>You’re an alien from another planet because…you don’t care about politics in 2016
What the fuck is wrong with these writers?

Idk if it was ai because it’s so insane but I saw a clip from the upcoming jimmy olsen show and it was a gorilla attacking a young barack obama saying make america grodd again and like wtf is going on kek

HBO writers are shoving Obama down our throat

It's truly astonishing, they have to make up an entire decade where they were in charge, and everything was "good".
>>
>>222814928
Yeah. Why didn't he just blow up at the stadium and take out the men who were hunting for him while he hunted for the Manhunter, not to be confused with Martian Manhunter, who is a totally different alien.
>>
If you had watched it you would know the point of the scene is that it becomes clear the guy being interrogated doesn't know things everyone in america would know without having to think about it. He doesn't know about kelly clarkson or the boston tea party either.
>>
>>222815838
There are people in America that can’t even name presidents, shut the fuck up with your terrible shill points
>>
>>222816000
you got schooled, accept it and move on
>>
>>222816000
Watch. The. Scene. He can rattle off sports trivia about football. He can rattle off that Obama was 44th president, replacing W. He has never heard the name "Harry Potter"
>>
>>222816054
So he knows Obama is the sitting President but doesn’t actually care that strongly about him otherwise. Wow, what a smoking gun.

Perhaps. But I promise you any American that was alive and of voting age knows who Obama is and has an opinion about having a black president one way or another. And if you're of voting age or older then you sure as fuck know who Harry Potter is. It would be like not knowing what ai is in 2026. Even if you tried to avoid it you would still know what it is and hear about it every day.
>>
It's a fun idea for a scene, it was well acted, and I liked it when Men in Black did it.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xfZADMWAEvc
Maybe this show was supposed to be a gritty, 'grounded' version of MIB.
>>
>>222814822
You clearly didnt understand the scene

And it wasnt about politics

if you pay close attention, every time the alien answered, it looked as if he was reading off bullet points regarding football and politics within his mind

but when it came to pop culture, he knew nothing

Why didnt he know anything about Harry Potter? Because his occupation as a football coach declared him not the know these things
>>
>>222816214
but HP was huge among adolescents in the 2010s
>>
>>222816232
The aliens human disguise was to be knowledgeable in football, not pop culture

Everyone in America knows Harry Potter whether or not youve seen it
>>
>>222816281
would every middle aged man really know Hogwarts though, maybe most but not every 40 year old guy in nebraska

Also the reason why Hal mentioned Harry Potter is because its owned by WB

He couldve asked about Star Wars, but that ip is owned by a competing company Disney, so why give them a shout out

Theyre slowly building up to it

As you can see, the bg is yellow

Most likely sinestro will put on the yellow ring
>>
>>222817123
I have to agree. Green Lantern used to be "good vs. evil", Guardians vs. Qwardians, green vs. yellow. Simple enough. With the rainbow Lanterns it kinda feels like something out of the Care Bears. White the yellow lanterns represented an emotion (fear), the green lanterns did not (willpower is not an emotion). So you have the "emotional spectrum lanterns", with rage, lust, greed, hope, fear, compassion... and willpower. Unfortunately, Geoff Johns' run was incredibly popular, and this nonsense will never be undone or retconned out.
>>
>>222817339
I liked the Morrison run which didn't use any of the spectrum stuff.

Nothing. You need to actually watch the shows and movies you watch before you come bitching.

>>222816937
>"How should I know, that's kid stuff" would also be a valid answer.
Dude would have been a kid when Harry Potter was most popular.
>>
>>222817585
Yeah but they didn't let you read shit like that in Nebraska because it's against God.
>>
>>222817339
I think the coloured spectrum gave them more lore to work with. It was nice seeing Sinestro get his own army of ringslingers, it really scaled him up on the villain totem pole and raised stakes. Atrocitus and Larfleeze are decent villains. I do think Star Sapphires could've been explored better, as well as the blue lanterns.
>>
>>222817434
most comic writers are not as good as that troon though
>>
>>222815640
Almost works, too. I sometimes catch myself thinking back to Obama like "Oh, yeah, he was pretty alright, compared to what came after him." until I remember some of the stuff he actually did.

It’s still an answer that acknowledges some familiarity with the subject even if he didn’t get Hogwarts. Him being completely blank about it was a tell. When told it was a book he just rubs off that info and says he doesn’t read, when the name was plastered everywhere in ads for the movies.

If youre an American and in your mid to late 20s or older, theres no conceivable way you havent heard of Harry Potter outside of being Amish or some shit. Its like not knowing that Pikachu is a Pokemon.

Why the fuck is this retarded nigger kike faggot like this?
I've never seen Twilight, I know about what it is.
I've never seen 50 Shades, I think I get what it is.
There are ubiquitous cultural phenomena which it would be unheard of for someone to be unfamiliar with, barring the Amish (who, themselves, are ubiquitous in America). One can imagine someone not knowing about Harry Potter, there are always outliers, but to not know of Star Wars, Abraham Lincoln (piss be upon him), Spider-Man, the jewish genre of rap "music," Santa Claus, and Seinfeld all at the same time is beyond the pale for nearly everyone.

So you're the alien huh?

That's why it's a good question for actual human beings actually living on earth and actually interacting with the culture... You have to be raised in the middle of the woods and never seen society for the last 30 years not to know the Harry Potter went to hogwarts. It's something you pick up along the way, it's a cultural zeitgeist.

Like what's the opposite of autism? Foggy disconnected apathy? Is that you? Are you on heroin?
>>
>>222822048
See, you're demonstrating that you have knowledge of them through cultural osmosis and an opinion on that.
The alien did not have anything and that's the issue. No confusion over the line of questioning, just very flat.
If the alien started rattling off facts about Harry Potter too without any sense of personal experience one way or another with more investment than would be expected of a person like him, that would've also been a tell.

>>
>>222824334
In 2016 the last Harry Potter movie was 5 years prior, and there had been 8 years worth of commercials on top of any residual mentions in other ways you’d pick up.
It’s not remembering one solo commercial but a variety of things you’re picking up across years, as someone immersed in a culture. I haven’t watched a Fast and the Furious movie all the way through but I’m aware of the series. I know it’s a movie and not aTV show. I know Vin Diesel is attached to it.
