there there, love. you'll find your trigglypuff someday 💏

reply

Did even using that emoticon hurt just a little bit, always-lonely? 

reply

No. Did it hurt you? I'm sorry.

reply

Here we go again!  "I know you are but what am i?!"  Thanks Peewee!

reply

I'll take that as a yes. Poor dear.

reply

Hestia, you shouldn't be apologizing. That's weak! Paul Feig would not approve of that in his movie designed for strong, independent women.

It's Valentine's Day, have some sweets 🍦🍪🍫🍩

I'm sorry that I apologised

Any Valentine's plans tonight? Dinner for one with a huge carton of ice cream? 

Exactly! Strong independent women that prove how much they don't need men by piggybacking (no pun intended) off of a franchise that was already made successful by men.

does everything have to be about men vs women? The characters in this film just happened to be women. Why does it matter so much?

reply

Because Paul Feig lied and said that it was modern and progressive when all he did was gender swap the characters around... he didn't even try and mix up the ethnicities.

reply

And not to mention one of the "Ghostbusters" in hiis movie's a bad racial stereotype on black women. Winston was more progressive than Patty because he was the one who figured out, even before Ray and Egon, that the world was ending. Not to mention, he's more eloquent and relatable.

Did the militant feminist just seriously ask this question?! 

reply

Yes, she really did.

All the 🍫 has gone to her head

reply

Yes. Feminism promotes equality between men and women. Therefore, we would like casting women to be seen just as normal and natural as casting men. It would be great if you could see the cast as individual people rather than just women riding on the coattails of men. There would be no cries about riding on the coattails of anyone if the cast had been men, even though those individual men would have contributed about as much to Ghostbusters as the women that were cast.

reply

And how about when the director himself openly says he's shoehorning women into these roles on purpose? Quit pretending now like you give a sh** about individuality.

reply

I don't agree with casting women simply because they are women. I liked this movie for the "ghostbusting" aspect of it, not because there was supposedly a feminist agenda in it. I wasn't even aware of the big controversy surrounding it until I came here.

reply

Well in case you forgot, that's exactly what they did with this movie. By their own proud admissions.

reply

I don't agree with their reasons for the casting then, but it doesn't matter much since I don't let political agendas ruin things for me. I try to ignore that stuff. If Paul Feig had instead said he wanted to cast all males because the original Ghostbusters were men I wouldn't have cared.

reply

I try to ignore that stuff.
Yes, sometimes FACTS are very convenient to ignore 

reply

I'm not ignoring FACTS. I'm ignoring political agendas 

You find political agendas irritating, right?

reply

Here's some clarification cupcake - it's a FACT that this movie had a POLITICAL AGENDA. That was the whole point lol wow. It's ok, try again tomorrow 

reply

I know that, cupcake. And I choose to ignore it and not let it bother me 😊

reply

I'm not ignoring FACTS.


Hahaha, just when i thought you couldn't get any funnier, here you make your biggest contradiction ever. 😊

reply

Yes. Feminism promotes equality between men and women.
Not at all, that is Egalitarianism.

Feminism promotes special rights and privileges for women only and is discriminatory in nature.
It would be great if you could see the cast as individual people rather than just women riding on the coattails of men.
Perhaps Paul Feig should not have marketed it as "progressive" and "modern" then, since it was neither.

reply

Hey now Final you heard the lady, she wants nothing to do with 'facts' 

reply

OHHHH right. Facts are meaningless.

You could use facts to prove anything that is even remotely true.

reply

I never said that, silly little Egon.

reply

Fool? Silly? Are you Snidely Whiplash now? 

reply

lol you're rather feisty today

reply

I'm in a good mood! It's Valentine's Day 💗

reply

😊

reply

This calls for a drink.

**Have an A1 day**

reply

Exactly, that's coming from someone who ensures that the differences that pits the genders against each other does continue with her digs on men.

That irony's insane.

reply

Isn't that hilarious?! From someone whose whole life revolves around a gender war lol can't make this stuff up.

reply

Oh please. You don't know me at all.

reply

It was based on what you've posted. We don't have to "know" you for that.

A little off today, area ya? 

reply

Yeah, you kind of do have to know me if you're going to make claims about what my life revolves around.

fool.

reply

Why don't you enlighten everyone?

reply

Why don't you enlighten everyone?

reply
