SaitoRyo Posted March 4 Posted March 4 The trailer was released a couple days ago and there are certainly a few anti-woke jokes in there. Quote
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted March 4 Moderators Posted March 4 That looks uh ... Very American... Is probably the most charitable way I could put it Quote
Paid Members FLips Posted March 4 Paid Members Posted March 4 The speed in which they crammed a lazy pronouns joke into it is actually astonishing, even for the very low expectations I already had. Quote
Paid Members Jazzy G Posted March 5 Paid Members Posted March 5 It won't be anywhere near as controversial as they like to think it is. A joke about republicans being racists? I've got sponges that are edgier than that. Typical throw everything at the wall and hope some of it sticks nonsense. Bit disappointed that I think I saw Bruce Campbell in the trailer. Quote
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted March 5 Moderators Posted March 5 Why would you be disappointed to see Bruce Campbell? He's always been of the philosophy that work is work. And it's not like he's so minted he should be turning down a job. Quote

And it's not like he's so minted he should be turning down a job. He'll also be happy to be working enough to qualify for health insurance, since he was recently diagnosed with a treatable (but not curable) form of cancer. In saying all this, I didn't clock him in the trailer and he's not listed as being in the cast on IMDB. Quote
DavidB6937 Posted March 5 Posted March 5 Definitely didn't see Bruce in the trailer. What I did see was a bunch of low, lazy jokes. Definitely fits with the 'anti woke' agenda for sure. "Ooh look at us! We can say these things!" Quote
Paid Members BomberPat Posted March 5 Paid Members Posted March 5 the answer is "it's always just been a grift anyway", but surely the fact that they can tell these jokes, and that those jokes are already old and tired, exposes "anti-cancel culture" as being absolute bollocks? Well, you weren't cancelled for saying any of it, were you? So what are you on about? Quote
DavidB6937 Posted March 5 Posted March 5 Just a marketing thing isn't it? "Hey look, we're saying and doing what we're not meant to!" and there's plenty enough people dumb enough to fall for it. Loads of old school comedians make a living off it. Quote

It's a legal grift, but a grift nonetheless. Quote
Cannibal Man Posted March 5 Posted March 5 when they get through with cancel culture perhaps they can tackle the miners strike or the invention of plastic Quote

Same as when you see a cancelled comedian talking about themselves being cancelled on their latest streaming comedy special. Quote
Paid Members Jazzy G Posted March 6 Paid Members Posted March 6 I thought that was him during the "smile" parody clip. Mind you it'd only be like when Leslie Nielsen turned up in an earlier one, I guess. Quote
Paid Members Scratch Posted March 7 Paid Members Posted March 7 The racist couple over the road who have just put their house on the market so they can move to Dubai (🤷♂️) will absolutely love that. Quote
