@behindthemall89 @lovelltrin they need to dye his hair first i think for me to truly see the vision… like rn him and sadie look too alike to be scott and jean comfortably

[laika @laikafire]

@Sword_Domo @stymirr @Parkerbloom20 in terms of the gift, there are fully abusive husbands who’s wives still buy them gifts, especially during the “good parts” that many abusive relationships tend to have. this just shows the lack of nuanced understanding so many people have to abuse and DV.

[laika @laikafire]

@Sword_Domo @stymirr @Parkerbloom20 yes, if he claimed to be. but that’s not what the suit is over, the lawsuit was over her claiming to be a survivor. she entirely is. you can argue he was too, but a being true does not exclude b from also being true, it’s just the truthfulness of a being the question.

@RoCoZahf @comeandgo78 @DuvalNole @woop54 @Kobination i mean you’re welcome to that opinion if you want, lord knows there are plenty of awards people who probably agree with you

[laika @laikafire]

@comeandgo78 @DuvalNole @woop54 @Kobination just because something becomes incredibly popular doesn’t mean it’s the best. i really liked obsession, and it’s a positive force for smaller movies, but the year isn’t up yet. it might not even be nominated. next to competition like the odyssey or dune, obsession just can’t win

[laika @laikafire]

@comeandgo78 @DuvalNole @woop54 @Kobination i think this really discredits a lot of drama movies. just because you haven’t seen a smaller drama doesn’t mean it’s not incredibly good. if obsession hadn’t taken off, i seriously doubt people would be arguing this. if you gave a drama film legs you might be just as impressed.

[laika @laikafire]

@comeandgo78 @DuvalNole @woop54 @Kobination unfortunately the oscar’s don’t really function that way. sinners and weapons have been suprising and welcome wins, but madigan had a lengthy career and sinners also had action movie appeal. obsession just really isn’t the kind of movie i see being rewarded, as good as it was.

[laika @laikafire]

@Sword_Domo @stymirr @Parkerbloom20 the issue at hand is that the intentional framing of the lawsuit was well-manipulated by depp’s legal team within the media. to those not knowledgeable about the trial, they will quickly believe this makes depp entirely innocent and that amber heard was lying.

[laika @laikafire]

@Sword_Domo @stymirr @Parkerbloom20 but this just furthers the issue i have with the trial. if there is any evidence of his abuse it wouldn’t be defamation to say she’s experienced abuse. i fully believe it was mutually abusive, but mutual abuse does not negate her claim to be a survivor of domestic violence.

[laika @laikafire]

@stymirr @Parkerbloom20 if anything the media response highlighted just how quickly people would dismiss abuse allegations if a victim was not perfectly innocent. remember that the defamation lawsuit was over her claiming he was abusive, which there was evidence of.

[laika @laikafire]

@stymirr @Parkerbloom20 so that people see the not guilty verdict and automatically dismiss her allegations, but we have audio recording of him hitting her and photos of her covered in bruises which were likely caused by depp. he WAS abusive and likely did sexually assault her, but she was found liable

[laika @laikafire]

@DuvalNole @woop54 @Kobination mikey madison is different in that anora got so much critical buzz and was nominated for best picture. i seriously doubt obsession will get that nomination, these awards shows tend to ignore horror, especially recently.

[laika @laikafire]

@I_________Know @crf_tonio @voidedproduct @MazzaInvests @arakkosuperstar she was still on major late night and very famous before the series was even over. i’m not arguing zendaya wasn’t also famous, but it’s silly to say that sadie sink hasn’t been more famous pre-spiderman than zendaya pre-spiderman. z got her major roles after.

[laika @laikafire]

@ArtLoverQ @Dusky985 @oka_iko @orangepaulp people associate woke with progressive because those more progressive often also hold “woke” understandings of racial bias. it’s not wrong to say hes woke, that’s just how anything more progressive is dismissed now by conservatives

[laika @laikafire]

@I_________Know @crf_tonio @voidedproduct @MazzaInvests @arakkosuperstar are you seriously trying to argue that stranger things is not insanely popular lmfao

[laika @laikafire]

@I_________Know @crf_tonio @voidedproduct @MazzaInvests @arakkosuperstar she was a fan favorite right away, though. she had a large following and was literally on the most famous netflix show of all time. her pre-spiderman fame is probably way higher than zendaya’s pre-spiderman fame.

[laika @laikafire]

@nintendo____ds @ReturnOfMaul @drdoomarchive i don’t think that’s what it was??? it definitely read more to me that he was curious about the script situation given how much conflicting info abt the scripts there’s been. filming a movie with constant changes to a script will impact performance/story

[laika @laikafire]

@toemel_ @MazzaInvests @arakkosuperstar they gave her 2-4 million for a huge deal with multiple movies and options for tv shows… she is not just going to be a love interest

[laika @laikafire]

@pas11140 @MazzaInvests @arakkosuperstar zendaya wasn’t super famous before spiderman, though. she got the majority of her huge roles after she was cast in homecoming…
