DaMonsterKneesSo the recent hate towards Pedro Pascal is JK and her loyalists making shit up because he spoke out that she's an awful person?
FreedomAdvocateNo, most people are just sick of Pedro Pascal, a guy who isn’t even anything special as an actor, being forced down our throat by being cast in every single movie that’s released. It happens to every actor that the industry decides is the “next big thing”.
Once that “actor fatigue” sets in, if they’re also a vocal proponent of ideologies that the public overwhelmingly disagree with, and are openly hateful towards anyone who disagrees with them, well it’s a recipe for backlash.
Also his whole “anxiety” thing where he supposedly needs to be groped by/grope people, yet seemingly only when they’re attractive women…come on, that’s creep behaviour.
“most people”? Citation needed
You really need a citation for that? In a topic asking why there’s so much hate towards him? You need a citation for me answering the question? Did you ask OP for a citation? Are you asking every person who replies in here for citations?
If you were answering from your own personal perspective, no I wouldn’t ask for citations. But you pretty specifically answered on behalf of more than 50% of people, so I was wondering where you pulled that fact from.
lol ah arguing semantics instead of the actual point, I see.
No arguing for clarity, and knowing the difference between your own opinion and speaking for a group of people you know nothing about.
No, semantics because you have no other argument but just don’t like what was said.
Take your meds
MinnesotaGoddamI think those only come in LD50s
iktyou want a citation on the opinion that most people are sick of an actor who is in a lot of movies and TV shows lately?
Do you want this peer reviewed or is just regular polling ok :P
NOT_RICKYou wanna be clerk? Mark me up as not sick of him
I don’t know if it is most people, but Pedro seems to be in a point of oversaturation. I can see some people tiring of him. I can also see some news outlets trying to make money by putting out negative coverage of him.
Which would also get amplified by trans bigots trying to cancel him.
starlingukHe’s barely in anything. If you see him in ‘everything’ you’re seeking him out.
14 movies in 5 years is an insane amount actually.
Like when the public was overwhelmingly opposed to the ideology that blacks and whites should be in the same public spaces, right? Or that they should be allowed to marry? Or that women should get to vote?
Idk man, it seems like majority opinion shouldn’t be considered when talking about people’s rights. We should all have the same rights.
We should all have the same rights, absolutely. That’s not what is being demanded.
forced down our throat by being cast in every single movie that’s released
This is just one of the dumbest things I’ve ever read
paraphrandIf this was Reddit 6 years ago, I’d give you a star. ⭐️
DeebsterHuh, when you put it that way it sounds like a lot - three films a year for a decade and a half, plus the Mandalorian, etc.
As with almost everything, I reckon the truth is in the middle - that there’s a tribal backlash by those that consider “woke” a slur, and it’s being amplified by those who are genuinely overexposed to him.
Sounds like you seek out his content to be honest.
I think you have me confused with a different poster. (I just checked and I’ve seen him in The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent, Gladiator II and Mandalorian)
indeed you are correct. i swear lemmy has a off by one bug or something in comment replies lol. apologies for the noise.
Decade and a half? You mean half a decade?
Oops, no idea where that came from, unless the 1500 films bit confused my subconscious.
A decade is 10 years, he only really arrived on the scene 5 years ago, where’s the other 15 years coming from?
A decade is 10 years, he only really arrived on the scene 5 years ago, where’s the other 15 years coming from?
Your maths is as bad as mine - a decade and a half is 15 years, so I added 10 not 15.
It seems like he’s in a lot of things, because the things he appears in tend to be good, and he’s good in them.
I saw the same complaint about Rami Malek a while back, and his imdb profile is relatively sparse for a two-decade acting career.
I’ve heard the same said about John Malkovich, even though he’s hardly in anything really. But when he is in a movie it’s always good.
The average count of John Malkoviches per movie poster was quite high in the late 90s…
This is fine🔥🐶☕🔥Being John Malkovich is an outlier and should not have been counted.
The whole meta because he was in so many movies makes it required to be on the list, imo.
I loved him in that movie where he played a jewel thief.
Only 14 movies in the past 5 years? Only?! Do you understand how insanely high that number is? lol. Most big actors do like 1 a year.
