I honestly wanted to like this movie. I did not, however.
Everything about it stank. Smelled real bad from the get go.
A shitty trailer is usually a bellwether for a shitty movie. Not always the case but... BvS?
The pre-empted sexism charges made me think: "oh the filmmakers are hiding something... I bet this movie isn't very good"
Turns out it's a piece of shit. To save face, everyone played the "you must hate women" card.
Goddamn I wanted to like it. I wanted to love it.
The line where the least funny actress in history falls on the ground goes "I don't know if it's a race thing or a lady thing" solidifies exactly what this movie was trying to do.
In an odd way, the 2016 ghostbusters shines a light on why people don't seem to gel with third wave feminism. It (again oddly) exposes the effort these people exert into creating their own victimhood.
So your piece of shit movie got panned? Opened to empty movie theaters? Didn't really make any impact in any way? Sucked?
Must be the patriarchy! See these are the wrongs in our society that we have to put up with!!!
Meanwhile, cut to Saudi Arabia where some poor woman gets acid in her face for refusing to be raped.
Crickets. You know why crickets? Because these people are cowards and hypocrites.
And the second you point all this shit out, some fuckface will say "dude it's just a movie, calm down bro"
But it's not just a movie. This film should serve as a lighthouse to illuminate the language we need to develop in order to further true equality.
