Just watched Master and Commander...

Delita_Wasnt_Wrong · 2018-09-24T11:48:47+00:00

And why didn’t they cast a black woman in a wheelchair as the captain?? Such blatant racist ableist misogyny from Hollywood. This is all Harvey Weinstein’s fault somehow

protonexus1 · 2018-09-24T11:53:03+00:00

I don't get it, how did the men run the boats if there wasn't a woman telling them how to do it and playing mom?

20cansofSpam · 2018-09-24T11:10:33+00:00

Needed more scurvy

room_303 · 2018-09-24T12:10:02+00:00

Shut up!, all you men out there - STOP TALKING ABOUT MASTER AND COMMANDER - It is the last man movie made in Hollywood, and also the biggest secret.

NO WOMEN turn up in the plot half way through, fuck the captain and spread their estrogen to the men on the boat and make them think differently, they remain brothers and battle all the elements and get shit done, quite a pleasant surprise.

If you talk about it, sooner or later they will come with $100 million to waste on an all female remake.

Peter Weir and whatever Hollywood studio that took a punt, i salute you.

DangZagnut · 2018-09-24T12:43:05+00:00

It didn't even have any Mary Sue characters with superpowers and were better than all the men?

Sounds lame.

marcopoloman · 2018-09-24T11:53:26+00:00

There was a scene with women. When they are trading off the boat with natives

I enjoy that movie for that reason. Almost no women

CiceroVoltaire · 2018-09-24T12:42:30+00:00

just wait for the remake. /s

rationalthought314 · 2018-09-24T13:03:57+00:00

it was missing the love triangle between the nice guy and the bad boy fighting for the female captain's love as she single-handedly defeats Napoleon.

karben14 · 2018-09-24T13:50:11+00:00

The best part of the movie was how they did all that and lived through it and triumphantly made it, and it wasn't for the whore waiting for them at home.

jonathino001 · 2018-09-24T13:28:46+00:00

Quality shitpost, 10/10, would prescribe chemotherapy.

Balgoth55 · 2018-09-24T14:13:31+00:00

An excellent feminist analysis. I'm going to go punch men until my anger subsides. Viva la resistance!

Roastie_haiku_bot · 2018-09-24T15:01:47+00:00

How dare they depict a white man as a courageous, attractive go-getter?

tindalos77 · 2018-09-24T15:54:06+00:00

For the 2025 remake, the ship crew would be made of mixed race-gender binary women and the captain would be a black-gender fluid-muslim woman wearing a hijab.

No1Buck · 2018-09-24T12:36:34+00:00

That movie made me seasick.

Afab67 · 2018-09-24T13:36:05+00:00

There was one female, when they were loading provisions off the coast of South America. She was sitting in a canoe looking at the Captain (social climbing, of course). But then, off they went without her, sailing into adventure!!

TVTestPattern · 2018-09-24T14:00:05+00:00

Fuckin' great movie.

MWCyrus · 2018-09-24T15:13:47+00:00

Lets do a remake with women. It will be shite but sell lots of tickets because sea vaginas.

thxnwy · 2018-09-24T16:17:39+00:00

Are you saying they didn't have at least one woman fighting with a robotic arm? You know, just for historic accuracy.

SSDan007 · 2018-09-24T13:16:22+00:00

Fantastic audiophile reference film to show off your sound system, the lack of estrogen was a big perk.

2018-09-24T14:24:39+00:00

Hey now you're not properly respecting the wamens. You shouldn't be trying to open their doors to Hollywood, it just makes them think you think they're weak, she's gotta open her own god damn doors. That's how you properly respect the wamens.

jkarovskaya · 2018-09-24T14:32:46+00:00

Def on my top 10 list .

GemStarCN21 · 2018-09-24T13:10:52+00:00

I don't care.

It's one of my favorite movies.

Th soundtrack is glorious.

gevalher · 2018-09-24T16:23:27+00:00

And that's my friend is what's called the New Normal.

wannabe9999 · 2018-09-24T16:49:31+00:00

Loved that movie.

I read all the Aubrey-Maturin books... excellent. And Russell Crowe was the perfect choice. Sure wish they had done several more with Crowe in the lead.

DevsAdv99 · 2018-09-24T16:58:44+00:00

The books have a great view of women. The Unicorn, who the Doctor marries, is epic.

DM_Waveform · 2018-09-24T17:05:31+00:00

Just a boatload of toxic masculinity. I'll wait for the Netflix adaptation, thank-you.

Zombocom1911 · 2018-09-24T17:34:05+00:00

they need to reshoot all movies to add in diversity. saving private ryan's opening beach landing scene should be re-filmed to add in 50% women. <---obviously sarcasm, but battlefield 5's devs might do it

Logan_ph5 · 2018-09-24T18:30:55+00:00

I also watched it today lol. Quantum Entanglement.

Loban8990 · 2018-09-24T19:54:56+00:00

Great movie. Loved it.

Don't forget your old shipmates.

MAGAneticENERGY · 2018-09-24T20:46:01+00:00

There is no E behind shit

the000knight · 2018-09-24T22:44:21+00:00

No love plotline? No shouting I'm the king of the world from bow? How am I supposed to enjoy it?

On a serious note though, I recently bought an Xbox one and thought I could make use of the Blu Ray player included in it. M&C is one of the first movies I bought. It's also funny that the disc cost $5 from Amazon which included a digital copy accessible from Google Play where it's sold for $14!

Gordon-G · 2018-09-24T23:39:56+00:00

No women sailors having their arms or legs blown off!?!!

VenetianCares · 2018-09-25T04:48:11+00:00

how about the few Superman movies. can't believe they cast a male in that role. hogwash!

DWShimoda · 2018-09-25T17:23:06+00:00

Obviously it was created as a misogynistic tool of the Patriarchy.

I mean the "doctor/scientist" character -- instead of some pale, bond haired guy (Nazi!) -- obviously SHOULD have been a "woman of color"... you know, to promote "Women in STEM"; because as everyone knows it's always REALLY been "women of color" that have done the ACTUAL "science" things (like you know those 3 black chicks that put the man on the moon); they just don't get credit for it because of [white] male oppreshun.
