#theres a difference between critique and being a dick

[grimmgrinningghouls]

Kay listen I get the whole 'acknowledge flaws and dont tear people down who critique this media' I really do. But like. Flaws are only as prevalent in media as you let them be and they only bother you as much as you let them. Yes, its good to say "yeah. it has flaws" but its valid if you just dont want to dwell on them after that.

If you dont want to see other people critique it then block them. There are always going to be bad takes and objectively bad media. But still like. People are allowed to just not care abt it too. I dont like to sit down and write entire posts critiquing things, if you do thats ur thing but I just...dont care lol. It varies case to case but a lot of stuff just doesn't bother me.

I go "oh. They could've done XXX thing better. anyways" and move on.

The difference between the gender gap on dsmp and qsmp is that dsmp was an informal server where Dream invited friends or friends of friends. He also didn't invite large ish groups at once to join.

Whereas qsmp has a management team behind it, with groups of five added for the two new languages and presumably other languages (also I've heard Qs been in chats of german streamer begging them to join and basically pressuring the streamer into talking about it because chat then get sidetrack). Like Q had a plan for the server, theres an admin team and things that have to be planned out. Yet there was one woman initially and in the two times more people have been added, only one has been a woman. He told Forever that his team finds people, but like, he has to approve it. He can tell them to add more women if he actually cared. But it's not about diversity, its finding streamers with good numbers to add. And qsmp fans will try to add the eggs to the gap (which barely does anything to it) as if the eggs are essentially npcs that are supposed to leave.

Q fans will use the dsmp as a gotcha without realising that it was a criticized point for years. And dream did add more non male players and guess what, lore freaks drove new players away. Qsmp fans are literally the boobers of the qsmp divorce, who think they're better and try to seperate themselves from dsmp and end up being worse

this is really beautiful anonnie. i didnt consider that management point either because i dont really keep up with this aside from what the occasional person on the tl says about it but thats a good point. everything surrounding qsmp enjoys the freedom from critique dsmp and previous servers had against them which should be a sign of progress but it really isnt because the problems still exist which is fucked up! and going back to what i said initially its even worse because q sucks his own dick about the diversity on the server. even acknowledging his comment on it being a living breathing project its just so obviously not about the diversity or bringing communities together or whatever bullshit. fuck lore too just give me people hanging out on minecraft it does not need a whole production #slutsmps2

The Lego Batman Moviewould never skip leg day. Never.

The new movie which is fantastic also doesnt skip a beat during more than 90 minutes of jokes and references, some even at the expense of its parent studio, Warner Bros. Its padre, as Robin might say. Its papa.

The infamous moment happens later in the movie. Before heading off to save Gotham, Batman takes a shot at another Warner Bros. movie, Suicide Squad, saying that using criminals to fight criminals is a dumb idea.

Suicide Squad, though a commercial success, was berated by critics, a fact thats not lost on Warner Bros., nor the moviescast and director. Lego Batman throwing shade at its own makes the moment stand out from the rest.

And people noticed:

The Huffington Post talked with director Chris McKay about the surprising moment. He said Lego movies are all about getting away with stuff:

I cant remember if that was one we really had to run up the flagpole or not, or just the executives who were on the movie saw it and were OK with it, but that was just us kind of riffing in a voice booth, said McKay. It was me [writer] Jared Stern and Will Arnett. It was one of those things where we gave Will an idea, and he took it and made it his own. I love working with him. Hes amazing, but being able to get away with stuff I think is kind of one of the things we do well in all of the Lego movies. You feel like youre sort of getting away with it.

In an interview with Build Series, the director also commented on the matter, saying, Because were approaching these characters and this movie with a lot of love, people kind of let us do some things that maybe we couldnt do.

Will Arnett, the voice of Lego Batman, also chimed in, saying, Its kind of incumbent upon us in this position as the in a certain way, as the absurdist Batman, to take those shots. If we dont, then were sort of missing our own point.

In addition to talking with HuffPost about the Suicide Squad jab, McKay also cleared up some of the movies unanswered questions:

In the movie, Dick Grayson (later Robin)asks Bruce Wayne if he should get experimental surgery on his eyes to make him more appealing. Does he get the surgery?

No, I think hopefully Batman and Bruce Wayne persuaded him from doing that.

Robin calls Batman tons of variations of father. How many different words for father did you go through?

There were a lot more. We had to cut [some]. At one point, we even translated Hebrew. We used all languages we possibly could to say father. But it was one of those jokes where we have to keep the movie moving. But, at one point, I think we recorded Michael Cera doing everything.

Will Batman ever get to hang out with lady activewear models?

We know hes hung out with ballerinas in Christopher Nolan movies. Yeah, I think in a sequel. The thing were looking at with every one of these movies is hes got a different girlfriend.He has very limited relationships. Theres an expiration date on his relationships. Its always something like that. I really wish, in a future movie, we can see Batman hang out with lady activewear models.

Ralph Fiennes, Voldemort in the Harry Potter movies, voices Alfred in Lego Batman. This movie has an appearance by Lego Voldemort (Eddie Izzard). Was there any talk of getting Fiennes to voice Lego Voldemort?

[Fiennes] is great, and hes amazing to work with. Yeah,at one point I wanted to do that and suggested it to the studio. Fora coupleof reasons we decided not to, but I think the main one was unless youre gonna put Alfred and Voldemort in a scene together, unless youre gonna do something with it … its going to end up on the cutting room floor. I think thats kind of the main reason why we didnt do that. I think also J.K. Rowling was really generous obviously in letting us use Voldemort and Dumbledore in the first movie. I dont wanna step on too much of what theyre doing.

Did J.K. Rowling have to approve Lego Voldemort?

Yeah,not on the cast, but just to show her the stuff we were doing, and she was super positive and really helpful and actually gave us spells that we should use.

Why does Batman always have a deep voice?

When you boil Batman down, he stopped developing when he was a little kid, so everything he does is what a little kid would think is scary. Its like, How do you stop crime? OK, Im gonna learn karate. Im gonna dress up like a giant bat, and Im going to scare criminals with my big scary voice. I think that is the solution of a child to a real problem. I love Batman. I think its kind of funny to take a step back and look at our heroes and find some kind of loving critique.

Is there anything scarier than snake clowns?

The only other thing [is] in dreams, you can add to that waking up naked at a test. Being late for a test and you dont have any clothes. I think that would probably the scary dream triumvirate between clowns, snakes and nudity.

How important is it not to skip leg day?

You gotta even it out. Actually, youll fall over, so you gotta get your legs. People try to blow it off, but it really is important.
