Page has been very vocal about gender and sexuality issues and rights for a long time. So in a way I think that helps because it makes this announcement part of a broader narrative.
So I donāt know who watches The Simpsons anymore, but I was definitely worried when I heard they were doing an episode about Cincinnati. I figured it would be 30 minutes of making fun of it, but I was wrong. It was surprisingly accurate in that Simpsons sort of way, and it wasnāt deprecating at all (ok, maybe a little), it was almost complimentary. Like, this is what the riverfront actually looks like:
And this place is iconic:
(sorry clovis, didnāt mean to reply to you personally, heh)
Amazing hahahahaha.
I was just rethinking his previous roles and feeling a little giddy at us reshaping our memories of his greatest works.
Juno was a commanding performance about a pregnant teenage girl by a trans man.
The best Kitty Pride came from a trans man.
Hard Candy takes on a new layer when that character is seen as a trans man. Or at least played by a trans man.
Hype!
Speaking on the recent conflict around whether to stream his stuff
This right after the Eliot Page posts made me think we needed to boycott Chapelle because of some anti-trans commentary he made. Little did I know itās not that at all!
eta: and I clearly didnāt read the sentence you wrote before the video
Iām a few episodes behind. This gives me an incentive to catch up.
Caught up Mando S2, doesnāt seem like a lot of people itt are watching?
In general, I think itās about as good as Star Wars can get. S2E5 alone has more compelling LS combat than anything in the last 3 movies put together. Am I supposed to hate baby Yodaās name or something? Itās not great but at least itās not fucking āsnokeā or Count Doodoo. Love the variety of worlds and species being explored. A bordering on A+. Iām not any kind of expanded universe reader, but Iām pumped for Thrawn.
Iām watching every Friday, I think itās awesome and Iām excited to watch each new one.
Canāt help but read about some of the spoilers and look forward to watching it. I donāt pay for D+ though, so no idea when Iāll be able to catch up.
Yāall good with splitting Mando into its own thread? No need for you to use spoilers there with such detailed discussion.
Le Thread
Just saw couple episodes of Schittās Creek and I wondered is this supposed to be funny? Feels like Arrested Development with a down syndrome and lobotomia.
What a nice way to describe something.
Thank you, I mean really thank you. That means a lot, coming from grand master of nice and meaningful posting.
I FINALLY finished Barry season 1! Loved it! Love Henry Winkler! Love Stephen Root!
One ep into season 2 and itās alreadyā¦eh
I couldnāt even get through the pilot episode.
We better update the Watch Party schedule omg
