As one studio after another began clamoring to pay Sinners’s $90 million-ish asking price, the director’s agents at WME notified them of a few strings attached. Coogler would retain final cut (a creative dispensation reserved for the industry’s crème de la crème), command first-dollar gross (that is, a percentage of box-office revenue beginning from the movie’s theatrical opening rather than waiting for the studio to turn a profit), and, most contentiously, 25 years after its release, ownership of Sinners would revert to the director.

And they say it like this is A Bad Thing, creators should have more control over the things they make - Hollywood shafting people just makes everything worse. The studios are still going to make plenty of money.

Yeah, I’ve cut out added sugar apart from special occasions but I’d still pick up something for family or friends (Malteaster bunnies or white chocolate and raspberry eggs have been popular in the past) but I haven’t seen anything that didn’t look like a standard chocolate brand trying a rip-off egg with underwhelming contents. I might look a bit harder tomorrow but I can’t see myself getting anything this year.

What I have noticed is an attempt to sell seasonal tatt as they do at Halloween and Christmas - I’ve even seen “Easter bunny please stop here” signs and lawn decorations that seem an increasing trend.

Not me.

Not as far as I’m aware - The Guardian says it was only officers who trans women with a GRC who were allowed to search those AFAB. So officers couldn’t pick and chose to suit them.

The BTP jumped on this almost instantly as they’d been under fire because trans women on the force could strip search those AFAB.

I’m waiting for next shoe to drop when someone AFAB complains because they get strip searched by a big hairy bloke because he was also AFAB. At no point does anyone seem to have considered the effect this law will have on trans men now having to go into women-only spaces. I don’t think JK Rowling cares about the messy fallout from her War on Trans Women.

Turkey is also in Europe. Partly.

I’d guess that, while this is heading to the cinema, Amazon would be looking to start a TV series too.

The hose clamp is for fixing your undergarments.

I’m just miffed they don’t still have the print for sale. Still I will own that Dad’s Army of Darkness t-shirt one day.

I am also old as fuck and that is probably the best bit.

Lends itself to all sorts of reinterpretations:

Now trans and cis people are going to get harassed for being in the wrong bathrooms by the gender police.

They said on the radio that the changes in bathroom laws in the US have mainly impacted butch lesbians. This is going to get messy.

It’s a group funded by JK Rowling, she is laser-focused on trans woman and so intersex people and trans men are an after thought, if they are even given a thought.

FWS, which is partly funded by the writer JK Rowling

“Millionaire spends cash to make people’s lives worse”

They argue that a very clear definition by the court on what a woman is would also help clear up an ambiguity about who qualifies to use women’s services.They argue that a very clear definition by the court on what a woman is would also help clear up an ambiguity about who qualifies to use women’s services.

There doesn’t seem any ambiguity: Do they have a GRC? It’s either either yes or no. Trying to define a woman is difficult and could lead to a lot more ambiguity.

They say people who self-identify as trans but do not have a gender recognition certificate are being allowed to use women-only services and spaces.

Laws are broken all the time, it’s not an argument to change the laws.

No
