  1. Dune is remembered pretty well, so was Encanto, Luca, and Godzilla vs Kong. I'm pretty sure The Batman and EEAO will be remembered more than most movies releasing this year even with a shorter than usual theatrical window. It literally doesn't matter as long as people think the movie is good.
  2. Lost a nearby indie theater and it's loss feels massive. Crimes of the Future would be playing here (3 blocks away from where I live) for over a month but right now the nearest theater still showing it is almost 10 miles away and it's the biggest cinema here in the Bay area. At least I get to watch Benediction this weekend I guess.
  3. Difference is that people are more aware of the Disney brand. Soul, Raya and Turning Red going to streaming (and most people catching Encanto on streaming) means that people will think that the next WDAS/Pixar film be on streaming. Dune going to streaming doesn't mean that they will think The Batman is going straight to streaming. Most people won't even be aware the same studio distrubuted both.
  4. Surprised that this went below 90% on RT verified. Feel like that's bad for a kids movie.
  5. When was the last time this was done with a pedophile? I don't think it's even remotely possible post-metoo. What can be even done other than Miller denying he hasn't tried to do weird shit with minors. This isn't a Tom Cruise or RDJ situation (which took their images years to recover). And allegations from a child and the parents of another kid aren't rumors.
  6. What if I'm looking at something short term (high risk, high reward kind of thing)? Just wanna see what kinda returns I get on those funds from investing small amounts. Tried looking through r/wallstreetbets for tips on that but those guys all speak in another language or something. Did see some of them mention some ETFs like UVXY.
  7. Like I said before, it's just money I'm being paid from a summer internship. Probably gonna finish with 10k after tax. Most of it is going to end up being unused anyways (since I'm still financially dependent on my parents) so I'm just looking to invest some of my money for fun and experiment and try to learn something about investing before I start getting serious about it when I do get a proper job and become financially independent in a few years. Most of my friends are investing in S&P 500 but idk if that's a good idea with the recession and everything.
  8. It's a summer internship and I won't be getting any income for another year after this. Was thinking of investing once I finish my internship just cuz I don't really have much else to do with it atm and I don't have much to spend it on.
  9. Anyone here familiar with investing? Got my first job this month and my payday is coming soon and hoping to invest some of my money. No clue where and when to start, espescially with this recession talk. Tried looking on the internet and I just got more confused. So would be great if anyone got any tips or advice on what to do.
  10. There was nothing wooden about JDW's performance in Tenet.
  11. Even if the movie gets dumped to streaming, it still exists with Ezra lol. Like what difference is it going to make morally or publicity-wise if it goes to streaming? It's going to make a massive difference financially tho. If this movie is half decent, it will most likely make a profit from a theatrical release, with or without Ezra. The best decision morally right decision here is to either to cancel the movie and throw it into the WB vault for no one to ever see, or spend more money to reshoot Ezra (which would still be a more profitable decision than dumping it on streaming).
  12. Financially speaking, the movie is more likely to make a profit by spending another $100 mil to recast and reshoot all of Miller's scenes than by sending it straight to streaming (which would also have long term effects for the franchise).
  13. Would not be surprised if most people catching the last couple WDAS and Pixar films on D+ has pretty much caused most people to just end up watching every one of these upcoming films on D+.
  14. Ummm, months before Eternals came out, there were reports of Feige being blown away by it and it being a potential Oscar contender lol. No one knew it would be bad until like the week of social media embargo lifting. There weren't really reports of Doctor Strange being mid months before too.
  15. Rewatched the final scene in Godzilla 2014 and everyone cheering for Godzilla is a better moment than anything that comes after it in this franchise.
  16. Pretty sure they shot a full-fledged musical number imitating Diamonds are a girl's best friend for it, which ended up butchered in the final cut.
  17. Kinda annoyed that WB practically cut out the musical bits from Birds of Prey after this announcement lol.
