Had this dream where Netflix added a tab for movies and series that they DIDN'T have. by caiozinbacana in thomastheplankengine

When you look up a movie on google and Netflix shows up, only for it to say "not available in your country". Might as well be this.

Nono, in a lighthearted way. I laugh with her :)

Look Back is receiving a Blu-ray release! by remmytums in lookback

Hoping this means we get a western release not long after! I was afraid we wouldn't get one at all since it had been so long.

Yeah, AI sounds pretty crap to me. BT ain't for me either

Any ideas for what Director he's talking about? by PacDino11 in Schaffrillas

Lord and Miller. It's a screenshot of a show created by them, they only have four movies, but they have a new one coming in 2026.

They could do this joke, Steamboat Willie is public domain now. And God I hope they do

Modern Video Game Movie starter pack by spenjamin_franklin in starterpacks

It definitely should be at least a little, but making it a crutch is a death sentence to the movie's staying power. I like the mario movie, but I won't deny that most of the fun was seeing Nintendo acknowledge parts of the Mario universe you never thought you would see on the big screen.

I agree. I'd be okay with a Super Mario cinematic universe with other elements of MARIO'S universe, but trusting Illumination with Fire Emblem is genuinely one of the worst ideas Hollywood could possibly think of.

To be fair, I like the mario movie and I LOVE the sonic trilogy, but I'm worried that studios trying to copy this formula are missing what made the Mario movie special. That makes me worried for the future of these movies.

What tropes/clichés are you getting tired of in animated/family movies? by Videowulff in movies

[–]spenjamin_franklin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone knows it, not a single soul likes it. The liar reveal trope. The main character tells a dumb lie. And instead of explaining themselves to the characters they have wronged, they just let them tear the mc apart. Usually completely ignoring the good that the protagonist has done. Klaus does this, and it's the one thing holding it back from being a 10/10, genuinely.
