Academy Award-winning composer Hans Zimmer just branched out into unchartered territory.
He gonna reuse the dune theme 😂
We got it wrong. We should make a “non-boycott” list of people who aren’t assholes yet. It would be way shorter, and we would remove people when they become so fucking stupid and arse-licking that they have the idea of reworking the national anthems of shitholes such as saudi arabia.
I remember when in 2018 there was an uproar against Trump using that language
President Donald Trump referred to Haiti and African nations as “shithole countries” during a meeting with a bipartisan group of senators
The U.N. human rights office said the comments, if confirmed, were “shocking and shameful” and “racist,”

I’m not surprised to see Lemmy embrace and adopt Trump’s language, so long as it’s aimed at countries y’all dislike, and so long as it fits y’all’s agenda
I have never been to KSA so I’ll refuse to take a position on the nation but Trump is hardly the originator of that phrase. He’s just the classless idiot who used it on mic. If you are actually fluent in English it would be really weird to think this is “Trump’s language”
Trump didn’t invent this expression. Also any country that still cut heads is a shithole. Have a nice day.
Don’t sweat it. I love Hans Zimmer but after what he did to my car, I can’t wait to hear the bizarre shits that will be the new anthem.
Zimmer was hired by BMW to make acceleration and engine noises for their “i” line of EVs. What they got was the sound of robots whining and having orgasms. I had to disable the sound on mine.
I love Hans Zimmer but after what he did to my car
I thought this comment was about to go in a very different direction
So, Costco and who else?
I would add Elton John and Tom Hanks, but if I look too deeply they may secretly be British Nazis working for the Queen to overthrow the American government…
It might be an unpopular opinion, but it doesn’t make him a monster. His reasoning for it is that he doesn’t want to cause more harm.
Locking people up isn’t right either but he is entitled to a point of view
I sincerely doubt that there is a way to determine which behaviours/beliefs are good or bad. I, for example, doubt that I will get a rating of “good” beyond 75% (educated guess).
Honestly, my standards for “good” behavior for corporations are astoundingly low; just don’t be bigoted, don’t actively wreck the planet, and don’t kill people.
And yet most of them can’t even manage that.
Sad to see a great composer who really doesn’t need the money, take money from a brutal suppressive dynasty to make something that will make said dynasty look good
Even Eminem went dick riding and sucking saudi dictatorship for money. Jennifer Lo went stripping in her mid 50s there, + so many othera as well. 99.99999% of Hollowyood celebs and influencers turn into cheap spinless hypocrite sellout money whores when offered a saudi check
He evidently does need the money, huh…
I would be down for a national anthem that sounded like a movie trailer. Opens with BWAAAAHMMMMM. Then another. Then narrator in a grisled and wise voice starts in, “We’re not a good country. We’ve done horrible things.” BWAAAAAHMMMMMM!
I wonder how he’s gonna include the part about slavery and misogyny
People from countries that just enabled a genocide being hypocritical about Saudi Arabia in the comments.
I really can’t wait for the West to stop being so dominant.
I’m pretty sure youre wrong to think people from the West on Lemmy support Israel. No one on here seems to 😅
Fuck, not hans zimmer man 😭 Why did he sell out to us
But on the other hand, our anthem sucks ass. We need a better one so i guess it isn’t all bad?
