Any film that ends up in Oscars season will have a mix of extreme praise and brutal criticism. I can't say Three Billboards was the worst film that Oscar season - Darkest Hour was a thing - but it's one that I agreed with the crowd that disliked it.

My biggest issue with the movie is that it brings up criticism of institutional racism and police corruption then just... kinda clumsily sweeps it under the rug? The film is a thematic failure at the very least.
For the problems people have with Blackkklansman that movie actively confronts the issues with the police instead of just giving a shrug.
I think the David Cage comparison is a good one, if only because I feel like the fundamental problem with each is that they try to tell stories about contemporary America from a foreign perspective, but with essentially zero real understanding of why contemporary America is how it is, which makes them often feel extremely boneheaded and clumsy about the themes they're tackling.
I don't think Three Billboards is maliciously racist necessarily, it just stumbles into it by being flippant and stupid.
This Wesley Morris NYT piece is extremely good.

Given the UPF UNO stuff, I think I'd just need to supply a brief 240x340 video of Canadians doing...things...
And yeah, Jubbe, that is the cutest kid. She's gonna own that continent one day.
I HAVEN'T SEEN IT YET GODDAMMIT JUST LET ME BE
But really because it's the middle of the night for most of us non-Aussies and we all have takes. Let it happen.
It's Saturday morning and I'm a little too hungover to play a game on my second monitor as I catch up on UPF so I need to rant about a not very good movie. :)
Ok so apparently I don't know what might of the night means.
That would explain a lot about past interactions.

If someone says they "got up in the middle up in the night...", surely you knew they didn't mean 8pm.
Look, I'm gonna be honest with you, Whippy. That isn't the middle of the night.
But I'm also looking for an excuse to post the Australian Beef Youtube video because that's as close to comfortably posting culturally insensitive material on this site that I can do and I really want to. You apparently not knowing what "middle of the night" means just makes this more likely, but I really want your permission before I do it.
Look all I'm saying that life would be easier if we only mentioned military time to describe time.
No loosey goosey bullshit.

I agree, military time is preferable, but that has nothing to do with the idea of "middle of the night." I'm willing to let this go.
So please say that I can post the video. Pleeeeeaaaaaasssssssssse.

I don't know, I really enjoyed three ebbings misery. Didn't really come out of it rooting for anyone or feeling like the film is racist, then again, I'm not American. Almost all of the characters in the film are flawed assholes. However, I did have empathy for some of them. The performances are some next level shit and is what makes it worth watching.
BF1 is so fun, pretty awesome they made the premium pass free over the week but fuck it took me 12 hours to dl the damn thing.
But then I also have to buy the actual game and I don't have $6.50 for a game I'll play once and then never again.
The install is legit around 80 gb, if you have below-average internet I won't bemoan anyone not taking the dive even though it's dirt cheap now.
im kinda wanting to get the ultra forza horizon 4 edition just to get it early
i need it
and i got that gpass too
i need it
and i got that gpass too
gb better get ready
Because I feel like it's a foreigner posting the Log Driver's Waltz. It just doesn't work.
Edit: then in fairness I'll do both Canada shitting on itself via its bad art, and the Crew shitting on Australia via Australians.
(I grew up on this trash)
I mean hey, it's a classic segment.
Also watching the fist of the north star segment on UPF made me go from eh to "I've gotta get this game day 1."

I can't fathom how anybody can watch Three Billboards and come away from it thinking it glorifies the racist characters. They are all extreamly unhappy and their life gets worse as the movie continues while the people who aren't racist are shown to be kind and nice people.
You'd rather use the japanese name Hokuto no Ken like a true weeb eh? I get it.
I just think people who use the westernized name are fake fans and should be ashamed of themselves. Like come on, that's not what George Anime would have wanted when he discovered anime.
As soon as the new EU law is in action I need you all to stop posting any memes in this thread or I'll get arrested for reading it.
Pretty sure that's how it works

I think this means gifs too since they contain copyright material.
RIP SunhiLegend. Guess I need to block him.
Would you even be allowed to visit videogames.com?
Who's volunteering to smuggle the #content? Surely there are small enough USB sticks.
I heard that you can't even view videos with Drew Scanlon in them since he is considered a living meme
