I remember watching The Hurt Locker (starring Jeremy Renner), the movie is meant to depict the Iraq War in 2004 but for some reason there’s a scene where an iPod Touch (releases in 2007), XBOX 360 (releases in 2005) and Gears of War (releases in 2006) present in the barracks even though these did not exist yet. Another anachronism from this movie is when a American soldier spots an Iraqi recording him ready on uploading the footage via YouTube (the website didn’t exist yet until 2005 when the story is set in 2004).

    Actors being outrageously attractive via artificial means is, meh, I suppose. What I can’t stand is when they load up with so much botox and had so many surgeries that they lose all capacity for acting. Like, you see an actor in a movie giving it all and communicating emotion effectively, and a year later turn into a statue. Completely unable to emote anything at all, face frozen, facial muscles neurologically dead.

      Vanessa Kirby in Fantastic Four was driving me crazy to the point that I could not enjoy the movie. Why the fuck did she do that to her face? And they kept zeroing in on her none moving face. It was like an uncanny valley.
