It definitely does bother me that there are idiots out there who see companies placing arbitrary restrictions on art and agree with it.

It's like if President Trump announced a new pilot program where every person has to get a GPS device installed in their arm so that the federal government can keep tabs on where everyone is at all times. It's so bizarrely out in left field and such a horrendous idea; of course I'm going to take exception and ridicule any retard who supports the shit.
huh

I would think you of all people would be against tired movie tropes like this.

"art" is how do we make this villain look scarier? Let's give him a scar!

if you call that art, it's lazy art.

Not since when I was really young.
well it's $200

it's actually a pretty popular saying. I don't know how you got it so wrong.

How many villains in the last 15 years have had scars? 5?

Art is whatever the fuck the auteur desires. You don't think The Dark Knight is art? (Excellent art, I might add.)

"Lazy art" sounds a lot like "sluggish schizophrenia."

I wouldn't say I got it "so wrong." I was still dealing in hundreds of dollars. It's not like I said "collect a billion dollars" or "collect your boyfriend's dildo."

what are you getting upset about?

"villains should have scars!"

is that it?

that's dumb.

So "villains can't have scars" is better? I've got a scar on my foot and one on my arm from childhood injuries. I've got one on my head from a hockey puck and now one on my chest to implant a pacemaker. Does that mean I must be typecast a s a good guy all the time?

what reasonableness?

Are you serious? Frankenstein without scar tissue? LOL. On the big screen, Big Al and Lucky wouldn't look right without scars. There's always Baby Face Nelson and the Dapper Don to balance things out.

I don't think this would affect portraying real life villains in movies....

this is probably ONLY for Fiction movies that have no basis to an outside source...

WTF does that have to do with anything?
...that is the reason the BFI said they aren't funding movies with scarred villains anymore

you guys keep bringing up real life characters or movie monsters

I don't think that is what they are talking about.

I think they mean Bond villains and shit like that.

So what? Some villains have to be handsome, some must appear evil even if that means having a big nose, missing teeth, etc. They can’t always appear without some variation on the human anatomy. How exciting would that be?

but why? It seems to be nothing more than a cinematic trope that is way overused. Why does the villain need to look anything but normal?

You are making no sense. You are out of touch. Movies are to entertain people. They’re made without bad intentions. You agree with this UK company that prefers transparent, homogenous, interchangeable villains with black hair, wide, smiles, straight noses, and small ears. Robots and mannequins? LOL.
