50 years ago, Petula Clarke touched Harry Belefonte's arm and caused an uproar. But be alarmed at under representation or bigotry now, and you are a "snowflake".

You got one there everybody hated.
For me there is not knowing the future, like the foremost Airline Co. going out of business, and not realizing that things will change. Like women still being mainly housewives in 2200, or voice only...
Yeah, most complaints about PC (Political Correctness) is not being allowed to be a bigot. "Why do people get upset when we call grown women Girls, or black men Boys?"
And unless it takes place in Utah, a man wouldn't have to pretend to be gay to have women as roommates.
Yeah, freer to be racists and misogynists. ;)
Man of Steel was a black and white, by the numbers super hero movie. It was very true to Snyder's style, and his visual sensibility is great. But except for killing Zod at the end (John Byrne says...
Pretty much can be said of anything in the 50s. Women took an active roll in the work place during the war, and there was an active campaign by Hollywood and elsewhere to get them back into their...

What if Covid largely ends or diminishes movie theaters. Would any one writing scifi in 2019 think for...
The disappointment of WW84 had nothing to do with the colors or costume. It wasn't any more comic bookie than BVS. It just wasn't a compelling story with weak villains.
Aquaman was very colorful...
Margaret Mitchell was an unrepentant racist who wrote from stories who family told her when she was young about the glory days when the had plantations and owned slaves. Gone with the Wind is...
In The Replacement Killers, the edited out the romance between Chow Yun Fat and Scorvino because it made test audiences uncomfortable. I would rather people uncomfortable with racism than an...
As film history, BOAN and GWTW are both important. But they are also both pro slavery, "Lost Cause" propaganda. And the general audience doesn't watch as film students.
Should they be banned, no,...
Yeah, like in TV shows when the hero wipes out half a dozen unnamed henchmen, but let the villain live because they are 'not a killer'.
Are you talking about season 2? I have to wait until Netflix. Has it gotten bad? I loved the first season.
I was thinking of watching this. Is it good?
The publishing company did not ban anything. They decided not to publish offensive material anymore.
Eisenberg as Luthor, worst...casting...ever!
Though Yoda throwing down with Duku was worth the price of admission.
X-People (10 char)
No, that was Senator Cruz, he cheered the January 6th Insurrection.
Abbot is the worthless Governor who is killing Texas with COVID.
