I have to say this too:

Plot wise, it's actually not great. Overall, I'd say The Eternals had a deeper plot.

But the thing is, it's not trying to be deep. It's not trying to come up with a gotcha that makes you think, but it sure as hell DOES make you laugh.

ENTERTAINMENT wise, this movie earn every fucking penny from myself and everyone in the theatre with me. It was a riot, and there was laughing, cheering, and a great time had by everyone.

Speaking of "fuck", I'm pretty sure that Marvel-Disney had a jar somewhere containing every instance of that word they didn't use in their other movie, and that they just tipped the jar over for this one and went wild. Hearing Jackman in a role where he can actually dear was surprisingly entertaining in and of itself.

I think if you're making one of these movies, your leads have to have charisma, and if you have more than one lead, they need chemistry as well.

I find it somewhat impressive that they managed to cast so many people for The Eternals, and none of them had either of those properties.

Is this a typo or the .ml censorship system at work again?

[-] TonyTonyChopper@mander.xyz 3 points 3 months ago

guys I think I have a hypothesis. They meant to write "swear", a common synonym of cuss

[-] phx@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 months ago

Yeah I meant swear

[-] TheImpressiveX@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 months ago

Most likely a typo. If it were .ml's censorship, it would say "removed". People on other instances would still be able to see the swear word.

No, I see effects of the censorship all the time. If the community is on .ml, all the comments go through their server and are subjected to editing, AFAIK.

If it were .ml's censorship, it would say "removed".

Yeah, was wondering if this was censorship v2 😂

[-] TheImpressiveX@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 months ago

Oh, I actually typed the word "removed".

And I was not aware that the censorship applied to other instances.

Here, I'll try it out and you'll let me know if you can see the word:

In typical usage, removed is a pejorative term either for someone with an actual mental disability, or for someone who is considered stupid, slow to understand, or ineffective in some way. The adjective removed is used in the same way, for something very foolish or stupid.

Huh. So it stays removed for all other instances. Thanks!
