Clbull@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What big budget movie had absolutely no buisness getting made?1·4 days agoCats (2019)
-
Directed by Tom Hooper, a guy who doesn’t know shit about cinematography but somehow had two previous films gain critical ablation despite this.
-
Released years, even decades after the West End and Broadway shows had been discontinued.
-
Relied heavily on a star-studded cast featuring Ian McKellen, Rebel Wilson, James Corden, Idris Elba, Judi Dench, Jason Derulo and Taylor Swift.
-
Horrifically bad CGI which costed an absolute tonne to produce because Hooper was an arrogant arsehole and didn’t listen to the people on his crew who actually handled special effects for a living.
-
Most of the songs are significant downgrades compared to the original stage show, i.e. musical vs film version of Magical Mr Mistoffelees.

Clbull@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Does anyone truly think times are better now than 30 years ago? (US)14·4 days agoYes, everyone will say “civil rights improved”
Gay marriage was only legalized due to a Supreme Court decision that declared same sex marriage bans to be unconstitutional.
Since then, Republicans have appointed replacement justices, and it was they who overturned Roe v Wade and upheld a lot of Trump’s recent antics.
Clbull@lemmy.worldto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Twitch's largest political streamer, Asmongold, shovels racist and xenophobic messaging to his audience of 52K+ live viewersEnglish4·5 days agoHis Andrew Tate one is comedy gold. Perfectly nails a depiction of him that’s both realistic and incredibly unflattering uncanny valley body horror.
Clbull@lemmy.worldto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Twitch's largest political streamer, Asmongold, shovels racist and xenophobic messaging to his audience of 52K+ live viewersEnglish5·5 days agoI thought the voices for this were AI generated until I heard his quote on Palestine at the end and remembered that very clip which landed him a Twitch suspension. Fucking hell, those are all actual Asmongold quotes?

Clbull@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Zelenskyy: We’re very close to point when Russia can be forced to end this warEnglish284·1 month agoIf Operation Spiders’ Web is more than just an isolated attack on Russia’s air bases and is continuing to strike deep into Russian soil, then this has serious potential to finally bring Putin to the negotiating table.
Other than that, I think this will be a bloody war of attrition that Zelenskyy has no chance of winning.
Clbull@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Belgium’s future queen caught up in Harvard foreign student banEnglish51·2 months agoI thought the royals in mainland Europe were generally well-liked? I’m only basing this on the lack of negative attention they get compared to the British royal family.
Clbull@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Bernie Agrees: Democratic Party Is a ‘Threat to Democracy’2·2 months agoBernie is a whole lot more compos mentis than Biden ever was.
The right time to elect him would’ve been 2016…
Clbull@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Bernie Agrees: Democratic Party Is a ‘Threat to Democracy’441·2 months agoHe isn’t wrong. If they hadn’t pushed a senile 81 year old incumbent leader upon us as their candidate, in a blatant attempt to parachute an unpopular vice president into power once the 25th Amendment had to inevitably be invoked, then we would never have had a second Trump term.
Biden should never have ran for a second term, and allowed time for the Democrats to field a decent candidate for the White House. The fact that Harris literally lost to somebody who tried to stir up an insurrection against Congress four years ago says it all.
Clbull@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Stack Overflow seeks rebrand as traffic continues to plummet – which is bad news for developersEnglish3·2 months agoAnother big problem is that we’ve been collectively trying to shoehorn everybody into programming careers for the better part of two decades. In fact, “just learn to code” is often thrown around by people in response to the prospect of AI automating and taking over everybody’s jobs.
What they don’t understand is that coding is actually very difficult, especially for people who are bad at math, which is a significant portion of the population if you look at statistics, grades, test scores, etc. Expecting a lowly paid call center worker who lost their job to AI to suddenly open up Visual Studio and write any code is a fools errand.
I bring this up because I think there’s a correllation between people asking low-quality questions and people being pushed into making a career move into tech.
Clbull@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Stack Overflow seeks rebrand as traffic continues to plummet – which is bad news for developersEnglish1·2 months agoI’m not a programmer (last time I seriously dabbled into coding was building a website for an A Level Computing project and I had to teach myself HTML, CSS, PHP and MySQL because my sixth form was shit and was only teaching us Visual Basic 6 when the IDE/language had been obsolete for nearly a decade) and I have never personally posted on StackOverflow. In fact, the only StackExchange site I’ve ever been part of was EpicAdvice, a short-lived offshoot that was for World of Warcraft specific questions. But I do have a sibling with a computer science and software engineering background which is how I became aware of the site in the first place.
This isn’t my personal criticism of the site, it’s me echoing the sentiment of the many who have complained about the community across the web.
Clbull@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Stack Overflow seeks rebrand as traffic continues to plummet – which is bad news for developersEnglish359·2 months agoMaybe StackOverflow is dying because its community is full of incredibly toxic, passive-aggressive and hostile basement dwellers who will berate, downvote and lock the threads of anybody who dares ask a programming question. Genuinely the kind of people you often see moderating subreddits or Discord servers who have never been punched in the face.
ChatGPT hammered the final nail in the site’s coffin because it’s now become a tool where you can ask specific programming questions and likely get an answer that isn’t “use the search bar you fucking dipshit. Question closed as off-topic.”
Clbull@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Reddit bans an anti-natalist group after Palm Springs explosion5·2 months agoEcho toxic sentiments for long enough and people are going to start believing it.
I’m about 95% sure that communities like 4chan, Reddit, Poal, 8Kun, etc are the reason why the American & European political climates are now so fucked.
Clbull@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Reddit bans an anti-natalist group after Palm Springs explosion18·2 months agoNo but they did ban a whole subreddit (WatchPeopleDie) dedicated to footage of people dying back in 2018 after they dared to show footage of the Christchurch mass shooting - without any prior admin warning whatsoever.
And honestly Reddit were a bunch of hypocrites for how they handled that situation, especially since WPD had tonnes of uncut ISIS execution videos hosted on their subreddit a few years back and nobody on the board gave a shit.
Clbull@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Former President Joe Biden diagnosed with 'aggressive' prostate cancer1·2 months agoBut it does make ya wonder why he wanted to run for a second term. He probably won’t make it to the end of the current administration.
There are already conspiracy theories going around that he kept his medical issues (dementia, cancer, etc) a closely guarded secret whilst running for re-election.
As for why I think Biden wanted to run for a second term, my guess is that his plan was to stand down and effectively proxy the United States’ first female leader in that way. Harris would have otherwise been eviscerated in the primaries.
He won’t live long enough to see the major impact of slow rolling Trump’s arrest.
Dude, with the way Trump is handling things, the 2026 midterms and 2028 presidential elections are going to be about as Fair and Balanced™ as a Fox News broadcast.
Nah, this is yanderedev
