Haruno Sakura and misogynistic ass fandomÂ
sakura haruno is one of the most hated chareters in naruto with her hate being so comically massive that it surprised the creator himself... but why ? what went wrong with sakura ?
I, in particular ,am not a fan of the way kishimoto wrote women in the manga or how shonen in general potrays female charechters. But the thing with sakura and misogyny is that it has more to do with the fandom than the author ,and if you ask me ,compared to how demented the fandom is ,kishimoto practically looks like a feminist icon . character criticisms dont bother me, but in the curious case of sakura alot of this âcriticismâ spirals down to very abbhorent misogyny.Â
starting right of the bat we have the dude-bros and self-projecting psycho's of the fandom, who hate her cause she's a shallow bitch(their main male charecter-onto whom they project- is a serial attention seeker btw , with being popular his main incentive in life) who likes the popular , good-looking guy and doesnt pay heed to the nice guy's advances dattebayo , no kidding -
i found it difficult to wrap my head around how this utterly gross misogynistic nonsense is so fucking common , it seems that sakura might have triggered their deep down incel by daring to want sasuke -and this also happens to be the reason why hinata is so popular amongst that particular crowd -because unlike that shallow bitch who rejected our nice guy, hinata worshiped his tiny err.."naru-chan"
 these wankers' try to paint hinata as the submissive waifu prototype (erasing even her little canon qualitites we get to see to fulfil there deraged fantasies) and just to cope with the fact that sakura rejected naruto , but err he got the plastic doll waifu , so all is well. they dont end it here though , they go on to elaborate how miserable and sad sakura's life and is that this is what she deserves for "choosing the emo" over the nice guy , while naruto apparently had a better ending for himself by "scoring" hinata .
it reminds me of this apallingly misogynistic meme-
you'll hope these deraged psychos end here , but they dont.Â
the next slandering is surprise! surprise! -sakura's looks
 because y'know naruto just had some dirt in his eye when he calls sakura cute. or even when making a remark on how incredibly beautiful haku is, sakura is the objective female beauty standard he compares him to, and the true hidden beauty in the series is hinata imao(the one whose been called weird, plain and crumpy throughout canon) or the inferiority at sakura's rejection and sasuke's obvious superiority to naruto is curbed by hyping up naruto's own looks saying (based on anime filler nonsense) that naruto "gets princess" and sasuke gets normal girls , while throughout the manga the only girl that shows any sort of romantic/sexual interest in naruto -is hinata (and the reason why she likes naruto has little to do w looks) , thats it , even when he becomes the messiah of the hidden village by making pain revive everyone-no girl is interested in him (I adore Kishimoto for doing this and not sticking to the sexist bs of these shallow bitches like our underdog nice guy only when he become popular GRR..GRR.., except for princess byakugan ofc- thennnn lo and behold ,studio peirriot uses this misogynist ass trope in "naruto:the last" , there is only a limit to keep rejecting you deranged fanbase i guess, sometimes one must comply for money)
these petty dumbsos dont even stop here, you though misogyny was enough? what about misogyny+sexualisation(of an UNDERAGE character) +body shaming ?
since sakura has commited the blashphemy of daring to reject naruto's advances (did you hear the recent news of a black woman getting hospitalized after she rejected a dude, becasue that turd was so pissed at her audacity that he threw a brick on her face or that gory case of junko furuta,may her soul be in peace,which is so sick i dont even want to delve into it), , dude-bros have to , no, NEED TO find ways to get back at her , uh? u rejected naruto? HAHAAH bish u flat
psychos , female charechters exist for girls to feel represented and not to serve as cumdumps for your repulsive incel mastrubatory fetishes.
sakura's own fandom has failed her in this regard with the net being bomabarded with sakura wankers' trying to prove their queen isnt flat, sizing her bosom from multiple angels across multiple panels so that she can finally fulfil her long impending destiny of actualizing the incel cumdump fetish
what is also curious is kishimoto doesnt comment anything on sakura's chest throughout the manga -he does add a panel of naruto's smol pp,and how naruto is insecure about it -NO one in canon says anything about anyone's bosom (excpet that creep jiraiya, but even he spares underage girls) and sakura almost never mentions any insecurity related to her boob size , she is insecure that she has big forehead, she is (perhaps) insecure about her weight that is why she skips her meal. heck even sai the roaster toaster with awfullly bad social boundries doesnt comment on it, but guess what? the fandom and SP does infact SP made a fucking full filler episode which is just sakura wanting big boobs and the comparisons of boobs from various koinichi's ranging from Tsunade, to tenten and ino, to shizune!)
