Ah, Blockbuster. A rental chain that stamped out personality and buried a lot of local businesses and any potential neighborhood color. Half the thrill of working at a video store is stories involving the adult section, and squeakily sanitized Blockbuster didn't even have that going for it.

Creative Chris here can't figure out why that Patreon just won't grow. He's doing five podcasts about the video rental equivalent of Applebee's. Hear his suspenseful, heart-wrenching tales as his store only received 18 copies of Speed 2: Cruise Control when the downtown store got 21! Did Nighttime Weekend Assistant Manager Chris Chipman have to refer a customer to another location? You'll have to listen next week to find out!
I feel blockbuster was more of a gamers video store. I was a bit too late for really experiencing them. Like I was there, I rented movies. But I was still watching cartoon movies ya know. But like the video game selection and cooperation with companies and blockbuster? Thats nostalgic as shit to me.

The curious thing is that Bob and his brother are what? A decade older than me? And I am not a movie person. Unlike someone with that in his goddamn name. So you know. Might be some posing goin on here
 
Lol, I hope it ends up performing better than Eternals just to see more Bob salt.
Realistically fairly unlikely since Eternals is theater only and has the Marvel brand.

But even the good reviews of that are "5/10 boring as fuck, but there is a gay black guy."

And it has what may be the most stupidly melodramatic scene I have heard of a in a long time.

There’s also Phastos, a magical inventor of new technologies played by Brian Tyree Henry, who boasts one of the time-jumping movie’s most confounding moments. The screen reads “Hiroshima 1945” while Henry stands amid the wreckage and yells, “What have I done?!”
 
The sequel was always coming. Bob's squealing could never change that.
To be fair, a sequel was never guaranteed, as Warner Bros./Legendary only fully committed to the one movie, even though Denis Villenueve always intended on making two based on the first book. Of course, now they’ve decided to go ahead with it, so that point is moot now.

Bobby explains why he was given the blue tick:

Marxists die hard:

No. Someone who works for Netflix and earns $80k per year is not "working class" because he doesn't own Netflix. The guy who runs my local corner shop and makes far less than that is not a capitalist because he owns Singh's Food and Wine. Words have meaning and if any of these troons tried to say this in a Marxist society they would find themselves in the gulag pretty quickly.
I would still call a high-earning employee "working class", but the problem with Marxist view of class relationship is that not all members of the working class are created equal. Especially since late 20th century, the "working class" hardly share any life experiences, and there is no such thing as "class consciousness" that can be put to revolutionary ends.
 
I look forward to him explaining how Eternals is "reminiscent" of Justice League's "bigger swings" considering he has yet to show he understands the themes Zack Snyder's version hits you over the head with.

I trust Bobby's lived experience of getting pissy when being called out by young people.
I'm not a Joe Rogan fan or anything but Rogan seems to be more on the pulse of a segment of youth culture than Robert ever has been. He has "trending" people on his show all the time just to find out about them. He's also incredibly respectful to them from what I've seen. Hell, the fact that he didn't literally murder Sargon of Akkad in that episode says a lot about Rogan's temperament.

Nutters are still deliberating which Marxist class do the brutally oppressed Netflix employees belong to. MOS thinks higher income is meaningless as far as class identity is concerned.
(The beginning of the thread if you care for the context; MOS's straw-Marxism continues here)

Trans workers at Netflix did not go on strike despite Robert's claim, nor did they make any labor demands (except that "transphobic" posters be taken down) so it's hard to see how their brief walk out (supported by the company) is some kind of labor movement.

I guess this means that Robert endorses the Confederates, Jim Crow and Conservative Coalition Democrats?

Bobby knows Chinese demographics. And CRT is totally a grassroot movement.

Why did Robert put minorities in quotes? Is he claiming that these minorities in China are not legitimate minorities and thus it's okay that the Han majority has spent millennia violently oppressing them? Or is he simply poorly denying that the latter is true?

The explanation will amount to “Source(s): Dude trust me” with him repeating what he said in his tweet and offering nothing further to back it up.
 
Well as I've mentioned before, what made Star Trek's "superior future" was not the technology, but the attitudes and culture of the people that inhabited it. Characters like Picard, Kirk, Spock, and the Federation represented a future that was obtained because there was a recognition and fundamental, codified respect for the rights and dignity of individuals, regardless of their race, creed, or culture. And that was predicated on - guess what? - morality. Because you can't necessarily give a "scientific" basis for why the rights of individuals should be respected, even if you disagree with them, and in fact there are more than a few instances where you could "scientifically" argue that rights should be removed in order to progress (just look at all COVID lockdown nonsense Blobbert has simped for). The "there is only going forward, not backward" mentality presented by Bob would not give you the Federation. At best, it would get you the Dominion, or at worst, the Borg.

In the original Star Trek, the crew meets an alien-generated clone of Abraham Lincoln. He greets Uhura and calls her "a charming Negress." Instead of being offended by this, Uhura says "It's allright. In the future, we are taught not to fear words." This was the future promised by the Progressives of the 1960s. A place where Race would be irrelevant, and where people could be what they wanted to be, and no one would get offended. The future the Progressives actually delivered is one where everything you've ever said since birth will be held against you and declared to be violence, even if it was acceptable at the time you uttered/wrote it. I can't help but think there were a number of Bob-like radicals in the 1960s who knew all of that "peace and tolerance" stuff they were spewing was bullshit, but said whatever they had to say in order to worm their way into important positions of power/academia. Bob would, of course, heartily approve of this, as he thinks any tactic that gets him and people who think like him into power is worth doing, regardless of the ethical borders it crosses.
 
