Just a reminder that the reason Marvel uses so much seemingly pointless CGI is that digital labor isn’t unionized so they can cut costs by shooting literally everything in front of green screens and then mercilessly exploit precarious digital labor.

Art is not a zero sum game, and there is nothing wrong with superhero movies. The only problem, as Hawke explains with such breathtaking eloquence, is that we're moving into a monoculture where only one kind of movie gets to even exist.

The playbook is simple: 1) say you're against a bad thing that everyone's already against 2) accuse your enemies of doing the bad thing 3) anyone who criticizes your group is now suddenly in favor of the bad thing

Biggest spontaneous anti-racism demonstration I can remember seeing in the Netherlands *ever*, and all Dutch white liberals can do is whine about the crowd being too big for responsible social distancing. I swear, this fucking country...
