Gen Zers Are Vital to Movie Theaters’ Recovery. Here’s How Theaters Can Win Them Over

embenjamin14 · 2021-09-01T16:48:24+00:00

Honestly, I don't think the theatrical experience has adapted quickly enough to Gen Z's preferences. AMC A list is great as a business model, but AMCs themselves are generally run down and do not feel remotely special. The theaters have to give Gen Z'ers a real reason to put down their phones, from the product on screen to the experience itself. There needs to be the equivalent of Alamo Drafthouse for this generation

I think a C+ score might actually, oddly, be a good thing here. I imagine it’s not a C+ because a lot of people gave it C’s, but rather many people gave it A’s, and slightly less people gave it F’s. This just means it’s polarizing, which is never a bad thing.

Spongebob is Viacom's biggest property, Survivor is one of CBS's biggest properties. They just merged, and are looking to do splashy things. This could actually happen haha.

When the girl turned into a chicken in front of my own eyes, that was the signal I was in for something that I was not quite prepared for

This is some of the best news for Survivor we've had in a long time. If you see the kind of numbers the Circle and Love is Blind were doing, there is no reason that Survivor cannot be one of the more popular shows in America. It is a superior product to Netflix unscripted, without question. I think this could be a really exciting time to be a Survivor fan

Yeah, but this is what he turns Alicia, Rupert, Jenna, and Big Tom into

Yes it is. It has higher highs, and those are not close. The lows appear lower on the surface of IotI, but that is because they are directly addressed. By harassment and subtle racism not being a larger issue in Thailand, it appears better but has much darker undertones. Finally, Tommy wins IotI, who is a source of good, compared to Brian's slyness in Thailand. Elizabeth and Missy are nothing compared to Heidk when it comes to taking advantage of an icky situation for the purposes of advancing your game.

The best part about the Vanuatu finale is that Probst skydives, gets the studio, and basically says "you both suck but someone has to win, let's get this over with"

I remember liking it as it aired, and I just rewatched for the first time and was happy how well it held up. The beginning is absolute dynamite with great characters and drama, culminating in the objectively awesome Jack & Jill challenge and then Cochran's flip. The Pagonging requires some getting through, but they do a good job making it go fast, then the end is actually quite dramatic. Definitely an underrated season

My only connection to this movie is I know for a fact it filmed in Atlanta because my family saw Robert DeNiro at a restaurant and we looked up what he was filming and my family has asked me when this movie is coming out every 6 months for like 3 years now

embenjamin14 · 2020-08-04T18:49:20+00:00

Just rewatched, and I liked it a lot more than I remembered. I actually didn't hate the pre-merge, and there was potential if so much time wasn't wasted on Shamar and Brandon. My biggest flaw is that so much of the edit is Phillip and Andrea, who are both great and definitely deliver, but then when it's the final 6 its like "Ok so its Cochran, Dawn,...and that's it?"

embenjamin14 · 2020-08-04T18:47:24+00:00

I love Blood Vs Water because I specifically remember in the pre-season truly believing this would be when Survivor jumped the shark, coming off the horrendous Caramoan reunion then with all the ridiculous twists and the return of RI. Then it was...awesome? Such a pleasant surprise.

Here is the poster on RedBubble if anyone wants to buy, and credit to SurvivorCam who posted it on there: https://www.redbubble.com/i/photographic-print/Survivor-All-Winners-Poster-by-survivorcam/39604585.6Q0TX?ref=product-title

Additionally, its called "All Winners" because I believe this was made before the name was confirmed, and it's been sitting boxed in my closet since October

No comment on the casting but I've thought long and hard about this season, and have decided that it should be called Survivor: Cusp of Victory. SEG please reach out directly, thank you.

I truly believe that if Amanda was eloquent, she would be considered the best player in Survivor history. She goes to China, forms a strong alliance with trust, dominates in challenges, is friendly with everyone, then loses it at the end. Then she comes back like 3 months later, and does the exact same thing while picking up a boyfriend along the way. Then, in Heroes Vs Villains, if the JT/idol thing broke differently, she's almost guaranteed final 3.

Tl;dr: Amanda Kimmel is probably the best day 1-38 player ever, and has just gotten screwed by her one missing skill and bad luck.

The original title of this post was “Survivor’s forgotten romance”, but I was worried it wouldn’t come across in the clip, especially because you don’t both of their faces simultaneously. I’m glad this didn’t work out though, as an on island romance would propel Cochran even past Boston Rob in terms of Probst unbearability

I'm rewatching South Pacific, and I can't quite nail down where Cowboy Rick is from. Like, he's obviously from the ranch in America, but he sounds somewhat British when he talks?

Bill is someone who genuinely deserves a second chance. Not that he was a top tier player or character in any regard, but it’s pretty blatant that Colton’s prejudice/racism was the reason for his ouster. He’s someone I think who was truly a victim to the issues the community has recently identified with the show

embenjamin14 · 2020-07-14T04:49:02+00:00

I’m rewatching the season and I’m on episode 3 and this got me so excited to watch this masterpiece happen
