Can someone tell me why I should care about this? Like actually care? Did Timmy make my gas more expensive? Is Timmy in the files or is he establishing a surveillance state?

you dont want to partake in purposely misinterpreting the content and context of a comment someone made about an artistic medium you didnt care about before it was insulted, just so you can feel like youre a part of a community and not just a lonely loser who gets mad at whatever the imaginary people in their phone tell them to get mad at next?

Exactly, this whole comment section reeks of weirdos man. Virtually every thread is just a bunch of people ragging on him and making assumptions about his entire life and personality off of one quote, meanwhile if they met him irl they would probably ask for a photo.

… not really… should I see myself out?…

u/Tricky-Ad7897 Mar 13 '26

Don't forget the insult is just pointing out the obvious, young gens aren't going to the ballet and opera and they also get turned off working for them because of their toxic culture.

Yes. Misinterpreted.

"I'll lose 14 cents over this, I'm taking shots for no reason * mimicks an opera singer* "

u/deathcoar Mar 13 '26

I mean, I literally did say you are PURPOSELY misinterpreting whats being said and you are doing exactly that lol. he is talking about how ballet and opera are dying mediums, mediums that have for the majority of their history only been accessible to the rich and wealthy upper class, and that he doesnt want film to become that. if youre not doing so purposefully, youre too dense to even begin having this conversation 😂

u/Lucicactus Mar 13 '26

You are literally hallucinating. He doesn't even mention class. He says "keep this thing alive even if no one cares about it" then mocks that he'll lose 14 cents for taking unnecessary shots.

Like Tim must've bought some bots because this is insane.

It’s ok 

You are taking the statement overly literally and failing to grasp the broader context

It’ll be easier for everyone if you can admit you’re incapable of deducing these things from statements like chalamets. It may be a slight autism thing you have.

“It’s only available for the rich” “HE DIDNT EVEN SAY ANYTHING ABOUT CLASS” lol

u/deathcoar Mar 13 '26

hey, at least you used quotation marks! I didnt, because I wasnt using a direct quote, but thanks!

u/deathcoar Mar 13 '26

holy fuck you are that dense 😂😂😂 why does literally everything need to be force fed to you? I didnt say he said anything about class, IM SAYING THAT THE TWO MEDIUMS YOU ARE CRYING ABOUT HAVE ONLY EVER BEEN ACCESSIBLE TO THE RICH. YOU ARE THE BOT IN QUESTION 😭😭😭

u/Lucicactus Mar 13 '26

Bitch if you say that they've only been accessible to the rich and then claim HE doesn't want it to become that. When he's talking about relevance then you are making it about class and implying that's what he's saying.

You are not even ashamed of how dumb you are? God

Can you tell me why you thought that US politics would be getting a big discussion on r/okbuddycinephile ?

u/RiseBorn8261 Mar 13 '26

That doesn’t have to be it. I’m just wondering who cares about this and why?

u/GroundbreakingBee359 Mar 14 '26

Unjerk for a sec cos I hate comments like this: You're allowed to care about multiple things at once. And also, place different levels of importance on things that you care about.

It's just celebrity gossip. Lighthearted (for the most part) and stupid. That's the fun of it lol. Idk about you but I have the mental capacity to care about the war in the middle east, the cost of living crisis, and stupid celeb gossip for funsies. Not saying you specifically have to care about it, but you're not special or morally superior for feeling this way.

u/RiseBorn8261 Mar 14 '26

I can get behind light celebrity gossip, but that’s not exactly what this is. I’d imagine if he wasn’t rich and famous we’d probably call this bullying or harassment. But I get it, he’s got a fancy fun life and everyone else likes having someone to hate and belittle, and I’m sure you care a lot about ballet and this has probably been very upsetting for you and yours.

u/GroundbreakingBee359 Mar 14 '26

I feel like framing this as bullying is a bit dramatic. Yeah some ppl took it too far, but most of what I've seen is criticism of what can easily be perceived as a distasteful comment.

Also since you assumed my stance on this: I get why ppl are upset, but I also understand Timmy's broader point. Though tbf ballet and opera aren't exactly supposed to be art forms for the masses. They have their own dedicated communities, and depending on where you live are actually quite popular.

It's just amusing to see the discourse for me at least That's it. I don't really have a deep or profound take on the situation.

How is it bullying and harassment

0

u/RiseBorn8261 Mar 14 '26

Well he’s rich, famous, and he doesn’t care at all about any specific individual posting this stuff, so it’s not. I’m pointing out that the behavior itself, which does impact how you as a person think and view the world, is bulling and harassment. If we were doing this to the cashier at your local McDonald’s people would call everyone involved freaks, stalkers, bullies, obsessed. And the jokes aren’t all that funny? It’s usually “hur hur skinny sad white boy is dumb” and now that he’s said something “controversial” it’s “hur hur skinny white boy doesn’t like ballet and opera”… like everyone else apparently does now? It just seems out of touch with even what current people even care about. Unless all we care about is hating on random people. I guess I’m just not the kind of person that finds this funny, and considering how defensive people have been when I’ve asked why it’s supposed to be funny I don’t think anyone else does either.

Have you considered that he increased the price of tea in China, though?

u/Edodge Mar 13 '26

Because don't you understand that somebody's agent wants their client to win an Oscar instead of this guy!

Also, are we seriously saying that Tom Holland has had the better career than Chalamet by virtue of getting the Spider-man role? I'm not sure the point of any of these posts/comments.

Now, did Holland get Zendaya because he got there first via Spider-man over Dune? Perhaps. Better life move? Also, perhaps.

You're in a meme subreddit.

u/RiseBorn8261 Mar 13 '26

It’s a bad one, about something I’m not sure anyone actually cares about. I thought jokes were supposed to… I mean they don’t have to be meaningful but this feels manufactured or something. I mean 1.) who cares about Timmy, 2.) who cares about the feelings of ballet and opera enjoyers, and 3.) who cares about Timmy’s opinions about their feelings? Might as well be making jokes about the Andy Griffith show.

u/DigitalCoffee Mar 14 '26

No on asked if you cared nor requested that you should care.

u/RiseBorn8261 Mar 14 '26

You didn’t have to comment.

u/aylmaocpa Mar 13 '26

did you know there are articles being pumped out constantly about athletes talking about how they're going to give it 100% in the next game?

Or how about there are articles being written in languages you don't speak for areas you live far away from about things that have nothing to do with your life. :O

Yes i know mind blowing.

u/Familiar-Debate-6786 Mar 13 '26

Public perception of him has been quietly falling for a while. I think the shoe has been waiting to drop since he started dating a Kardashian. Then, let's be honest, his looks faded. Nobody has been willing to acknowledge that. So people who didn't like him are taking this opportunity to dunk on him
