Now you're getting it. We should probably start writing this treatment before some Disney executive reads this and steals our idea.

I dread the day when I have to take my kids to Toy Story 10 and it's reconstructed AI voices of Tom Hanks and Tim Allen as the voice actors. Nostalgia is evil.

Instead of a bomb on a bus, it's a bomb on a car. An Uber car. And you have like...5 Ubers with bombs on them. One car explodes, and then Keanu and Sandra have to save the other Uber drivers before it's too late, using the app to track down their locations and stuff. It's basically a Fast and Furious movie now, but who cares?

Said my point better than I ever could lol. And yeah. I can already see it now. The year is 2065. There's only 1,000 theaters left in America. Half of the country is now underwater, in part because of President Elon Musk's failed policies 20 years earlier. That summer, Jurassic Galaxy: The Squeakquel and Fast and Furious 35, starring deepfake AI versions of Chris Pratt and Vin Diesel respectively, are duking it out at the box office. Whoever wins, we lose.

Pitch Perfect 2. Got an extra 4 million more its opening weekend than the first film's original gross. Now that's a movie that really caught on like crazy after its theatrical release. I was 14 years old when the first movie came out, and I was in both the school choir and the school a cappella group, so my demographic and I were kind of ahead of the curve before everybody else.

They're just gonna keep on making new Star Wars, Jurassic Parks, Toy Stories, Harry Potters, and so on from now until the end of time. Kids do in fact watch these reboots like the adults do, and there are probably teens and young adults that are starting to feel nostalgic for the reboots they saw 10 years ago.

Well I hope you aren't paying attention to what is releasing on December 20, 2024. Or just...any time in the last ten years lmao

Are we? Are we really, genuinely curious?

Back to the Future 4 sounds even worse. I mean all of these sequel ideas are terrible, but Michael J. Fox deserves his peace and quiet instead of being given some thankless "passing the torch" role.

No gracias.

Apparently both Will Ferrell and Jon Favreau did not get along with one another, which is why a sequel never got made. That's a little surprising. You can say what you will about Favreau's movies or whatever, but he seems like a cool, chill dude. I'm assuming Ferrell's a cool, chill dude, since I never heard anything bad about him.

Actually, last I checked, Henry Selick stated that he wants to do a sequel, but Burton's the one who is against it, and has basically vetoed any chance for that to ever happen. Though granted I think the big difference is that Henry probably wants that nostalgia money and Tim's too rich for that crap.

Well picture this...how about...we remake it...in live-action...but Jack...is...well...I think you know who I want to be cast.

I thought Burton's stuff was mainly a guy/gender-neutral thing, but I was schooled recently that Burton's big with the ladies. Which in hindsight makes sense. Pretty much all my friends who have Nightmare Before Christmas as their whole personality are women.

Apparently Titanic is a cult classic. People will throw that term around for anything.

Hot Topic shareholders.

The September OW record is what?

Yes. In my opinion at least.

*whispers* 100M still seems like a super good opening for Beetlejuice imo and I don’t get the disappointment.

Do respect the marketing team going all "Oh, y'all don't like rap music? Well TOO BAD". Let all those weirdos and nerds suffer.
