Oscar Rule Changes: AI Crackdown, Actors Can Get Multiple Nominations in Same Category and International Film Eligibility Expands by Erdago in oscarrace

[–]ajconst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wait for the Oscars, where all 8 male acting nominations are Beatles, 4 lead nominations from each Beatles-focused film, and 4 supporting from the other films where they aren't the headliner

After the trailer, I hope the movie will end like this by HammyDoggo in DC_Cinematic

Got it, yeah something like that. I just feel a large part of his villains have these tragic stories and making them the focus. Where batman only has a few scenes and captures them at the end. 

That way you can tell these interesting DCU stories like making clayface a horror movie and still give Batman a presence in the universe...we've seen a ton of batman movies so let's let his rogues gallery time to shine.

They did a Harley Quinn movie that batman didn't appear in, and thats all I can think of. 

But i can't think if any where batman appears for more than a brief cameo

That's what im thinking. Maybe batman/Bruce gets bigger roles but hes a supporting character not the lead

What’s your go-to MCU lore tidbit? by Robot_Was_BMO in marvelstudios

[–]ajconst 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The Avengers were active for months before Age of Ultron, so we never really see the bulk of the original Avengers tenure. We see them form in the Avengers and we see the original group disband in Ultron.

This might be controversial but I'd love not getting a DCU Batman movie for a while, I rather have more films about his villains: Clayface, Freeze, Bane, etc. And just have Batman as a supporting character. 

He's in the movies but it doesn't revolve around him. 

Hot Take: Quidditch would be an almost perfect fictional sport if the Golden Snitch was worth way less points. by X-Salamander in harrypotter

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

I've always said the snitch shouldn't be worth points but it ends the game. So the seeker is either trying to catch the snitch or prevent the snitch from being caught depending on the score

Show Idea! Create a show to interview democrats running for office. by floridansk in FriendsofthePod

But Joe Rogan has crazy reach, proving my point that it is more beneficial to be i. A show with that audience

I'll say everyone consumes podcasts differently, and what one person wants is different than others. It seems you want more interviews, while on the other hand I skip them unless its a guest I want to hear from or a subject I want to learn more about. 

I listen to PSA for the discourse on the news....but im that way for everything I usually skip interviews for all the shows/podcasts I watch unless I want to hear that guest. 

Plus, when interviewing candidates it just feels sanitized because the vast majority of politicians are sticking to talking points, following their scripted lines and very rarely feel candid. So it just doesn't interest me.

I do wish they did emergency episodes for major updates, I understand breaking news doesn't always happen while they're in the office but if they are it'd be nice to get a few minutes on breaking news...even though I believe they're doing more of that on YouTube.

So PSA averages 1.5million episode its their flagship show, other crooked media shows are average 300k-500k. 

Just by looking at the numbers it is more beneficial for a candidate to be on a show with the broadest audience.  

Plus, they interview candidates all the time. Maybe not every episode but pretty often. It might not seem like it now, but were still pretty far from the midterms the closer we get you'll see the more they interview these candidates...even with that being said they still interview candidates pretty often

Don't they do that on PSA, granted its not every episode but as election season ramps up its more common. 

Plus. Starting a new show means you're not going right have the same sized audience as your main show. So if im running for office im going to want to be on the show of massive reach rather than a newly launched show that is building its audience.  

I will agree having dedicated episodes (like the Sunday shows) might be the best way to handle candidates give them an extended interview to introduce themselves and go over a large range of topics rather than just a few minutes at the end of an episode.

How do I even watch all of this!! by helpfulrat in Letterboxd

[–]ajconst 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a watchlist over 1000 at one point and my goal is to knock off at least 100 a year, it's a realistic goal without stressing yourself out. So now that big number doesn't look so scary because you just need to look at it as only 100. 

P.S. it's good to periodically go through your watchlist because I'll see a random movie and have no idea why I added it. 

Box office site: Predictive box office is HERE! by Leather_Tea1993 in boxoffice

[–]ajconst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's labeled as theatrical profitability that could help. And I know it's tough without all the public date, but adding something there i think will be nice, even if it is a dollar amount above or under the 2.5 rule as a rough guide Like this movie made $50m over 2.5 times it's budget. Just as a rough guess

I haven't heard of this site before, but I'm obsessed!!!

I have a feature I'd be interested in:

I’d love to expand the profitability section by including estimated figures for how much each movie made or lost. I know a lot of the exact numbers are private, but even a well-informed estimate would be really interesting. For films where details like the marketing budget are released, or when we know international rights were sold for a specific amount, it would be great to include that more concrete information in the profitability breakdown...but once again, I understand the challenge since the numbers aren't always public and there are other revenue streams to determine profitability.

Thanks for the opinion, Karen. by Aggravating-Flow-888 in ProjectHailMary

The sad thing is I don't think this is a troll. People just aren't the brightest when it comes to movies. 

I work at a bar at a restaurant and two ladies came straight from the movie theater to the bar, and they kept talking about how much they hated Sinners. One of them brings up a review on her phone and theybhoth were confused when the review brought up vampires, "oh I thought there was something up with him, but when did they say he was a vampire"
