The core of the show really is the relationship between these two…. They desperately need each other. They couldn’t go on without the other. - JJ Abrams (x)

THIS SCENE WAS LITERALLY THE TEXTBOOK DEFINITION 

#you know it’s bad when you’re less progressive than a show from the 60’s

The hashtag by theblueboxonbakerstreet: NAILED IT.

The fact that everyone is drawing attention to it is what’s making it gratuitous. Tumblr people take every single instance that’s even remotely “socially unjust” and completely warps it into something it’s not. 

That and, it’s very clear, that all the people who complain about instances like this obviously don’t know how to cinematic business works. They assume that every single decision going into the movie is in the director’s hands, when ultimately, it’s the production company that has the final say what has to be in the movie. The movie industry is exactly that: an industry. Production company corporate heads are no different than ones to say, an oil company. They want money. They see what will generate the most viewers for a movie (such as sexual promiscuity) and demand it in a movie. The movie industry is an industry. Don’t blame a director for having a corporate hag breathing down their neck threatening to pull the plug at any moment.

Remember two weeks ago when Benedict Cumberbatch said that a shirtless scene with him in it was cut, and everyone bitched because they wanted to see it? How in any way shape or form is this any different? People got genuinely MAD that they couldn’t see Benedict Cumberbatch shirtless, and yet everyone is up in arms because Alice Eve got to be? If women truly are supposed to be equal to men, then there shouldn’t be any discrepancy between who’s allowed to be shirtless and who’s not.

Also, Alice Eve commented in an interview saying that she was excited to show off her body in the film. She said that she worked extremely hard for it, and was pleased to have people be able to see it.

Stop turning minuscule details that don’t even serve the main point of a project into things that they are not. By focusing on the seemingly “socially unjust” aspects of a picture, it proves that you are not grasping the true point of the film, and are in fact creating sexism and racism and any other isms by applying them to situations where they are truly not present.

Also, can we talk about how many costume changes Bones had? It’s like every other hour he went to his quarters and thought to himself, “WHAT FABULOUS DAMN FROCK AM I GONNA WEAR NOW? JIM SAYS THIS ONE BRINGS OUT MY EYES, BUT JIM’S A MORON.”

He has a tender place in my heart. Karl is the best looking geek on the planet.
He is such a geek. And I mean that in the most loving way."
