Russell Wilson throwing a pick at the 2 yard line against the Pats. Nuff said.

Hmm I've never felt the need to scream an outdated slur at my TV in an attempt to feel superior to a black man who is imaginably more successful than I ever will be, but I can imagine how an insecure white person whose skin color is his only redeeming quality would not be able to resist doing so!

Russell Wilson was a virgin until last year. I would not call him successful.

I think this is precisely "what happened." So many people can see her love of self completely overshadowing a love of country. At least Trump didn't hide that fact, I guess.

I already think the dragon stuff is silly. like 15 years ahead of you guys on that one.

anyway uh I assume he's talking about costumes and set. and to be fair the costumes in this show are still pretty good. although I'm not sure if they are still as good as they have been in previous seasons. too lazy to go back and make direct comparisons at this point since my enthusiasm for the show is at an all time low.

They literally cut up an IKEA rug to make Jon snow's cloak

Everyone is going to look back on this in 10 years and feel really silly.

As opposed to other CG which is timeless? It isn't disney obviously

No, but certain things are still impressive technically. GoT is the most basic, uninspired, run-of-the-mill CGI I have ever seen. They just threw money at lazy graphic designers and told them to make dragons but there is clearly zero creativity and it makes me rage harder than anything on this terrible show that people think it looks good.

Watch Jurassic Park if you want to see timeless CGI effects done right and with passion and love.

What's depressing the most is how much objectively good work does go into the show. The people in charge of makeup, CGI, set design, casting, music, etc. are almost universally doing incredible jobs. The issues with the show are almost 100% traceable to writing, and sometimes directing and acting. Those should be the least difficult/expensive parts to get right compared to the massive technical work that 90% of the crew work on.

The CGI work is straight up embarrassing and the cast isn't making up for the awful writing so I have no idea what this post is about

I don't know what the employment in acting situation is, so I have no opinion, really. Person can do whatever he wants

Without context, I guess it does feel like it could be a moral judgment from him. Is he implying that Idris elba should have stepped down from playing the gunslinger, or is it more about the volume of acting rules available to minorities?

No because in the SJW mind, you are only racist if you're white

Comic nerds, what do you think? Seems like insane masochism to be a good SJW on the surface, but who knows. Is this character's race important to the plot or something? Does this mean we can never have a black Batman? Give me your hot take.



My hot take is that I don't think a black Batman would work. I think Bruce coming from upper crust white Gotham is an important contrast to demonstrate the creature comforts he's eschewing in his endless quest for justice.

I suppose there could be a black Batman after Bruce that he passes the mantle to. Maybe something there.

Diddy would be a perfectly realistic Bruce Wayne

Nah, at this rate it'll end with Arya killing Cersei and then besting Jamie in a duel while saying something like "that's what I call GIRL POWER" and then Jon and Dany declaring that Westeros is now a democracy or something. Oh and like someone said before, Maester Sam chronicling the whole thing post-credits.
