WhiteWings Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 All this coming up from someone who's primary measuring stick is: "go ask 50 random people outside". Desperately trying to find cooperative evidence using extremely weird methods doesn't repair your credibility. Should I search for "Alita" in a Spanish language search engine? Because that's gonna give me a lot of results! It must mean everyone is talking about it...! 🙄🙄🙄 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the major annoyances of IW/EG's success, is how these lines (such as what you quoted) now completely plagued the Internet, most times used in unfunny and uninteresting ways: "Dread it, run from it, Destiny Arrives Blah Blah Blah", and "in time you will know what it’s like to lose. To feel so desperately Blah Blah Blah" These things are so rampant, un-creative and I have to award them an eyeroll whenever I see them, which is hundreds of times per day.

That would’ve been interesting to see, but at the same time, it probably would’ve had a difficult time shaking off the Marvel comparisons. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps because we are busy reading about the upcoming Spider-man movie and Phase 4. We love a franchise that doesn't delay releases for over a decade to inflate their numbers with financial collapses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZeeSoh Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 (edited) Since we are on Justice League and I cant find its original thread, here is a go fund me for the Snyder Cut https://www.gofundme.com/ReleaseTheSnyderCut So their plan is to advertise it at the SDCC which involves - 2 hour airplane banner over SDCC - Billboard ad close to SDCC - Half Page ad in the THR’s special SDCC edition - Bus Stop Ad - Carrying ReleaseTheSnyderCut signs throughout the convention centre, possibly by cosplayers - Handing out swag and fliers about the Snyder cut and their cause Btw half of the donations goes to a suicide prevention charity.

Darth Lehnsherr Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 I would be interested in a Snyder Cut more than the JL we actually got. Still would have compeltely failed at the box office. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OdinSon2k14 Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 (edited) I was watching the "Ma" movie a couple days ago. I was set to anoint Octavia Spencer's Ma the new #1 villain of 2019 😂. I dunno, then the ending of the movie happened, and it was just...too bizarre, and a little on the heavy side. As you know, I like my villains a combination of psychosis, violence, megalomania, eccentric, and, you know, comedic 😂. Ma's motivation, was a little too much on the dark and heavy side. If they would have kept it like, she was an outcast out for revenge 😂...crappy job at the animal clinic, with the a-hole boss 😂... So, I'm gonna stick with Samuel L Jackson's Mr Glass at #1 😂...Thanos as runner-up, and we'll see what the rest of the year brings.

James Cameron nuts thinking the three people on this board and the seven people on r/movies are going to drive "Avatar 2" to $2834 billion is an even better measuring stick.

Have the gotten Warners OK for this?. And how much money would it cost to get the Snyder but in halfway presentable shape? I think a Snyder cut would end up being like the Donner cut of Superman 2:an interesting curiosity then a actual film. Npthong will come of this. Another effort of enthusiatic fans who probably don't really understand the realities of the way the film business works. I doubt Warners want to put another dime in JL.