why is this "boob measuring" so unique to sakura(and hinata -ill perhaps make a post on this sometime) why is no other female charecter subjected to this gross misogyny weird boob measuring contest,despite sakura not being the only girl who is flat chested- Tenten , Mikoto Uchiha and Shizune? well for one none of them has outright any interactions on level with naruto , second they dont irk anyone is any way - mikoto is also reduced to the trad sub wife prototype(she is what you'd say harmless, unlike the boisterous sakura, she is soft spoken , tends for the males areound her and doesn't err stand out), tenten and shizune are not even present in the narrative often and when they are , their words wrt to naruto are "safe" - they dont insult the main character , dont reject him dont make him look inferior so their boobs and body are spared
OH! just found another gem
incase you are unable to read it properly
-Rin is confessing to kakashi
-and half crushed obito is saying "wow bitch"
Yeah Rin !! how tf can you do that! imagine a 12 y/o confessing to her crush before she commits suicide for the "greater good" of her village , OMG !! you're such a bitch how dare you like else someone when my self-projection has a crush on you !!!! the gal!! the the audacity !!my virgin tradwife hinata so much better fr fr

J J Abrams also put this line in one of his movies:
And I quote: A character who has been alive long enough to know Storm Troopers can fly because heâs seen it:
They fly now?
A character who WAS a Storm Trooper and knew they can fly:
They fly now!
A character who has been fighting Storm Troopers since childhood:
They fly now.
J.J. Abrams is a director, not a writer. In fact he has never wrote a single movie heâs made. He directs shit, tells people were to go and how to do it and heâs good at that. What he fucking is not is a creator of any fucking kind on his sets. Abrams doesn't care about lore and continuity in his fucking movies, heâs just there to make a movie. So maybe next time think about the man who couldnât be fucking assed to ask a single living breathing human next to him, people who obviously love Star Wars because theyâre helping him Make A Star Wars Movie, if Storm Troopers flying was ever something that happened before this fucking moment in this universe just once in the entire 2 fucking years he spent trying to shit this massively unpleasant turd of a movie out of his asshole youâd understand that asking J.J. Abrams what Star Wars is about is like asking your mother why she decided to have you.
Neither fully know or care at this point.
Genuinely so embarrassing to be a r*ylo well into your thirties

5 Theories That Make Famously Bad Movies Awesome
Bad movies are everywhere â in theaters, on TV, and weâre reasonably sure that terrible script ideas constantly hover around Michael Bay like cartoon stink lines. But while itâs easy to shit all over these films, letâs take an affirmative approach for a change. If you use a heaping helping of positive thinking, some cinematic turds can become cinematic gold. Or, at the very least, semi-watchable. For example âŚ
5
Aliens Arenât The Real Bad Guys In The Alien Movies â Itâs AI
Alien: Covenant, which came out this past summer, isnât good. Even after audiences laughed at Prometheus for having a team of scientists act like Camp Crystal Lake counselors, Covenant somehow made its characters even stupider. People willingly shove their faces into slimy monster eggs and have steamy shower sex despite the fact that all their friends have been murdered. And remember how people criticized the Prometheus guys for recklessly taking off their space helmets on an uncharted planet? The Covenant crew throw on nothing but some windbreakers and floppy hats, as if their expedition is sponsored by J. Crew.
20th Century FoxWhich explains why theyâd risk everything to find the source of a fucking John Denver song.
Whatâs interesting about the movie, though, is that itâs establishing an elaborate creation mythology for the Alien series. Itâs basically a Bible story with vagina dentata monsters. Our first clue that things are about to get Biblical is that the ship is named Covenant, as in a pact with God, and it has an Ark-like load of couples to populate a new world. Also in the not-so-subtle Biblical allusions camp, James Franco is seemingly Space Jesus.
