Jonathan ,'Touched'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
I don't understand how if Wikipedia is not a reliable source, TUMBLR should be reported verbatim from, but whatevs...
Yeah, I've tried discussing this with journalism students a few times and they really don't see the problem. Their answer usually amounts to "because convention," which, OK, I use to explain why I want them to indent paragraphs and such, but that's different!
But I have feminist issues with it
Oh yeah, I was really bummed out by the "Bitch!" at the end. NO NEED.
I am assuming Gamora was Widow-esque. I don't get why.
Also "whore" from Drax in re: Gamora.
Which, as people have pointed out, doesn't make sense because he's completely literal and Gamora has not exchanged sex for money at any time to his knowledge.
In. Deed.
Yeah, that.
Also, I thought her name was Gomorrah for the whole movie.
Kris Straub theorizes that Drax heard the prisoners call Gamora a whore and took it literally, assuming that was what she was, whatever it meant.
That would make sense, PC. I have to wonder, though, if that means some earlier lines were cut that would have made Drax's calling her that make more sense if they had been left in.
