Cannibal Llama posted:So like, were all these news outlets supposedly claiming that the Joker would lead to mass shootings actually real or was it like maybe one talking head on twitter comparing the joker to mass shooters or what and then places like this thread ran with it and started a meme about " crazy liberal media claims the Joker will lead to shootings". Because I don't remember this moral panic at all. Seems more like a moral panic about a fake moral panic if you ask me SMH.

Like, typing in "joker 2019 mass shooting" got me articles from Reuters, the failing NY times, USA today, sky News, and a bunch of other outlets. That was just the first page of results. And one thing I want you to know, is the guy calling you dumb right now, is so stupid he liked the Todd Phillips Joker movie. That's how dumb your smarmy post was you crayon eater.

Usu Kai Ken posted:I hope Morbius 2 happens. It’s gonna be garbage again and lose money for Sony or it’s gonna embrace the memes and be a funny-bad schlock fest. Either way, we win and Jared Leto embarrasses himself. Funny-bad only works when the people involved are genuinely trying and are just incompetent.

Pham Nuwen posted:How about this, top result for "joker 2019 fears of mass shootings": Thank you. I'll take the L and admit that this does resemble what everyone was saying in this thread that the media was making claims of possible mass shootings inspired by the Joker. Though this article was mostly about relatives of those who were killed in mass shootings fearing people being inspired by the movie which still feels a tad different from the claims in the thread that the media was itself openly concern trolling about mass shooters being inspired by the movie. Still I'll admit I was wrong.

Still I'll admit I was wrong. news stories are almost never presented as "we the media think this" but they're still choosing what narratives to amplify it's not like they had no choice but to gather joker opinion quotes from relatives of shooting victims and write an article about it

Murdstone posted:You don't make funny-bad intentionally. If you try it comes out boring. There are few, if any, exceptions to this. This is Sony we’re talking about. The studio behind Ghostbusters and Emoji Movie. You think they understand human concepts like irony? What I’m saying is that there’s a very high chance that we’re getting an unironic “it’s Morbin’ time.” Like they’re not gonna try to make a funny-bad movie. They’re gonna try to make a MCU style quippy movie with a vampire with butthole palms. Usu Kai Ken fucked around with this message at 02:40 on Jun 9, 2022 |

I watched Lord of the Flies (1990) (Mild spoilers follow) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mmuCoPw5uZI "events take place every day on our mean streets that are more horrifying than anything the little monsters do to one another on Golding's island" -Roger Ebert This movie features some very good and necessary fixes to the book, adding more poetic lines such as: "I bet it's really around 8 o'clock, and ALF is causing some trouble... right now..." *looks wistfully into the distance* or "His name's not SHITBRAIN, it's PIGGY" or "Major Dingledine, my new dad, said if the russians invaded the US, they would take the kids and separate them from their parents, and they might make us compete in the Olympics or something like that" Further enhancements are the addition of a character/corpse named CAPTAIN BENSON, a poignant scene where they find an accordion floating in the sea and pretend to play it... Also trims some of the fat from the book, such as assembly proceedings, or Simon's dialogue that gives name to the book You know, just updating the book for the modern 90's, correcting the obvious stuff that William Golding missed in his original work but is thankfully now fixed in order to preserve this film's place in history Classic stuff So uhh yeah, not much to say here. It looks like a made for TV movie, was this ever in theaters? I suppose it has some nice vistas of the island, but curiously suffers the same problem as the 1963 version where some scenes are shot with very limited camera angles when they're supposed to have a whole island to look at. Monty Python angles when looking up at kids guarding a spot. Anyway, I award this book adaptation 1.5 Comfys, and a half-full serving of Lord of the Fries sweet potatoes with Belgian sauce

the most important thing about morbius isn't even that it's a bad movie that's immaterial of the very few people that have even seen it, none of what they've reported has managed to stick except that there might be a scene of a guy getting ready set to a song that's like "sex poop fart fart fart sex poo" or something even just making fun of its actual failures as a film is kind of missing the gag its only value is that nobody has seen it and nobody cares to

listen we will even all buy a big popcorn and a soda when we see Morbius! here, look: I'm posting a meme of the film for no money to thousands of followers. I know that looks great to the algorithm. we just need you to redub the audio of the film so Dr. Michael Morbius now has a cockney accent.

i think it is really cool that the writers were able to come up with a wholly original catchphrase like that. “its morbin’ time!” brilliant “and the Oscar goes to…the morbius writers “ *thunderous 20 minute applause*

I haven't seen the new Joker because I haven't heard anyone in this thread recommend it. Actually I haven't seen any comic movie since Endgame that try to be good. I still watch the campy bad ones like Venom or Captain John Cena (whatever his name is). I made the mistake of watching the early D+ shows I thought those shows were bad investment of my time. stephenthinkpad fucked around with this message at 03:56 on Jun 9, 2022 |

Watching the new Kenobi and  the main bad guy lady is interrogating this 4-year-old about Jedi smuggling like she's a cop trying to break a criminal.It's like the bad guy lady lost the plot too. You're just using Leia as bait to get Kenobi why are you suddenly so worried about safehouse?

I had to make some gifs Here, Obi-wan's compatriot is being taken away for interrogation and escapes by doing a 3 Stooges routine with the stormtroopers  The base is now on high alert for Obi-wan and Leia. How will they escape? By putting on a giant coat and putting Leia inside it of course! I can't tell if this was supposed to be comedic. I mean I know it looks like they're trying to be funny but the music and actors treated this as if it's a real thing and it almost works so
