I do love how anytime there is a hogwarts legacy thread it shoots straight up to the top of their trending threads even after the lock. People like us looking, and probably them gawking on a discord how the evil chuds dared to post the terf game  😂

Would love to read a leak of their discord chat when discussing banning cyberpunk, hogwarts legacy, and now all Harry Potter 😂

That's why it wasn't a community decision. They know they'd lose easily. ERA is like r/gamingcirlclejerk, just a psychotic hivemind of lies and bullshit masquerading as doing the greater good.

As an unapologetic Batman v Superman, Justice League, AND Man of Steel fan, it's finally my time, it's petty, and it's all been worth it.

Had thread after thread after thread about anything Snyder related, endless jokes and memes. Same thing about more recent DC movies like Flash or Shazam. It was all fun and games then. Now it’s “ok we don’t need all these threads this is weird”

Skin as thin as the absolute worst tissue paper out there.

I'm not petty because I think these films are great, idiots often dislike good things and it doesn't bother me, I'm petty because there was absolutely no rhyme or reason to their decision that anything DC was pro-chud and they needed to socially signal by being over the top about it whether the films were good, mediocre or bad. (Most post-Snyder being in the latter two categories imo.) They just adopted this stance and held to it even when movies like Wonder Woman 1984 were pretty much what they were claiming they wanted. They threw a shit fit over a made-for-TV movie getting canned from a company they claim to hate because "brown people" then spent months warring on and then crowing about Black Adam a film that has a single white male in the main cast and is filled with obscure comic characters. They lost their shit about The Flash endlessly despite starring a non-binary person and erasing all the Snyder ties they claimed they hate about these movies.

The whole thing has always felt Two Minute Hate like Cyberpunk where somebody somehow declared this and they all ran with it. At least with Harry Potter you have the fact that Joanne actually says critical things even if 90% of the fervor is manufactured but in the case of CDPR or DC it's entirely manufactured and then they go back and come up with all the reasons they decided they have to be against it even if they're incoherent and contradictory and maybe even especially if the MCU is more guilty of it.

I'll go further and say MovieBob's DC and Warner hatred makes more sense to me. (Bob hates DC, and therefore anything Warner since they own DC, because some pro-Romney Republican he was fighting with back on his old blog really loved The Dark Knight Rises.)

It’s a little telling how the people all ride or die for those movies defend Snyder, Nolan, et al. The directors and artists. That’s how it’s always been for movie chit chat online. From Lucas to Bay to Cameron. Even the Barbie movie leaned on Greta Gerwig as director.

In all the posts shared here, the marvel fanboys are defending brand, corporation, movie studio, and producer. Sometimes the actors. But not really anybody coming out to support Nia DaCosta. It’s weird.

Uh, please don't erase that I have been calling for the DaCosta Cut for literally days now. Some of us are fighting against the chuds who have infiltrated Disney on Zaslav's orders.

yeah this is a serious demo collapse and probably one of the bigger problems with their marketing. the MCU needs everyone to show up, not just the omega comic book nerds from the simpsons.

Perhaps not characterising the people who did turn up as 'omega comic nerds' might help?

User Banned (1 Month): Inflammatory boys club rhetoric

Lots of people asking why folks be masturbating at work like folks are just degenerates.

Let me tell you!

When I was 16 I had a summer job working in an office tower. For half the summer it was my job to go into each office and vacuum out the baseboard heating/air conditioning units. 99% of those offices had twenty something year old women that wore mini skirts.

I crawled around on the floor trying to do my job but damn all of those sexy legs and thighs drove me crazy. These women largely ignored me and were relaxed, meaning they weren't concerned with how they were sitting.

I saw lots of stuff that made me a horny mess and I jerked off in the bathroom several times every day. Thankfully I never got caught.

[benji]

no, but the israeli project for the last 70 years designed to ethnically cleanse arabs from "land we think should be Israel" does make it both policy and reality.

you don't have to go full retard the other way just because you hate hamas. 

Hamas is a terrorist organization that happens to have control effectively of Gaza, it isn't the Palestinian people. It is unfortunately a good percentage, but not even a majority.

Both groups have claim to the land and when the current state was founded it was to be 2 states, but extremes on the PA side started a civil war and we'll let's not get into the weeds as I there's a good chance you're just fucking around.

But whatever it's your opinion man

We need to recognize multiple things here, Palestine has never formed as a legitimate state and Hamas/Palestinian claims extend to land the faux-state has never held. The Arabs are the ones who attacked originally which led to the start of Israeli occupation and no one else was willing to occupy the land because it would have legitimized Israel. Israel withdrawing hasn't always meant "Palestine" starts operating in those areas, in many cases these are anarchic territories that have a designated state that refuses to operate in them. Israel, as a state, has a non-religious and non-ethnic reason for wanting their borderlands to have a state operating in them. The Palestinian and Arab claim isn't that there should be two states, it's that there should be one state with a Muslim-Arab majority. If Palestine forms as a state equal to Israel then it legitimizes Israel which is unacceptable.

