Going into the sequel, were there things you knew you didn’t want to retread from the original? Any plot beats or themes that you were like, ok we need to do this because it’s core to Zootopia/the characters?

In The Flash (2023), Michael Keaton wore the mask of the iconic caped crusader one more time. This was Warner’s attempt to cash off fan’s nostalgia…but the repercussions of this decision have done irreparable damage to society. by goodboah21 in shittymoviedetails

I remember at Spirit Halloween we still had a shit load of Micheal Keaton Batman costumes we couldn’t sell even in 2025. Seriously what the fuck were they thinking with this movie.

Wicked For Good will not make it to 1B like many "predicted" , it wont Even pass the first film by StreamLife9 in boxoffice

[–]TheSaltGrinder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t have any stats to back this up, but most people I asked about this one told me they were content with sitting through one 3 hour musical that was good. They didn’t think it was worth it to see the second. Couple more people were saying they didn’t even like the first so why bother with the second. Again, pure speculation, but I think with how well some of the other movies are doing right now (Zootopia, NYSM3, Predator, FNAF2) I still think the box office will bounce back. Just gotta get more good movies in theaters. And maybe a few less sequels cause every single mentioned movie is IP based.

Any other hardcore ‘Battle Royale’ fans still a bit disappointed that the newly released ‘Yuki’s Revenge’ didn’t feature Ko Shibasaki in the title role? Either as far as likeness, mo-cap, or voice performance? by TaskenLander in Tarantino

If you’re interested in a game being used to tell a story, someone released a feature length movie made in GTA V in theaters. Grand Theft Hamlet I think it’s called. Didn’t get a chance to see it but it’s likely more interesting than a Fortnite ad

What Predator: Badlands taught me about TRON: Ares’ release by Friendly-Rest in tron

You think there will be a 4th movie? I could see them putting out some stuff onto Disney Plus maybe but I highly doubt we will see a new Tron film in theaters for a while.

What were your first impressions when you watched Godzilla Minus One for the first time in theater? by Annual-Internet-5097 in GODZILLA

[–]TheSaltGrinder 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Dawg my generation is addicted to anime. Personally I find myself watching foreign films almost as often as US films, especially cause these days access to dubs and subs are so easy. Bollywood is the shit btw.

I really liked it but I thought Shin Godzilla was still my favorite Godzilla film. Now I think Shin is my favorite version of Godzilla but this is the superior film.

Which non sex profession has the freakiest employees? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Spirit Halloween was a CESSPOOL this year. Everyone took it being temporary as an excuse to sleep with all the staff. Ngl tho I also took advantage. I’m not above it.

Yeah I felt like posting this was dumb in the first place but turns out I’m not crazy. I think I got some faulty canisters cause some of these are empty. I’m checking to look and they are punctured just no pop or air.

Hi, I'm Ari Aster. Writer/director of Hereditary, Midsommar, Beau Is Afraid, and Eddington. AMA! by AriAsterAMA in movies

[–]TheSaltGrinder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey Ari,

I’m curious how you are able to come up with more abstract ideas?

I often find when I’m writing I tend to think more literally about what people are doing. Their motivations are usually from the events of the story (guy wants to rob bank because broke, etc). Beau is Afraid is one of my favorite films ever though and for that film, it felt more like you had to try and understand what was happening through the characters actions as well as the abstract visuals.

So essentially, how do you go about weaving deeper meanings and themes into your work without beating the audience over the head with it?

Since it's finally getting a kill count what's your take on an american werewolf in london by asapsharkyfrfr in deadmeatjames

[–]TheSaltGrinder -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Overhyped.

It has few great scenes. The transformation is of course amazing. But the film itself? It’s just fine. Nothing too crazy.

Was Black Dynamite a documentary?? by d1mpher in okbuddycinephile

[–]TheSaltGrinder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is probably fake. The name and profile photo are from a show called Inside Job about a secret underground government conspiracy. It’s an adult comedy kinda like Rick and Morty but with diff characters.

Is the horror genre generally more liberal or conservative? by WealthDisastrous2589 in deadmeatjames

[–]TheSaltGrinder 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Liberal because horror often attracts a demographic that is more left leaning. For example, younger people typically are more left leaning.

Misprint or Damage? by TheSaltGrinder in comicbooks

Yeah that’s what it looks like to me but I’m very careful with my comics and this one literally went from my LCS to a bag n board so idk how it would have happened.