So remember how Bob was shitting on the new Dune movie?

Eat shit you Harkonnen reject.


Honestly, it pleases me whenever the world tells Bob to fuck off. Even if my thoughts on said product are anything other than a mere meh. I hope the sequel improves everything where the first film failed. But even if I'm not a fan, I can look forward to Bob's Angry squealing whenever this comes around the corner. Speaking of which.

I can picture Bob writing this with his finger shaking in frustration as he still cannot believe JL got made, and he was made look dumb. And not helped by the lukewarm reception the Eternals are getting outside of him. It's really not a good week to be Bob Chipman.
 
> several trans friends

Normal people do not know several transsexuals, never mind count them as friends. You are either lying or fundamentally broken.

> hurt/killed because of Chappelle's hateful shit

Ah, yes, I was there in the early days of the Chappellian Jihad, when we overthrew the god of woke-logic. We were never very productive, since they tended to kill themselves before we even found out about them.

We spent more time writing our updated holy book. Our first commandment was: "A woman is an adult human female. A man is an adult human male." May this commandment ever ring throughout the ages, so that the generations that follow can learn from our folly.

> visuals in the superhero genre

Better CGI?

> humanism in mainstream scifi

I assume this is word salad he'd only "clarify" with more word salad.

> breadth of ambition in both

Dude... Dune. That movie that didn't impress you much, remember? I'd be amazed if the latest entry in a multibillion-dollar franchise can have ambition to beat "Rather than cut down the material too heavily we're going to stop at the halfway point and hope audiences respond positively." Hell, I suspect the only ambition of Eternals is "Don't be the one that kills the MCU."
 
> humanism in mainstream scifi
How would that shit be "humanist" if the protagonists are literally aliens who folded their arms when half of humanity went poof?

"Philosophical and esoteric concepts" such as The Ship of Theseus?

And no, Aronofsky's Mother is widely held as a trashy, bang-you-with-a-hammer subtle fedora tract.
 
Yeah completely called it.

There was no way Bob wouldn't simp for this movie. It checks off too many boxes of things that get him hard.

It also doesn't surprise me that Bob would find Ancient Aliens deep. Or that he found Aronofsky deep. Must be the ambiguity couched between the Zach Snyder level obvious Biblical parallels.
 
Because you can't necessarily give a "scientific" basis for why the rights of individuals should be respected, even if you disagree with them, and in fact there are more than a few instances where you could "scientifically" argue that rights should be removed in order to progress (just look at all COVID lockdown nonsense Blobbert has simped for). The "there is only going forward, not backward" mentality presented by Bob would not give you the Federation. At best, it would get you the Dominion, or at worst, the Borg.
Robert would simp for the "efficiency" of the Cardassian justice system.

For non Trek fans, in the Cardassian justice system you are presumed guilty and all trials are show trials with the purpose of having the "defendant" admit to their guilt. Executions are public displays where the family is forced to be present so their emotions can be enjoyed by the public.
 
You know what I've personally found to be a sign that someone is not a "thinker?" Believing that there is some kind of inevitable "arc" of or endpoint for history that everything naturally works towards or is supposed to work towards, and that any and all bad in the world is done by those standing in the way.

There is no "destined" or "right" future that the universe has predetermined we should arrive at, and that history naturally works towards.

In fact, the idea that there is some determined future that the natural course of history would work towards is an entirely modern and uniquely Western conceit. Kind of chauvinistic there, Bobby.

Now you're probably thinking "make_it_so, how can you say that while having a Captain Picard avatar and being a fanboy of Star Trek, a show that was all about a better future, and which Roddenberry and the show itself often said was something that people worked for?"

Well as I've mentioned before, what made Star Trek's "superior future" was not the technology, but the attitudes and culture of the people that inhabited it. Characters like Picard, Kirk, Spock, and the Federation represented a future that was obtained because there was a recognition and fundamental, codified respect for the rights and dignity of individuals, regardless of their race, creed, or culture.

The "there is only going forward, not backward" mentality presented by Bob would not give you the Federation. At best, it would get you the Dominion, or at worst, the Borg.
Slight Star Trek autism: Troi explicitly tells Mark Twain (for those not familiar with Trek: yes, really), that everything good about their gay luxury space communist society came from the elimination of poverty.

Now you can argue that that makes no sense, that it completely misunderstands human nature, and also there are societies in Star Trek that have replicator access and still suck. But that was the official, in-universe explanation.

How this applies to Bob is left as an exercise for the reader.
 
Bob once more proves he's a crayon eating retard who only read when it had Bing Bing Wahoo. Kirby literally made the Eternals just because he wanted to make another batch of New Gods like he did at DC when he got sick of Lee's shit. It didn't work in comics, and from what the reaction was, it REALLY didn't work in film.

Bob is so mentally challenged and stunted that he's thinking that ancient aliens is a mindbending concept and not "Sci fi idea 101".

Hell, all this tells me is that even the Inhumans had hope for a better movie than this, since a Knightly Quest to Reclaim the Throne is a legit movie that could work. You could also bring back silent film acting with the protagonist and letting the zoomers and tards like Bob see what real old school was like.