20th Century FoxWe regret to inform you that a Sony executive read that joke and greenlit Space Jesus, featuring James Franco.
The movie was originally subtitled Paradise Lost, a reference to John Miltonâs epic poem about Satan and the Fall of Man. Despite the name change, a lot of thatâs still in the movie. The android David rebelled against his human creators in Prometheus. By the time of Covenant, heâs killed all the Engineers, aka the alien species that genetically manufactured the human race. So yeah, David has killed âGodâ two times over, and has cobbled together an entire army of gross-out monsters, as Satan generally requires an army of high-grade slobs.
But more interesting than simply dabbling in familiar theological themes is the way this movie, in a sense, becomes a sacred text for the original Alien. If you think back, the villain of that film wasnât even really the alien â it was Ash the android, and to a lesser extent Mother, the shipâs computer which was presumably from Appleâs âUncomfortably Oedipalâ line of future operating systems.
20th Century Fox
20th Century FoxYou know Ash was made by Apple too, because his innards are a bunch of needlessly confusing proprietary cables.
With Covenant, we get to see the crazy ancestry behind that conflict. Ash is likely a descendant of David, who genetically engineered that black Flubber stuff into the alien in the first place.
20th Century FoxSo yeah, the movies are less Alien, more Handsome Robot Space Satan.
So the events of Alien arenât merely an incredible screw-up on the part of a space mining company; theyâre another example of AI trying to eradicate humanity with the alien, which we now see is a decades-old conflict. Also, if we view Alien as the primary story, and Prometheus and Covenant as religious texts, their crazy, nonsensical tone makes a little more sense. Which is why robot Michael Fassbender made out with another robot Fassbender. Exactly like in the Bible.

The Star Wars Prequels Are Far Better When You Realize The Jedi Are Supposed To Suck
Weâve certainly said some harsh things about the Star Wars prequel trilogy in the past, most of which involved the words âsteamingâ and âpile.â But you know what? Letâs go in a different direction for a moment and *takes a moment to regain composure* ⌠defend the prequels.
We all know the trilogyâs flaws â the movies feel like a high school drama class was inexplicably green-screened into Narnia. Part of the reason we all may have bristled at Episode I is that the Jedi we were so excited to finally see in action were kind of awful. They were dull, judgy douchebags, pretty much the intergalactic equivalent of the Shark Tank investors.
LucasfilmâA Padawan without even one ponytail? Get this filth out of our sight.â
But the story makes a little more sense when you realize that the Jedi are supposed to be flawed. Itâs an organization about to topple for a good reason. As Professor Joshua Sikora points out in a documentary all about defending the prequels, the biggest character arcs in the trilogy belong to Yoda and Obi-Wan, and you might not have even noticed it.
In The Phantom Menace, Qui-Gon whisks Anakin away from his home in Tatooine and his single mom, who has to stay behind and remain a slave. Quite messed up stuff for a series that was once about partying with teddy bears.
Lucasfilm
LucasfilmâSorry, your mom canât come to our massive Jedi temple with us. We already have a cleaning person, you see.â
At first, it seems like some crazy anomaly, as if Qui-Gon is the black sheep of the Jedi who keeps luring small children away from their homes ⌠until we realize that this is what the Jedi do. Yanking kids away from families is business as usual for them. That way, they can train the little tykes free of the distractions of love or home-cooked meals or rage-fueled political conversations.
LucasfilmEveryone who knew this was going on and didnât call Coruscant CPS is a monster.
In case you didnât notice, this doesnât go well. The Jediâs sloppy methods end up creating Space Hitler, and most of them get murdered. Hereâs the pivotal moment: At the end of Revenge Of The Sith, Luke and Leia are born. Theyâre the twin offspring of the Galaxyâs most midichlorian-filled individual. If anyone could be trained, itâs these two. But Yoda and Obi-Wan realize they totally fucked up. So in the end, to balance things out and make things right, they do the opposite of what they did in Episode I: They return a child to Tatooine.
