- Mr. Tomlinson's feud started after members of the now-defunct Reddit site r/opieandanthony got his Twitter account suspended, causing him to threaten some bored trolls who never heard of him with a libel lawsuit. The trolls responded predictably.
- Mr. Tomlinson has been instructed many times by friends, family, police, and attorneys to stop engaging with his trolls, and that continuing to provoke them will cause him to be trolled even more. Mr. Tomlinson wilfully ignores this advice
- He would eventually file a defamation suit against 60 anonymous people which was dismissed with Mr. Tomlinson being ordered to pay $34,762.25 for opposing parties' attorney fees.
- He ended up paying $83,736.99 due to his unsuccessful attempts to dodge the court-ordered judgement, for which he faced jail time and contempt charges.
- He also filed 2 frivolous restraining orders against people who had engaged in First Amendment-protected behavior (one for texting him and another for attending his contempt of court hearing), both of which were dismissed.
- Early on in the lawsuit, Mr. Tomlinson vandalized his own motorcycle and submitted a false police report blaming the people he was suing.
- He accidentally sent surveillance video of the alleged vandal (himself) to a troll.
- Mr. Tomlinson has never shown this video footage during any of his media tours, and desperately tries to scrub it from the internet.
- Mr. Tomlinson claims that the surveillance video was initiated by his "motion-activated" camera, which only collects "30 seconds at a time", despite the video being 32 seconds long and beginning several seconds before the "vandal" enters into the frame.
- On 13 April 2023, the individual responsible for calling the fake emergencies (SWATs) to Mr. Tomlinson's house, a SWAT-for-hire dealer named "Torswats", revealed that Mr. Tomlinson ordered the SWATs to his own house because he wanted to get in the news and sue the MPD for money.
- Torswats would repeat these allegations in private chats which were not intended for public view.
- Mr. Tomlinson has gone on multiple news tours since the SWATtings started in order to promote his victimhood brand, utilizing the services of Lenora Claire.
- He also recently sued the MPD for money.

I love cheese dick 90s disaster movies.
- Thread starter Mr. Faggotry
- Start date
The original Team America movie was supposed to be a disaster movie remake parody. They were trying to get the rights to Armageddon but could not so they went with the action movie parody instead.
I forgot the great Robert Duvall was in Deep Impact. Might have to give that one another viewing. I can watch that man fold laundry he’s so damn good. In fact I would rather watch him play a laundry attendant than a spaceman who “pew pew” saves the world from a meteor. What am I five?
But could you watch him pick blueberries?
I watch The Rock, Con Air, Independence Day, and Starship Troopers at least once a year.
I like arachnophobia (1990), its a cheesy movie but not disaster related.
Yo, I'll give you that 90s movies were better than the shit we've got now, but all three of those movies stink
I was actually thinking about Twister the other day in one of those "wow, I'm old" moments. When I was a kid that was such a massive movie but I doubt anyone under 25 has even heard of it. John C. Reilly is the only actor in that movie that's still culturally relevant at this point.
Trivia: Bill Paxton's cunty wife in this movie is now a part owner of the Atlanta Hawks.

The 90s was just a great decade. You ever watch The Nanny?
Movies are done, brotherman. In the era before they died VHS, Cable TV, magazines and radio were the rate limit on media consumption. The attention span was formed by that.
It's too fast now. It's not that people are genetically suddenly ADHD. It's that the rate limit on access/choice/consumption went from a steady, decades long 25 to 400 MPH. Movies as we know of them were born of and can only exist in that smooth 25 zone. The format and its ability impact the broader culture is a relic. It can't be reproduced. New movies are cringe not just because of woke ideology or ticket sale calculation pandering, but because they present themselves as having the capacity to influence as the format used to. They can't, it's a legacy format.
You're looking at something that can only exist in that media context, limited by technology of its time. The 90s were the last decade in that smooth 25mph zone. It's done brah, it's over, we can't go back. But it's def nice to pretend now and then. Personally, I don't watch any movie made after say about 2009

Let's put some snap bracelets on and suck each other's cocks
I might be wearing rose tinted glasses, but I think at this point I would take the cheesy cape shit of the 90's over the current "too serious but too quippy" cape shit anyday.
Schinkle bout it: Billy Zane in "The Phantom". Alec Baldwin in "The Shadow". Val Kilmer in"Batman Forever". Warren Beatty's "Dick Tracy". Joe Johnston's "The Rocketeer". The unreleased Corman-produced "Fantastic Four". Christ, Shaq in "Steel". They're fucking awful! But they had something the current films don't have: character. In a manufactured system of being fed the same horseshit with each movie by Marvel, even a film from the 90's that failed is still a far better watch because of their individuality. It was a group of people making a film with no established guidelines, going by a directors and stars vision - "The Shadow" especially, which I admit I'm fond of.
I dunno. Simpler time, I guess.

You're onto something here.
As a kid (or as an adult, but I'm a child of the 90s), you'd go into a video rental (Blockbuster or any alternative you remember) and spend a good 30 mins delicately picking out films you wanted to watch. And then you'd watch those movies with NO DISTRACTIONS. No phone, no laptop. You sat there and watched the thing; even if you're chatting to someone, eating pizza, whatever: the focus was the movie.
You ever watch The Crow? It's a total piece of shit (although the cinematography hold up, I guess) but it holds up because it's a mainstream, "hey, this is a goth superhero movie". It's in its own weird category. Its flaws don't matter because there's not countless ripoffs of it. It's not like that lame Spiderman movie with Venom in it or whatever.
I haven't seen Dick Tracy in forever, but at least that was "hey here's a weird niche thing that some people might be into, but we need mainstream appeal so Madonna's in it". I don't even remember if it was good, but it had an appeal in itself.
I disagree. Many of the “great” 90s movies that everyone constantly bring up are horrible. Totally depends on the genre. True Romance and the Usual Suspects are horrible movies for example that are universally talked about as great movies from the 90s.
Watch some cape shit Marvel movie from today, they’re all the same, and they aren’t comparable to the disaster movies of the 90s.
It's probably due to them not being made by the same companies over and over like the current business model where it's the same shit smeared on the screen year after year.
And thankfully this capeshit hit the fucking wall as that dumb Black Widow film took a shit. Disney doesn't have the confidence to buy out entire theaters for a billion dollars like they did with rotten toenails Captain Marvel.
I didn't mind capeshit until it has to be a five film a year anxiety attack where you're fucking inundated with advertising.
I was constantly recommended to see (((Iron-Man))) and never bothered.
Read this title in a sandy cane voice. I love dick.
booooo
booooo
Those Marvel movies are horrible, but they look amazing. Most movies these day look great and they've got pacing down to a science (for the most part) but the stories all tend to lack causality and the characters are barely human.

Deep impact is basically armageddon, just more depressing. Not bad when I watched it recently. though I had not seen it since it came out, if at all. But yea robert duvall can play anyone and make it interesting. He even made you like a lawyer in Godfather.
90s actioners are great like that because they are just action, nothing to follow that's too complicated but suspenseful, funny quips and violence. I rewatch The Last Boyscout every so often for that reason. Honestly I treat that as sort of the prototype for the 90s action movies that came after
