@NapoleonWilson they didn't bifurcate while doing in Zomato case I explain above. Also what about international supoort being seen in positive sense ?

@Memor-X it's good that Franco coverage is balanced not partial

@NapoleonWilson also Justice League was global but Snyder cut they are releasing on HBO Max which is not even exist outside US

Q: Why didn't the British silence or suppress their weapons behind enemy lines?

5:17 AM

At 1:26:28/2:56:12 in A Bridge Too Far, Maj Gen Urquhart and his squad or platoon (I'm uncertain which term) are behind enemy lines and trying to dodge Germans. But why didn't they silence or suppress their weapons? Doubtless they wouldn't desire Germans to hear gunshots that'll just attract mo...

@MovieReel how does a children animation TV have cult status if it's not Sesame street?

Why wouldn't it?

The Teletubbies or Barney are cult, too.

Q: Why did Piston ask that question?

In Donnie Brasco (1997), sitting in the car, lefty told Piston how he supported Sonny Blacks family while Sonny Black was in prison. Now Lefty is meeting Sonny Black despite the fact that he think Sonny Black might have planned to murder Lefty. Lefty: Sometimes I think, in that orphanage, t...

@NapoleonWilson Teletubbies seems more sexual undertone to me :D

Unsurprisingly.

Barney is purple, too, though. ;-)

Purple being gay or carrying a purse I don't mind

The triangle, don't forget the ominous triangle.

But touching bumps with toys and other one getting tickles ?

Well, that's what kids do, I guess.

A lot of what kids do ultimately can have sexual undertones.

@NapoleonWilson maybe

I'm more bothered by the core assumption of the show that kids are just plain dumb. ;-)

(Not that that wasn't the truth, but maybe it shouldn't be the aspiration.)

11:36 AM

@NapoleonWilson usually children don't contribute to the cult status, so it's gotta be super old so the kids watching it would already have been bored adults

Barney is a monstrosity

If kids could have taken offense on Twitter, they would have. It's really ageist

Memor-X

@M.A.R. he's the pre-evolved form of Grimace

@M.A.R. Dinosaurs tend to be, yes.

@M.A.R. I would rather pose the question if Twitter-offendees are anything but kids. ;-)

MARFUNCTION?

@AnkitSharma well people (who are able to use twitter) have consumed enough covid news that they'd do anything that can kill their time

every week there's a big boss trend (no offence) which I find stupid ;p

After posting this question here: Frida Kahlo, Warhol, Klimt, Picasso - Which other artists are referenced in the Hey Duggee 'Art Badge' episode? I revised it so that it properly explains how the visual refrences within the minifilm are essential to being able to properly understand or apprecia...

Q: Why is everyone so focused on the black box in LOST?

7:18 PM

Ok maybe not everyone, but in two examples after the crash of Oceanic flight 815 we see survivors claiming that the rescue planes will find them and the reason the give is "the plane had a black box". First is Shannon talking to Boone "the plane had a black box, stupid..." and the other is Ana Lu...
