2022 has been a miracle year for me when it comes to movies

[feral kettle]

woah fabelmans trailer

[modern lichen]

Absolutely incredible

[feral kettle]

ngl i stopped watching trailers cuz its so nice seeing them in theaters

[modern lichen]

Based on Spielberg's childhood too

[feral kettle]

Seems like its him just showing his love for cinema

i respect ot

[modern lichen]

Janusz Kaminski is producing the greatest work of his career lately just in terms of technical innovation

West Side Story looked absolutely gorgeous

And now this

Amazing stuff

[feral kettle]

West side story looked beautiful

[burnt lake]

Poop dealer check your pings in #manga

[modern lichen]

He always had a great style but this shit looks incredible

[burnt lake]

Nvm you got it

[feral kettle]

[outer tulip]

oscar season fastly approaching

[modern lichen]

Fuck the Oscars

[feral kettle]

lol yup

[modern lichen]

They don't even celebrate movies and technicians

It's an exercise of vanity and hubris

[cunning spruce]

I agree

[feral kettle]

i cant help to pay attention to it because it unfortunately affects filmmakers

Banshees of insherin🔥

[outer tulip]

yeah and actors/actresses

[modern lichen]

Can't even give two shits about the Oscars

[cunning spruce]

Plus their annoying bias towards Disney

[feral kettle]

lol

[modern lichen]

McDonagh is a genius of pitch black comedy

Have you seen In Bruges

[feral kettle]

In bruges soon

nah

tomorrow maybe

[modern lichen]

Incredible movie

[outer tulip]

they dont really like disney though

[feral kettle]

wow same

[modern lichen]

Yeah I agree

[cunning spruce]

Ah

[feral kettle]

DECISION TO LEAVE🔥

[modern lichen]

Great movie

Park Chan Wook is the master of quirky

[cunning spruce]

Who is that

[modern lichen]

Acclaimed Korean director

[feral kettle]

Director of oldboy

[modern lichen]

Made movies like Oldboy

[cunning spruce]

Ohh

[modern lichen]

The Handmaiden

[cunning spruce]

I have not watched Oldboy yet

[modern lichen]

Definitely watch it

It's one of the best ever made

[cunning spruce]

Will dooo!

Apparently he was a part of the production of Snowpiercer

[sage sleet]

wally is more known to be the goofy flash

TRUE!

[outer tulip]

ROP latest || “From the shadows you came.. to the shadows you return” !! WE LOVE YOU GANDALF! ❤️ ||

ha

[modern lichen]

I concede

But also

ROP finale || that still may not be Gandalf ||

ROP finale || he doesn't appear until the third age ||

[outer tulip]

Rop finale || yeah that one is def up in the air ||

[modern lichen]

ROP finale || perhaps Halbrand/Sauron eventually gets the name Annatar ||

[outer tulip]

Rop finale || I’m still not sure who annatar is… when I googled that name and rings of power they kept showing the white cloak women in the beginning of the episode ||

[modern lichen]

ROP finale || Annatar means "lord of gifts", which is the name he adopts when he befriends Celebimbor ||

ROP finale || sauron is annatar, its a name he adopts for himself when he first intends to create the rings ||

[outer tulip]

Ah gotcha.. RoP || then yeah I suppose he will adopt the name later on ||

[unique cosmos]

Oh boy there’s a new Old Man Reads Creepypastas

I need creepy pastas to be read to me in order to appreciate them

Y’know, there are so many creepy pastas involving kids shows and “unreleased episodes” that are absurdly dark

Like way beyond “a very special episode” type stuff

It’s just dark for the sake of being dark.

I wonder if there’s a creepypasta about an unreleased episode that’s actually effective at spooking you

[feral kettle]

LOL

[barren temple]

The yt comments on the new velma trailer are hilarious

[cyan cave]

was Part 2 any good?

[modern lichen]

rewatched the rings of power finale

very good episode

[sage sleet]

never see anyone talk about it

wonder if it airing same time as hotd has anything to do with that

[modern lichen]

a lot of talk out there

[outer tulip]

yeah its good, and people are saying postive things about it

[modern lichen]

ROP finale ||i love the sauron reveal even more now||

[outer tulip]

one criticism I heard || was that the 3 elvish rings were suppsed to be created last... || ROP/Simillarion .. but that's it

[outer tulip]

I literally screamed

[modern lichen]

ROP finale ||they changed that part because the nine rings were forged concurrently||

[brave orbit]

I'm so glad I dropped this show, I hate all the "the lore said this not that"

Maybe S2 will be better

[outer tulip]

I dont know it so it doesn't effect me luckily

[brave orbit]

It doesn't effect me either

[modern lichen]

ROP finale ||which i am ok with, i think they have already hit the momentum running||

[outer tulip]

ROP finale || I think this makes sense too cause either way Sauron doesn't touch them ||

[brave orbit]

But if I watch a weekly show I would want to engage in it somewhat not "the lore goes like this etc"

[outer tulip]

I didn't see a whole lot of that tbh.. and if you don't know the lore than you really dont have to worry about it

[modern lichen]

thats fair

[outer tulip]

maybe I didn't understand

[modern lichen]

There was a lot of that coming from neckbeards yeah

[outer tulip]

oh ok I started to tune it out after a while

[modern lichen]

