There was another movie like Oppenheimer that year? I really don't think you know what the phrase means.
So now we can’t compare it to other Best Picture nominees. Ok.

I'll ask another way: do you think Hollywood, the people who vote on these absurd circle jerk awards, value a lead or supporting actor as much as the guy on camera #4?
I think that when it comes to meeting the diversity index that’s required to be nominated for Best Picture, yes. It’s literally in written criteria. That’s what we’re discussing here.

Well, you can read the article or disregard it if you're not interested

That depends. Sometimes I think he wants you to read them, other times he tells people to stop listening to other opinions and decide for yourself.
Since he's spamming positive reviews and box office numbers, I'm guessing he wants this review to mean something.

Well you didn’t watch the movie and nobody was stomping their feet. It’s funny you always emphasize your arguments with lies to give them weight. It shows that the lie is the backbone of all your positions. Otherwise it wouldn’t be such a valuable tool in your view.

I explained it thoroughly and now you’re pretending I didn’t. Dishonesty is the theme for your side just like your argument about Cinon not being a great soldier.

You are aware that this is the Internet right? Twitter, YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok are all littered with people that whined about the casting choices and pretended like this movie was going to bomb

What do you think the income difference is between a supporting actor like Holland and that guy on camera #4?
I've read the rules. They can't very well claim that DEI is important for these jobs but not those jobs, but we all know where the money goes. That's who they value, that's who's important.

you thought Page was playing fricking Achilles until the last minute.
Ellen Page is playing the role Achilles fills in the Odyssey. That is accurate. I didn't think she was filling that role until after the movie released.

We have two threads for a reason. Go discuss the film in the other thread. I literally titled this thread "news, reviews, box office, etc." If you don’t like it, feel free to move along. No hard feelings

Again dishonesty, you’re taking other platforms and projecting it onto posters here without anything to back that cohesion. And if you did see the movie you know those two characters aren’t the only race swaps and miscast.

What Ben Shapiro thinks about a movie has nothing to do with me. I'm not swayed by the opinions of others.

He can say whatever he wants though I know you’re a “rules for thee but not for me” person

I forgot where Achilles becomes a sacrificial pin cushion to the Trojans.
Can you please link?

Page plays a soldier that is killed while delivering the trojan horse and his death helps add motivation to Odysseus getting home and taking revenge on Antinous.
So yeah nothing like Achilles

I'm well aware but that's not where most of the discourse was but it clearly bothers the hell out of you while also not being a problem that exists
Posted on 7/19/26 at 5:32 pm to Adam Banks
Yes you have, stop lying
Posted on 7/19/26 at 5:32 pm to NighthawkDawg
Another false accusation. Simply lying again
