Pleaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaase be Timothee, I'm begging you

I guess we might get a trailer this Wednesday that ties into this? But if you're a fan of both properties...well, I'm happy for you.

People get annoyed when I bring up NTCs, but nobody's proven to me otherwise that people want more than just the same shit they saw 10 years ago. Sad!

Praying my mom doesn't know this is a thing. She loves Amy Winehouse and all these music biopics, and I don't think I can deal with all this.

Lol why did this actually hit me in the feels tho?

Looking back, this may be one of the most important movies of the decade. It killed a whole franchise, arguably a whole genre, and caused The Rock's popularity to be a laughing stock and rework his entire brand and movie strategy. If this thing was a hit, he would not be doing an A24 movie. Nor WWE for that matter. This is like our modern-day Cleopatra.

Good thing I’m never having kids then. Get to go the movies any time I want and nobody can stop me. 👍🏻

This isn't the first time Flopped/La Binoche has done some pretentious BS as a way to troll Marvel and Disney fans. Don't worry, I already gave them warning points. Though there is still truth to the tweet IMO. People claim that they want originality, but they never show up, and are very much the least demanding they've ever been. I know people hate when I say NTCs, but like...I'm not wrong. That's all that people want to see, and it's gotten worse and worse over the decades. And that's not good for anybody!

Anecdotal, but Civil War has been brought up by some of my coworkers a couple times over the last couple weeks, including from people who don't seem all movie-centric. I'm still in my "only NTCs can find success" mood, but this has been the one April movie that felt the most like a breakout, in regards timing and reception and content and execution.

Praying we get a 20th anniversary re-release for The Spongebob Movie. Like I'm not even joking, I would be there on the first fucking day! 🙏

Moderation I said not the politics thread. Stay on topic, or you will be thread banned.

It’s like early Deadline numbers. It’ll go up.

The obvious play was having Moana 2 on that date so it could run away from Wicked and get all the PLFs to itself. But Disney is very stupid and stubborn and loves to stick with the same release dates, even when it obviously makes more sense to move. But hey, if Disney wants to self-sabotage their movies, so be it. 🤷

Good point!

Civil War is the only one I can see being a breakout. A lot is riding on it. Otherwise, I’ll have to rant about n*stalgic t*y c*mmercials again. I’m out here looking like this rn.

Update Warmaster506 - Suspended for one month for consistent bigotry

Moderation I probably should have done this sooner, but we don't need this "right vs. left" or "both sides" stuff anymore. It's more appropriate for the politics thread, so might as well migrate that kind of conversation over there.

Moderation @Warmaster506 has been threadbanned for 24 hours for trolling. Again, anybody else who does similar actions will be threadbanned as well. Don't like it? Go somewhere else. Thank you.
