This is probably my biggest problem with it. You have to have 60 year old Batman stories fresh in your mind to even understand some of the concepts.

Between this, the Shift, the Boy and the Heron, and the Christmas story re-release, I am actually unsure if I will get around to seeing all the movies I want to this month.

I don't even remember the last time that's happened lol.

The book this new Hunger Games is based on was actually pretty solid, it is worth a read for anyone interested.

I feel like the YA novel-to-movie thing died forever ago, this movie feels like it would have came out 10 years ago.

Personally, I skipped this movie because of main actress and the trannie.

They are some good ones out there. Father Stu is a recent one that is really well done.

Creative types have been left-leaning for a long time now, even before the current "wokeness" trend, so it's hard to find media that goes too far right.

The closest thing I can think of would probably be a lot of Christian movies. They often become so preachy and heavy-handed it impacts my enjoyment of them.

I agree. Most people in creative work have been left-leaning for decades, even before politics infected everything. The problem is how they have let it infect their work, to the point it compromises any sort of good story.

As long as his story is clear of it, I can separate the creator and the work enough to still find enjoyment in it.

I googled it, and I couldn't find anyone calling hellboy woke besides the image someone linked. I also looked up the comics on those free comics sites and skimmed them, and there was nothing really obvious at least.

I will probably go ahead and at least finish BPRD. It sucks about Mignola though. I don't know why these comics creator continue to divide an already increasingly small fanbase. No wonder American comics are on their last legs.

I wasn't on Twitter at that time, I only used it once Musk bought it.

Yeah, I will probably steer clear of really recent stuff.

Is BPRD OK up until it's conclusion in 2019 though?

I looked and scrolled back like 2 months, and outside of the fact he is from LA, I didn't see anything liberal or even political. Am I missing something?

One of the greatest issues of Spider-man ever in my opinion.

Might sound silly, but I think Shrek is a really good example.

Ogre's are typically associated as being evil, but it quickly shows that's not who Shrek is.
The movie continues this theme when you meet the princess. While at first you would think her and Shrek have nothing in common, but again it shows not to judge by appearances, showing the princess isn't who you would expect.

That is the blue fairy from the Pinnochio remake.

Looks like a man in drag.

"If not for my cat and weed I'd be in a real dark place right now."

Lol. Losing your son and your father doesn't put you in a dark place, but losing your cat or weed would be too much? You guys ever notice how most of these trannies also tend to be really selfish? They care more about attention and material things than actual relationships with people.

I almost saw this at the theater, but I (luckily) decided to read Plugged In Online's review just to make sure it had no gay shit. After I saw that I decided not to go. A shame too, as despite being a giant liberal, Hanks is a great actor, and I always have enjoyed watching him.

For myself, I am looking forward to Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer and Cobra Kai season 6.

Nolan usually has really neat visual effects, and the plots are complex in a neat way. I think he's one of the last great directors in Hollywood. The all-star cast is great to see as well.

Corny as it is, Kobra Kai is usually really fun, and is one of the few legacy shows that actually feels like to caters to fans of the original. Excited to see how it wraps up.

If you actually read his comments, he specifically brings that up, and talks about how he regrets it and he shouldn't have done it.

I agree. Spider-man for example has sucked since One More Day, and that happened all the way back in '06.

Marvel as a whole has sucked since about that time too. The continuity is awful, every new run just resets everything, so nothing ultimately matters. Writers always try to outdo each other with big events that radically change things, only for things to go very quickly back to status quo.

Woke is the biggest problem, but the continuity is another major one, and it's been that way for a while. It probably started in the mid-nineties when shock-value stories became big (clone saga, death of superman, etc.) But it seemed better by late-90s early 2000s, only to go downhill again in the mid-to-late 2000s.
