Huh, 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.

Decade and a half? You mean half a decade?

[–] Deebster 2 points 1 day ago

Oops, no idea where that came from, unless the 1500 films bit confused my subconscious.

Sounds like you seek out his content to be honest.

[–] Deebster 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

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)

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.
