The Big Bang Theory (2007–2019)
7/10
Gags and jokes in the sauce of demasculinisation
29 May 2024
1. About 50% of the jokes are at 3/5

2. Interesting topic - not many TV shows about geeks, nerds and brainiacs

3. Humour encompasses both dialogues and gags, whereas a significant proportion of series limit themselves to a definite dominance of only one of the above types per title

4. Too much going for broke and trying to make you laugh for the 30th time with the same predictable joke

5. Too much (also predictable in contemporary shows) cultural demasculinisation - men are the main object of jokes, they are physically and mentally weak, etc.

6. a shortage of humorous situations showing the vices of female characters (emotionality, gossiping, tendency to lie, unwillingness to take responsibility for their actions); however, this is a 'shortage', not a 'lack', for which credit is due.

false anarchy
7 October 2021
'Anarchy' (from greek) means 'no rulers', not 'kill innocents'. Members of The Apostles organization are as good anarchist as politicians are good in putting the interest of citizens before their own.

improbability + violence

Shallowness + unnecessary gore and violence + aliens, when being capable of space travel, are having medieval 'medicine' and conditions on their space ship.

To imprison animals in zoos

Quite original location of the story, few funny moments, one or two interesting characters, unfortunately they hunt animals to later imprison them in zoos.

An obscene self-sacrifice
4 November 2020
An obscene promotion of self-sacrificing for the sake of others.... as befits "The Christams Carol".

mysticism and evil deeds

Mysticism; praise for helplessness; murdering people in the name of words written out by politicians on paper and in the face of corrupt state courts;

funny ... but the punch line ...
28 September 2020
Funny; the promotion of the pursuit of a goal; it stigmatises the inevitable - the absolute lust for power of politicians; unfortunately, in the end, the heroes become mercenaries of the system;

laurel for an undisputed fascination
25 September 2020
Blind, devoid of both charm and memorable figures, a laurel for an undisputed fascination with the state in which one lives.

Wrong conclusion
13 August 2020
Contrary to the final conclusion of the film: Technology is a tool of exhibitionism and spying ... as well as privacy. Without privacy, there is no freedom, whether it be from stalkers, thieves or dictators.

you can't speak up for either side
23 July 2020
The conflict between the head of an institution holding people by the face with mysticism and the head of an institution holding people by the face with a sword ... How can you like a film when you can't speak up for either side?

injustice
15 June 2020
Warning: Spoilers
If it wasn't for bringing help to the station, Mr. Regret would have been hanged for participating in an honorable duel. The film doesn't criticize that. The Europeans invaded the Comanches, and yet the film still stands against the Comanches.

The glorification of nihilism.
8 February 2020
The glorification of nihilism. Revenge for the sake of revenge. Destruction for the sake of destruction. Lack of any constructive message. Pictures - technically good.
