    The supposed post in question, if someone wants to do their own translating.

    “I support Hong Kong’s Police
    You all can hit me”

    Not exactly sure how the second line is supposed to be taken, but it sounds like she’s welcoming reactions to this controversial opinion, sort of a “come at me bro”.

    So yeah, fuck you, gutter trash.

    Also her movie would be banned in China If she said anything but that.

    So brave taking a stand Disney lawyers reccomended

    I have a podcast now. It's about video games and anime!Find it here.

    Please let the sequel just be a docu-drama about the events of the first one.

    Wait... The original driver of the Jeep and her passenger are gone at the end of the commercial.

    He did steal it... And killed the owners!

    Update to this...

    I saw the commercial again. I don't know if I missed it or they added it but at the very end, he pulls up in the Jeep and the original driver and passenger are at his concert. So it looks like he let them ride on his tour bus while he drove their jeep there but then punished them by making them attend his concert.

    Shannon Lee has responded, in grand fashion, to Tarantino's bullshit defense of his use of Bruce Lee:
    "He could shut up about it. That would be really nice. Or he could apologize or he could say, ‘I don’t really know what Bruce Lee was like. I just wrote it for my movie. But that shouldn’t be taken as how he really was,'” Lee declared in an interview with Variety. "One of the things that’s troubling in his response is that, on the one hand, he wants to put this forward as fact and, on the other hand, he wants to stay in fiction."

    "[Tarantino] can portray Bruce Lee however he wanted to, and he did," Lee continued. "But it’s a little disingenuous for him to say, ‘Well this is how he was, but this is a fictional movie, so don’t worry too much about it.’"

    Additionally, the section of the biography of Bruce Lee that Tarantino cited as evidence for his portrayal is, in reality, Linda Lee recounting a second hand story of a film critic recounting audiences betting on who would win, Bruce Lee or Mohammed Ali, and not something attributed to Bruce Lee at all.

    So yeah, fuck you, gutter trash.

    I believe the "you can hit me" comment is referring to the Chinese police that were assaulted during the protests recently. It's a thing taking off on Chinese social media.

    https://www.npr.org/2019/08/14/751039100/china-state-media-present-distorted-version-of-hong-kong-protests
    But Beijing's biggest messaging victory so far was provided by Hong Kong protesters themselves on Tuesday night, when they descended on two men suspected of being mainland Chinese agents. Beijing made sure to widely disseminate videotape of the incident.

    By the next morning, a third of top trending topics on the popular blogging platform Weibo were expressions of support for one of the men, a reporter for the hard-line Chinese newspaper Global Times. Viral slogans like "What a Shame Hong Kong" and "I support Hong Kong police, beat me all you want" have been shared millions of time on Instagram and Weibo, with some Internet users threatening to travel to Hong Kong themselves to avenge the Global Times employee.

    "If you opened the Shenzhen port to Hong Kong now and waived the needed permit, I dare say that [these protesters] would have been beaten to a pulp," wrote one user.

    Given the ending I don't get why Tarantino feels the need for this bit to be historically correct. Tarantino kinda just sucks.

    Neil Blomkamp is no longer directing Robot Returns.

    So no leaning over to the adjacent person and whispering “that’s robocop”

    It could. It would be dumb and/or goosey to do so, IMO.
