Man. Those guys reeeeeally loved saying the r-word huh.

It’s kinda fucked up how acceptable it was even ten years ago.

Also these nerds unapologetically really liked the dark knight rises lol.

You have to understand, in the Midwest, until like 2015 outside of academia, qu**r and the r-word were common parlance among every single group of people to the degree that you wouldn’t care if you used them in front of your grandma. Never been comfortable with either myself, but that is really unsurprising.

Hasn’t queer been pretty much reclaimed by the LGBTQ community? I’ve heard it used mostly positively since like 2013, but maybe that’s a regional thing.

Yeah the only pushback would be like, oh that’s not nice to say about that person - at most

Yeah being abelist really wasn’t something people considered in the late-aughts. Generally their material is pretty good and spot-on, I like re:view the best.

Watching comedies from that time period is jarring just on the insane amount of homophobia alone

you should check out their series “Best of the Worst”

imo, it’s a much better starting point to their group dynamic than Half-in-the-bag, and I think they’re at their best when reviewing dumb b-movie crap and making jokes than doing actual film criticism. That or their show re-view where they talk about stuff they like. In general, starting half in the bag from the beginning doesn’t really seem worth it to me.

watch all the best of the worstss, write down the movies that look fun bad or otherwise hilarious, then watch them drunk with friends, grand old time

Edit: my personal favorite has probably got to be Beware: Children At Play

I synced it up so the start of the climax would happen at exactly midnight and watched it with friends for new years, 10/10 would recommend

The third one is just bad. Has the some of the dumbest looking scenes and nothing interesting even happens in it. And obviously the intense copaganda.

like all Nolan, I really liked it on first watch and less and less on each subsequent watch. Tenet was the first I didnt care about on first watch and it felt like finally being over a breakup.

The middle movie’s emotional climax is about how people are basically good, even if they’re criminals. The Joker’s whole perspective is that he embraces the monster he thinks everyone in society is, and Batman’s deal is that he defends people because he knows they’re not.

IMO the greatest crime of the third film was that Christopher Nolan kinda forgot what he had written for the second.
