Half of these nerds wouldnt be nearly as aggressive and accusatory in real life. in addition, these folk are so entrenched in political commentary and concern trolling that theyve completely become unable to distinguish an actual opinion from an auto-generated talking point. Just look at how many people try to discredit you with The original Candyman was political! No one is even attempting to take your critique seriously.

The audience of a horror movie no doubt appreciates the kills as a spectacle.

SergeantGander 09/08/21 1:23:36 PM #165:	I dodon'know how derailed this topic has gotten, but in TCs original post it seems like he is upset with the browbeating nature of the social commentary.. Personally, I really love movies that make you think. That bring you through the movie and then connect the dots at the end to make you go "oh shoot this is about X thing..." But lots of more modern movies kind of stress the commentary before they get the movie right. Then we're left with a cleary political statement and a shoddy movie, rather than a great film that subtly and artfully communicates a message. --- LoL IGN: MsRaffensperger ~Dennis~ <cite>SergeantGander posted [p:957850528] in The new Ca...

I have nothing to lose by saying the movie is bad, no one knows who I am outside of a few select people here. Critics however, have to deal with online backlash and Twitter hate mobs if they don't like something or get specific about why it's politics were hacky. We saw the same thing when no one could give a negative Black Panther review without being called a "racist". And that movie was forgettable at best --- Getting girls is all about honesty.

Politics aren't going to stay out of media because they've always been ingrained into media, OP. This is like when gamers demand politics stay out of Metal Gear Solid or comic readers demand politics stay of of the new Watchmen series. Politics - and this may shock you - has always greatly influenced various forms of media. Edit: And don't worry, OP. I don't think you're a troll. Just really really silly I'm silly because I don't like it when politics in movies aren't handled well and have no subtlety? The original film was smart with it's social commentary and presented a non biased and honest view on race relations. The new one was brain dead and did not.

Why would I pretend to be a black guy and a black woman on a dying message board that I've had an account on for 15 years? I've already verified my identity on here.
