  1. I don’t know if it’s just that I am like so stressed right now because of what’s going on in real life, but this made me laugh soooooooooo hard. Thank you. I needed that. I have not read any of that stuff, but I will do so now. Not right now, after the hell of this movie is over with. 😉
  2. Since we’re celebrating Festivus early, instead of Steve Rogers birthday weekend, here’s my airing of grievances against Star Wars. This is a one time occurrence: - The sidelining Finn and Poe as the trilogy went on was a mistake, and for me, squanders much of the joy and excitement of The Force Awakens in hindsight. - The Last Jedi is not the nadir of human civilization, though I do believe the decision to split up the group was a mistake. I know that’s how ESB works, but this time was a mistake. I am genuinely pro The Last Jedi though. - I have never seen such a toxic fandom, and that is from someone who has been in the Marvel Comics fandom for 20 years. It morphed into less about the movie, and more being about hatedom. And even if people will not admit it, some folks absolutely showed their true colors during the debacle. - There’s a saying that even a broken clock is right twice a day. While I have always felt a lot of the hate Kennedy got was based in either conscious or subconscious sexism, I do think it’s time for her to get her golden parachute and ride off into the sunset. She is a pioneer Producer, with a legacy that is iconic. But clearly the current LucasFilm status quo is not working. Time to shake things up. Which leads to my last point: - We need to let the past die. No more Skywalker stories. No more deep fake bad CGI because you have PTSD over recasting young Han. Let it all go. The best stuff they’re doing is centered on new characters (Aka Andor). And with that, I’m gonna go back to trying to get my collectibles into my house without them getting ruined in the rain. Be good to each other. And it looks like we got some new juicy Indiana Jones gossip (lmfao if that is true, and for that alone, Kennedy needs to go), so hopefully we got all the TLJ out of our system and can naturally pivot (until there’s another lol and new information and we obviously go back to our favorite topic which is that movie 🤦‍♀️🤣)
  3. I know. I am moving my action figures and their boxes, art work, and collectibles into my new place. And it’s pouring out.
  4. Admin Post: Mornin’ All. Please disregard @Eric Jones previous moderation posts. As long as everyone is behaving, and not calling each other names, please proceed however, you see fit. If you don’t wanna have this conversation again, I suggest putting the people on mute, or just scrolling by.
  5. Guys, Nazis are bad. Fascism is bad. Anti-Woke/Woke has just become a dog whistle to certain fascist and Nazi groups. Please let’s not have 10 pages about this topic.
  6. @AMC Theaters Enjoyer The OG twitter user is BackupHangman and he is EXCELLENT for wrestling takes. Highly suggest following.
  7. Trying to figure out how to adopt die hard as a queer icon now 😂😂😂 And yes to the rest!
  8. My friends in IRL were talking about the list today cause I mentioned it. All three of us are queer. We were talking about how a lot of the “iconic” queer/gay movies aren’t implicit, but have been adopted by the community for one reason or another. So it can be a blurry line, I feel at times. As someone who has run several lists, I tend to say let everything in. And let the chips fall where they lay.
  9. It doesn’t matter if you think it is overrated, cause it’s a community list! Also the rainbow flag is literally a reference to the Wizard of Oz!! So yay! Gonna include it!
  10. petition to include - whatever happened to baby jane - mommy dearest - wizard of oz - some like it hot - the haunting - pink flamingos (any John waters film) - Cabaret - interview with the vampire
  11. FTFY. and because I know to stay on topic, here are some quick eyeballs for my theaters ticket sales for Thursday previews. Obviously, I don’t have any comps because most all my comps are super old. MI7: Mon - 24 Tues - 15 We’d - 4 Thurs - 4 Fri - 4 Sat - 9 Sun - 6 Indy: Thursday Previews: 31 IMAX; 23 Non-PDF Bomb: Thursday Previews: 73 IMAX; 1 Non-PDF Barbie: Thursday Previews: 0 IMAX; 1 Non-PDF
  12. I think I am on the minority, but I kind of love it. Looks terrible while working thematically within the series. That said, they are getting massive blowback for it (again, makes sense. AI art is garbage). So we will see if this was just a one off or the beginning of the end. Have yet to watch cause my days just don’t stop anymore. An hour to myself!? What is that.
  13. it seems like most of the deal was agreed to before the strike. So they are announcing it to break solidarity, and his AHS has been filming the whole time. So… we aren’t quite scabbing, but we scabbing you know 🤷‍♀️
  14. Nah, they announced this deal during the writers strike while he hasn’t done a damn thing. He could never get Steve Rogers. (unless he he gives us bisexual Steve and than I will forgive all) I honestly cannot wait to fly cost country, first class, and then spend five days sleeping in my hotel room. (Actually I’m not really joking. I’ve had a very very exhausting 2023. I might just drink by the pool for five days. That kind of sounds amazing.)
  15. Maybe it’s time to move on from that debate. Or, more accurately, take it to the Disney Thread or the Politics Thread —- LMFAO. I was about to say it’s off-topic, because there isn’t a Disney release this weekend 😂😂😂. Oops. NeverMind there. Anyway; bottom line. Let’s move on.
  16. Moderation: God Morning from Your Basic Twitter Mods: Gonna pause the ZSJL discussion before we start; since it always ends the same way. We are close enough to 100 pages that we don’t need to pad the thread with going round and round about that.
