Imagine there was an extremist group made up of Sioux native people that had radical ideas and decided to perform a cowardly act of terrorism at an event and killed hundreds of non-native people in the process. That would be absolutely tragic and such an act should never be condoned.

Now, how weird would it be if the government decided it was going to retaliate by carpet-bombing North Dakota to hell.

That would be an odd overreaction, right? 🤔

Yeah, that was fucked up too. 😕

In America? No. Using military force requires congressional approval and there are far too many innocent civilians in ND. That would never get approved. That's my point.

(former Israeli soldier) has posted a lengthy post on IG in support of Israel. The problem? She refers to HAMAS as a 'Palestinian military group' instead of the extremist terrorist group that everyone knows they are.

This (combined with her previous comments about the conflict) just cements her bigotry against the Palestinians. I know it's a tough time right now, but this kind of rhetoric can't go unchecked. Can we STOP putting her in stuff, please. 😕

HOW WORKS:

BH makes 12 movies a year. Each costs $5 million or less.

50% are expected to lose $350K.
25% break even.
15% make a little money.
10% of them are break out hits (like M3gan) that pay for all the losses and return a huge profit.

The end result is domination of the genre and happy fans.

Correction: That's pretty much how the entertainment industry SHOULD work. A lot of studios haven't figured this out and give massive budgets to movies that shouldn't have them.

Where's the fun in that? 😂

@johnlogic
I bet you're fun at parties. 🍻

Yeah, making movies is a huge gamble. One bad film can KILL a smaller studio for good.

To my friends across the pond...The series adaptation of Anne Rice's Interview With The Vampire finally comes to the UK this week. 🩸HIGHLY recommend it! 👍

So, reportedly has a budget of $215M.

Let's say they spend about $150M for advertising (standard for blockbuster films).

If they want to make a profit, they need to clear the hurdle of $700M worldwide.

Considering made $270M and lost reportedly well-over $200M...

Things are not looking too good for the miscast fish man. 🤔

*See below for a picture of Momoa standing next to the better casting choice. 😎

jacklaridian, to random

So, I guess this entire fucking cast is just a bunch of assholes? Way to go, Zack Snyder. Great job casting. 😕

jacklaridian,

@notsometony
Well, let's see. Momoa drunk on set, Cavill is a sexist pig (according to multiple sources), Miller is a menace, Gadot is anti-Palestine, the cyborg guy made up lies he 'heard from other people' about racism on set he had to later retract...

and Affleck is just a doushbag. Never liked that guy. 😂
