I keep seeing batshit takes about Del Toro's Frankenstein like this and it drives me insane.
This is like finishing Shrek and getting mad because you think the theme is "Physical beauty is the most important thing in the world"

The transformation in Del Toro's version is not just a matter of a "happy ending" it permeates the text.
Eg in Shelly's book, the act of creating the monster is so *EVIL* Victor refuses to describe it, in GDT, he REVELS in the act of creation, it's a waltz, it's the most joyous part of the film.

GUILLERMO DEL TORO & MIKE FLANAGAN: Well...we think maybe the classic horror novel should be different...
STANLEY KUBRICK: You think "maybe" it should be different. How do you think "maybe" it should be different?
DEL TORO & FLANAGAN: ...a nicer ending?
KUBRICK: a NiCeR eNdiNg???

The government's intelligence gathering apparatus is literally "I saw this snuff film on X" now and I have no idea why people haven't realized this or still post there regularly like you're not feeding a government surveillance firehose.
They are coming to Charlotte literally because of a few right-wing propaganda accounts on X and I am livid.
Gregory Bovino, the top Border Patrol official leading the charge on the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown in cities, and his officers are heading to Charlotte, according to a source familiar with the planning. That was news to city officials. https://cnn.it/49crpZT

it’s like all the assumptions about Spielberg’s childishness as a filmmaker and squeamishness around adult intimacy get projected onto this one scene, which if some great European director did it, everyone would call it genius

my hottest take about Munich is that the flashback/sex scene at the end of the movie is one of the most daring, morally complex, beautifully rendered scenes in a movie from the 2000s, and people only crap on it because we’re all too juvenile and afraid of sex

The term "Inside baseball" is technically inside baseball itself, since in places like Australia, where Baseball isn't popular at all, the phrase has no meaning.

The New York Times had this information about Epstein and Trump a year before the 2016 election, and said "but her emails is a more interesting topic."
It was misogyny—the publication actively helped derail Hillary Clinton's campaign—but it really does look like catch and kill, too.

To recap: Jeffrey Epstein offered a NY Times reporter photos taken in Epstein's kitchen of Donald Trump and girls in bikinis *and* implored the NYT reporter to put this information in the public discourse in 2015