Lucasfilm
LucasfilmâWatch over him you must, without leaving his side. Unless a spinoff prequel otherwise requires.â
The final shots of the movie show us that the best place for a child is with a loving family ⌠as opposed to, you know, space wizard cults. George Lucas himself has adopted three kids, so the message of prequels is ultimately a personal one. Of course, the twin who ended up at a desolate dirt farm instead of a goddamn royal palace kind of got the short end of the stick.
Lucasfilm
LucasfilmDonât worry, all the parental figures ended up dead, so it evens out.

Showgirls Is Filled With Mind-Boggling Symbolism
One of the most maligned movies of all time, the erotic drama Showgirls stars Elizabeth Berkley from Saved By The Bell and co-stars the death of every Saved By The Bell fanâs childhood innocence.
United ArtistsThe song she strips to was originally âIâm So Excited.â
But did Showgirls get an unfairly bad rap? At least one person thinks so. Critic Adam Nayman wrote a whole book about how underrated Showgirls is, and he makes some damn good points. For one thing, the sex-filled movie is also full of thematically consistent references to mirrors and doubles, as if Alfred Hitchcock got a gig at Cinemax.
When we first meet our protagonist Nomi, we immediately see that she aspires to become the lead dancer, Cristal, played by Gina Gershon. Nomiâs quest to become a different person is played out in the movieâs mirroring theme. When she first sees Cristal dance, she imitates her movements from the audience.
United Artists
United Artists
The movie is also full of literal mirrors. Whole conversations occur during which people are looking at each otherâs reflections:
United Artists

United ArtistsLooking at themselves in the mirror was a little more challenging, though.
The movie is also a mirror of itself, opening with Nomi hitchhiking into Vegas and ending with her leaving. She even gets picked up by the same guy:

The characterâs names also feed into this theme. âCristalâ refers to crystal, which obviously is a reflective surface, and âNomiâ should clue us into the existential dilemma of our hero, because her name sounds like âno me.â Yeah, and weâre only getting started. The movie also gets surprisingly meta. We all went into this thinking it was contrived to arouse straight men in the age of 56kb/s internet modems, but what happens in the third act? Thereâs not only a horrifying rape scene, but Nomi is also forced to go full Charles Bronson, avenging her friend and roundhouse-kicking the shit out of the rapist.
United Artists
United ArtistsâThis is for flaking on the Bayside Math Olympics! Wait, what movie am I in?â
Nomi is rejecting the toxic masculinity that we all thought was part and parcel of, well, Showgirls. She finds herself by breaking the confines of a two-dimensional character, and in the end, essentially decides to leave her own damn movie. Metaphorically, thatâs represented by her leaving Las Vegas, but to make it even clearer, the final shot is of her on a billboard that looks suspiciously like a movie advertisement:
United ArtistsThatâs right, Showgirls is the story of a Showgirls character realizing she doesnât want to be in Showgirls.

The Happening Is About The Societal Pressures Around Starting A Family
M. Night Shyamalanâs The Happening told the terrifying story of an epidemic of suicides, made all the more terrifying by the fact that the person in charge of untangling this killer problem is the founder of Wahlburgers. Itâs a stupid-as-hell thriller that almost killed the directorâs career. But what if it was supposed to be dumb? And what if, even in its dumbness, The Happening was all an elaborate allegory for the pressure to form a conventional family unit? Like American Beauty, but with more people being run over by lawnmowers.
Mark Wahlberg plays a high school science teacher, the kind whose lectures sound like a confused frat boy trying to quote Bill Nye. More to the point, he plays the part with the kind of annoying âOh jeezâ optimism youâd expect from a 1950s matinee idol ⌠which seems intentional. Why else dress the star of Boogie Nights in one of Urkelâs sweater vests?
20th Century FoxYou can tell which students have seen his rap videos because they canât make eye contact.
As the B-movie plot progresses, so does the camp value. In one hilarious moment, a woman busts out an iPhone to show Wahlberg footage of a lion tamer feeding himself to the lion as if itâs a YouTube cat video. Which it technically sort of is.
20th Century Fox
20th Century Fox
20th Century FoxThen they watch a dubstep remix of the same thing.
