@zoerosebryant I normally watch like 100+ new movies every year and I’ve watched like 20 this year. So I’m behind. By Emily Blunt was brilliant in Disclosure Day.

[Josh Halstead @JoshHalstead]

@michaelkpate lol you’re literally proving my point when you ignore context and misrepresent what I said. But you’re also pro-genocide. So I’m not shocked.

[Josh Halstead @JoshHalstead]

@DetroitCineaste @GilroyGarlicBoi Christian movies do where they set it up like a moral edict that you go see it to support “good clean family fun” and all that stuff. 2/2

[Josh Halstead @JoshHalstead]

This guys quote is about how he wants to make something his Christian grandparents would like, and that being his guiding principal for filmmaking. He also owns and runs a right wing Christian filmmaking company and produced the right-wing adjacent comedy The Breadwinner. 1/2

[Sean Chandler @kirkneverdied]

The new head of DC wanted the MCU to make movies for normal people outside of the Hollywood bubble with themes which are broadly accessible.

The most popular movie franchise in history was designed for everyone?!?

I'm not sure this is the GOTCHA people are making it out to be

[Josh Halstead @JoshHalstead]

@DetroitCineaste @GilroyGarlicBoi The Breadwinner is a movie made by conservatives about the “hilarious” concept of the mother being the breadwinner and how crazy it is to have the dad be the caretaker. That’s definitely at least a conservative adjacent film. They also marketed it the same right-wing 1/2

[Josh Halstead @JoshHalstead]

@fsanchez1983 This is an irrelevant and pointless comment. I’m also already aware. None of that has anything to do with what is currently happening. Stop trying to pigeon hole the conversation into one specific talking point that isn’t what any of us are arguing.

[Josh Halstead @JoshHalstead]

@Ihatehersose 1. I’m not an anime guy. 2. When the right wing Christian grandma has been collecting and reading comics for 30 years come talk to me. Also I’m Christian. Also also: comics aren’t all for any one audience.

You’re right wing troll is showing.

[Josh Halstead @JoshHalstead]

@daniel87184691 @kirkneverdied I’m not the one using attacks, ad hominem, or slurs. And I’m Christian. Anyway enjoy the block since you’re clearly a right wing troll

[Josh Halstead @JoshHalstead]

@nixondefender @mxyz24 @CountVolpe You’re a literal Nazi. Fuck off bro

[Josh Halstead @JoshHalstead]

Yeah so if you’re following Sean Chandler…maybe reconsider. I never attacked him or anything but he was cool liking and commenting kindly back to folks called me(an autistic person) the r slur. @CountVolpe you know he’s like this? This is a bummer.

[Josh Halstead @JoshHalstead]

@KamenRiderIrish @kirkneverdied Also, thank you for being kind and not just randomly attacking me for my opinion. It’s appreciated.

[Josh Halstead @JoshHalstead]

@Blaaaair96 @kirkneverdied They worked with the military and intentionally went soft on a bunch of the criticisms that would have been natural from its narrative because the military asked them to. And a lot of the rest of the MCU is worse about it.

[Josh Halstead @JoshHalstead]

@KamenRiderIrish @kirkneverdied To be clear, I like the MCU. I’m not offended or anything. I’m just saying it has a lot of stuff that seems broadly conservative. People in the comments are twisting me exposing the view for me being offended and attacking. Which I’m not.

[Josh Halstead @JoshHalstead]

@KamenRiderIrish @kirkneverdied The MCU is broadly prop military industrial complex, has taken paid sponsorships for the military and has several projects that play to conservative views of the military. Iron Man shares many of these ideals and has been criticized for it. He said it was never criticized.

[Josh Halstead @JoshHalstead]

@StutterFedora @kirkneverdied Almost everything Gunn released with DC is not niche and not R rated. Thanks for playing. Enjoy the block.

[Josh Halstead @JoshHalstead]

@DarboJr3 @kirkneverdied @utah_horn I’m not in a Hollywood bubble. lol. And I specifically pointed out the push of military industrial complex in the film. Has nothing to do with him being straight or white. And also James Gunn is a Christian. You’re just being disingenuous.

[Josh Halstead @JoshHalstead]

@mxyz24 @CountVolpe No keep going. Keep showing everyone how I used zero names, attacked zero people, and said nothing mean and you’re all attacking me and using slurs. Youre literally just proving me point 😂

[Josh Halstead @JoshHalstead]

It’s hilarious how often you’ll state a political view totally normally, someone will attack you for it and call you names/slurs, and then they’ll say you’re the one who can’t handle a difference of opinion.

If I had a nickel…

[Josh Halstead @JoshHalstead]

@imDazzer @kirkneverdied Fuck off loser

[Josh Halstead @JoshHalstead]

@kirkneverdied @utah_horn Crazy that you’re just gonna keep commenting and replying nicely to people attacking me and to the guy who called me a slur. Fake Christian horseshit right there. Been following you forever and btw we’ve talked pleasantly several times. But this is an easy block.

[Josh Halstead @JoshHalstead]

@utah_horn @kirkneverdied I’m acting literally no way. I’ve attacked zero people. I explained why people are upset. It’s yall who are using slurs against me and attacking me for having a different opinion. Get a grip dude.
