that so you resort to attacking the fan reaction itself instead of the issues

If said poster only focused on specific words of Druckmann that exist seperate of the story he created, that might be one thing, but your boy is specifically trying to level criticism of a story he never played, never experienced, and is only being told HOW to think about it by a third party and regurgitating that anger and criticism. That is the definition of a sheep and a parrot.

I would gladly discuss story criticism, but here’s the catch, you and he can’t cause you haven’t played the games, you’ve just been told how to think about them by people that’s income is derived from keeping you angry. Posting videos from a period where much of the rumors swirling were proven absolutely false. But you and he are incapable of differentiating when watching these videos cause neither of you have actually played and compared the two. So you are again, just blind sheep and parrots of the culture wars

I don't get the phenomenon, but watching people complain about TV and movies is huge on YouTube.
There are people who just complain about Disney and they get a ton of views.

I sometimes watch the long red letter media reviews and I really enjoy HISHE and pitch Meeting. Though I don't like Nerdrotic.
He really does bitch about everything.

Is not the politics is the style of posting.
This entire forum is on the right of the spectrum. That's not the issue.
The issue is the politard poster
"I'm right, you're wrong, frick you and everyone who agrees with you" style of posting that is so prevalent there is now over the entire board.
If you have one disagreement with a politard then you're entire position must be one opposed to them and you belong to the side of what ever insult follows.
Its really drug the forum down.

Sure, I play a game or two a year. You have a 20,000 post count consisting primarily of lazy take culture whining on a regional sports board. Casting stones and glass houses my friend

...Though none of that explains why you are posting self-portraits?
