It’s simply that she, like every other israeli, did national service (with the IDF). Presumably at some point a good deal of years before she was in WW. Because it’s typically for 18 year olds.

Now, absolutely nobody was mad about this at the time she appeared in wonder woman, but they are now that the war has flared up.

This is why there’s been a little campaign of vitriol about her acting abilities, too.

I just think that if people actualy cared about (either of) these things they would’ve complained about them some time before Palestine entered wider public conscience. It’s common knowledge that israelis have to dk military service with the IDF, after all.

RIP to Miss Snyder, I had no idea that happened.

Wonder Woman Vol. 1

I’ve seen just less than half of these, Wonder Woman being one of the first I watched. PAINFULLY BLAND. I don’t understand this movie at all. It seemed like the characters were blank stones and not very much happened except “we need to go to x location and fight some people.”

Please correct me if I’m wrong because i was a teenager and texting on my phone for the whole thing, but that is how I remember it.

Birds of Prey, 'triggered a culture war,"

Never heard of this in my life. And i was spending 24h a day online during covid, lol. I’m guessing anon just didn’t want to break the post’s pattern. I know the feeling.

Personally I heard that Birds of Prey and THE Suicide Squad were amazing.

Aquaman

Jason Momoa’s Aquaman isn’t really Aquaman. The film was very generic.

Blue Beetle, “Nobody saw this”

Again, looks like anon desperately wanted to stick to the bit - but this time had no ammunition to throw at the film.

Flash

I actually can’t get into what a disaster this actor and the film itself have been for the DCU. It makes the whole series of films seem like the work of a shadowy organisation of supervillains.

Shazam

Fairly good film, my boomer parents loved it, looking back i have some misgivings on the villain charscter but i can’t remember why.

Shazam - Fury of the Gods

It had bad villains apparently, i didn’t actually watch it myself.

I know it’s just a dumb greentext but crediting the fikm with Zachary Levi going schizo seems disingenuous… that’s probably because he is actually the closest thing to an “evil zionist” among these stars. Not everything needs an origin story!

Black Adam

I highly recommend anyone interested in DC movies to watch “who killed the DCU?” On youtube instead of this movie.

• anything i didn’t comment on you akready know why and have heard all the talk about it before

So she got annoyed because she thought you were going to start insulting her too?

That’s fascinating, I’m gonna hunt for more stories on filipino-english miscommunication now. Like, do none of them get colloquialisms or was it just a “her” thing ? Lol.

I’ve known people like this; can confirm it’s 100% as you describe.

Vague… they’re going to gouge their eyes out or they’re going to become oedipus and fuck their own mom?

Tbh right, in the last year or two I’ve come to accept that there is an absolute religious continuity from ancient paganism to the newest mainstream ones (e.gChristianity and islam). It might be a vague connection at times but you can see pretty clearly how one story or one ritual became different as a culture moved into a new age or a new area.

• The words “Zeus,” and Deus and Jupiter all come from the same root word.

• Every religion has a flood story

• Religious texts reflect on the old faiths that their founders were raised in, or those worshipped by them around them

Anyway why am I saying all this? Well, I don’t know if God would actually go "You need to make a new religion. It tends to be "you need to fix the current religion, take control of it.

EDIT: I should have read ahead to see just how silly this greentext actually is before I engaged with it as a serious idea, lol.
