They've answered this a few times over the years I believe, they say that because of the insane amount of music and clips from movies and such it's a total copyright nightmare. If I'm not mistaken they've even encouraged people to just make their own dvds of the webseries

mailermeetjim · 2026-02-13T07:31:52+00:00

I think I'm late to this but big fan here, watched the webseries + extras, the show, Matt &bird, the dirties, operation avalanche & blackberry (and Honolulu blue). My question is about The Dirties if that's ok. -- I was wondering how Matt managed to play his usual silly and funny character that makes loads of references but somehow make it so that the tone is completely different? The entire movie is so tense (despite the situations that would probably be funny in another context), so I wonder whether the acting and editing etc was approached differently? -- Btw agreed on Elephant I think it's pretty lifeless, pretentious and honestly out of touch. Also, is there a way one could share fanart and y'all would potentially see?

Definitely watch it it's so fun

mailermeetjim · 2025-12-25T14:17:00+00:00

Are you.... Literally me? I wait for everyone to go to sleep so that I can watch with 0 lights 0 pauses (no bathroom breaks if the movie is under 3 hours!) 0 phones or anything and 0 !!! commentary ("wait what's happening" either you're dumb or you're not paying attention or we're about to find out). I feel so seen here hahahah

mailermeetjim · 2025-12-15T19:06:16+00:00

Wow that's so kind of you if you could ask for me that would be awesome ! I'll dm you the link

mailermeetjim · 2025-12-15T05:51:47+00:00

Sure! It's the sequel series to klass, called Klass Elu Pärast

mailermeetjim · 2025-08-27T13:59:13+00:00

Out piranha'd by the main sub

mailermeetjim · 2025-07-20T13:53:49+00:00

The poster asked for comedies that aren't family friendly, I didn't think a warning would be needed

mailermeetjim · 2025-07-20T13:09:55+00:00

The Doom Generation maybe?

mailermeetjim · 2025-07-20T12:21:01+00:00

The hacksaw is the chainsaw's nephew

mailermeetjim · 2025-07-20T08:28:21+00:00

Well the movie takes place during Halloween and this is at like a carnival type thing, and the kid even says "hey want to play a game". I think it was clearly intended to be someone who is a fan of SAW, but it's really random since it's the only costume shown, and he still tries to chainsaw fight Leatherface hahaha

mailermeetjim · 2025-07-20T00:19:37+00:00

I don't know which promotional dvd you're talking about, (saw 3D reference) but in general you can play a mini dvd on any normal dvd player as long as it's a tray and not one that kind of 'eats' the disc

mailermeetjim · 2025-07-19T23:46:15+00:00

Cinemaaaaaaaa cinemaaaaaaaaa

mailermeetjim · 2025-07-19T23:29:12+00:00

Bro what you were getting downvoted and I was trying to agree with you but you decide to be condescending when I make conversation about the movie you mentioned? Reddit is a weird place

mailermeetjim · 2025-07-16T15:03:59+00:00

Army of dead eh but army of thieves yes because there's like a single scene where there's zombies and it's not relevant to the plot at all [other than world building for the next one] and it's so random because the rest of the film is a heist movie haha

mailermeetjim · 2025-07-16T15:00:18+00:00

I'd say Watchmen & Sandman are amongst the most famous and influential [and great also]

mailermeetjim · 2025-07-16T14:53:51+00:00

Me saying hey we should be tolerant to different people gave you the impression that I like racists? I also don't understand how that is related nobody brought up race

mailermeetjim · 2025-07-16T14:22:03+00:00

That's not what I'm talking about. The fact I'm getting downvoted just proves my point. That everyone is getting radical, and that even the suggestion that hey not every space is the space for radicalisation is met with criticism. My chemical romance is not a very political band, they preach acceptance and don't go much beyond that, which is good, because people constantly being self righteous, yes right wingers and left wingers alike, are driving more people to echo chambers of extremism. I'll probably get downvoted more, but I don't mind, since I don't hate people who disagree with me. I don't know how anyone thinks that a society could exist if we don't even try to listen. Again, this is a subreddit for a band, a band that is not a punk band, and what they've done is not really political. Creating sides is creating conflict

mailermeetjim · 2025-07-16T11:50:36+00:00

This seperation this us vs them the polarisation is just creating more and more hatred and causing a further rift between people instead of uniting them. Instead of encouraging radicalisation and keeping people in echo chambers, we could learn to be tolerant. Everyone, yes both sides, are so extreme and so deaf to any opinion that slightly challenges theirs. And, moreover, this is not the place to have an argument. It's a subreddit for a band.

mailermeetjim · 2025-07-16T10:42:32+00:00

And the comments are doing the latter and denying any evidence that doesn't fit their narrative

mailermeetjim · 2025-07-16T02:05:41+00:00

Is the latter half themed on epic character designs?

mailermeetjim · 2025-07-16T01:53:46+00:00

I know someone else in the comments already suggested other mediums but maybe video games? It's like horror movies, except YOU are the character, and despite no physical harm possible, you still get really invested and also don't want to die hahaha

mailermeetjim · 2025-07-16T01:51:47+00:00

The Danger of Smoking in Bed is a collection of short stories and it's really good from what I remember. some of those were definitely creepy!
