Harvey Weinstein is the logical endpoint of Hollywood exploitation. Everyone arguing in defense of exploitative practices in the film industry is a mini-Weinstein.

"That's just how the film industry works. If you don't like it, other people will do it for those rates and conditions instead." Then every higher-up in the film industry needs to be tortured and killed, simple.

I fucking hate cinephile. They are the most horrible piece of shit out there. They don’t value human and art. They are anti human at there core. Horrible group of fucking people.
The low budget indie film you worked on for $300 a day unexpectedly making millions is not unfair, it’s unlucky.

The first second of the video, I thought that was a deep fake of Hillary Clinton.
this was so sweet. Stephen Colbert just ended his final episode of The Late Show while singing "Hello, Goodbye" with Paul McCartney. his family and the show's crew then joined them on stage before Paul turned off the lights to the Ed Sullivan Theater

Icelandic police set a man on fire and watched him burn, forced the only witness to delete the video they recorded, and the chief of police defended the actions with obvious lies which the media mostly parroted uncritically.

Allegations of rape and sexual violence against white women were one of the most commonly cited justifications for lynching Black men in America, though the historical record shows these charges were routinely fabricated or grossly distorted. Statistics show that about one-fourth of all lynchings from 1880 to 1930 were actually prompted by an accusation of rape. In fact, most victims were political activists, labor organizers, or Black men and women who simply violated white expectations of deference. White mobs used these allegations to enforce segregation and advance stereotypes of Black men as violent, hypersexual aggressors. The brute caricature of the hypersexual Black male was a myth used to justify the violence, which in turn functioned as a social control mechanism to instill fear in Black communities — sending messages not to register to vote, not to apply for white men’s jobs, not to organize, not to complain publicly. This caricature gained in popularity whenever Black people pushed for social equality. Journalist and activist Ida B. Wells was among the first to systematically document and expose this pattern. In 1892, she published Southern Horrors: Lynch Law in All Its Phases, which connected names, dates, and identities to individual cases of lynchings and rape accusations to show that that the rape narrative used to justify lynching was a deliberate fabrication, writing, “nobody in this section of the country believes the old threadbare lie that Negro men rape white women.” She documented that the true motivation for lynching was the enforcement of racial hierarchy. No independent international human rights organization has confirmed a single case of rape by Palestinian fighters on October 7.
Hasan Piker says the designated terrorist organization Hamas is 1,000 times better than Israel. His statement outraged many — who now just want to write him off. That's a mistake. He has a massive audience and is emerging as one of the major voices of his generation. Those of us who disagree owe him — and his audience — a real argument. Here's mine … And my position doesn’t come from ignorance about oppression. For a big chunk of my life, I was a grassroots activist — because of the pain of my own people. During those years, I was lucky enough to learn from elders who had been in the Black Panther Party, in SNCC, in the ANC. These were people who had to choose whether to pick up the gun — and how to use it if they did. They taught me this: even in armed struggle, there are principles. No women. No children. No rapes. No kidnapping. Mandela held that line. Amílcar Cabral held that line. You don't become what you're fighting. Hamas fails that test. They are not fighting for MORE freedom for Palestinians. They're fighting for less. They want theocracy, not democracy. And their means? They don’t use principled armed struggle (hitting military targets). They use terrorism (targeting civilians). The vast majority of Americans — including those who sympathize with the Palestinian cause — reject terror tactics. Reasonable people would agree on three principles: secure homelands for both peoples; no hatred for Jews or Muslims; and protection for all civilians. Hamas’ approach undermines all three. That's the conversation Piker's audience deserves. Not name-calling.

For reference, here's the same scene from the Hong Kong Laserdisc, which was sourced from a print.
Hard Boiled [1992] Directed By: John Woo Comparison between the Shout 4K disc and ARROW 4K disc. ARROW nailed it. I told ya to wait. There are other details too like the Shout disc having noise and other stuff that has been broken down on the Blu-Ray forums. ARROW has better subs, color, artwork by @studiotstella amazing booklet with writing by @BBW_BFF and a bunch of other stuff as well.

And here's the Japanese Laserdisc, which I believe was sourced from an IP. Seems like the same base color timing and both have the blue tint outdoors.

Me at 12: America is evil. Me at 20: While America has many faults, it's childish and unnuanced to simply boil it down it "America is evil." Me now: America is evil.

This is where "cinephilia" gets you. Gotta see all the latest slop and now you're funding the next McCarthy period.

There are few things as detestable as those who pick on, bully, or abuse the weakest members of society. The people who have been harassing John Davidson and other disabled people the last week are absolute scum, lower than dog shit.
