I can’t see capeshit having any more mainstream appeal aside from the occasional spider/bat/superman reboot. The MCU had lightning in a bottle but killed it with oversaturation and not having any kind of followup to the Thanos run. They’ve mined any nostalgic arcs the fanbase cared about and any attempts past Thanos have failed to launch.

the Battlegrounds and Five Nights movies are probably signs of a market shift. Hello Fortnite, Minecraft, and Roblox flicks!

e: Hell if the poo poo my nephews watch on YouTube is any indication gently caress moopies, just have some idiot yell and make noises in disconnected 5 second skits.

I think the big misstep of the MCU was having any kind of definitive ending at all. it gave people an out to stop caring about the endless deluge. then covid killed theaters for a bit and it really became a past era of the zeitgeist in audiences' minds. instead of giving people a satisfying conclusion, they should have strung everyone along with nonsense for another decade and a half

I was tired of the MCU long before Infinity War/Endgame and the promise of a conclusion to the series was the only thing that kept me watching these movies as long as I did.

The only mistake was trying to keep it going afterward. At least without taking a break. Letting things end is good.

Or, conversely, they milked it perfectly, Covid wiped the slate clean, now they are just paying bills and keeping people employed. Still making movies some people enjoy, just not as many people.

Not everything has to be at the top of the charts, does it?

Mike and Jay sitting in a room in silence for 30 mins would be infinitely more entertaining than anything you’ve ever done. Everything about your videos from concept to execution, sucks. They are boring, unfunny and lazy.

Maybe you get a thrill over the boost of 10’s of views that you get, or you’re just madly in love with your own ugly burnout Joker mug, but just stop posting that poo poo here, this is not your personal thread.

im sorry, that was a mean thing for me to say. creativity is hard for everybody, much less taking that creativity and molding it into a performance. Though they may have a large team of people helping their productions, even when all the conditions are perfect, you are always one unflicked switch away from catastrophic failure. i try to cover my lack of production value by putting everything into my performance, but putting everything into things too often can lead to burnout and depression, especially all by myself, so its a wicked line i walk.

i try to imagine the nicest person in the world, and the first thing that pops in my head is my girlfriend, however it really should be somebody impartial for the purposes of this exercise, so I think of Mr Joe Pera. I imagine of Joe Pera were watching a show about my life, would he think less of me if I did something, such as throwing shade at people ive never met about other people ive also never met, and I think of his sad face, disappointed that someone who was inspiring him could be so petty.

i dont want to make joe pera sad.

i wanna be awesome.

You don’t seem to have a single shred of self-awareness. But has it ever occurred to you that you only get one of two types of responses here? People either poo poo on your terrible videos directly or they ironically humor you for the trolling value.

There’s no point to posting your poo poo here. We are neither your fans nor your therapists.

Ok, shut the gently caress up about X JAKK. I get the annoyance at sometimes scrolling past a video of his but this is way, way past annoyance and in to indignant rage.

X JAKK, please also shut the gently caress up yourself about your channel. posting it obviously makes the thread worse in ways even rivaling star wars. your replies have sucked rear end and made it worse. posting any more from here about it will get you probed a bunch.

has anyone else had that feeling of realizing something you believed was actually based in nothing but cultural osmosis? and that this fundamental assumption you made (or were incepted with) about the world just utterly crumbled once you applied a modicum of scrutiny?

I've recently watched a.i. artificial intelligence, the talented mr ripley, existenz, and contagion, and having done so, I have to reckon with the fact that jude law is not a good actor. I'm utterly thrown here

Going from one controversial topic to another I see…

Some DS9 fans really love the Vic Fontaine shenanigans episodes. But I’m firmly in the camp of wishing that Star Trek never introduced the holodeck, it’s a lazy excuse to interject C-tier period drama plots into a sci-fi show just to fill airtime and re-use sets/costumes from other productions.