I'm a huge Tolkien fan but god it's frustrating seeing the crying and whining

ROP finale || oh shit i just realised, Sauron offered his suggestion and ideas to Celebimbor as a "gift", Annatar manifested there ||

[outer tulip]

ahh.. gotta give it a second watch

[modern lichen]

I had some issues with this show as well, a few were glaring but they didn't affect my enjoyment of the series at all

[outer tulip]

that's what I like to hear.. I def understand there are some differences but I feel this show did a lot of good. From the visuals and action, it just all felt balanced

way better than She Hulk

[modern lichen]

Inane comparison lol

[brave orbit]

She hulk seems more interesting to me but i didnt watch it

[modern lichen]

But i haven't see She Hulk since the last 2 weeks

[outer tulip]

yea but from a strict enjoyment perspective

but the She Hulk defenders man.. they are out here !

you can't say anything bad about the series anywheree

[modern lichen]

You're a Marvel fan who defended a lot of shit here man lol

I think the complaint that She Hulk went too meta is just stupid, she is the original 4th wall breaking character in Marvel alongside Deadpool

[outer tulip]

this is probably the first one I genuinely didn't enjoy that much so its kind of new being on this side of the marvel criticism

[outer tulip]

you have to watch the finale

can I just tell you what happened?

[modern lichen]

I'll see for it myself

But not now

[outer tulip]

wordd yeah. lmk what you think

So far She Hulk and ROP are done.. so that leaves Hot D and Andor

will need to backfill soon

[modern lichen]

I am planning to binge Andor tonight

[outer tulip]

nicee

there's going to be 12 episodes but this is def a good time

[modern lichen]

Knew it was going to be excellent but I wanted to join regardless of it being halfway through

[outer tulip]

oh same. SW fans are very week by week.. so if you heard anything bad its just cause they have issues waiting to see how things come together

[modern lichen]

I've not heard a single bad thing about the show

And i heard episode 6 which is the midseason finale was fuckin brilliant

[outer tulip]

absolutely brilliant

I didn't blink once

Andor/GoT || the girl who plays Vel is also from GoT (i forgot her name but she was the faceless man apprentice who attacked Arya).. I love her in this series ||

[modern lichen]

I've seen Wanze's reaction too and if he is liking the series that much then this show must be doing so many things right

[outer tulip]

yeahhh he's a tough cookie to crack when it comes to SW

[sonic quail]

Ive seen rhe finale

It was kinda cringe but minor considering the shows been doing shit like that

[outer tulip]

for Andor? you mean the midseason finale?

[sonic quail]

She-Hulk has been more enjoyable and entertaining than most of rhese shows theyve pushed out.

[sage remnant]

How long is RoP?

[sonic quail]

Which was surprising. Dont get me wrong a lot of it was cheesy as hell tho but honestly fun

[outer tulip]

it was definitely interesting and different

[modern lichen]

Oh shit, I'm reading about the structure of this show and wow, so with 12 episodes, it's basically divided into three episode arcs that converge in a single climax every three episodes headed by a writer-director creative pairing for each of the three episode blocks

So in effect there are 4 climaxes in the series itself

[outer tulip]

oh that's why the premier was structured like that then

[modern lichen]

So the decision to release the first 3 episodes to build the groundwork makes sense because it's effectively a single movie headed by a writer-director pair

[outer tulip]

6 episodes

[modern lichen]

8

Not 6

[outer tulip]

I mean 8 my bad

[modern lichen]

Each episode is over an hour long

[sage remnant]

Ah

[outer tulip]

why are episode 6s always so goated

Sandman, ROP, Andor

[modern lichen]

Rising action and payoff

They need to set things up to a crescendo and then pay off as the blocks start being put into place

[sage remnant]

I find it difficult to consider ep 6 of Sandman as an episode ngl. I view it as a pair of short films than an episode

[modern lichen]

Still an episode of television that connects to a larger narrative

[sage remnant]

Yeah but just feels weird calling it that for some reason

[modern lichen]

Fair enough

[outer tulip]

that's how I felt about the extended episodes

[modern lichen]

Sandman is not your traditional structured narrative

It has many stories and pieces that are single narrative issues/short stories that also connect thematically and literally to the larger narrative

[outer tulip]

besides episode 6 I feel the other ones followed that structure as Andor (somewhat)

1-3 4-5 6 7-10 .. felt like grouped arcs

[modern lichen]

Nah

Andor is another exception

ROP is a pretty traditionally structured narrative

Inciting incidents, rising action, setup and payoff

[sage remnant]

I have zero knowledge of Star Wars but is Andor actually v good or is it the monotony of the star wars content that makes it good? (assuming this based on what I have seen people say)

[modern lichen]

It's brilliant

[outer tulip]

idk what you mean by monotomy of the sw content

[modern lichen]

Boring shit like Boba Fett and Obi Wan

[outer tulip]

ohh lol

I was listening to some sw podcasters who actually preferred those over Andor

[modern lichen]

They are idiots

[outer tulip]

they said this show doesn't represent true star wars in the way the other shows did

[modern lichen]

?

