Not a sin to watch it tho. So you're clear if that's what worries you.Batfan175 wrote:I don't have any interest in watching it.AsianVersionOfET wrote:Oh dear...don't watch Dexter whatever you do.Batfan175 wrote:Light is an asshole who thinks he's god.

No but I hate media that suggests that violence is somehow a constructive and/or justifiable means to achieve socio-political goals.RIFA wrote:Not a sin to watch it tho. So you're clear if that's what worries you.
Also, I'm agnostic to answer your earlier question.
1. Why do you hate it? I mean why the word "hate" in the first place?Batfan175 wrote:No but I hate media that suggests that violence is somehow a constructive and/or justifiable means to achieve socio-political goals.
2. Why would a show that has that somehow needs to suggest that as well? Can't it just be a show made for entertainment?
3. If that's the case then can't you enjoy entertainment for what it is? Without applying your own socio-political beliefs and your own moral compass?

The film seems to at the least acknowledge that what Light is doing is evil
Of course just plainly spelling out Light as a character is no better than fetishizing Light as a psuedo edgy asshole
But Ill reserve judgment till I see the film

It did. It was pretty evident early on.
So apparently it's awful. Who would have guessed?
