Eric the Clown

That got pushed to December 3 in Australia. Don't get your hopes up

I didn't ban you and Cruel Summer for having a conversation. Rather, your conversation strayed beyond off-topic and had nothing to do with the movie, was going nowhere, and when the two of you began to start things up again, with Cruel Summer insulting you for not using MultiQuotes, and you were doing a beyond unfunny transphobic joke, I knew that things were going to start up again and things would get ugly fast, so I had to threadban you both. I'll admit that I was wrong for saying you went against Cap's instruction in hindsight, but even so, your tangent on Billie Eilish being untalented, also spurred by you saying that liking Birds of Prey is a "lame opinion" and that the idea that the film's fans shouldn't vote in political leaders...yeah, this is all really disrespectful stuff that I and the staff are not okay with. I understand your frustrations, but we do have rules here. As for your last point...I'm fine with the site being quiet. One of the biggest issues BOT has faced in the last couple years is the massive influx of fanboys who just want to brag about their corporate franchise and troll others. Especially after The Last Jedi became a hot topic, trolls and fanboys were becoming more and more insufferable and making the forums a chore to read. Everything turned into a battle, as people either couldn't handle criticism over the movies they love or couldn't get enough of dumping over movies they hated. And as a result, a lot of veteran posters left and never came back. If I and the staff didn't get more strict, and let people continue to roam free with pointless conversations, mean-spirited language, and endless bickering over "grr critics bad" or "grr Marvel bad", then there would be an even bigger collapse in the next few years. So yeah, I'd much prefer a forum that's smaller, but full of people who are respectful and want to talk in general about movies, box office, and financials, rather than a big forum full of people who just want to be toxic and start fires.

Serious question: whatever happened to Lea Michele? Feels like after Scream Queens she just vanished completely from the face of the earth?

Problematic GaysTM

Cool. Expectations change. And looking at the reviews, strong marketing muscle, and initial strong sales, my expectations changed. Maybe Delta isn’t the problem, but the collapse is still pretty weird IMO

So I thought you were making a Pumpkin Hill joke or something, but I just learned right now that Idris Elba's a DJ? And a musician? AND NOBODY TOLD ME????????????

Nah, that shit's going dual release and Chapek will do anything to Papa Feige to make this happen. I know people don't like me saying this, but even ScarJo isn't persuading me otherwise. And if you don't like me saying all this, just know you're free to ignore me.

So...are we now allowed to say Delta's finally impacting stuff? Free Guy's collapse from everybody here is inexplicable and I'm getting a lot of "my fall plans/The Delta Variant" memes on my timeline today.

😠 TIMOTHEE CAN DO AN-Y-THING!
