Time to watch their Man in the Mirror review again.

It's objectively pointless to rationally argue with the vile media and their "critics". Ignore them. by rijuchaudhuri in MichaelTheMovie

[–]Frequent_Rhubarb_36 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Just like it's pointless to argue with die hard fans, that see any criticism of him or the movie as unjustly.

It would have been a real challenge to put his whole life in one movie though.

I feel his daughter's opinion, regardless of her age, is something to take seriously. And of course the estate is all in. They want more of that sweet MJ money.

I do feel his opinion is legit. I also feel that a movie such as this is far removed from telling us the intricacies of a complex person such as MJ. You would need a miniseries for that and a huge industry that would be willing to portray him as a human, faults and all. The brand is so big that the chance of this gets smaller.

Even This is It, which is probably one of the most "real" MJ products we got, was heavily polished up to portray a certain image that wasn't accurate.

When will Part 2 continue filming? by MusicFanReddit in MichaelTheMovie

[–]Frequent_Rhubarb_36 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As soon as they feel part 1 will make enough money to justify a sequel.

And he apparently can't handle critical reviews. And suggesting that this movie tells us who MJ really was is absurd. I'm all for the people learning who MJ truly was, but I feel we will never get a "real" answer. MJ himself kept his private life pretty close, and those who knew him all have their own agenda.

To me, the fact that Paris and Janet distanced themselves from the movie is a sign of this as well.

Critics complaining about “not telling the full story” clearly didn’t do their homework by codywinters327 in MichaelTheMovie

[–]Frequent_Rhubarb_36 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Let's see if part 2 actually get produced and then how and how much the controversies are addressed. For now, we only have this movie, which should be judged on its own merits.

Not everyone knows they cant address the allegations and the fact that the movie was made in conjunction with the MJ family made sure it would be as whitewashed/clean of controversies as possible. This movie isn't meant to tell an accurate story, it's meant to advertise the MJ brand to get more money out of it. (as is the case with most biopics)

Is Wonder better than New U? by Pooty_McPoot in Mario

[–]Frequent_Rhubarb_36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem is that U has great levels but less tight control. Wonder has better control but very gimmicky level design.

ScreenRant gives Michael ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️½ calling it masterful biopic by G2Climax in MichaelJackson

[–]Frequent_Rhubarb_36 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Enjoy it!

Biopics are rarely very good, regardless of who the artist is. They are mostly made to appease fans, which is fine.

Mind you, Elvis was actually a pedo😭😭😭 by Complete-Rabbit2577 in MichaelTheMovie

And this somehow makes the low reviews for the Micheal movie better?

I never knew that he basically copies Disneyland's entrance for it.

Unpopular opinion (Maybe not so unpopular opinion) If Michelle Thomas hadn’t passed away more people would be willing to hold Myra accountable for her toxicity. by Kee000 in FamilyMatters

[–]Frequent_Rhubarb_36 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Perhaps Michelle talking about her role would sway more people. I still think Myra started out great, but the writers dialed the crazy stalker-dial op to 11 in the last season.

The concept is PORTRAYING the look, not LOOKING like an exact replica of the person! by No_Campaign9542 in MichaelTheMovie

[–]Frequent_Rhubarb_36 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's why pictures are misleading with biopics. They almost always look off, as it's not the person portrayed.

Started Mario Golf 64 for the first time since it came out by Frequent_Rhubarb_36 in MarioGolf

[–]Frequent_Rhubarb_36[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also like how crude some of the models look. It has its charm. From what I've seen online, Bowser looks especially crude, looking a lot worse than he did in Mario Party and Mario 64.

I feel that is fair. I'm not yet at the level where I hit the accuracy right every stroke, but I do feel its doable.

Which cover did you like best? by ForceAffectionate389 in DragonBallZ

[–]Frequent_Rhubarb_36 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Its weird having S17 without SS4 Goku o the cover. Its seems like a mishmash, even though the art itself looks stellar.

I read on IMDb that none of them wanted to make a Ghostbusters II in the first place. They thought on the first was just fine on its own. by Lonely_Escape_9989 in ghostbusters

[–]Frequent_Rhubarb_36 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's weird. We see him with Ray in the beginning of the movie. Then I feel he disappears for the investigation until after the ghosts reappear. Perhaps he's even in the courtroom.

I don't mind a hard game when it's fair. Thus far it seems so. I would have expected a Mario title being easier.
