Went on a first date to see United 93 lol

 

The one I remember most is the live action cat in the hat because we left halfway through it. I think my first was the italian job.

 

while you all were going on dates, i was playing my guitar in my mom's garage. haha.

 

I remember one of my firsts was Thor: The Dark World. Such a trash movie

 

I did go to the movies a lot in high school but not on dates

 

What lol

 

Absolutely not

 

Of all the rogen outputs to get a sequel

 

that’s what I would do between dates

 

Quantum of Solace and The Mummy 3.

 

I think 1408 was my first movie date lol.

22 Jump Street was my first date with my fiance

 

Little black book

 

So they used to all be friends and do drugs together and then after River and Chris died he’s held some sort of grudge against Keanu? For…what reason exactly?

 

wxcept swap it out to say “general politics X” but when they click on any random page the first post they see is “dude what do you’ve mean you eat pizza with a fork”

edit: oops meant to post this in gelpol but fuck it I’ll leave it here too

 

The Weatherman and Spider-Man 3.

 

Freddy Got Fingered

he wasnt the only one

 

“Baby, would YOU like some sausage?”

 

Just read a bunch of 1 star reviews of Barbarian on Letterboxd “for fun” and it’s so funny/annoying how pretentious people can be in their movie reviews. Ughhhh.

 

Now I’m imagining that Hot Ones has been filmed out of the Criterion office this whole time

 

I guess Disney didn't pay attention to how well Spider verse did

 

He is right that Disney animated films are for children.

 

They can both be right. Animation is indeed its own fully-fledged medium, but the CEO is likely correct (I’m not going to bother trying to find stats) that most adults will gravitate towards live action entertainment. We don’t need to gin up controversy over everything.

 

As animation grows its demographic grows. More adults are watching animation today than were 20 years ago and in just another 5-10 years I bet that number grows. Think about the animation landscape when the Simpsons premiered in 1989, vs when Family Guy and South Park premiered, vs today. How much animated Star Wars content do adult fans consume?

In the specific context of parents, yeah they probably aren’t booting up Tangled after they put the kids to bed, but the way execs talk about art always betrays how limited their view of art is, which is always concerning when they’re in charge of producing art.
