Rules for Movies & TV Discussion

  1. Any discussion of Disney properties should contain a (cw: imperialism) tag. If your post isn't tagged appropriately it will be removed.

  2. Anti-Bong Joon-ho trolling will result in an immediate ban from c/movies and submitted to the site administrators for review.

  3. On Star Trek Sunday only posts discussing how we might achieve space communism are permitted. Non-Star Trek related content will be removed and you will be temporarily banned until the following Sunday.

Here's a list of tons of leftist movies.

I really don't think that's the take you'd come away with after actually watching the show.

It's not doing the Game of Thrones thing at all.

I won't be watching it, these sorts of plotlines always cordon off actual SV victims from the media. It doesn't matter how "tasteful" it is, it's slop that ultimately trivializes SV for the profit motive

To back you up, the SV scene did lead nowhere, since the character gets magically “fixed” by killing (one) of her torturers.

It's a common and awful trope, like oh yeah PTSD is just this thing that dissipiates with vibes.