Imagine if the next closest large city to yours not only isn't part of your country, it isn't part of any country and has no institutions yours can work with on typical government tasks. This is effectively the state-interest of Israel with the Palestinian lands, you don't need an ethnonationalist/fascist/religious/etc. explanation (not saying those don't exist nor that they aren't most prominent) for Israelis saying "fuck, nobody else is going to do this, we will" especially if there are Israeli populations that have moved into these regions. There's no "Palestine" for them to turn to that would keep people from occupying unorganized lands in the first place and there's definitely no one to work with in establishing state institutions there. There's a fundamental problem in saying Israel is the authority that needs to prevent its citizens in settling outside of Israel, no other state has this burden for obvious reasons.

This is not to endorse any and all Israeli action (or even a plurality of them), instead it is to say that if we are going to treat any and all Palestinian (and Hamas) action as justified because Israel then it behooves us to invert that to understand the operation of a historical conflict or else we will only ever be able to determine that either Israel or Palestine needs to go. Then it's just deciding which people you like better for whatever reason.

User Banned (Permanent): Justifying genocide

I'm not sure what you mean? And while water wells exist, they cannot operate without fuel - which Israel also has cut off from the area. The only remaining option is to rely on solar panels, but those are targeted by the IDF as well.

Yes, Israel has cut off electricity and water: that's absolutely right. That's what I mean. But ask yourself why Israel is supplying electricity and water to people who literally want to drive them into the sea. Israel agreed to the supply for humanitarian reasons. Because other Arab states are happy to support Palestine in its demands, but they don't want to supply Palestine with water and electricity.

To this end, Hamas had already started digging up water pipes before the supply freeze in order to use them to manufacture rockets.

And Israel is happy to supply water and electricity again as soon as the hostages are freed.

The narrative that Israel is simply drying up Palestine is Hamas propaganda. If Israel wanted to dry up Palestine, it could have done it years ago.

I really need to use this more often. Not with Israel but like with Joanne and everything else. We've been living under capitalism, colonialism and white supremacy for so long, so then why do the chuds ever not achieve their goals?

Support REAL female empowerment.

If resetera was all about inclusivity, they'd be championing the F&F series, but all they do is punch down and dismiss at the most diverse cast in filmic history (minus those exploitative 70s mondo films).

Look how relaxed Brie is in that interview. It's like not being a feminist icon as a bullet point to a movie really helps you out in your acting and likeability (she was slightly less wooden in FX).

How does please don't destroy do a terrible sketch that trivializes the current situation in Gaza within a sketch that also trivializes suicide, literally using an utterly bizarre throwaway Hamas joke in a sketch about death, where the punchline is that they suck and that they don't care that they suck


Like this is for me up there as a candidate for one of the worst sketches SNL has ever aired.

[kaleidoscopium]

This is the first time I can recall them locking a weekend box office thread. This is incredible

The retardEra Elites have taken a lot of L's this year, it might actually be their worst year on record:

- Forspoken was an absolute bomb, despite banning people for suggesting it looked terrible
- Hogwarts Legacy was a certified top tier $1B+ generating title with just 1 game
- Marvel has had 2 outright awful movies with bad BO performance and 2 all time worst performing shows
- Cyberpunk 2077s resurgence with their new DLC putting it back on top
- Avatar wasn't just successful, it was the only thing keeping Disney afloat this year alongside Guardians of the Galaxy 3

Any other Era flops I'm forgetting about?

[DocWager]

Looks like it’s making fun of the weirdos that start threads with the implication they would kill themselves, but really are either online panhandling, or looking for people to look at their subpar work.

Doesn't even mention calling a COP over for someone AT RISK???

[benji]

It's specifically deciding to use an Hamas joke within the context of a suicide joke with a punchline being the three guys not caring the guy who died.

And I think it reflects worse after the especially good monologue Pete Davidson gave a few weeks ago.

It's also stolen from a picture of canceled Christmas Ham bag that went viral, they just changed thd pronounciation

And I'd suggest you ask yourself if a similar joke reflecting on not wanting share a song that suggests support of Israeli Government's war crimes would ever be considered let alone aired yeah.

STOP NOT BEING ANGRY THREAD

edit: now people are doing "jumper" jokes in the thread

[benji]

There was a way to make this an actual challenging joke...

After the Hamas band name joke, the jumper says ok share it under my old band's name: Ben-Gvir to which the three are also horrified at.

Which would actually be a pretty impactful transgressive joke.

Did PlanetSmasher write this?

Discussing how certain movies may or may not be doing well is fine. To take that element to point and antagonize one another is not ok.
Let's also knock off discussion of "Chuds" and the like. They do not matter in the context of what's impacting the Box Office for certain films.