How

[outer tulip]

SW || there's no reference to the force, its disconnected from the character we like, etc. ||

ofc I don't agree

Boba Fett was actually bad imo

[modern lichen]

This show does shit that is just so inherently daring that i don't really see how it's bad

[outer tulip]

yeah I mean I like it for the exact reason they don't.. its covering a different perspective and like you said, just more daring

[modern lichen]

We need something different from Star Wars, not the same old shit

[outer tulip]

exactlyy

[modern lichen]

Yeah bro, existing characters related to the Skywalker saga boohoo

[outer tulip]

lmao I know.. its pretty played out at this point

[modern lichen]

Fuck that

[outer tulip]

now the other half of the fandom who like it are comparing it to what they like about Mandalorian

I think that's fine

[modern lichen]

The Mandalorian S2 was pretty good, S1 was just good

[outer tulip]

yeah I tried rewatching s1 and fell asleep ha

but S2 is really good.. and I think Boba Fett was good as a spinoff but that's kind just it for me

[modern lichen]

obi wan fuckin sucked too

[outer tulip]

it was forgettable

I feel Obi Wan was the final nail in the coffin for many to just leave the skywalker saga alone

[modern lichen]

i think people shouldve realised that with the end of the sequels

[outer tulip]

yeah the sequels is just a whole other conversation.. there are still petitions to redo them smh

[modern lichen]

nah

[outer tulip]

https://www.change.org/p/the-walt-disney-company-remove-the-star-wars-sequels-from-canon-and-reboot-them/c -- in case you wanna laugh (or sign lmao)

[fallow saffron]

Lmao didn’t they try to do this with the prequels too

[modern lichen]

andor episode 2 ||god, timm is annoying ||

fiona shaw and stellan skarsgard on this show, holy shit

[outer tulip]

word I love the casting for this show

[modern lichen]

gotta love the paranoid spy thriller vibe this show has

[white smelt]

Damn, it’s going to be 12 episodes?

[modern lichen]

and another season as well

[white smelt]

That much I knew

[modern lichen]

of 12 episodes

so yeah

[burnt lake]

vox machina season 1 ||I liked the Briarwood stuff and Whitestone. I finally understand why that powder shit is important in campaign 3||

also... ||DRAGONS!||

[modern lichen]

Vox Machina season 1 || the briarwood arc is amazing but now it's the chroma conclave arriving at Taldorei ||

Vox Machina season 1 || remember the blue dragon in the first few episodes? That was a fledgling dragon that was part of the chroma conclave which is entirely composed of bigger and far more dangerous dragons than it ||

[mild seal]

vox machina season 1 ||yeah I figured he was just a little one lol||

[modern lichen]

Vox Machina season 1 || just as a primer, chromatic dragons are colored dragons which are evil aligned, as opposed to metallic dragons, which are good/neutral||

Vox Machina season 1 || these dragons are ancient dragons too, so they're the biggest and baddest dragons around ||

@sage sleet I’d bet money you watched this before so I’ll ping you

[crimson lance]

Man they really can't think of any new character archetypes huh

[sage sleet]

you would be right lol

i mean it works

[crimson lance]

Yeah it works just they haven't done any better character wise since s1

[sage sleet]

tdi was good with their body types and archetypes for the most part i'd say

true

s1 cast perfect

[crimson lance]

Nothing better than Duncan Courtney Owen Gwen etc

[sage sleet]

ion like blondes but i really liked lindsay when i was young

not bc her rack she was just fun

leshawna was great

i usually dislike when they make the fat char the goofy food lovin type but owen worked

felt genuine

[river kelp]

What’s better. The Backyardigans or Hey Arnold (please I need y’all’s opinions)

[main lion]

The Backyardigans is better for 5 year olds, Hey Arnold is better for everyone else

[river kelp]

Mmm okay okay okay

[brave orbit]

@rich meadow brandon teased a new stormlight character from the miniatures campaign

Stormlight teaser || https://imgur.io/6p60j8i ||

[sage remnant]

[brave orbit]

||Zellion is the name ||

[sage remnant]

Stormlight || So that character is gonna be in future Stormlight books ig? ||

|| or is it for some upcoming video game or smth like that? ||

[brave orbit]

Book

[sage remnant]

Nice

[brave orbit]

Stormlight ||
During our last trip to Dragonsteel HQ, we talked to Isaac and Brandon about adding characters that weren't previously planned. Our Nale and Rysn miniatures both came out of that trip. During the same conversation, Brandon said, "let's add Zellion."

"Who?" we asked. We know the Cosmere very well, and Zellion was not a name we'd ever heard. Brandon just smiled and gave Isaac a knowing look. Isaac told us he'd work with Ben to get concept art to us as soon as possible. ||

[main lion]

stormlight ||design looks a little uninspired, but I assume this wouldnt be the final design||

[brave orbit]

Stormlight ||Yea he has shardplate on ||

[brave orbit]

Guess u couldnt watch @spice folio

😔

[modern lichen]

HOLY SHIT

@sage sleet https://www.reddit.com/r/movies/comments/y70e4v/black_adam_was_originally_rated_r_and_had_10/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

[sonic tree]

Bring back r rated blockbusters

[pale tangle]

Oh my ducking got less gooo

[brave orbit]

Oh shiiit

@rich meadow Brandon posted the first flashback chapter from SA book 5 too

SA 5 || https://wob.coppermind.net/events/504-new-york-comic-con-2022/ ||

Holy shit the prose

[obsidian basalt]

@brave orbit is it worth reading the prologue + first flashback chapter now or should i wait for the full book

[brave orbit]

Full book is in 2024

So

[obsidian basalt]

Yeah but like

[burnt lake]

Yeah but like +2

[obsidian basalt]

Dont wanma ruin the experience

[brave orbit]

There is one more chapter posted about ||Kaladin||

[obsidian basalt]

Ok now youre tempting me

[brave orbit]

So its prologue + 2 chapters

I'd say just read the chapters

Prologue you could read later

[obsidian basalt]

I should probably reread first

Cause its been like 2 years

[brave orbit]

Ah lol

Think dawnshard and ROW only would be fine

[obsidian basalt]

I dont have a way of reading dawnshard

I have illegal pdfs of all the main books but i couldnt find danwshard and edgedancer, although i did read edgedancer when it came out

[brave orbit]

They came out officially

[obsidian basalt]

Yeah i know

I just dont have them

[brave orbit]

Ah ok

[obsidian basalt]

Row ||man im not sure if im ready to read the kaladin part again||

[brave orbit]

😭

[spice folio]

years and years? College and work are killing me, currently taking some finals and making some productions. I'll def watch at least the first two episodes before the end of the month tho.

I'll keep you updated

[spice folio]

cowards

[brave orbit]

Its ok, was just asking because you said youd watch on weekend

[sage remnant]

How long is Years and Years?

[jolly heath]

Years long

[spice folio]

I'm excited to watch it, a friend of mine loved the show

[spice folio]

https://tenor.com/view/ba-dum-tsss-drum-band-gif-7320811

[brave orbit]

6 episodes

[sage remnant]

BBC miniseries length?

For eps

[brave orbit]

Yea

55ish minutes each

[leaden depot]

Time to flint some stones

[brave orbit]

Will RTD do it

[cold stream]

Trakt? Nice! Never seen someone else use it before

[leaden depot]

lol yeah I have only met a few

[cold stream]

Bruh I wanna watch ever episode of the Flintstones too!! Lucky haha I have too many shows rn

I can't believe how many episodes it has... Over 100 i think

[leaden depot]

166

Over 6 seasons

[cold stream]

That's wild. I miss American cartoons from that time. The Jetsons had a ton of episodes too!

[leaden depot]

This is the first animated one I see where episodes lasted 20+ minutes instead of the usual 7 which followed the same formula of movie shorts

[cold stream]

Yes!! Those "films" from the 1940s to like the 1970s that were originally black and white like "Steamboat Willie". I know what you mean. It's weird how 7-9 minutes was considered a "film" from that time for a cartoon lol

America has a rich culture of old cartoons. So many people only "know of" these shows or seen a few episodes, but there is literally so many good stuff to see I think

[leaden depot]

Yeah they were shown before actual full lenght movies

[cold stream]

Bruh I'm thinking about watching every episode of Tom and Jerry in order... Probably gonna take a year

Considering it is still ongoing lol

[leaden depot]

lol nice

I have watched most of it by now

You see I'm insane and going in chronological order

[cold stream]

Same. And some American cartoons are awful at keeping consistency and order. Like a lot of streaming services and home video releases of old cartoons are called "volumes" and for example, "volume 1" of Tom and Jerry, probably isn't the actual first episode ever made. And probably other shows from this time period

They were not big on chronology like how Japan always was I guess

[leaden depot]

F

Well I use wikipedia to know the order

[cold stream]

Wikipedia is great. Another amazing one is https://thetvdb.com
And then IMDB is also great

[leaden depot]

Yeah

[feral kettle]

lady vengeance was actually so difficult to find online

wtf

[mild seal]

whats lady vengeance?

[modern lichen]

A film by Park Chan Wook

Great one

But it's fucked up

[feral kettle]

tryna binge his some of his films before decision to leave

Handmaiden tomorrow then JSA on thursday

[modern lichen]

Decision to Leave is pretty great

It's like a quirky Hitchcock inspired movie

[feral kettle]

nevermind this doesnt have subtitles

[sinful vessel]

Just watched Megamind for the first time in years

that was a very good movie

[feral blaze]

His vengeance trio of movies was solid from what I remember watching.

[feral blaze]

It was a good movie. More solid than I thought it’d be watching it after a while as well.

[outer tulip]

@sage sleet do NOT look at Black Adam rotten tomatoe.. this is your first and final warning 😄

[hoary hawk]

why not?

[sage sleet]

Ah yeah I saw lol

[outer tulip]

its hard heart breaking 😦

[sage sleet]

Ion trust review sites like that lot of mixed opinions

[hoary hawk]

ye

me either

[outer tulip]

oh idc either

im still gonna watch it and love

it

[sage sleet]

Ign gave it a 5 but they also gave she hulk an 8 lol

[outer tulip]

eww

ofc they would

[sage sleet]

Yeah I’m excited ion think it’ll be perfect but at the very least it’ll be fun and action filled

[outer tulip]

they been fake woke all year

[sage sleet]

Jsa and how it’ll piece things together is what is mega hypin me up

[outer tulip]

did you also hear about the new man of steel?

[hoary hawk]

no

is it henry cavill?

[outer tulip]

yeap

its happeninggg

[hoary hawk]

i like him as supe

so thats kewl

[outer tulip]

i doubt they'll butcher like the first one

if they do, then they've learned nothing

[hoary hawk]

depends on the writing/directing

[outer tulip]

im more putting it on the studio

they know the standards

[sage sleet]

Yeah the news is exciting

[hoary hawk]

not as exciting as when i get to talk to u

[sage sleet]

@outer tulip @hoary hawk also idk ion wanna sound biased bc I like dc but people been shitting on this movie Bc of the rock. The rock is a good actor I get he can play himself a lot but this role I think he nails

You my cinnamon apple fate

Also not to mention that DC has a mixed track record and black Adam isn’t very known to an extent

[outer tulip]

samee... i heard he was good in it

[sage sleet]

So people would be hesitant to watch dc do sumn new

I’m excited man

[feral blaze]

I remember some people had doubts on if the Rock could play the role effectively earlier on. That’s good to hear from what you’re saying.

[fresh umbra]

Remember not to worry about Rotton Tomatos scores

[outer tulip]

critics have been trying to knock down Dwayne for a hot minute now.. he's been the highest paid actor and that's a problem for some (I guess)

[feral blaze]

Weird

[outer tulip]

rotten tomatoe destroyed Eternals... will never forgive them for that

[hoary hawk]

never seen ww84

[outer tulip]

ww84 is actually bad

[fresh umbra]

Keep it that way

Shits garbage

[outer tulip]

its 58... that must've been paid reviews.. they must've felt it wasn't needed for Black Adam?

I dont get RT politics

[sage sleet]

Esp rn I ain’t listening to anyone

Esp on comic movies and big titles

Everyone loves to hate

[outer tulip]

most def

[sage sleet]

It’s always the marvel stans, syndyerverse freaks, and random haters

You don’t have to like dc or marvel people weird you can like both

Or none lol

[outer tulip]

as an mcu fan.. I actually want dcu films to make a comeback lol

i mean who wouldn't.. superman, batman, wonderwoman are way more famous then any mcu hero

[fallow saffron]

The wonder woman movies😴

[sage sleet]

First one was good til the end but yeah but boring

Second one xddddd

Dc being whack hurts

They have great movies but no direction

Well ig they have direction now which is great

[feral blaze]

What do they do now?

[fresh umbra]

DC only knows how to make good Batman solo movies

[burnt lake]

"let's make an interconnected universe so that the films that aren't a part of it are so much better by default"

[sage sleet]

Aquaman, Shazam, suicide squad, first ww for the most part were good for dceu

And the non dceu projects have been great

Their shows been p good

Titans has a bad start but it’s a get better as you go series

Not dceu but still

[burnt lake]

Man of Steel on it's own was alright tbh, not great or anything but yeah

[sage sleet]

I was gonna rewatch that tonight

[burnt lake]

It's mid but it isn't bad ig

[feral kettle]

woah that was really great

best park chan wook so far i think

[cunning spruce]

lol this is kinda crazy

wtf

[sage remnant]

Yeah lol

[turbid oxide]

I came across this series called Kenny vs Spenny. I thought it was a YouTube series but it aired on tv where Im from during the 2000s, It’s basically whoever can do the most _____ wins, and there are pretty funny ones I’ve seen.

[limber knot]

all those hype for nothing then

[sage sleet]

Some of the people rating black adam poorly rated she hulk highly so keep that in mind lol

Captain marvel also did well on RT

@burnt lake so I’m watching man of steel again and I really wanna know why people hype up the snyderverse

I liked the Snyder cut

And I think Henry’s Superman has potential

I just don’t get the Snyder cultists

[burnt lake]

Idk if DCEU was within the public's mind back then

[sage sleet]

Superman and captain America my least favorite heroes bc they’re very plain very good etc and I get that Superman in man of steel is a stranger on earth

And also the fact that man of steel was meant to be a trilogy

But idk it felt too distant and Snyder loves his religious refs and it shows in this

[burnt lake]

"We're gonna make a Superman Trilogy!"
"Uh oh, didn't do so hot in box office, we're gonna make it a whole DC universe now"

[sage sleet]

Wb is sumn else the way they intervened a ton

Superman and cap my least favorite heroes but they can be done really well

[burnt lake]

What with CN studios being gone now...

WHO WILL ANIMATE THIS HUH

WHO

[sage sleet]

I hope man of steel 2 is good but I hear that depends on how black Adam does opening weekend

CN isn’t gone

[burnt lake]

The studio is

Not the network

[sage sleet]

Saw some people that work at CN talkin bout it

[burnt lake]

Not like gone gone ofc,

Just will be different

[sage sleet]

It ain’t been the same since that week block of nothing but teen titans go

CN needs to go back to experimenting

I ain’t had cable in years but they should be running more shorts to see what clicks and go with that

Really sad that new originals aren’t being bought much

They want old ips

[burnt lake]

I just want a sub-channel where it shows all the no longer currently running shows

[sage sleet]

@barren temple Craig McCracken is doing the fosters reboot or whatever it is bc he pitched 16 original shows to Netflix

[sage sleet]

That’s what boomerang was I heard it’s super flooded now

With teen titans go and things like that or sumn

[mild seal]

boomerang used to be hanna-barbera stuff

then the late 90s/00s cartoon cartoons

no idea what it is now

[burnt lake]

Hmm

[sage sleet]

I watched a vid on it now and it looks so sad

[sage sleet]

kid cosmic wasn't even one of them

he pitched 16 AFTER kid cosmic

wait wb kids yt channel is streaming scooby doo and the cyberchase lol

what happened to tv man

even nicktoons is cooked

boomerang is flooded with ttg, ppg 2016, gumball

[mild seal]

the same thing that happens to everything

greed and money

[sage sleet]

lot of tom and jerry but where's the other stuff

where's the jetsons bruh

embarrassing

[mild seal]

[brave orbit]

@scenic frost why is your name always so hard to ping

[modern lichen]

There are many Akagamis in this place

[brave orbit]

I noticed

[modern lichen]

That's why

[scenic frost]

What did you want to ping me for

[brave orbit]

Brandon has read 2 chapters from book 5 of stormlight

[scenic frost]

Ik

I am not reading them

I will read the full book

When it releases

[brave orbit]

And also teased a character with the design

[scenic frost]

Yeah i saw the character design

Don't wanna sound like downer but it looked pretty meh tbh

Like most of the other special armor designs except red

I am assuming that was only a working sketch or something tho and not the final thing

[brave orbit]

Maybe

[scenic frost]

Tho i won't lie i haven't liked most of the stormlight || shardplate || art all that much

[brave orbit]

I like specific designs

[scenic frost]

Stormlight || idk it looks waaay to much like typical fantasy armor I had something different in mind that I thought looks better lol ||

If only i could draw lol

[brave orbit]

The ones where it looks ||super futuristic|| are the shit (stormlight)

[scenic frost]

Stormlight || i had something more along the lines of slender, light armor instead of full, heavy plate armor ||

[modern lichen]

There's a lot of pretty cool fanart of the series where it's presented as such

Love seeing those

[scenic frost]

Ohh yeah i would like to see that

[modern lichen]

Stormlight || https://www.artstation.com/artwork/b5Rxgv ||

|| i love szeth ||

Stormlight || https://www.artstation.com/artwork/ybLKb5 ||

[scenic frost]

Ohhh man this guy's || Marsh || mistborn is dope af

[scenic frost]

Yeah more like this, though I think the shoulder pauldrons are a bit much

[modern lichen]

I haven't even read Oathbringer yet I'll start after the current book I'm reading is finished

I have 2 books to finish, that and ROW

[scenic frost]

Good shit

Take your time, don't be me

[modern lichen]

I'm reading some stupid shit now and I'm just wanting it to be done with

And then I can get to the good stuff

[brave orbit]

Youve read edgedancer right

[modern lichen]

Stormlight || https://www.artstation.com/artwork/gJkW88 || this may be up to speed for you @scenic frost

[brave orbit]

Ariirf my beloved

[modern lichen]

Oh shit i have to read that too, I'll do it soon

Dawnahard after Oathbringer, correct?

[brave orbit]

Ya

[modern lichen]

Cool

[brave orbit]

Will you make it in time for the secret projects

[modern lichen]

Idk

I have to finish the book I'm reading, which frankly is a fuckin behemoth of nothingness

[brave orbit]

[modern lichen]

Filled with shitty purple prose and stupid aphorisms

And it's the sequel to a book i liked as a guilty pleasure

[crimson lance]

peanuts 1973

peanuts 1973

[scenic frost]

Ohhh yeaah that's what I am talking about

Stormlight || Form fitting, intricate, wouldn't work because it would be too fragile or too cumbersome if it wasn't shardplate ||

[hot tapir]

I didn't know black Adam is on theater

Very lack of promotion from DC

[crimson lance]

theyve been promoting it a ton

you just missed them all

[hot tapir]

Maybe it's just my country

[fresh umbra]

The Rock hasn’t been doing anything else but promoting it

[hot tapir]

It's very marvel oriented here

[scenic frost]

Stormlight || like with the official designs it only feels like a typical medieval heavy armor except that it's glowy. There's this mystique and elegance to it in the books that they simply don't do for me ||

[brave orbit]

I like the official one (stormlight)

[scenic frost]

Yeah that's the one I was referring to when i said I don't like it that much

The blade designs I do like

[brave orbit]

I like how polished it feels

And how each piece fits together seamlessly

[scenic frost]

The intricate parts of the armor I do like

Stormlight|| like that skirt of leaf like pieces and elbow and underarm joints ||

Stormlight || but the rest of it feels too bulky and uninspired tbh ||

[brave orbit]

Found this one

Stormlight

[unique cosmos]

omg this is one of my favorite storylines. I have the cartoon version on VHS too.

The best part is ||Charlie Brown gets voted head of the camp solely because he wore a bag on his head||

[rich meadow]

Gonna read it now

[brave orbit]

POG

[rich meadow]

Also I got a friend to start WoK

[brave orbit]

Pog?

[rich meadow]

Yeah he loves it

[brave orbit]

[rich meadow]

Funnily enough, WoK ||His favorite character is Shallan through the first half of the book rather than Kaladin||

[brave orbit]

Its my fav too

[rich meadow]

She's great

[brave orbit]

She is always hated by the fanbase lol

[modern lichen]

absurd

[brave orbit]

Yea

[feral kettle]

a little too much

[sharp robin]

What makes the family guy vas so distraught that they produce those screams

Especially the one from the most recent episode

[spiral void]

I don’t think black adam gonna be good

But i will watch it not gonna expect anything

The thing is black adam is a villain he is evil

I got the feeling that in the movie he is some kind of an antihero

[modern lichen]

he is an antihero in the comics too

[spiral void]

Really

[modern lichen]

yeah

[feral kettle]

i can tell black adam will suck from the trailers

[modern lichen]

avatar fan btw

reviews out btw

for black adam

[scenic terrace]

zfg letting me know these books are still going strong lmao

[mild seal]

apparently the head of DC films just quit

[obsidian basalt]

time to get new friends

[obsidian basalt]

wait no shot they are?

[feral kettle]

yup

[modern lichen]

Bad movie

[feral kettle]

avatar 2 trailer is one of the best hollywood trailers in a long time

[modern lichen]

That was a cool trailer ye

[feral kettle]

shd i watch jsa or handmaiden today

gonna watch the other one tomorrow anyway so its kinda inconsequential

[modern lichen]

Either or works

I'd say go for JSA today

And then Handmaiden tomorrow

[feral kettle]

aight

gonna watch thirst sometime soon too

[modern lichen]

He directed Stoker too, which is an English language film

Seen that?

[feral kettle]

Nah

it looks iffy lmk what you think of it

[modern lichen]

It's ok

Looks gorgeous of course but it's just ok

[feral kettle]

he also has a BBC mini series which is kind of weird

but it has florence pugh

[modern lichen]

Oh Little Drummer Girl? That's some good stuff

It's an extremely slow burn though

Michael Shannon in it too

[feral kettle]

love my slow burns

Have you seen that anthology film he did with takashi miike and someone else

[modern lichen]

Yeah

[feral kettle]

how is it

[modern lichen]

It's cool

It's straight up horror

[feral kettle]

spooky

i have to write an essay about a horror film of my choosing

i think i settled on possession or titane

[modern lichen]

Possession is very underrated

Oh wait, that's Possessor

[feral kettle]

posessor is the brandon cronenberg right

[modern lichen]

I thought you were referring to Possessor

Yeah

[feral kettle]

apparently he had to cut down his new film from Nc 17 to R

shame

[modern lichen]

I dont understand the US rating system

[feral kettle]

its stupid

[jolly heath]

https://iqfy.com/amazon-rings-of-power-warning/

show flopping means ww3 is here

[outer tulip]

idk which one you watched

but the one I saw looked really good

the early rotten tomatoe reviews are all pay offs and politics.. it'll def be a great movie. They just messed up the release schedule. they should've made it a fun summer flick

[sage sleet]

trailer 1 was eh but trailer 2 really went off

[outer tulip]

trailer 2 went crazy

[sage sleet]

i think people expecting so much

it'll be fun and very action paked at the bare minimum

cant see shit my cat in front of monitor

ok she off

[outer tulip]

yeahh it has to be at least action packed

[sage sleet]

i do think it might be a little too busy but i'm really excited

[outer tulip]

that's all I want and care for this movie tbh

[sage sleet]

yeah i just wanna have fun and see the jsa

[outer tulip]

there's a lot of layers to this movie it seems || especially now that superman is confirmed in it ||

[sage sleet]

seats at my theatre still super empty but that makes sense

[outer tulip]

it could just be a little all over the place... but the action should be there

[sage sleet]

DC has a mixed record plus black adam isn't a main char

[outer tulip]

mine was like half

[sage sleet]

||jsa + black adam + the villain + superman + whoever the mercanary people are make it seem very full but personally ion care im ready|| black adam

[outer tulip]

same lol... just keep me engaged throughout it all and I'm honestly good

[sage sleet]

||i think it'll fill up more once people hear from their friends. lots of people go to the movies based on worth of mouth over reviews so once they officially hear supes is in it i think they'll rush over|| black adam

[fresh umbra]

Found out who they recasted Ezra Miller as the flash with

[sage sleet]

LET'S FUCKING GOOOOO

give us wally west in the flash 2

[outer tulip]

yeah and then there's the audience review which determines how it is on an entertainment level rather than critical level.. which I'd be surprised didn't do well

if I don't like Black Adam.. I will never watch another DCEU film.. like this is IT for me

[sage sleet]

i'm trying not to watch anything spoiler after the big one we all know but from what i hear ||the film is really good and fun until like the final act or act 3 where it starts to die down|| black adam

[outer tulip]

The Batman 2 wont be DCEU (thank gosh) .. if BA is bad

[sage sleet]

heard the new ceo wants it to be

and with how much WB is dick riding reeves i wouldn't be surprised if it were

[outer tulip]

word but that would be weird for the casting

[sage sleet]

i wouldn't want that or ig i'd be neutral until we see the direction but for now a sep thing is the move

well affleck is out for the major run

[outer tulip]

oh for good?

[sage sleet]

unless her for whatever reason decides to come back

[outer tulip]

if he's out then bring it on in

[sage sleet]

yeah ||he has a part in aquaman 2 and i heard the flash now|| aquaman 2 flash

[burnt lake]

Barry but he's swole af

[outer tulip]

ah okay.. so he's practically still in it

[sage sleet]

||the flash movie originally was meant to kill off superman and batman or just superman idr which|| the flash movie

[outer tulip]

well with man of steel 2 I guess they won't do that now right?

or is that still a rumor on what's gonna happen?

[sage sleet]

so ||man of steel isn't like fully on it depends how black adam does bc say what you will about dwayne, but he put in massive work to get henry back so this is a massive test|| black adam

[outer tulip]

well Black Adam needs to hit it out of the park box office

[sage sleet]

||i personally think it will happen bc the hype over henry coming back has been enormous|| black adam

heard 60mil opening is what it needs

or sumn like that

unless people flood it after opening week

[outer tulip]

|| I'm actually not that excited about Henry, only cause I haven't liked anything superman related in DCEU personally... but I'm going into this movie with total fresh eyes || black adam

[outer tulip]

that's not bad

[sage sleet]

and aside from halloween ends or whatever it's called, black adam is the only major movie so it has all that time until i wanna say black panther

[outer tulip]

what was the budget though?

oh 60 mil just for opening night right?

[sage sleet]

||i think he CAN be a good superman but the superman he's been made to play has been a massive snooze fest. heroes like superman and cap america always been my least fav bc they're very safe and good and boring, but how they've been done in superman the animated series, JL and JLU + cap in the mcu did them good||

yeah 60 mil for opening

if it's less i think it'll be fine bc more people will come

lot of people are gonna wait to see what their friends say

[outer tulip]

yeah 60 mil they should be able to clear that FOR SURE

otherwise somehow the advertisement wasn't there for the general public.. and I can't see that being the case even though I've been following it

[sage sleet]

i think this will also do very well overseas

overseas love that mf the rock

plus it's a minority story

[outer tulip]

yeahh for sure

[sage sleet]

i feel for the rock bc he was really hyping this up then ezra stuff happened

and the other dc movies moved back

he put in mad work

[outer tulip]

|| MCU did a great job with Captain America cause they didn't make him BORING... idk how they managed to make Henry's superman so underwhelming but they need to make him more great and stand out.. I dont think that Superman vs Batman movie was good for his character or DCEU || dc films

[outer tulip]

I think people will notice his hard work

like you said people love the rock and I find this to be good casting, so I guess we'll see?

[sage sleet]

||ik in man of steel his bio dad literally said they'd see him as a god, but to keep playing that angle felt so bad. superman might have the abilities of a god but he's the hope and justice. this superman portrayal just felt so stiff and lifeless.|| dc films

i think the rock actually works great as black adam, aldis looks bonkers good, pierce looks amazing, atom smasher seems can be good ion personally know the actor from his works but he seemed good

||viola davis and harcourt idr her real name james gunn's wife i think they're great|| black adam

[sage sleet]

i think rn gal, jason, zachary, and dwayne are like perfect in their dc roles

for main cast

henry can be a good supermn but the superman in the dceu has been aids

[modern lichen]

I'm not going to be able to watch Black Adam till early November

But I'm not seeing good things

[feral kettle]

wow JSA probably the most emotional pcw film so far

one of the rare films that can make me laugh and cry

joint security area ||one of the saddest final shots :(||

[outer tulip]

yeah definitely.. I would throw Viola in there too

[outer tulip]

as long as people remember this movie is for action and entertainment and not flood their minds with the criticism to think it was actually about something deeper.. than I'm good. if the action and engagement isn't there. it's bad

[modern lichen]

What

If the movie is bad, it's bad

[outer tulip]

cause with these reviews, what happens is the movies IS engaging and entertaining (aka the purpose of a movie). But then RT makes it about character displays, story progression, just a whole bunch of shit that doesn't matter in terms of why wanted to see the movie. WHich is purely for action, entertainment and engagement

[modern lichen]

RT doesn't fuckin write reviews

It aggregates them

[outer tulip]

I just don't want people to leave the movie saying, it was great entertainment (aka served its purpose to the standards) but bad cause of all these reasons we didn't want to see it in the first place

tomatoe tomatoe

[modern lichen]

It's still individual opinions on the movie

What do you mean tomato tomatoe, it's not

[feral kettle]

thats just critics

[outer tulip]

im talking purely on the impression people have from RT

[modern lichen]

You think RT or metacritic writes these scores down?

They're aggregator sites

[outer tulip]

wdym?

the critics are writing their score

[modern lichen]

No

Oh boy

You misunderstood the entire thing

Holy shit lmao

[outer tulip]

it doesn't matter if they're writing tehir score on rottentomatoe.com or another site

they're writign their score

[modern lichen]

Dude

[outer tulip]

i know their aggregating

so its not news to me

[modern lichen]

You seem to be confused

[outer tulip]

what do you want to say?

[modern lichen]

The critics don't choose to have the reviews published on RT, if they're a critic, their publication where they write reviews (NYT, or someother news paper or culture site) will be considered a source of movie reviews, which will be counted among the reviews other publications have made for those movies by those particular critics and then assign a scale of positive or negative sentiment to that review which contributes to the RT score

Rotten Tomatoes does nothing to influence opinion

You misunderstood the entire thing and based your tirade on that

[outer tulip]

im sorry but I don't see what that has to do with anything.. people go to RT so I'm using RT

did you need me to use all the individual sources

?

i dont mind

[modern lichen]

Yeah dude, I'm talking about the actual reviews

[outer tulip]

itll just take time

[modern lichen]

LMAO

[outer tulip]

itll take forever.. people are using the aggregator RT and basing their opinions on it.. I'm calling it out

[modern lichen]

Calling out what

[outer tulip]

but if you need to point to all the specific reviewers that's fine
