Let's make a thread to discuss, review and analyze tv shows. Everybody is binging something these days.
Argue about dvd commentaries, Post your thesis on King of the Hill, Reminisce about a tv show you used to watch but don't quite remember it's title. Just about anything related to shows. Post your highscore on those Ben 10 CN flash games. Anything goes.

Watched Last of Us season 2 episode 2… Shit stressful and somewhat depressing.


Inb4: Last of Us game writers took inspiration from Israel/Palestine conflict but in a questionable way
inb4 2: Last of Us TV co-showrunner made Chernobyl which was anti-commie propaganda

(although in season 1 a character said the commune is basically communism in a positive way)

The USSR considered it self as lower-stage socialism building towards Communism. So anti-soviet propaganda it still counts as anti-communism.

The real anti-communism are McCarthyism and Pinochetism, not anti-Sovietism. Even communists can be anti-Soviet.

See, I knew they were libs. Fuck 'em and their lamenting about their dying consoomer culture.

Furthermore for context, The Women in the Yard either not playing in China or not making money in China):

- It seems to be a supernatural ghost/spirit film. China has banned superstition before or put disclaimers in supernatural stories
(which may have to do with China's history such as superstition during the Century of Humiliation (look up "supernatural Boxer Rebellion"),
and Indonesian communists getting killed because CIA told civilians that commies are having Satanic blood sacrifice orgies, which some say was an influencing factor for China's decision to launch a Cultural Revolution)

- China limits the amount of foreign movies allowed each year, I doubt this low-key unknown supernatural film would get in over stuff like blockbusters such as Godzilla



PS. Alien Romulus was allowed and made lots of money in China and it was shown uncensored! A sci-fi horror was allowed!

Lets adresse some points

<why are horror movies flopping

the real world is slowly turning into one, there is less demand for fictional scary, when there is so much real scary.

<Chinese people don't watch movies with actors that have a dark skin tone.

This could just be a made up psy-op to bias the media industry against China.
If this is true, that is unfortunate, but as long as they are not actively discriminating against people, not wanting to watch a movie can't be racism.
We have an anti-warmonger bias, so we assume that China, Russia, Iran, Cuba, Venezuela,… bad is false by default unless proven otherwise.

<People lacking the discretionary budget to buy movie tickets

Well look at it this way the economy is producing surplus and that can be spend on a number of things. The neocons are popping a roughly 50 million dollar drone about once a week over Yemen, that's 10 indie-movies per week evaporating in the sky. If you go look at the amount of money that was burned in Ukraine … that's more indie movies you could ever watch.

That's it. We as a society have peaked when this show came out. It was all downhill from there.

This show is what comes up in my mind when I think of the dirtbag left. It's not preachy, not "woke," not anti-white, not misandrist. But most importantly, it portrays black Americans as human beings with realistic flaws that you can relate to or at least understand. This show would not have come out the same today because it wasn't above criticizing the African-American community, it wasn't afraid of calling out real sexism and homophobia within it, it wasn't afraid of criticizing the glorification of the thug lifestyle within the black youth and it ruthlessly mocked Black "Entertainment" Television for stupifying black masses. The show, created by a black communist, was constantly censored for offending white liberal sensibilities. But it also made fun of racism too and showed just how ridiculous it was with the character of Uncle Ruckus. Not only that, but it had a brilliant episode that humanizes gay people (must-watch for conservatives) Nothing was safe from MacGruder's critique. There was even an episode about R. Kelly's trial that criticized celebrity worship. The show arguably predicted radlibs even, with other people attacking Huey for merely being apathetic to elections.

While this show can be compared to South Park, the two shows have very different vibes to them. While South Park revelled in its mockery The Boondocks had a sad and depressing feel to its satire. It's like the author wanted to make a real change but felt as if he was powerless to do so. This really shows the difference between a leftist satire and a centrist one. MacGruder is like a combination of Huey and Caesar: he wants to remain Caesar, an optimistic revolutionary, but he inevitably returns to being Huey, a jaded leftcom.

I don't think this affects their satire that much. Compare that to, I dunno, Atlas Shrugged.

Their morals aren't that different from the supporters of Barack Obama really.

There's an episode which just ends with Kyle or whoever explaining that Starbucks is the biggest company because it has the best product.

Didn't they have an entire running gag which was basically "global warming is fake"?

Honestly, that's not that far off from what a centrist would say. It's cringe but it's true. Weird, shouldn't lolberts be against big corporations?
>Didn't they have an entire running gag which was basically "global warming is fake"?
Did they?

Anybody wanna dark-date?
Like, just chatting and keeping in touch yet knowing nothing about each other? It's not even dating, it's just being friends, you name it. I'm up to using some email or torbook. Maybe onion version of reddit?

There's no stat on this. People always say this, but the presumption is that most boomers were hippies, which just isn't true.
