Glenn Greenwald calls out the delusion of those who thinks Silicon Valley is using their power to "uplift the marginalized"; the social media moguls only cares about public image, and their censorship can easily cut both ways. "If you have no principle, if all you care about is power and strategy, then you are incredibly stupid" (Video)

Note the date. Bobby cut that out please! Glenn is married!
Quite fitting words from Greenwald in relation to Moviebob: Bob only cares about power and strategy, ergo Bob is incredibly stupid.

Additionally, that crack from Bob about "your mother was on the scale with me"? Please refer to my previous post., because any woman strong enough was have given Moviebob the Topper Harley treatment, resulting in a fascistic film freak forever flapping his face in flasetto. (Castrato, actually, but alliteration always amuses.)

But of course Bobby and co. are still mad about Virginia:

I've grown to accept one reality: If any political movement pisses Moviebob off, then I know the bad guys lost.



Glenn Greenwald, like an adult, says something poignant, and Bob babbles some random access humor gibberish in his replies.
Remember: Mmost American adults can comprehend Glenn Greenwald's words on their own; Moviebob requires an English-to-Stupid translation to understand what Glenn Greenwald is saying.

This thing where people like Bob pretend that we only just now starting teaching about the civil war and slavery and that's what the GOP is freaking out about, and that past generations were completely ignorant of the topic, is one of those points that really highlights how vile Bob and his ilk are. Every high school student, and maybe most of the middle schoolers are taught about the civil war, it is a legally mandated part of the curriculum and the exact details of what must be covered are spelled out clearly in publicly accessible documents. The idea that anyone could be so stupid/arrogant to believe that they can just invent claims to the contrary and get away with it is pathetic, though not as pathetic as the people that knowingly lie to the themselves about their own past and play along with that lie out of....I don't even know.
Literally the only time I've been genuinely buttmad at what you might consider to be "racism" towards myself is dealing with yanks or worse, Europeans who think that the fact I was born in the south, in an area that is extremely historically significant to the civil war, means that I somehow don't know about it.

We toured battlefields and heard speeches in elementary school. We all had done reports on some tiny aspect of it. Many of us knew where our families were at the time, and there were many people we knew whose families were major players in the history of the South in one way or another. We've seen walls graffitied on by confederate soldiers and read the letters they wrote home.

Truth is these people look down on southerners because they want us to have some kind of shame for what happened. Fuck that. My great, great, grandfather was a share cropper and I don't need to be reminded that city sold slaves. That market is still fucking standing in the same place it was back then, and descendants of slaves can get there ancestry checked for free.
 
LOL. Transformers fucking 5 already did the "What if the Earth is actually a giant monster or something" thing.

Bob keeps harping about how this will be a lot of kids first exposure to such philosophical ideas and whatever, but I think this is gonna be another Black Widow situation, where a lot of kids are just gonna be bored as shit watching it,
 
So it is the tired "civilization plants the seed of its own destruction" canard, but in a comic-book and somewhat deist form. And if the Eternals' task is to feed the Egg, then they are working towards mankind's destruction, which renders their protective mission against the Deviants moot?


In other words, this diversity team in bad costumes is as useless as any diversity team that ever exists.
Well I guess you don't care about spoiler so fuck it, I wont either. Plot synopsis tells me that all but one of the Eternals aren't told about the Celestial egg baby, they were just commanded to "Protect mankind from Deviants for thousands of years." When they learned the secret all of the Eternals except two didn't want to follow thru cuz they love humanity after living with them for so long while the two other Eternals are just cool with humanity's destruction, That's it. that's the full conflict of the second half of the movie.
 
Ah yes, the secret to defending even the shittiest film, "THEMES!"

Did a story have enough plot points where even a meth head could connect a straight line through them? Well congratulations, this movie is now good (unless you don't like it, then just ignore the theme).

Theme is nice in the hands of skilled artists, but so often it is used to defend films that aren't actually as great as people wish they were. I forget who I heard saying it, but it was a director who said that whenever someone asks what the theme of their movies was about, and they didn't actually have one, he would just say "redemption", and everyone always would just piece it together themselves.
Too many people care more about intent than execution when it comes to art. They have a gut feeling that they like whatever film it is that they're championing, but rather than try to argue that the film/game/show/book/whatever successfully conveyed what it was trying to, they think that intent is enough to justify its merits. You see this all the time with the Star Wars prequels, where defenders will say that critics don't understand what George Lucas was trying to say with those movies. In reality, most of the critics understand just fine, it's that he didn't convey it well that they take issue with (and the defenders come off rather condescending as a result). As much as I don't like how he and D.B. Weiss fucked up the latter half of Game Of Thrones, I kind of want to spam the quote of David Benioff saying "themes are for eighth-grade book reports" at people like Bob just out of spite.

