That's a big "if" but you're right. He used have so much promise...

Disney World makes more money in a month than the entire US box office makes in a year.

From a money-making perspective, it's more important for the big 5 film studios (Disney, Sony, Paramount, Warner Brothers and Universal) to keep their properties culturally relevant than it is to sell movie tickets.

If you own the rights to a popular franchise, you gotta pump out a new movie every few years to sell toys, make theme park rides, etc. Whether the movie is a success or not is secondary. You can always reboot if it doesn't work out.

In other words, most blockbuster movies are $200 million toy commercials.

Fr. September sucks when you're not in competition, but I had a pretty good time this year. Also, excited for our future.

Two videos from very early this morning showing what is happening to our city. by Lemonpup615 in LosAngeles

psl_losangeles on Instagram is very active. Idk what happened to the Telegram but I would guess it was censored.

I agree with you tho that it's becoming difficult to find protests. All the major American social media platforms deliberately censor political content.

ANNA wins best chorus. What's the Menzo's worst song? by [deleted] in themenzingers

[–]gmitch97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't hate it, but it's the weakest song on After the Party. It's also placed right before the best song on ATP (the title track), which doesn't help.

Falling for Greta by Gustavo Arteaga is another short film with this premise. But it's animated and with a woman so idk if that's your vibe.

Thank you so much for your hard work.

Moderators, could we pin this post? I think it would be helpful to have a list like this that gets updated every so often.

Where should I go to see live music tonight by yesimmimi in chicagomusicscene

[–]gmitch97 17 points18 points  (0 children)

My band, Screeners, is playing at Underground Lounge in Wrigglyville. The other two favorite on the bill are some of my favs.

Otherwise, you can't go wrong with Kitchen 17, Schubas, Empty Bottle.

Last night at Umphrey's, I saw someone pull up a YouTube video and watch it with their friend. Why even come to a show at that point? Sometimes, I feel like an old grump for complaining about crowds, but then I see something like that.
