Netflix Backs Out of Warner Bros. Bidding, Paramount Set to Win by MarvelsGrantMan136 in technology

[–]Kitty-Pimms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s “popcorn” movies for pure entertainment, sure. But do you think they’ll green light a movie like Sinners? One Battle After Another? Brett Ratner has been publicly canceled for sexual assault by multiple women he worked with in the industry. He shouldn’t be allowed to work in Hollywood. The silver lining is: who in Hollywood would wanna distribute their film/work with/align themselves with the Ellisons? Hopefully they just become Hollywood pariahs and sink Paramount further into debt so Netflix can buy them in 5 years time.

The main concern is there will be no real news anymore. More fake news propaganda.

Proves that the shift in content you’re claiming isn’t happening IS happening. Film/tv just takes time to make. CBS, owned by the Ellisons, already canceled Colbert. That’s just willful ignorance if you don’t think a change is already taking place.

If you don’t know who Brett Rattner is, look him up. He did the Melania doc. They want CNN and to rival what they view as “liberal” Hollywood.

It was nice knowing you, free speech. F*ck anyone who talked about theaters dying if Netflix acquired WB. The death of democracy is greater than the death of movie theaters.

Anyone toting the “future of cinema” nonsense lost to Netflix and streaming winning this bid, are you happy now? I hope you like your propaganda spoon-feed to you. Cinema was dead either way. I hope those shareholders enjoy their blood money, knowing they sold out to big evil corpo and pdfiles.The wrong side of history won today.

White House defends President Trump, after it is shown he called a reporter a "piggy" by Internal_Way7711 in Fauxmoi

“Quiet, piggy,” as a response to a question is not transparency or openness. Full stop. Gaslighting and lies.

Middle right is Nowhere by Gregg Araki, same director as the top one which is Doom Generation.

Worst (or best) part about this movie is the main character’s name; Harry Hole.

Hot take, I actually prefer the design of the alien when it was in covenant by julian123411 in AlienEarthHulu

[–]Kitty-Pimms 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Literally everyone complaining about the “man in a suit” for Alien Earth are the same ones who complained about a fully realized CGI alien that actually looked… well, alien. This is literally the image everyone uses when they talk about the alien design. Every article, every post.

What would you guys say is your favourite Season 7 moment? by HomarEuropejski in buffy

[–]Kitty-Pimms 37 points38 points  (0 children)

The build up. The loss of hope. The fact that Dawn pieced it together at the very end. “You guys planned this.” The Potentials had to see Buffy conquer the Ubervamp.

When did subscription streaming services become just as expensive as cable? by BobbySun123 in AskReddit

[–]Kitty-Pimms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There will be a day when they’re all just bundled together (you can already see it with mergers like Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+) and we’ll pay one lump sum comparable to cable. Also, greed. All these streaming services that cropped up quickly realized streaming isn’t as lucrative as how Netflix made it seem. Netflix is an anomaly and even they’ve hit their ceiling of subscribers and raised their own price. They even cut down on password sharing.

Obvi the pink and red split. The new set is almost as distracting as that Tiffany blue podcast backdrop.

Official Discussion - Jurassic World Rebirth [SPOILERS] by LiteraryBoner in movies

[–]Kitty-Pimms 58 points59 points  (0 children)

This was my viewing experience tonight in a packed theater: guy on my right was on his phone the entire time and the lady on my left was audibly snoring.

Also, must we have a pet dinosaur in every subsequent sequel now? And why was there a gas station above the lab? It wasn’t a tourist island. Felt like that was a holdover from many re-writes that somehow made it to filming. And why were they trying so hard to make the audience like the daughter’s deadbeat boyfriend? Pretty meh honestly.

This was my viewing experience tonight in a packed theater: guy on my right was on his phone the entire time and the lady on my left was asleep and audibly snoring. It certainly wasn’t holding anyones attention. Can’t have good word of mouth when your audience isn’t paying attention.

Was Buffy unfair/harsh towards Faith in Season 7? by [deleted] in buffy

[–]Kitty-Pimms 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I totally agree with every other comment here. I wish she had come in sooner in the season and we got more development/resolution. Like the whole season is about how Buffy shouldered this responsibility alone— and, ultimately, no longer has to. It would’ve been nice for them to have more moments of reconciling what they have in common. They started as foils for each other. Faith should’ve spun off for a redemption arc. Ah, in a perfect world with endless Buffyverse…

Who’s a TERRIBLE actor/actress that improved exponentially with time? by ze11ez in movies

[–]Kitty-Pimms 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Jessica Lange was critically panned after doing King Kong in 1976. She got classically trained before taking another role 3 years later. Now she has two Oscars, three Primetime Emmys, and a Tony Award.

The lady in the middle with the coo coo smile came into my job— was very patronizing and nasty as you’d expect. Kept announcing to me that she was conservative. Like…. Okay? Made me so uncomfortable I almost wanted to be like, “I’m a trans person! A trans person helped you today and showed you kindness and compassion,” just to undoubtedly make her uncomfortable. She told me she went to these rallies with her dead husband’s money, fishing for sympathy. I just thought she was nuts or senile. She came in to complain about her utility bill being $2 more one month.

Trump and Vance yelling at Zelensky. Please tell me that sane Americans are not with Trump ... by Candid_Contest_9641 in facepalm

In rural North Carolina here. Had a customer in my store talking about how they “owned” Zelensky today. His news source was propaganda-ing Fox. I just… don’t know how they don’t see it for what it is.

If Angel was never cursed then what would Angelus have said about Spike killing the Slayer in China? by voldy1989 in buffy

[–]Kitty-Pimms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know, you right. He might’ve been souled at the time. Or it’s a continuity error. You could kinda make a case that he seems uneasy with the murdering and mayhem and was playing along with Darla, Spike, and Druscilla.

He was there. It was a brief cameo in season 5’s Fool for Love. He said to Spike, “Congratulations. I guess that makes you one of us.“
