    There are no applicable laws that I know about, and as a voice actor I am similarly concerned. There is a lot of focus on this in the industry atm, but we all know how glacially slow government moves. SAG-AFTRA and NAVA have this as a focus currently, and I'm watching with interest.

    Jump
  • Talaraine Talaraine 7 months ago 100%

    Yeah I loved the effects and the cinematography, I mean that's what makes new movies fantastic... it's a showcase of how real we can get things to look.

    But the books were filled from cover to cover with worldbuilding that's a whole lot more than vistas. There's reasons and motivations that lead you to where the story begins and a failure to grasp at least some of those (Butlerian Jihad, Bene Gesserit, Guild Navigators and ofc the SPICE) leaves you with what @reddig33 said.

    But the new movies seem very sterile, slow, and dull.

    They are rote action movies that fail to evoke any real emotion, and that's a shame.

    The fact that Israel has put so much effort into changing US law to prevent anyone from claiming anything negative about Israel is a red flag that Israel needs negative things said.

    I fully support the state of Israel and believe that the holocaust happened, and I will STILL call an asshat an asshat. Tough shit. Guess I'll cancel any vacation plans I ever planned in their country.

    The history of impeachment in the United States is important to understanding the Bill Clinton saga. The Founding Fathers wrote impeachment—originally a Roman political institution—into the constitution for the purpose of removing an official who had “rendered himself obnoxious,” in the words of Benjamin Franklin. Without impeachment, Franklin argued, citizens’ only recourse was assassination, which would leave the political official “not only deprived of his life but of the opportunity of vindicating his character.”

    It would be best, Franklin argued, “to provide the Constitution for the regular punishment of the Executive when his misconduct should deserve it, and for his honorable acquittal when he should be justly accused.”

    The bottom line here is that if anyone manages to eliminate prosecution for acts performed while they are president, expect the Punisher. In fact, while I don't normally support violence, I'd have to say it's a patriot's duty.
