Well if they get to rule over the aftermath I am sure they are all in

When I was in 7th or 8th grade thirty years ago, I drew a picture of the Capitol building with a giant pair of mouse ears covering the rotunda for a project on political cartoons. I'm now watching it happen in reality. 11/12 year old me knew something.

but it’s a sacrifice they’re willing to make.

Uh Mark, they fired Kimmel to begin with. So, that doesn't make any sense. Clearly don't mind breaking America if they make money doing so through gov favoritism to get monopoly mergers long term. Only regret is potential mass subscription cancellations. Not sure if we'll ever see the numbers on that, and I suspect it's a short term pain when it comes to the USA citizens holding to anything.

They haven't fired Kimmel; they've suspended his show indefinitely, i.e. with the possibility of a return.

Possibility if he agrees to being muzzled I'm sure.

From my understanding, they had a talk with him after the monologue on Monday and he refused to be muzzled. That's why he was suspended. I think he's successful enough to stick to his principles and why he was suspended in the first place.

AFAIK it’s in his contract, as long as he is within the rules (which he was) he can say whatever he wants to

He's got fuck you money, so he said fuck you.

I'm confused. Mark Ruffalo said this?
This has "What does Ja Rule think?" Energy.

He is a long standing actor in the MCU and is an actor with a long history of sometimes talking about social issues.

If just RDJ said anything it would be, for a lack of better words, Doomsday for the franchise.

Psh, they already axed one big bad, what's another one?

Maybe they can get Edward Norton back. He played a nazi in American History X so maybe he can pretend to be okay with this.

Thanks for reminding me how much I enjoyed watching Eddie furlong die in a urinal after his whiney bitch ass turned the Terminator franchise into "my pet robot"

The us is already broken, it was done by one old guy. That guy? Not tRUMP. Nope, it was putin...with a lot of help from the obese orange imbecile.
The tangerine buffoon can't tie up his shoelaces alone, so there's no way he could break a whole country alone.

It is going down. I was also shocked to hear over half a dozen people I know are canceling. Nobody ever does anything about anything... But people are legit canceling Disney plus and Hulu.
Get rid of your stock if you own Disney. Seriously.

I canceled today. Fuck them.

Who the fuck cares? Can we not have a group for discussing movies and TV and omit the celebrity worship? This is how we ended up in this mess in the first place.

To be fair, I skip the weekly SNL stuff when I submit articles (I posted this because of relevance to the Kimmel situation) - but gotta keep content flowing to keep communities active. It'd be great if individuals post more things - and sometimes they do.
