Yes, which is why ICE and all immigration enforcement under Trump is many, many times worse than under the Dems and still would be even if the reforms were in place because Trump is ignoring the laws and court orders that should be preventing him from deporting people to 3rd party countries just like he ignored the orders against separating children from parents.
Even if the Dems were sugar and spice and everything nice we would still have some kind of immigration enforcement in place and it would have been twisted into to what it is now because conservatives don't care about following the laws they dislike.
That's a lot of links. Which one is about Obama directing ICE to steal children from families instead of incarcerating them together in family detention or deporting them together?
I said they dial it back to shitty levels which are not as bad as masked plainclothes agents in unmarked cars kidnapping people on the street or stealing children while families are detained.
The studios shouldn't listen to people like you for most movies because you have an absolute preference for one type of ending that doesn't fit all movies. They should be filtering out your type of opinion when screening Se7en or Fallen or Hereditary, and thankfully they did, but unfortunately they often overreact and slap in an undeserved happy ending.
It is fine for you to have your opinion on what to watch. I like all kinds of endings as long as they fit. I'm complaining about the studios listening to people who aren't really the target audience of the movie being made if they want an ending that doesn't really fit.
There needs to be some kind of immigration enforcement just to handle the processing of people as they complete the immigration process. This requires some level of funding, and due to inflation and growing populations it will always result in record breaking funding at some point.
Democrats were denouncing ICE in 2017-2020 because the administration was ordering ICE to pursue practices like stealing children. They are denouncing them now because ICE is kidnapping people off the street and when they show up for court hearings when they are complying with court orders.
This list implies that the Dems are wrong for ever funding ICE and that they are hypocrites for complaining when Republicans are in power. But it glosses over the nuance that ICE really is used far more maliciously when Trump is in power and that denouncing of the specific actions of ICE are completely valid because those are their jackboot thug years.
Dems are shitty on immigration because they are complicit with lowering immigration maximums and excluding too many people while not promoting reforms that improve how ICE behaves. But it isn't the same thing as supporting the ICEstappo when in office, because they dial it back to a shitty level instead of full on villain mode.
They want to make money, which is why they do test screenings and focus groups and whatever else. It tends to result in bland and mediocre movies that do really well financially overall.
The ones that we don't hear about being changed due to test screenings and executive meddling tend to be creative and interesting. Maybe they did do the test screenings and took the better feedback to improve some things instead of just going with whatever came back. There are multiple ways to use input including ignoring it when the feedback obviously missed the point of the movie, like when they panic and slap a happy ending on because the test audience didn't like a logically downer ending.
Yes, if they have already figured out how to handle bullies in grade school/middle school. Early grade school there was a bully who picked on me and my older brother helped out. By grade five I was the one helping other kids who were being bullied.
A lot of credit goes to youth groups like 4-H for helping to build self confidence and how to care for others. May have been lucky getting a solid local group though.
It is James Gunn so if you liked Guardians of the Galaxy and/or The Suicide Squad (the good one without Will Smith) then I'm guessing it will be fun as there is a lot going on in the trailers and it includes things from the comics that are normally excluded from superhero movies for being too 'weird' like a super powered dog.
It might not be as popular with general audiences as other versions for the reasons you mention whether it is good or not.
That works for small cars with hoods that slope to the ground like sedans and station wagons. It is outdated and useless advice for anyone in an SUV, pickup, or the vast majority of vehicles on the road today in the US.
It should be far enough back to be able to turn and move out if the car in front of you stalls, which should be easy to estimate for anyone who can parallel park.
Everyone should be able to parallel park, it is part of the driving test.
They are fairly insecure in practice, since they are throwing the data at misdialed numbers and they are frequently placed in shared and insecure locations in the building where lots of people can access whatever comes through.
If one has to pay for it then it isn't a right.
Driving a car is a privilege.
