>Bridesmaids
I wasn't redpilled enough when it came out. I liked Saturday Night Live when Tina Fey was head writer, though it helped that there were good cast members like Tracey Morgan. So then I watched 30 Rock and it was pretty good. I even watched that movie Baby Mama, and that was kind of funny, too. So I went to see Bridesmaids. Worst experience I've ever had in a theater. So painfully unfunny, and yet the audience was in uproarious laughter. Of course. Because it's women. If it was men doing the same thing, the movie would be hated by everybody. But no, it's Kristin Wiig badly overacting, and Maya Rudolph shitting in a sink, so the movie is brilliant, and set the tone for a trend that essentially lead to the death of comedy movies. Bridesmaids was my redpill.
>Star Wars Episode 7
But apparently I was still pretty stupid, so a few years later I fell for Disney's marketing when they said they were getting the original cast back together. Then it turned out they're barely in the movie. But okay, near the start we're introduced to a stormtrooper who wants to become a good guy. A nigger, and they need to make a throwaway excuse for why he's not a clone of a maori guy, but okay, whatever, this is actually a pretty interesting idea, and I'd be interested in seeing where it goes. Oh wait, no, the movie is just about Mary Sue, some girl that never has any actual challenges, and does things effortlessly that took Luke three movies to learn, and there's a girl Yoda and a ridiculous looking Darth Vader with a stupid looking mask and an even stupider looking face under the mask. Seriously, he looks like he got melted worse than Anakin at the end of Episode III.
When I walked out of the theater I almost couldn't believe it. I remember being disappointed walking out of the theater for Episode I, but actually after rewatches it grew on me. Especially once Episode III was out and I could see the whole saga, I liked the prequels. So I walked out of Episode 7 and though I didn't enjoy it, I didn't want to admit to myself that I disliked it, though. But as the night drew on it really set in on me. Star Wars was ruined. I remember a few months later I went to see Batman v Superman, and my only thought walking out of the theater was "well, at least it was better than Episode 7." And I knew why it was bad, and I tried to warn everyone that the sequels were just gonna be worse. And they didn't listen. I didn't watch any later Star Wars movies, but with each one more and more people came back and admitted I was right. Now everyone agrees. But it's a hollow victory. I wish I was wrong.
>Super Mario Bros. (2023)
Oh great. Let's make Luigi the damsel in distress, because it would be sexist to just let Peach do what she's supposed to do. Meanwhile the movie tries to act like it's about the bond between two brothers, but the brothers are separated the entire movie so that they follow the rules of feminism. Meanwhile Peach makes Mario completely redundant and basically just makes him look like a bitch, because things he has to try hard at and train over a long montage are actually so easy for her that she did it on her first try. So why doesn't she save the day, then? Because they had to come up with some stupid unconvincing luck-based excuse to take her out of the final fight just so Mario could save the day, but within the context the movie set up, that's bad fucking writing. It's also not good writing to make Peach an unlikable smug cunt. Feminists don't understand that being smug isn't likeable on anybody, because women are always likeable, right girls?! So they can act any way at all, and if you don't like them, you just hate women, not just smug cunts.
Meanwhile, in the actual games, Peach has an actual likeable personality, and has neat story bits that could have been used in a movie. She has her own goddamn game on DS, and that could have been used for a lot of inspiration, but no. She's everyone's favorite character in Mario 2, yet she isn't a smug cunt there. In the original manual for Super Mario Bros., the reason Bowser kidnaps her is because she is the only one with the magic to undo his magic. That's cool. And there could have easily been a b-plot of Peach and Bowser, bickering comedically while she tries to outwit him and covertly send helpful letters and magic items to Mario. But nope. Can't have that. Gotta have feminism dictate the entire fucking movie. No, let's have Luigi and Bowser instead, two characters who have basically never interacted in the games.
And then even people who know what's wrong with modern movies still gave this one a pass because the models looked sort of like the games and it had some songs from the games. It also had fucking A-Ha, so that pretty much cancels out all the game related music, in my opinion.
All this bullshit is less distracting than the Sonic movie being about little boy Sonic being adopted by Cyclops and his black wife. At least that movie is so fucking far from Sonic that it's easier to just ignore it entirely. But Mario does look like Mario, so it's wearing the skin suit, and people pretend like it's a better movie, but it's not.
