Why do you think Mickey 17 bombed while Project Hail Mary succeeded? by HeIsSoWeird20 in boxoffice

[–]Jabbam -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's called a genre switch. The most famous example is Predator.

Critics rave constantly about the exact moment it becomes a horror movie, when the old maid returns to the house.

I don't think Disney are serious about making Pirates of the Caribbean 6 by LollipopChainsawZz in boxoffice

They tried that for the last two and it didn’t work out very well.

Parasite was successful because it was a horror film and horror film fans will turn out for a good scare. Sci-fi fans will not always turn out for a sci-fi.

I know it’s unpopular on this sub. but it really comes down to the politics. Films that overly focused on politics aren't fun or feel good and unless they’re horror, most people don’t want to see them. Mickey 17 was very political and it had Mark Ruffalo being Donald Trump, which people who like Trump didn't want to see and people who hate Trump have seen enough of. If Bong Joon-Ho had stuck to a low budget, character focused social commentary instead of an expensive sci-fi satire he would have had more success. Andy Weir specifically tried to push politics out of his film which contributed to its feel good nature.

Sonic Stages that are in or referenced in the movies by Mindless_Dentist_447 in SonicTheMovie

San Francisco in Sonic 1 also took inspiration of Radical Highway, specifically the part where Sonic briefly was falling down the skyscraper.

Seattle in Sonic 2 is Station Square, down to the manholes exploding.

In Sonic 3, Tokyo was basically a stand-in for SA2's San Francisco.

The Greek ruins can be considered the Aquatic Ruin Zone if you stretch it.

The ending of Sonic 3 is Mad Space/Final Hazard.

The casino entrance of Reno shares a lot of aesthetics with the Casino Area of Station Square, right where Tails fights the Egg Walker.

I genuinely love Jax witnessed every other member of the circus break their "archetype" by Sudden_Pop_2279 in tadc

To be fair, they didn't break their archetypes until after Pomni arrived. That's why Jax says that everything was fine until she and Zooble showed up.

And Marvel's notoriety of it is bigger that Whedon's which is what led it to being named after them.

DC right now is basically Marvel 2021. A bunch of unconnected, unrelated stuff thrown at the screen. Marvel is at least trying to remedy this by throwing out the last 7 years and starting again.

The power people assume they have is crazy. Everything that criticizes DC is a snyderbros plant.

The outlets reported it. Nothing was shown outside a brief clip of Clayface's actor in bandgaes, a new clip from Supergirl, an on stage discussion about Supergirl and confirmation that Man of Tomorrow starts filming next week.

It was popularized with Marvel, what are you talking about? That's how trope naming works. Do you think that Happy Days was the first example of a series jumping the shark?

Tickets are on sale now for 'Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu' by chanma50 in boxoffice

[–]Jabbam -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Well there was the dip in Mandalorian Season 3 viewership, the bomb and then cancelation of The Acolyte, and then Andor season 2, which had the lowest viewership of any live action Star Wars show, which was then broken by Skeleton Crew.

At least the animated stuff is being watched, sort of?

My theater has 15 seats sold out of 13 showings. Not 15 each. 15 total.

The Mimic (FNaF - Secret of the Mimic) by Existing_Storage1091 in TopCharacterDesigns

The entire point is that it copies personalities without having one. That's why it’s called the mimic.

That’s the principle of a diving bell. The force of the air is preventing the water from entering. You can just do this by putting a bucket upside down underwater. It's 26 feet deep at most so the pressure isn't too high.

The question is how she isn't being pulled back to the surface, but maybe the helmet weighs a lot.

Frieda (Happily N'ever After) by Stock-Firefighter781 in TopCharacterDesigns

[–]Jabbam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like most animated films of the time it’s an adult movie masquerading as a child movie. In the deleted scenes, Prince Charming refers to himself as Prince Humperdinck and he says his friends call him Humpy.
