An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! 🇵🇭

Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

‘Oppenheimer’ sparks online outrage in India due to Hindu scripture scene

The scene features the protagonist reciting a verse from the Bhagwad Gita, considered the holiest of Hindu scripture, just before sexual intercourse.

Eh, this is kind of a reach. It's hard to tell what exactly happened when Florence Pugh was asking Oppie to read it.

I do think it's one of the dumbest scenes in the movie and why Nolan's directing is bothersome, lol. Pwede naman sabihin ni Oppie yung line na yun somewhere (a voice over after the bomb explodes) without Pugh showing it to him. Alam naman natin na he's well-read and historically uttered this phrase.