To truly appreciate The Happening, we need to pull apart its two metaphorical layers. The first is the more obvious environmental one. It turns out that the trees and plants are responding to humanityâs decimation of the Earth by releasing a toxin that kills us off, specifically in areas with nuclear facilities. This in itself is a throwback to the B-movies of the â50s and â60s, which took fears of atomic power and turned them into genre terrors.
20th Century FoxToday, instead of nuclear plants, the all-killing menace would be âMillennials.â
And it doesnât get any more ridiculous than the fact that the movieâs villain is a slight breeze â less the stuff of Hollywood wide releases, and more like if a group of teenagers tried to make a horror movie using stock footage from a nature documentary.
20th Century Fox
20th Century FoxAnd not that good Planet Earth shit.
Then thereâs a secondary theme: that of the pressures of marriage and family. We learn that Wahlberg and his wife, played by Zooey Deschanel, have been fighting over whether or not to have a baby. When the âhappeningâ happens, theyâre forced to go through the paces of the life of a âtraditionalâ married couple. Whatâs their first move? Get out of the city and head to the suburbs. And then they have a kid! They take care their friendâs daughter after he dies.
20th Century FoxâAnd by âus,â I mean specifically the white people.â
Then they go house-hunting, a theme underscored by the fact that the first place where they seek shelter is a model home for sale.
20th Century FoxThey tragically bypass the DeLorean stashed behind the sign.
They end up having to go live with a crazy old lady â which seems out of nowhere in the plot of the movie, but in terms of this metaphor, she is a surrogate senile parent they have to tend to later in life.
20th Century Fox
20th Century FoxâWeâll just send you away so we donât have to watch you slowly die!â
And how do they eventually win? They stop giving a shit about the toxic air, and instead of separating (the working theory on how to avoid the toxin), the couple come together and the deaths magically stop. Itâs as if the â50s-era horror story was pushing these two into embracing â50s-era values. In the final scene, we see that theyâve decided to embrace their marriage, have a baby, and presumably spend their remaining Saturdays bickering with each other at Costco. Otherwise the worldâs plants will murder them.

Batman v. Superman Is All About King Arthur
Batman v. Superman: Dawn Of Justice is a crazy mess of a movie, from its depiction of the Dark Knight branding criminals like a cattle rancher to a Superman who broods like a 13-year-old whose parents wonât let him go see My Chemical Romance. But you can kind of appreciate it more when you understand where Zack Snyder is coming from. Specifically, Camelot.
Apparently, one of Snyderâs favorite movies of all time is the 1980s King Arthur flick Excalibur â aka that movie in which Helen Mirren is a dry-ice-filled sorceress. In fact, Batman v. Superman signals that the epic sword-and-sorcery movie is going to be an influence right off the bat (pun not intended) by showing Excalibur in the very first scene, on the marquee at AMCâs less-popular Crime Alley location.
Warner Bros. PicturesâHalf-price on matinee shows! DISCLAIMER: Youâll definitely get murdered.â
Knowing that Excalibur, a film full of villainous plotting and insane dream sequences, is the touchstone here really helps you acclimatize to the movieâs tone. Not only does the movieâs broad, melodramatic story and multitude of prophetic dreams start to make a little more sense, but the references get even more explicit. In the end, Batman becomes a literal knight in armor:
Warner Bros. Pictures
Warner Bros. PicturesWay to drop the ball by not including Bat-Horse, Snyder.
And Batman pulling a glowy green sword out of some stone also comes straight out of Excalibur.
Warner Bros. Pictures
Warner Bros. Pictures
Warner Bros. PicturesTheory: Everyone who couldnât pull it out is a distant Kryptonian descendant.
Lois Lane has to later retrieve the Kryptonite spear, because sheâs a stand-in for the Lady in the Lake. (And hey, they even have the same initials, more or less.)
Warner Bros. Pictures
Warner Bros. PicturesThis also probably explains why the movie feels the need to show us Lois in a bathtub at one point.
As discussed on Entertainment Weeklyâs podcast, Excalibur (the sword) is ultimately used to slay the true enemy, with the hero impaling themselves to get to the bad guy, which is almost exactly what happens at the end of Batman v. Superman:
