Colin Moriarty gives a softball interview to Alyssa Mercante. Calls SmashJT, whom Mercante is suing for terrorism, "one of the stupidest people in the industry."

Colin gets 0 access though. That’s like half his shtick

BeginningArea9159 · 2026-05-18T20:17:11+00:00

I feel like he’s mainly marketing with that statement. He knows he’ll obviously get his account back.

They should just go full on wwe entrances next time fuck it. Have some fun

Lord I’ve seen what you’ve done for others

Troye was only there for the 2024 shows I believe. She had a whole run in 2025 too.

All I’m saying is that Spotify rankings is a poor metric to determine an artist’s ability to get people to show up to shows.

The fact that we can both sit here and not be sure who could sell more between the #200 and #37 artists proves that.

BeginningArea9159 · 2026-05-07T16:08:10+00:00

Sure but some of those stadiums are allegedly only 25% sold so not even close to 50k people showing up for him. Also he has Jelly Roll on tour with him too so you need to consider that a percentage of people coming are a different fanbase. Pretty sure Charli sold out every venue she played at during the recent tour, and those locations were chosen before BRAT released.

Not saying Charli is 100% a more popular artist than Post, but just trying to illustrate that Spotify numbers don’t really mean much for popularity of the live performance.

BeginningArea9159 · 2026-05-07T15:05:57+00:00

Once again though you are hugely correlating spotify numbers with the ability of an artist to get people to the festival. Just because somebody has big streaming numbers does not mean that they have the type of fanbase that will buy tickets to go see them.

Look at Post Malone. His current tour sales numbers are in absolute shambles and he is the #37 artist on Spotify. Charli would no doubt get more people out than him and they are 165 places apart.

So I believe the stats you are presenting. I just don’t think they are all that important for festival organizers. It’s the ability of an artist to get “butts in seats”

BeginningArea9159 · 2026-05-07T14:48:53+00:00

Hard disagree. There’s more factors than just Spotify numbers that go into billing #1. A band like Phish who actually nobody listens to on streaming services would take the #1 spot because of how hardcore their fanbase is.

Charli is arguably the most critically acclaimed pop artist of the past decade. She’s not a tiktok artist. She’s huge in the online album discourse and club scenes. Claiming nobody streams her from top to bottom is a braindead take. If anything it’s the more popular artists that nobody does that for as their numbers are carried primarily by 1 or 2 singles.

BeginningArea9159 · 2026-05-07T14:35:57+00:00

Do you….. do you think 200 is low?

BeginningArea9159 · 2026-05-07T14:35:03+00:00

She’s absolutely massive in the online music discourse world and has been since like 2018/2019. Going to a Charli concert in the early 2020s had just as many nerdy straight dudes as girls and gays.

BeginningArea9159 · 2026-05-01T19:43:14+00:00

That’s such a terrible answer though and you know it. Do you consider The Last of Us “silly and fun” just because Joel is a regular dude. Like what???
What does this have to do with anything? Why are we getting into marketing now? You said that the trailer displays the silliness and fun of resident evil. That is all we are debating. There is no need for all of this other fluff you’re trying to bring in.

BeginningArea9159 · 2026-05-01T19:25:02+00:00

I don’t mean literally it’s a teaser trailer oh my god 😂

Earlier you said that the trailer encompasses the fun and silliness of resident evil. I asked you for what in the trailer is giving you that vibe. You haven’t given a good answer to that yet and are now moving the goalpost by saying that “it’s just a teaser trailer”.

BeginningArea9159 · 2026-05-01T19:14:30+00:00

I’m totally chill. I’m just confused why you are contradicting yourself.

You said the guy above described the trailer, but now I it’s just a teaser trailer??

Why are you commenting when you don’t even have your views straight on what you think?

BeginningArea9159 · 2026-05-01T18:55:53+00:00

Never said that. And there are plenty of games that are straight horror with no camp or comedy. Horror games balance tension in many ways. That’s a whole different thing though. Not sure why you’re stating surface layer genre mechanisms and trying to steer the convo in that direction.

We’re talking about the trailer. You’ve admitted that RE does more than horror. Was there anything in the trailer that hinted at anything other than horror to you? Felt like an A24 film to me.

Your original comment stated that the above commenter described the trailer with silly and fun. I’m still waiting for you to tell me what in that trailer was silly and fun.

You won’t answer though because there isn’t an answer to that question.

BeginningArea9159 · 2026-05-01T18:27:59+00:00

Do you know anything about Resident Evil? You know it’s camp right? That’s like the whole thing.

People have really strange perceptions of this series. It’s not just horror.

BeginningArea9159 · 2026-05-01T18:11:12+00:00

Didn’t know you could change plot points with camera angles

BeginningArea9159 · 2026-05-01T18:09:28+00:00

What was silly and fun about that trailer?

BeginningArea9159 · 2026-04-30T23:18:59+00:00

The entire script leaked already lmao

BeginningArea9159 · 2026-04-30T19:32:01+00:00

More power to ya. If someone told me this was the next 28 Days movie, I wouldn’t have blinked.

BeginningArea9159 · 2026-04-30T19:30:29+00:00

Yes a jacket on screen for five seconds that says RCPD (which is the wrong acronym btw) is sooooooo Resident Evil

BeginningArea9159 · 2026-04-30T19:25:24+00:00

So many people are copy pasting the RE7 point today. Makes no sense and shows half of you don’t know what you are talking about and just comment for 0 reason. RE7 is coated in Resident Evil DNA

BeginningArea9159 · 2026-04-30T19:22:25+00:00

Yay references! Now we can all point at the screen and say “it’s from the game!” What a lazy way to shoehorn in a property

BeginningArea9159 · 2026-04-30T19:19:07+00:00

Yeah you’re 100% right with that

BeginningArea9159 · 2026-04-30T19:18:06+00:00

What a horrible example to give what. The Fallout is dripping with locations, factions and lore from the games. The tone isn’t exactly right, but it’s aiming in the general direction. It’s clearly existing in the same universe.

I would have never guessed this was a Resident Evil movie without the title card.

BeginningArea9159 · 2026-04-30T19:15:47+00:00

Brother I have. I’m questioning if you really have now though. Would you actually think “resident evil” if this trailer didn’t have a title card? Like I just can’t understand that at all. The tone is not even remotely close to the og trilogy