The vast majority of Southern whites in the Antebellum South did not own slaves. They mainly fought in the war against the North because they saw their homeland as under attack. The Civil War was largely orchestrated by elites on both sides in defense of their economic and/or cultural interests, and the common people were by and large victims of their machinations, whether it be through participating in the conflict as combatants or civilian casualties.

I'm an adult and I thought that movie was a total snoozefest.

It's especially wild if you're one of the 3 people who'd care and this ancient alien stuff isn't even a Jack Kirby thing like Bob thinks it is. The Eternals being aliens is solely a new MCU idea while the "Earth is a Celestial egg" is one of the worst plot points of the Earth X trilogy which obviously isn't part of mainline canon.

You could've had something more interesting if they actually followed their source material with both the Eternals and Deviants being groups of humans that spawned out of the Celestials experimenting on early life across the universe in an attempt to cause other species to reach their level. Like watching the dawn of mankind through the eyes of proto-superhumans with them leaving Earth after being altered into something else by beings beyond their comprehension.

No idea how Kevin Feige or whoever saw that stuff and went "Nope, I prefer an original story about gay aliens"

Kids don’t even want the McDonald’s toys associated with the movie.
 
I dont have my PHD in Bobology yet, But why does Blob hate anime is there a story to this???? seems like he consoooms everything except that (as well as non mario games after n64). Is it a cultural thing since anime became big in the US after the new millennium? So is it like weebs get off my lawn kind of thing?

Bob has a weird hatred for lots of things outside of his wheelhouse that get popular.

He wants everybody to like what he likes.

Why does he hate anime? He probably just didn't grow up with much of it.

Blob is really jaded, I can imagine his hate for post N64 gaming is because a bunch of trip pants wearing Nu metal listening,, ATV Offroad Fury playing middles schoolers called him a faggot on IGN forums cuz blobby never forgets. So his hated comes from its a new thing that doesn't speak to what he considers his generation , he doesnt get it, and doesn't like it.

I was going to ask if this whole cosmic egg thing was part of the comics, but you answered my question before I could. So thanks for being way more of a comic nerd than Bob is (though that's not saying much).

Seriously though, that plot synopsis is just...man, that sounds like some dull, pretentious shit that will only hold people's interest by putting something shiny on screen every few minutes. I'd put the rest in spoiler tags, but it's already been spoiled upthread and I don't think anyone here actually cares that much about the latest Marvel capeshit. Skip my post if you do, I guess.

Anyway, there's nothing deep about it, with the conflict literally boiling down to "hey should we abort this cosmic fetus so humanity doesn't get genocided?" It's just a trolley problem, nothing more, and not even a really hard one either (one life that you only just learned about a few days ago vs. an entire civilization and possibly the entire planet's biosphere that you've been protecting and watching over for millennia). This is what Bobby was claiming was a deep metaphysical discussion? A fucking trolley problem?

And on top of that, as proof positive that there really was no way to keep wrangling yet another giant superhero team in the increasingly bloated mess that is the MCU, half of the team is either killed off or teleported out of the story by the end of the movie, with the remainder flying off to fuck knows where. So the super important Eternals ended up doing fuckall for the entirety of the MCU up until now, and they're going to continue to do fuckall for the foreseeable future. This was truly a story that needed to be told.

Christ, Endgame really was a good place to eject. Between these cosmic shenanigans and the boneheaded multiverse, things are only going to get even more contrived from here. One thing will remain a constant, though: no matter how stupid these movies get, rest assured that Bobbo will continue his slavering devotion to the Rat's pablum without question.

Only in the sense of it'd be like making a Batman film where Dick Grayson is Bruce's mechanic who eats rats instead of anything resembling Robin. You could argue him eating rats is a reference to All-Star Batman & Robin that's in the same world as other Frank Miller creations because he had to eat rats at one point. That would be a crazy man argument though and would have no place in an adaptation of regular old Batman.

So not really unless you get seriously loose with it. The Eternals aren't aliens in the comics nor is Earth a cosmic egg. Pretty much nothing was taken from the comics there.

Bob doesn't even really grok most philosophical questions properly. From Ship of Theseus, to the Trolley Problem. In fact, if presented with a "Trolley Problem", Bob would insist on crushing the multitude in favor of the one to save because they're probably all Obsolete Mayonnaise Ghouls, while the single person on the other track is likely a pee'o'sea or other Marginalized Group. Even if there was only one ackshually Mayonnaise Ghoul in the multitude, Bob would doom them all because y'know, can't make a Soopeeryah Fyootchah omelette without breaking a few eggs.
