Rules

1.) No bigotry of any kind, and don't be a jerk either

Bigotry includes but is not limited to: ableism, casteism, homophobia, lookism, queerphobia, racism, sexism, transphobia, and xenophobia. Bigotry towards non-binary people is transphobia. Truscum rhetoric is also bigotry. You getting punished for your hateful opinion, however, is not bigotry.

2.) No Spam

This includes both advertising and breaking your or my Lemmy instance's rules, such as vote manipulation or brigading.

3.) Posts must have something to do with being trans, or about trans experiences

Try to stay away from negative political events too. You can joke about it, but bringing attention to something bad happening in the world might take someone out of their comfort zone— this is an escape from the constant news cycle for some.

4.) No Selfies or Character Creations

Selfies are not memes! This is not a community for selfies. Picrews and other character creations such as Sims and Mii's are considered bandwagoning, and perhaps can be a part of a different community.

5.) SFW-only

This is an all ages community, so we prefer it if you take the NSFW stuff to one of the more adult oriented communities. Note: nudity is not allowed, we want everybody to be comfortable here.

6.) Submissions must be a meme or they will be removed
7.) Swearing is fine, but slurs are not

We want everybody to feel safe and comfortable here, so even if you want to reclaim a pejorative word that applies to you— we ask that you don't, as this is a light-hearted community and others stumbling across your post might feel unsafe.

8.) Embedded submissions should only link to trusted image sharing sites, no IP grabbers or link shorteners
9.) Use but don't misuse the report button

If something breaks these rules, or this Lemmy instance's rules, please report it.

10.) Please do not link to any terf, racist, or any other hate communities or forums

Bigots like those do not deserve any attention. Any post or comment linking to a hate community or forum will be removed

11.) Don't be a jerk nor a troll

Be nice, and don't create social chaos. That's it. Pretty simple, huh?

Some notes:

1.) We highly encourage you to use alt text in your posts, so everybody can enjoy this community
2.) It would be really nice if you flaired your posts accordingly in the title

For example, a meme about the non-binary experience could have a title like this: "[NB] Story of my life!" This will make searching for content much easier.

3.) Don't break the law

This includes the country you live in as well as the country your instance is hosted in

Sibling forums:

!egg_irl

Trans memes specifically about being closeted, unaware or in denial

!196

Ordinary memes, but the community is very trans-accepting— and it only has one rule: when you encounter the page you must post a meme from your camera roll

Don’t boo him he’s right.

Same with Nolan honestly, overrated as fuck. Go back and watch the Nolan Batman and you’ll see some of the absolute worst action scenes and fight choreography in cinema. He also seems to take pride in being a pretentious fuck who interjects all his movies with fart art bullshit, instead of just focusing on making the movie watchable

Oh, you don't have a 17.5ch cinema surround sound set at home? Too bad, guess subtitles it is.

[–] Baylahoo@sh.itjust.works 11 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Even cinemas struggled to make that audio mix nightmare distinguishable. You need subtitles every other scene with your 17.5 surround

[–] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

That's really at least half of the movies released nowadays, not just his.

A big part of why I've mostly deserted movie theatres.

interjects all his movies with fart art bullshit

Honestly I don't see this one, but maybe it's because I'm used to way worse

[–] DerArzt@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Try watching Tenet at home without subtitles.

The fact that Nolan puts in the effort to try to elevate his films above being popcorn slop is often what makes them stand out even if they sometimes fall short in other ways. If every director just painted by numbers then every movie would be a Marvel movie.

[–] But_my_mom_says_im_cool@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Nolan is like a try hard who can quite reach the level of artist he strives for even with a half a billion dollar budget. Even with all his resources he’ll never come close to being a Sergio Leone or a Scorcese

[–] Carl@lemm.ee 1 points 20 hours ago

I don't understand why you seem to think that this is a bad thing. Scorcese is a top ten of all time in his field - if every director who wasn't as good as he is just gave up then we wouldn't have any directors.

There's probably no movie that changed my life as much as Interstellar. It's literally one reason why I'm starting my master's thesis in physics now. So Nolan movies will always be something special for me.

[–] lud@lemm.ee 11 points 2 days ago

Interstellar is really great. I just watched it on IMAX and I wish I had earlier.

[–] Zannsolo@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Are you writing it on how love transcends physics.

[–] Chrobin@discuss.tchncs.de 11 points 2 days ago

Yeah, I admit that part is pretty bad (even though you can discard it as her interpretation without it being the message of the movie, but I can see the issue with that). My point still stands. Literally why I got into cosmology.

[–] DrBabyJesus@lemm.ee 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The fact that Nolan isn’t getting the hint that people fucking HATE his sound mixing choices is insane to me.

I think it was Tenet that I watched for like 20 minutes and turned it off it was so frustrating, i couldn’t hear anything but murmuring

[–] monke@lemmy.cafe 8 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Agree but Interstellar and Oppy are still goated though.

[–] jawsua@lemmy.one 1 points 15 hours ago

The Prestige is better

[–] m0darn@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I don't watch a lot of film, is it that these guys use the Nicholas Cage "let the editor do all the acting" technique?

[–] Carl@lemm.ee 9 points 1 day ago

He's actually just wrong. Nolan has a lot of action scenes in a lot of his movies, and while some of them do suck most of them are actually pretty great.

[–] Psythik@lemmy.world -4 points 1 day ago

Glad I'm not the only one with this opinion. Nolan films suck. Batman Begins was okay, though. But the second one was boring and I couldn't even finish the 3rd. Within seconds of hearing that ridiculous voice Bane was doing, I had to turn it off cause I couldn't stop laughing at how bad it sounded.

Interstellar was alright as well. But the second act felt rushed. Not a terrible film, just overrated as you said.
