so of course they pivot with joker 2 and say no this time it's an extravaganza, you won't believe the showmanship on display this time. we've got lady gaga, she's super famous for being entertaining. it's gonna be so fun.

it's a wise gambit to get away from the dangerous thing cos you just can't do that twice, everybody knows this is a lame duck even the stupids, but you COULD drag them back in on the promise of a spectacle with the faintest ghost of dangerous. the people you push away with that already think joker 1 was stupid as gently caress and won't be back, the people you gain are like, the casual audience looking for something to do because they are so boring they can't think of anything else. hey joker 2's out, lady gaga is in it, that's a normal and also kinda wild! thing to do. so, money.

The Borderlands trailer looks.... fine.

It's not like the game is a deep thinker.

They made this look just as annoying as the games, if not more so :chloe:

Pass!

You know what, gently caress it. It looks bad but probably fun. I enjoyed the first two games so why not. Based on the trailer it looks like they toned down Tiny Tina, and if there was one thing that needed to happen, it was that.

The Joker 2 stuff on the other hand sounds like it's an Onion headline.

which way to the MACHINES?
Borderlands looks very high budget and boring. Like the characters in the game have no real personality and the story is just background noise. Looks like it's just gonna be "remember this area from borderlands? Here it is, in movie form!!!"

People once believed that when a franchise dies, Hollywood carries it to the land of the dead. But sometimes, something so bad happens, like the Crow sequel with Edward Furlong, that a terrible sadness is carried with it and the franchise can't rest. Then sometimes, just sometimes, Hollywood can bring that franchise back to put the wrong things right.

this one is funny cos

i think it must have been engineered by the marketing team, because i think it hugely played into the big box office that movie did. this is a 'dangerous' movie in a world of safe movies - i mean it's a loving comic book movie so no, but they did it. they convinced a lot of people that this might be TRANSGRESSIVE to go see this movie cos there is a 0.0001% chance someone might get shot in your very screening, that's how crazy it is.

you're playing with fire there because america the country is loving stupid and maybe somebody actually WOULD get shot but you know what? that would only make it a legendary movie, profitable for decades.

watched beau travail at the alamo (1999 dir. claire denis)

I was expecting to love it tbh but I was bored to loving tears. the suspense was as tight as a wet noodle and the ending was dumb as hell. biggest disappointment of the year so far for me.

I like Monster Hunter and the Milla Jovovich Resident Evil movies, so I was basically the target demo for the Monster Hunter movie.

But then they made it a weird Isekai where Jovovich is a troop even though her being a troop has zero effect on the plot, and they decided the monster that should get the most screen time is the loving Nerscylla, literally the least iconic monster in the lineup, and the movie spends the first two acts in a cave, and they only get to something that feels Monster Huntery in the last act when it's clearly too late, and then the final fight is with a Rathalos and it's pretty lame, and there's some weird plot about this being a threat to both worlds, it's a loving Rathalos it's not a world threat, it's literally like the first big boss you fight, which is another huge mistake she should've fought the Rathalos early on and then reveal the big threat, especially if it's supposed to have some kind of world consequences, it really should have been an Elder Dragon, and not having Jovovich wear Kirin armor is basically the biggest own goal in cinematic history, how do you gently caress that up?

i sure hope somebody got fired over that blunder

this is just patently wrong

jenny is objectively funnier than mike, who is the 'funny guy' or RLM (except for rich who is the unintentional funny guy which has become intentional) but she's a vaguely attractive woman so she's out and sus and anyone who posted her is sus. i don't think she even posts anymore it's been a while.

if you're not 300lbs, jay, midwestern or an uncharismatic leech, it's unacceptable in this beautiful zone.

so people posted jenny 2 times. 10 times. and every time, the fans got more pissed off and hostile. there's no room for other youtubers in this middle aged mid western zone my friend. none. zero.
