'Bad Teacher' - A Wannabe 'Bad Santa'

“Bad Teacher” so desperately wants to be a devious black comedy like “Bad Santa” but for teachers. Depressingly, it doesn’t even come close to reaching such devilishly hilarious heights. Despite some good laughs sprinkled throughout, this movie is a surprising bore with few surprises up its sleeve. You can see things coming long in advance, and the punch line deflates very quickly. Cameron Diaz,…

Jim Breuer reveals that the names on the Epstein list are so powerful and influential that their exposure could bring down governments and topple the entire entertainment industry worldwide. 🤔

Y’all are aware we probably have to keep it in the top 10 overall into at least the 19th right? One business day after initial intended marketed advertised release supposedly. Then we should be good unless Mark says otherwise.

Sometimes I leave this site to see what is out there, the only other social media I am on is YouTube and occasionally I will stumble upon a piece of twilight related content there.

Now when I am out in the wild like that I try to be as chill and normal about twilight as possible and one thing that always baffles me about finding twilight content out there is how little mention of the Quileute tribe there is.

Be it reading vlogs of the books, movie commentaries, memorabilia collections etc. unless it's like an in depth video essay on why twilight is problematic barely anyone takes care to mention the tribe, acknowledge the harm twilight has done to them or remind viewers that there are opportunities to donate. It baffles me.

I don't know how much of a bubble thing this is, but if I go on tumblr all the twilight blogs I follow will regularly mention the Quileutes, they will reblog donation links and own voices accounts of the damage twilight has done to the community. I regularly see posts breaking down reproduced stereotypes of Native Americans in twilight and so on.

That is what being a fan of twilight should entail in my opinion and when I spend a lot of time in this small corner of the internet it makes me feel like this fandom has grown quite a lot. It's sometimes feels defeating going out there and seeing videos with tens of thousands of views that never utilize that platform to help support a community that is in large parts responsible for the success of twilight in the first place.

I don't know where I am going with this. Donate to the Quileute tribe and don't encourage people to give money to Stephenie Meyer anymore.

you guys know the 1920s and 30s existed before v*vziepop right

personally I think the best thing that the joker sequel did for me was expose the exact degree to which how much of internet/public criticism is not based on genuine analysis of the content using social and cultural resources to support an actual argument but is actually adult children whining because someone took their batman toys and put them up on a high shelf for once and they, as a consumer, feel like they're entitled to throw a tantrum about it

Did you know that Sting inspired the character John Constantine?!

Actually I think it's the other way around. That Sting character is a shameless recolor.

How did they do computer graphics in 1927, when there were no computers?

At the end the face changed to a woman's face. The film Metropolis, year 1927. 🤔

So when I was a child, I got Ranger Rick every month. It's a magazine for children designed to teach them about animals and nature. I was a tiny little nerd living in a heavily wooded area back then, so I loved it!

I had this exact issue lmao.

The mascot of this magazine was the eponymous Ranger Rick, a cute raccoon forest ranger who taught kids about nature.

This is what he looked like when I was a kid getting the magazine in the mid-90s.

Look how friendly and soft and dashing he looked!!! Ultimate nature educator for kids!

He got a redesign when I was around ten, which was a little odd, but I was getting a little too old for RR at that point, so I guess I didn't mind that much. That was about when we left Ohio, so I wasn't getting as much time in nature anyway.

Sorry that he's grainy, there are not that many images of early 2000s Rick on the internet. I think they were trying to make him feel more relatable, like he was a child instead of a ranger teaching them. Or at least a more casual teacher...? Not sure how well that worked.

I remember thinking the redesign was kind of pointless as a child, but this was around when my mom lost her job and we didn't have the money for things like magazine subscriptions anymore. I stopped getting the magazine and the design became kind of a moot point, but I still had beloved memories of Ranger Rick.

So imagine my surprise when I see a recent image of Rick and... oh.

Oh no... Look how they've massacred my boy... Look at those soulless eyes... That skinny little body that does not look huggable at all... Like I guess I'm glad that he's gone back to being more obviously a ranger, but like... the Flash of it all...

But. But I guess I should be grateful for what we have. He might be kind of soulless now, but look what they tried to launch a few years ago:

Jesus fucking christ.

Reminder for if you ever see a celebrity in person: please treat them like a human being

I’m at Sundance 2024 rn and the other day I walked past a VERY visibly flustered Dylan O’ Brien being absolutely swarmed by fans trying to take selfies with him as he was trying to walk down the street.

Obviously I’m not trying to put words in anyone’s mouths or speak for all celebrities, just as a general rule, be fucking normal.

Early George Lucas film. Prophetic!

im gonna be honest after the initial shock and hours long conversation that would happen, Jeff Morales would absolutely force miles to put on his suit and film informational videos about stranger danger and self-defense after learning he’s spiderman
