That’s how it feels to be a man watching modern shows/movies, tbh. Yeah, unpopular take, but it is what it is. That’s one of the things I like about Japanese media. It’s just sexist about both genders. I guess the double standards annoy me more than the sexism itself in recent productions. The way they consciously try to avoid sexism against one gender, but not the other. The way most characters from one gender are upstanding, while the responsible for problems, prejudice and all bad things belong to the other.

>the cost is primarily towards actually installing it into the Walk of Fame

50k to place one tile? How does one get that job?

Sense 8 S2 E1&12

It's now quantity over quality unfortunately..money making at any cost.

Anna Torv might have a chance in Guest Actress.

Same here.

It wasn’t until last year that I finally watched it from beginning to end for the first time.

If it’s any consolation I hated the character because of all the douchiness and never watched it

my biggest gripe about that show was that it was the cleanest, least destructive apocalypse I've ever seen. That, and I know this is nitpicky, but you see zombies take full brunt shotgun blasts at close range get up and their clothes aren't even torn, like, come on. Also, the school episode will piss you off way more.

That said, season 2 is pretty good.

It is depressing to read that it took his partner having to point this stuff out for OP to pick up on any of it.

Not exactly the same, but my (straight white male) ex loved schlocky 80s action movies like The Evil Dead or anything George Carpenter, and got so defensive and annoyed when I dared point out that, for example, the only two women in Escape From New York are either sex workers or love interests (and, if memory serves, dead by the end of the film). Don't even get me started on how much he hated it when I pointed out when women got fridged.

Two and a half men was marketed as „My cool uncle Charlie“ in Austria, just saying

Understandable, they aged really badly

I never bought this, because you're still supposed to Like them (in an "oh, what a cheeky scoundrel!" kind of way). They were entitled, conniving and manipulative but "it's all in good jest, right?"

Whereas if you watch it now it's just "why are any of these people friends with this horrible misogynist/PUA??"

Tbh after single camera sitcoms became common, I rarely watched the laugh track stuff any more.

Well I think you could argue that for Barney, but fr Charlie, I think it would really be a stretch to say he was framed as a jerk. That’s because Barney had quite the character arc in the second half of the show. Charlie on the other hand was always rewarded for being the worst and even more people around him who arguably behaved better were punished by the story. They only started to break Charlie character when he behaved like a pos in real life and that from a writing perspective felt more like a petty personal insult and less like a natural arc to make him regret his former ways.

Edit: also I can promise you that nobody I knew was actually understanding any one of those characters as satirical, most just found them pretty cool, because they slept with many women

And in the case of HIMYM, the show takes a stance on the emptiness and shallowness of Barney's lifestyle, and Barney begins to find far more fulfillment in a respectful relationship where Robin doesnt tolerate any of his old antics.

You always knew NPH and Sheen's characters were supposed to be jerks, right?

Power is a great show, So is Breaking Bad

Why do they need to be compared

Enjoy both in their own ways

Ok thank you - that’s one example. Are there any more?

I actually really enjoyed that fight. I knew she wasn’t going to win but to see her topple someone so much bigger and heavier than her a couple of times was really impressive.

Two and a half men and How I met your Mother would be examples from my youth

I am a fan of both games. But the actual racing in Mario kart 64 is much better than diddy king.
