    I watched it. It’s weird. But in a fun way? Idk it feels like they have a bunch of burnt out millennials the keys to Rodger Rabbit and they went ham.

      Jessica Rabbit: Did you really proposition Eddie to join the polycule?

      Rodger Rabbit: uhh, so that happened!

        Less that aspect of millennial culture and more “everything is a remake based on exploiting our nostalgia and also we are irony poisoned to the point of concern.”

          The funny thing is that you're supposed to believe he's 2D, there's an entire joke about how the other one's had "CGI surgery" done on him

          Modern Disney can't even do 80s TV animation quality 2D animation

        Wait, how? The Sonic movie is from Paramount, who have a competing streaming service.

            Well, that was actual Sonic, not Ugly Sonic, so probably has nothing to do with Paramount.

            (I also know there were a bunch of non-Disney properties in Who Framed Roger Rabbit, but WB had strict rules, for instance, Mickey Mouse and Bugs Bunny had to have the same amount of lines and the same amount of screen time, and a representative measured it down to the millisecond. Also, it seems like the big studios are somehow even more protective with their IP now.)

          The hell of I know. Sony owns stake in the characters screen time still they must have given the go ahead.

          It’s a fucking crazy movie. Feels like it shouldn’t have been made in th current Disney cesspool

    I literally can't believe there is anyone on this Earth willing to pay money for Disney Plus or AMC Plus or Amazon Prime Video or any of the other multitude of streaming services other than Netflix. When it was just Netflix maybe it was worth it for convenience's sake and sharing accounts, but all of this? Why would anyone in their right mind not just pirate everything?

    What makes me even more confused are the people who say they really want to watch a show on one of these services but don't because they don't want to pay for any of them. Whenever someone tells me that I just get genuinely confused until I realize they have some kind of moral problem with pirating. Then I get extremely pissed off that so many people have been duped into thinking that art itself wouldn't exist if everyone pirated everything.

      Whenever I look into it, it seems like work.

      I'd rather just play video games at that point :shrug-outta-hecks:

        What seems like work? Pirating?

        For me it's as easy as installing qBittorrent, finding whatever movie/show or game I want on rargb or skidrowreloaded respectively, and clicking download. That simple. Actually, you don't even need qBittorent for games, those are direct downloads.

        If you don't want your ISP finding out about your torrenting you pay for a VPN service. Personally I don't because I don't torrent extremely popular tv shows/movies often enough to get their attention. Sometimes, very rarely, I get a letter from the ISP threatening to shut my internet off, but they never follow through.

    It didn't start with Patton Oswalt and Ratatouille, it's been chiseled into the Hollywood Commandments that if your animated film has animals as the main characters, they must be voiced by pasty white guys with NPR-nasal voices.

            I once thought Uncyclopedia was funny, but re-reading it, it's actually pretty cringe. Even when I was an edgy teenager, I thought ED was trying too hard.

            Yeah same, but I found myself drawn in. What freaked me out most were images and clips that I haven't found anywhere else and I'm not going into detail about them. I never did manage to reach the bottom of their "offended" page.

              There was a weird allure in learning about taboo subjects and just being blasted in the face by the worst aspects and darkest impulses of humanity. It was the closest you could get to Lovecraftian forbidden knowledge as a bored teenager

              In some ways I can understand why young people are still flocking to places like 4chan

                I had a friend who frequented 4chan and he called me in one time to show off an entire thread of child porn he found. It was just an endless scroll of it and I couldn't help but wonder why he was even there in the first place.

                  I also had a friend who spent a lot of time on /b/ who would tell me he regularly came across things like child porn and snuff videos on there. While he was aware that seeing that shit was fucking him up psychologically at the same time it was like he felt being able to stomach it made him a stronger person or something

    This is why pirating exists. If you want to watch something and don't want to support those distributing it then torrent it. You'll never have to feel bad about watching shit again.
