Things You Do NOT Wanna See In A Movie?

not even smoking? XD

I dont mind a bit but when a scene in an enclosed room is laden with smoke I actually start to feel a bit green, but that was really just a nit pick. I dont judge people for choosing to smoke, by the way. I just have a physical reaction when I see constant puffing on the screen.

i feel you, i hate smoke too, worst part is that my parents always forced me to swallow their tobacco smoke

So funny. I was just thinking about why it affects me. When I was about 12 years old I went to spend the weekend in the mountains with the older kids of my step mother's bestie. We stayed with their eccentric old aunt in this tiny little cabin in this spookey little valley. I thought it was going to be a weekend of fresh air, riding horses and patting donkeys. Just turned into nights of sitting in the cabin with everyone else playing cards and chain smoking while I turned green and my eyes blazed red. I think seeing a smoke filled room on screen just takes me back to that trauma.

thanks for telling, that must have been a trauma then, i think traumas last lifetimes also probably? and they so difficul to erase, the cause-effect amazes me

I really just want you all angry and confused the whole time.

^What did Cumberbatch do to get lumped in with those guys?

He made some very insensitive and ignorant comments about people with mental disabilities (particularly autism) on multiple occasions. The one I'm most familiar with is when asked about his role in 'The Imitation Game' and how many people believe that Turing was probably autistic (there's a fair amount of historical evidence to support this), Cumberbatch kind of dismissively said something to the effect of that being impossible because there's no way autistic people could be that smart.

In hindsight, while I still don't like the idea of a person who seems to be bigoted against people with mental disabilities being given a pass and given recognition like he is, it was probably unfair to paint him in the same light as the others on that list and I should have specified more clearly. Regardless, I still don't think we should be rewarding sh*tty people just because they happen to be good at a thing.

What Miss Vicky said. The scene clearly establishes a coherent conflict in that Brad Pitt is interrogating the prisoners in order to find out about Nazi patrol locations while the main prisoner repeatedly refuses to betray his comrades, prompting Pitt to threaten him with baseball bat execution and ultimately have it carried out. It's in keeping with his character already being established as a determined Nazi-hunter while also showcasing a twisted sense of honour that further develops his character - he could get the information from one of the other prisoners (and he ultimately does), but he understands that the soldier has a sense of honour and is even willing to give the main soldier the chance to die for his country (albeit in an extremely nasty way). This is borne out by the last surviving prisoner immediately pointing out the locations, which prompts Pitt to leave him alive with a swastika scar on his forehead instead of just murdering him along with the others (and also needing someone to spread the story). Pitt's character makes sense and so do the acts of violence.

I agree, arrest him and burn all the movies he's been in (sarcasm). Political Correctness is worse than any ignorant misstep by an actor.

"Not wanting to see him in movies" and "arrest and burn all his work" are very drastically different things. My choice not to support his work is not me saying it should be illegal to be a bigot,

and if that's really how you honestly interpreted what I said then frankly that says more about you than anything else.
