The actress was given extra computer-generated clothes in one scene in order to secure a release without cuts being made.

Configure your instance correctly. Time stamps are wrong.

[–] realcaseyrollins@kbin.projectsegfau.lt 16 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Not my instance but thanks for the heads up

@Midou @arya apparently the timestamps are off here

Our VMs are properly synced, it's a known kbin bug but i haven't seen if they solved it already. Once they do fix it i'll update it.

[–] freamon@endlesstalk.org 1 points 2 years ago

It doesn't happen with posts from kbin.social, which suggests it's a fixable issue at Project Segfault.

I know it's a bigger problem that needs to be addressed at KBIN & Lemmy codebase level, but - until it's resolved there - maybe there are solutions within this thread that could be implemented at your end.

I mentioned this to yesterday (on the Prime V post).

Your timestamps being off isn't some minor thing. It's breaking the Lemmy user experience. It's common to sort by New, meaning that your posts (which Lemmy thinks come from the future) linger at the top of everyone's feeds for at least 2 hours, ahead of posts submitted after them.

For example, this post, which you made at 17:20 GMT is above a post made at 18:20 GMT (and it will stay above posts made until 19:20 GMT.

Here a screenshot to demonstrate

I can see you've @'d your admins, but until they get around to doing something, please can you instead post from kbin.social or a Lemmy community?

Studios agreeing to censorship of any kind is disgusting, whether it be for political reasons (like what China usually demands) or for religious reasons (because some countries still live in the 500 BC).

[–] jordanlund@lemmy.one 14 points 2 years ago

I mean, if the choice comes down to a digital cover vs. not releasing the movie? Fine. Think of it as an early release of the TV version.

[–] eric5949@lemmy.cloudaf.site 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

That scene was so out of place anyways, actually the worst part of the movie.

[–] AnusBesamus@feddit.de 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Why? It is a biopic and his relationships (at least Florence and Emily) were relevant for his story.

[–] eric5949@lemmy.cloudaf.site 10 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children)

Because they chose a sex scene for "now I am become death, the destroyer of worlds," not anything relevant to why the quote was made.

[–] AnusBesamus@feddit.de 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

This was not THE "now I am become death" scene, the Trinity scene was it. In this scene we see him and Florences relationship sparking and we learn that he did not invent the quote, he got it from the Bhagavad Gita: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Am_Become_Death_(disambiguation)

[–] eric5949@lemmy.cloudaf.site -1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Did we watch the same movie? Because my complaint, my only complaint, is that the sex scene was where they used the quote in the movie, NOT the trinity scene.

[–] AnusBesamus@feddit.de 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

He used the quote in the trinity scene. Directly after the bomb exploded. Maybe we did see different cuts 😅.

[–] eric5949@lemmy.cloudaf.site 2 points 2 years ago

Damn maybe i was just blinded by the explosion lol, I could have sworn he didn't.

[–] handhookcardoor@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Saw a short video on this scene and I was certain it was a joke. Why would they choose to do that scene? That’s hilarious, but would absolutely take me out of the movie lmao.

[–] eric5949@lemmy.cloudaf.site 1 points 2 years ago

I'm guessing Little Joel's video? Yeah no it's pretty much exactly like he says it is.

[–] vd1n@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 years ago (3 children)

It's a shame the didn't just remove the nipples.

[–] bernieecclestoned@sh.itjust.works 20 points 2 years ago (1 children)
[–] vd1n@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I like it. Hide the nips in plain site.

[–] Hubi@feddit.de 11 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Just replace them digitally with the nipples of a male actor.

[–] brsrklf@compuverse.uk 4 points 2 years ago

Of course, we just need to get rid of those pesky female-presenting nipples, after all.

[–] Ginjutsu@lemmy.world 12 points 2 years ago

Friendly reminder to release the Cats butthole cut.

[–] brsrklf@compuverse.uk 1 points 2 years ago

Unfortunately they only had Cats CGI experts, best they could do was removing assholes and make hands furry.
