Damn, no international support on this one from shit hole china. Good thing it was cheap to make, so if it only hits around 300 million domestic, thats still a win. Hopefully places outside of china will show big support for the movie.
Itâs a cheap movie clearly aimed to the American audience, I donât think they sorely miss the Chinese release, they probably werenât even counting on it to begin with.
I didnât know movie makers cared so much about China. I guess that explains why they refused to make the ancient one from the dr. strange movie from Tibet. Sucks.
hahaa
I will give you the benefit of the doubt and say you seem to be ignoring that fact that there is a difference between sexuality and sex. Sexuality is largely a mental state and can involve an expression of that mental state or simply a response to such an expression. Sexuality is expressed through thoughts, feeling and values and not just specific activities as you seem to imply. Film is a vehicle through which artistic expressions are *actually *made (not just pretending to be made, hahaa). I shouldnt have to explain this to a functional human - or even a parrot who shouts things to feel good about himself.
Violence is different. Its definition leaves no vagaries. It is pure action. And violence on the silver screen is fake, pure and simple.
You dont need real sex and nudity to portray actual sexuality nor to evoke real feeling of sexuality in a viewer. Nudity on the silver screen is, in fact, usually real and not fake. However, even if the nudity is fake, the sexuality therein can be real. But not all nudity is necessarily sexual. Do you get it? If not, dont worry, you will one day.
âŚThink about it: When you see ryan reynolds as deadpool shooting people up you dont get all angry and want to kill people, you either get all smiley and laugh or you dont. On the other hand if you see his loyal wifey with that olive complexion start to disrobe, you might just get a little randy, foreal, and dip out and call your sidepiece. Unless you dont have one, which would explain why you seem so frustrated and resort to name calling so quickly. Or maybe Ryan Reynolds really does do it for you, I dont judge. Either wayâŚJoanna Kerns⌠https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L1fcB3QlW_g
Just because fake events evoke real emotions doesnât mean the thing on the screen is real. Also lots of people get angry or disgusted or repulsed by violence, just as others are touched or made randy by sexuality, doesnt mean the things happening on screen are real. The ideas communicated are real, but the actions used to communicate them are not, they are staged, its pretend in order to evoke a response.
You can talk all the philosophical shit you want, at the end of the day movies are fake, and the things that happen within them are fake, even if they provoke genuine responses.
Well you missed the entire point which was to understand that sexuality is not an âeventâ or action. Likewise, having a visceral response (pro or con) to violence does not equate to one being violent (not analogous to sexuality). Likely related to your inability to process plain english, your thought process seems rather clouded. Allow me to point to the following:
So you are saying that because an action is staged that it does not actually happen? You seem to have contorted yourself into a paradox there. Are you saying that because the intent behind the action is disingenuous that the action itself is nullified? If so then, this opens a lot of doorsâŚlaws of god and of man be damned
hahaa
I only remember SRK shitheads saying that TBPH. Most of the other sites I frequented and word of mouth in my area was more along the lines of âThat Samuel L. Jackson movie looks kinda out of there, I might go see it for shits and giggles if I have nothing else going on that weekend.â
Apparently at the fan event yesterday people were shouting out ideas for Deadpool 2, when Cableâs name was mentioned Reynolds responded âYour lips to Godâs ears, my friend. Believe me, thatâs being talked about.â
(It would be weird if Cable hadnât been talked about by this point given how this entire movie is essentially Ryan Reynoldsâs fanboy project at this point given how much he actually likes the character.)
Not that Iâm surprised given who posted it, but thereâs an immense irony in saying I donât understand the different between sex and sexuality & acting like I was talking about sex when I clearly talking about sexuality and pointing why itâs also âfakeâ in movies, without even getting into the fact that people tend to be turned on by different things and/or people. By the same token of your flawed argument, people similarly tend to be far more forgiven for on-screen infidelity than they would be in real life, in part because they also arenât personally wronged but also because itâs fake; the sole exception here seems to be âshippersâ, but we ignore those people. Finally, sexuality supposedly properly relating to readily manipulated movie ratings rapidly deflates as an argument if youâre supposedly judging whatâs proper by âwell, people could be turned on thisâ since any sexual references outside of out-and-out nudity accompanied by graphic sex tends to fly over childrenâs heads anyway until puberty, to say nothing of the fact that PG-13 movies previously showed way more sexual stuff than what gets shown in PG-13 nowadays.
Itâs whatever though.
Well, this will certainly hurt any box office stuff, which doesnât make me any more hopeful. Not that it matters all that much, though, given âfuck Chinaâ is what one should always be saying anyway, so this just becomes another reason to do so.
Infidelity is a in movies is fake. Infidelity is not analogous to sexuality here. The sexuality in movies is real whether or not the events depicted are genuine or not. I seem to be wasting my time.
Hahaa. The âif-a-tree-fell-and-no-one-was-around-to-hear-it,-did-it-make-a-soundâ argument, is not a valid argument.
But true. The sexuality (and violence) quotient was MUCH higher in the PG movies when I was a kid than the PG-13 movies nowadays. Not that this refutes my argument in any way (youâre kindof all over the place there, I dont know where you are going with this). Times were different, the ratings system was just getting started. Parents were expected to research before bringing their kids. Nowadays people want to be protected by bureaucracies. Nobody wants to do any legwork, and worse than that nobody wants to even think critically anymore. Just check the ratings and parrot some BS you heard somewhere; Living.
