1->Though Strauss makes great effort to critique the the vain emptiness of some aspects of the game culture and the transformation of nice goofy guys into slick lotharios, he behaves in almost the exact same way but paints ''his'' exploits in a radioactive awesome colour (because when the alpha-game-messiah does it it's all cool braaah).

4->''The episode's message ends up completely garbled. Intended as a condemnation of homophobia, the episode instead comes off as the story of one woman's brave quest for cock in the face of lesbian tyranny.''

7->''If your movie has a problem with showing people doing stuff, then maybe you shouldn't make a movie about people doing that stuff. You're just confusing the audience.''

10->The topics vary, but many of them are concerned with God-fearing murderers and rapists ending up in Paradise because they accept the Holy Spirit, whereas the good guys go to hell.

13->''Let's put aside that the filmmakers might have feared alienating the presumably large pro-gun segment of Seagal's fanbase (such as it now is). More to the point, most if not all of Seagal's films revolve around [[AuthorTract evil plots perpetrated by elements of the U.S. Government.]] So he's hardly in a position to point at others and yell ‘paranoia.’''

16->''Obviously people were going out to [drum 'n' bass] nights then, just as they are now, but by 2009 it had long since stopped being at the bleeding edge. [The Drum 'N' Bassment is] not completely incongruous as a name for a club, but it does help bolster the argument that Moore's out of his depth here [...] this is where the youth is, where the new stuff's happening. Don't be wagging your finger and telling everyone creativity's dead if the last time you had any idea what was going on in popular music was 1995.''

22->'''Red Guy''': You know, kiddies, there is a moral here.\
23'''Cow''': Oh, there is?\
24'''Red Guy''': Yes; ''crime doesn't pay!''\
25'''Cow''': ...I do not understand.\

29->'''Luna''': So what did we learn here today?\
30'''Lincoln''': That if your family member resents you, you can always buy their affection back?\
31'''Lucy''': Or that if you act like a brat, your family will shower you with gifts.\
32'''Luna''': Sounds about right.

35->''Some look at this movie with a light-hearted nature and say it shows a struggle in a youth, and there's some moral lesson, to stand up to things and be brave. ''[[SarcasmMode Yeah, sure.]]'' [[SarcasmMode I guess it means to stand up to people who are much bigger than you and fight monsters that shoot electricity!]] I don't buy it.''

38->''Now that I've proved my writing prowess, I think everyone will recognize that my UrbanFantasy setting is the perfect place to add a bunch of social commentary. [[SarcasmMode And in today's cultural climate this is definitely a safe idea that can in no way backfire if mishandled]]! My plot and characters may be barely functioning and paper thin, but I'm sure I've got the skill to flawlessly navigate serious real world issues that affect actual living people in a story about witches making out with faeries. Research multiple perspectives on a hot button issue? Learning the actual culture of a marginalized people who will be represented in the story? Maybe ask more than one person if this is a good allegory and not like really racist if you think about it for more than five seconds? [[IgnoredEpiphany Nah! Full steam ahead!]]''

41->''"''Superman IV: The Quest for Peace'' belongs in a very special category of movies. Namely, movies with ideas that just can not be dealt with in a satisfactory way in a single film. The notion of ComicBook/{{Superman}} ridding the world of nuclear weapons is so vast and complex that there's no way to do it justice in a two-hour timeframe. (Or a 90-minute timeframe, as the case may be.)"''

47->''"[''WesternAnimation/{{Zootopia}}''] seems obsessed with [[{{Anvilicious}} broadcasting its message right in your face]] throughout the whole thing, but its effectiveness is dampened because it’s trying to [[FantasticRacism connect real-world racism issues to prey and predator animals]] despite that connection [[FridgeLogic not really making much sense]]. Previously I praised this movie for advocating against stereotypes and racism in general without really making any one-to-one connections with the real world. But the more I analyze this movie, the more I realize that it clearly ''wants'' to say something about the real world. It clearly wants to say something that its characters and world just aren’t capable of, because equating predator animals to actual people is really f[=[=][[SoundEffectBleep dolphin chirps]][=]=]ed. And I shouldn’t have to point that out, Creator/{{Disney}}. It’s really uncomfortable, especially considering how much of the movie’s plot hinges on it."''
