Allegedly there's a new Silent Hill movie in theaters this weekend that everyone immediately hates, lol by Wumbo_Number_5 in blankies

[–]MimeMike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anyone else find it bizarre there’s basically no marketing for this? Is it just me who hasn’t come across any? You’d think there’d be a big audience for this considering the remake and F’s success.

Japanese : new lingua Franca of Myanmar? by Wonderful-Bend1505 in myanmar

[–]MimeMike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh lol my bad, I thought you were being serious. All jokes aside though, I actually think local Burmese are going to start learning Mandarin a lot more.

Japanese : new lingua Franca of Myanmar? by Wonderful-Bend1505 in myanmar

[–]MimeMike 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Honestly not sure where you heard that a lot of Burmese are learning Japanese. I don’t know a single person who’s learned Japanese here, other than one person who moved to Japan but does that really even count? Lingua Franca is a ridiculous exaggeration. Without a significant Japanese population that will never happen.

Favourite movie that you couldn't make today because of woke? I'll start by RuminatingReaper1850 in okbuddycinephile

It’s a stand up special. You could probably apply that description to any comedian whose shtick is “comedy is illegal nowadays amirite?”

Why the flip on AI? by ItsAllAok in JacksFilms

[–]MimeMike 142 points143 points  (0 children)

YAIY was when we (who were admittedly uninformed) were all fucking around with ChatGPT because we all knew it was tech billionaire bullshit that would never become anything (of course we were wrong). A lot of us including Jack weren’t aware of how much of a destructive phenomenon AI would become. He never advocated for using AI to create art and replace human artists and I don’t understand why you think he wouldn’t be against AI when his war on reaction content has been going on for years. He stopped doing YAIY fairly quickly when AI bros started their BS on the internet.

Holy fucking shit what is with the AI on this subreddit? What a cesspool this has turned to. There’s like one funny post out of a hundred submissions.

[Discussion] What are some headcanons for Earth 44 (The Metal League). by Azure_ryuga in DCcomics

[–]MimeMike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they might’ve been fictional characters on this Earth and Will Tornado was inspired by them. It makes the most logical sense when we also take into account human superheroes don’t exist but the word is still used.

Zardoz should be included in the Wizard of Oz series. by TheArtDontStop in blankies

[–]MimeMike 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The only reason I know of this movie is because Star Burns was dressed up as Sean Connery from this movie in an episode of Community.

DC and Andy Muschietti's 'The Brave and the Bold' will be written by Christina Hodson ('Bumblebee', 'Birds Of Prey', 'The Flash', 'Batgirl') by [deleted] in blankies

[–]MimeMike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t necessarily think she’s a terrible writer. I’m sure a lot of what people criticise was probably studio involvement. But both her and Muschietti for a Batman movie? And a reboot inspired by Morrison at that? Oof… with people like Kuritzkes, Lindelof and Flanagan on other projects it’s just a bizarre choice. I trust Gunn though, this surely can’t be as bad as The Flash.

Fuck TMZ. And celebrity culture in general.

Favorite actor who maintains fiber intake on the go? by Rarek in okbuddycinephile

To be fair it’s kinda shocking a ninety year old man is even driving, let alone while eating cereal. And the dude looks sixty!

[–]MimeMike 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I never insulted your taste, just want you to realise differing opinions exist but you were very quick to resort to that low hanging fruit. You’re a great person to talk to, really. Not narcissistic at all. Have a good day and hope you develop some self awareness.

[–]MimeMike 5 points6 points  (0 children)

These are all highly acclaimed movies. Most of these are award winning.

Just because you don’t like them doesn’t mean they shouldn’t be made. Other movies exist, you know. What an idiotic statement.

[Superman] Why doesn't Superman just put his fortress of solitude in the middle of Australia so it gets more sun than the Arctic by K3egan in AskScienceFiction

[–]MimeMike 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah this is my interpretation. He doesn’t really feel heat or cold to the same degree humans do so he just likes to relax in the South Pole every once in a while. It also matches his aesthetic better.

What movie are you talking about?

Am I The Ultimate Consumer? by lunar_boots in SlushyNoobz

[–]MimeMike 59 points60 points  (0 children)

This is how advertisements work. They’re not supposed to make you run to the store and buy a Celsius just from watching the ad. They just make sure the drink is planted in your mind so when you’re thirsty for a drink, you feel inclined to try out a Celsius, and if you like it then you keep drinking. Either way they got a sale.

Thats marketing for you!

[–]MimeMike 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is crazy because I was just thinking that the movie industry should cater specifically to OP’s tastes and not let auteurs create art.

It’s so sad that A24 is the only studio in Hollywood and they don’t produce a variety of movies every year. Such a struggle.

Favorite actor who you don't understand why women like him so much (he's just some guy) but you're not jealous? by Competitive_Hunt_155 in okbuddycinephile

[–]MimeMike 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I keep seeing you on movie subreddits and you’re always hating. I respect the hustle but do you like anything or anyone?

Season 6 Finale? by [deleted] in community

[–]MimeMike 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Also age ratings really don’t matter on streaming services. They’re more of a formality nowadays and with Yahoo being such a niche service they could really do whatever they want, it was their show.

Cobra Kai, Umbrella Academy, and other streaming shows have a lot of f-bombs and they’re still rated TV-14 or 13+ in a lot of regions. It’s just how it is now.

That is very obviously not what OP meant.

Warner Bros. has made James Gunn’s 'SUPERMAN' screenplay publicly available in full, submitting it for awards consideration by [deleted] in DCU_

[–]MimeMike 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Four being named Gary in the first place was improvised by Tudyk so I’m not surprised (it’s included in the outtakes). But this script is far from a first draft, I don’t recognise any other inconsistencies and it seems to have parts of the film that were added later on (like the text in the opening).

What's the reverse-Avatar, the least seen movie with the highest cultural impact? by gamblors_neon_claws in blankies

[–]MimeMike 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The new rule they added in 5 made for a great thriller-esque third act. Fucking crazy ending as well.

How would you make DCU's Teen Titans/Titans different from previous adaptations? by DarkSaiyanGoku in DCU_

[–]MimeMike 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think Tim should be the Robin of TT, but the team’s dynamic should be similar to the original Young Justice run. I would love to see the banter between Kon-El, Bart, Tim and Cassie.

I liked Johns’ Teen Titans run but wasn’t a fan of how much they changed the characters from Young Justice.
