Is there a list of original movies slated for release out there? I just want to watch how to blow up a pipeline
This is so depressing
At least during the cold war, the US film industry was capable of producing creative movies
Disney should be nationalized and immediately shut down
Letting one company pull a 51% attack on media as a concept was a bad idea.
Obviously it's just a symptom of many much larger issues, but it's so depressing knowing that people will be lined up outside the theater to watch this trash.
When I am supreme leader, I will enact a progressive tax on movie franchise sequels with a multiple-decade cooldown period. Want to start a second trilogy for your stupid franchise? Sorry bucko, gonna have to wait 10 years if you don't want your profits taxed at 75%. Every year after that it will drop by 2.5%.
I think this is why Canada sets aside some tax dollars for the arts, so they actually produce media outside the lowest common denominator. When they accidentally produce a Nickleback or a Beiber, they push them south to the USA so everyone assumes they're our native trash.
Movie event of the year, i'm telling ya! I can't wait to see it in theaters!
You know what was weird was going to a theatre to watch, like, a drama. I remember doing it, I remember going with friends or family and then talking about it after. I guess it made sense when they a) made movies for grown ups and b) movies cost way less per ticket. I guess Oppenheimer and Dune are the most adult-y movies on there.
Also made sense when people had shitty tiny TVs at home and you still had to pay to buy/rent the movie
Going to see a movie in a Covid infested theater for 20$ if I don't get any snacks, or spending that 20$ to get some game on Steam, or just get real, real drunk?
These are for adults. Millennial nostalgia is an important profit center for pop culture media.
fun book written by a fascist sympathizer about how an industrial factory owner and literal slaver is good actually
Let’s fuuuucking goooo :lets-fucking-go:
:sicko-hexbear: :copious-amounts-of-coke:
How many of these are either;
Superhero movies
Based on existing properties
Owned by Disney
Surely that's, like, literally all but one or two of them
idk though, im not reddit enough to recognize any of these
Does the villains have somewhat similar powers and origin to the hero, do u think?
It's the heartwarming tale of a quartet of Liverpudlians who seek to assimilate your cultural and technological distinctiveness into their own collective hivemind.
can't imagine a future, can't get excited about preserving the ecologically disastrous status quo
It would be funnier if Cocaine Bear and Dune 2 weren't on the list.
Not great, but not awful. Barbie genuinely looks like it might be good. Other than that I'm looking forward to Dune, MI, John Wick.
The existence of a Kraven the hunter movie is so bleak, youve gone past the A list heroes, A list villians, B list side characters, and C list villians all the way to that.
Apparently they're going to try and reinvent the character
So he's going from a guy who kills animals with his bare hands and tries to kill Spider-Man because nobody likes Spider-Man to a environmental protector who fights poachers or something
If they make Kraven clearly in the right because he hunts a rich ghoul who wanted to kill a rhino or something that might be cool. But then they'll probably have to have Spider-cop stop him and save the billionaire's life which will suck.
It's interesting how these Sinister Six movies are trying to set up something that makes no sense
Venom isn't shown to be bad, Morbius isn't bad, even the Vulture wasn't anything more than a thief, Kraven isn't supposed to be a Great White Hunter anymore
Why would they team up to go after Spider-Man?
lol thats obviously what will happen, except they'll shoehorn some ultra evil shit in for no reason. He'll be like "I have to stab this bus full of kids, for the environment."
tbh, there will be a lot of great indie and international movies this year, but american slop sells...
and if im being honest, Barbie is gonna be pretty great. very excited for that. I am hesitantly interested in Evil Dead and Mission Impossible, but i know what I'm getting into with those.
I believe in Greta Gerwig.
I think MI will probably be good, the MI films are usually fun. And you get to see what new way Tom Cruise decided to put himself in danger.
I do kinda want to see Barbie, just because it seems like such a weird cultural product. Do they still sell Barbie's to kids? The last few times I heard about Barbie products they were all collector's issues like astronauts or a variety of pantsuit girlbosses.
Oh and I hope Oppenheimer isn't at all about the bomb and doesn't acknowledge that. Just a 3 hour movie about a guy leading a research institute and getting harassed by the FBI for allegedly being a communist (which based on public statements he probably was, he just didn't want to get arrested over it or some shit).
