It definitely is going to seem more like a fanfic romance of her than a well crafted story

Don’t get complacent Iowa! Everyone assumed Hilary would win because “everyone would vote for her”.

Thanks, I’m new to this so didn’t know where to start. I subscribed to my local film festival, but I’ve never heard of them getting anything large, still will check them out. If you have any youtubers or blogs you like in that sphere, I’m starting from scratch so I appreciate anything.

Fine, you want me to be explicit?

If you’re driving and I’ll jump onto the road right in front of you, will you still be at fault?

Yes. I would be at fault. I’m the one driving a hunk of metal that is capable of easily killing people, you could be drunk, delirious, it doesn’t matter. It’s on me.

Where in the world would that be the case?

I say everywhere.

If I come to a factory and stick my hand into a wood chipper that someone was operating and then say “whoever the hell was operating this 5 thousand pound hunk of steel should be at fault now!”

Irrelevant. Streets are not supposed to be deathtraps. No one deserves to die simply by wandering into the street. Again, drunk, delirious, or a child - none of them deserve to die because they wandered into the street.

If someone robbed you, think about it this way - if you hadn’t been there, none of it would have happened.

Again, victim blaming. It is not the victims fault. It doesn’t matter that they were there, if they had 100 sticking out of their pocket. Still robbery. It doesn’t matter if a woman is revealing “too much”. Stillremoved. It doesn’t matter why a person was in the street. They’re still dead.

If you don’t appreciate what you’re capable of when you’re driving, then you shouldn’t be driving.

It’s easy. You decided to drive a vehicle, you’re at fault, it’s your job to watch out for pedestrians. If you can’t stop in time, you’re moving too fast. If your vehicle is so large that it kills them instead of simply hurting them (see - large trucks with huge grills instead of safer lower fronts), then you’re at fault 100% because you chose an unsafe vehicle. If you can’t see them because it was at night, still I don’t care, that was on you, you should be able to see them. Feel free to argue it in court, that’s what they’re there for, but duty should on the driver to prove that, they were the one operating the heavy machinery. If that worries you or makes you feel emotions then good. You should feel nervous when you drive a vehicle, it’s quite literally heavy machinery that you’re hurtling forward at 60mph. You’re responsible for it.

Same idea, but if a pedestrian is jaywalking across a street, technically illegal and it’s not a safe move - but is struck by a car - the car is still at fault. As a driver you are still in charge of driving a 2-5 thousand pound hunk of steel and you accept that risk when you get behind the wheel. So I think logically, what the person was doing was not the smartest - but that doesn’t mean they deserved death for it - you are responsible.

Think about it this way - if you hadn’t been there driving would they have been fine? If so, you caused it, you’re at fault.

Same applies toremoved and dressing provocatively. It’s an irrelevant argument because it puts blame on the victim, when no matter what they do they don’t deserve that outcome. The blame is on the person who caused it in the first place.

Most of Reddit was a toxic hellhole. It’s why I’m not on Reddit anymore.

Whoever they are, we know one thing about them. They are dicks.

Edit: k, idk why you downvoted me, was trying to show you another sub with an audience directly for this question that you may want to also ask, but k go ahead and downvote me OP.

“It was a pretty diverse slate and certainly wasn’t cannibalization of films,” says Matthew Harrigan, a senior analyst at Benchmark Co. “It was more that nothing really worked.”

We kept doing reboots, endless franchise bullshit, and wrote everything by committee, allowed no one to take any risks, and now we don’t know why no one wants to see any of our films!