Went back and looked again, it was actually 14 over 6 years, but 2 of those were short films, one was just a cameo, and one was a voice role. So it’s actually 10 movies over the last 6 years, or 1.7 movies per year, that has you so upset. And you’re clearly upset coming back to this thread 4 days after it died
And you’re clearly upset coming back to this thread 4 days after it died
lol what type of ridiculous logic is this? You think I’m upset because I…checks notes…replied to people that replied to my comment the next time I came to this website? Explain that one to me please.
the next time I came to this website?
This is easily proven to be a lie by looking at your comment history. You’ve really let Pedro Pascal get under your skin, huh
Go on, look at my comment history :). There was a single comment on a day where I didn’t post in this thread. I hadn’t replied to the dozen comments that replied to my posts because I had stuff in the real world take priority over Lemmy (hard to believe for you since you seem to think every poster in here dedicates their life to Lemmy lol)
How embarrassing, I can’t tell whether you’re lying to me or lying to yourself
I see you don’t know how calendars and dates work lol
You know you do that have to watch the stuff he’s in, right? If you’re sick of him then stop paying attention to him and letting him live in your head. And as for the anxiety thing, kind of a dick move to just assume someone’s a creep just because physical touch helps with their anxiety. As someone that had anxiety, I may not relate one-to-one but I definitely get it.
I don’t watch the things he’s in, so yeah, I know that. I’m answering the question that OP asked. You know, the whole point of this thread.
It’s strange how he only needs physical touch from attractive women co-stars, never the unattractive women or the men - that’s why it comes across as very creepy/predatory. You’re acting like there are no predatory people in the world using excuses like anxiety to abuse people.
LibertyLizardIn case anyone was wondering I did some web searches and this “groping” stuff is basically made up by anti-trans activists as far as I can tell. So I’m not sure if this person is one of them or just parroting their smear unknowingly, but they can be safely ignored.
Is there anything being “shoved down your throat”? Maybe some kind of “agenda” or specific groups of people?
OP have MWAM Syndrome, Must Watch All Movie so the appearance of Pedro Pascal in a lot of movie is a torturous experience. 1 out of 10 American suffer from this syndrome and it’s not a joke.
and it’s not a joke.
agreed, unfortunately the OP is.
also a vocal proponent of ideologies that the public overwhelmingly disagree with, and are openly hateful towards anyone who disagrees with them
This is news to me, what’s he been saying?
ZagorathNo news here, just the usual bigoted “I dislike a thing, so I assume everyone else quietly agrees with me and is too afraid to speak out against the woke mob” bullshit that racists, sexists, homophobes, and (in this case) transphobes have been using for decades.
Well yeah obviously but I wanted them to say that. Hoping for a confession here.
pedro has a trans family member and he advocates for trans rights. the OP is mistaking being pro trans rights with the more muddied waters around trans athletes in competitive sports. hilariously if they knew anything about m2f trans population and how biochemistry works they’d quickly realize the estrogen these individuals take rapidly normalizes them to their gender’s average in performance.
Your last sentence proves being any doubt that you have zero knowledge on the effects of testosterone, or biology for that matter.
Tell me - does oestrogen shrink trans women’s lungs? Does oestrogen physically shrink trans women height wise? Does it reduce their arm span?
Okay champ. Go talk to a medical professional. See what they tell you l.
So you think that a fully grown male who takes testosterone blockers and oestrogen will physically shrink in height, arm span, and their lungs will shrink? If you do, oh boy…the school system has failed you more than you will ever know.
Never said anything about a fully grown males taking estrogen. Thats your delusion. Anyways kindly fuxk off people have better things to do than deal with your nonsense.
Go take some intro anatomy and physiology classes if your interested in learning how the hormones work. They’ll cover it.
Oh so what you’re saying is that no, oestrogen doesn’t take away the physical advantages that a trans woman has over women?
Strange, cause you claimed the opposite 2 posts ago.
No im saying you have nfc what you’re talking about and i cant be bothered to explain it to you. Estrogen in adult males primarily effects muscle mass and bone density. Which is where my statement about female transgender recerting to the mean in performance. Whoch is a well researched and eocumented result. Its not something you can argue over the facts are the facts.
Now go pay someone to teach you about this if you care so much. Not worth my time.
So again - it doesn’t take away any of the inherent physical advantages that males have over women.
You’re admitting I’m right while telling me I need to go and learn about the thing you’re agreeing with me about lol
_cryptagion [he/him]some MAGA chud named “freedomadvocate” being a transphobe. how surprising.
