The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe. Will we listen to his words today?

I love it when I can't find a picture that captures what I'm talking about and then while looking for something else, I finally find it and it's freaking perfect

A screenshot from the TV series Columbo. Detective Columbo (Peter Falk) gestures with a stub of a cigar as he speaks to an unseen person offscreen.

Text reads: "Just one more thing... When you were 'discovering' America, was there anyone else there at the time?"

PLEASE DON'T SUPPORT THIS "INDIE PROJECT"

IT'S GENERATIVE AI SLOP

Very disappointed that no one is calling it out in the comments. But it's possible they could be deleting negative ones.

I was fooled by the preview image thinking "OMG GIRL BALTO" but nope, AI slop. #furry #furryart #animation

I swear, I'm gonna stop talking about Glass Onion soon but glob, this cast is so good because every time I'm looking for something for one person, someone is in the back being great.

Man, I love ensemble movies!!

I'm southern so my thought was "Now what would have happened if she thought they were intruders and shot both of them?"

WHICH IS EQUALLY BAD AND SHE WOULD HAVE BEEN BLAMED FOR THAT TOO!!

Don't make me tap the Robert Pattinson quote, Leto.

“I always say about people who do method acting, you only ever see people do the method when they’re playing an assholes,” Pattinson said in an interiew with Variety in November. “You never see someone being lovely to everyone while they’re really deep in character.”

MB is has a similar problem as self-insert characters in that everyone has a different take on how it looks.

Like, is Skaarsgard a bad choice for it? Kinda but only cuz I wanted a more marginalized actor for the role but I can't say much other than that. Murderbot is us, we are Murderbot
