C’MON BARBIE LET'S GO PARTY...AT LOS ALAMOS | BARBENHEIMER WEEKEND THREAD | We’re Thriving in our Plastic Fantastic Era | Mother Mothered with 162M | Daddy Exploded with 82.4M

[vale9001]

I really hope OPP can make more than 843M so no super heroes movies in the yearly global top 3*

 

A dream.

It would be historical also because no action flicks in the top 3.

 

*If acquaman 2 doesn't came in december

You know things are serious when you have Oppenheimer-driven opinion articles in newspapers from nuclear missile operators.

https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2023/jul/24/nuclear-war-oppenheimer-serious

 

And not to mention the half a dozen articles about the entire Barbenheimer phenom, how cinema is back (even if temporarily), the Barbie collectors and their thoughts on the movie, etc. This is the kind of thing that creates a pop culture snowball rolling into an avalanche. If they both hold well for the weekend, then that will only further feed the hype and at that point I'll be buying into Barbie>Mario.

You know who else was going to be the lead of a WB film and also named Barbara?

 

The fact that this was considered unwatchable while The Flash was hyped as one of the greatest CBMs ever... Barbie being a bit hit doesn't mean I've stopped questioning just how incompetent the folks at WB are.

Wym? Mario is both an action and super hero movie.

My take is that I honestly couldn't care less. I view the Jurassic World movies as the most innocuous uber-blockbusters out there. They truly leave no cultural mark behind them. Dinosaurs will forever fascinate us, but the JW movies are just...there. They're not mind-blowing like the first JP. There's nothing as head-scratching in them as the JP3 Alan terribleness. I'll take Disney live-action remakes to hate-watch over the JW movies.

Clooney crashing through the skylight and saying "Hi Freeze, I'm Batman!" never fails to make me howl with laughter.

Since we’re in the land of hot takes rn

 

The Dark World is the best Thor movie

 

[Deep Wang]

In '99 my gf and I were 20 and leading up to TPM's release she was obsessed with Jar Jar because she thought he was the cutest thing ever. 

 

I bought her so much Jar Jar shit.  Those Taco Bell cups with the character toppers?  YES!  Whatever I saw that had Jar Jar's face on it, I bought it for her.  Talking toys, plush toys, posters, literally everything I could find anywhere.  Basically, I was the bf of the year because I satisfied her Jar Jar thirst.  

 

We broke up a few years later and I still look back and laugh wondering how long she kept all that shit and how/when she finally threw it all away.

Babylon is the best movie of the decade

[ringedmortality]

I can get this this to 200 by saying one thing. The same people who think Barbie is a masterpiece are the same ones that said Marriage Story, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, and Irishman were all sexist.

[Killimano3]

I definitely appreciate the prequels more now that the sequels were made. They may have had some bad acting, writing, and loads of other mistakes, but man were they memorable. They had actual highs that are iconic. George Lucas at least TRIED there. Those movies are filled with tons of things that expand upon the lore, the characters, the worlds. The Sequels are just empty retread. It's just Adam Driver alone on an island in a sea of forgettable mediocrity.

[Hatebox]

My hot take is that prequels are still bad and I don’t care if it’s now cool to like them because of meme culture or the fact that they came out when you were young.
