assigned seats are the greatest invention in theater going. previously living next to a large college meant having to wait in line for an hour plus to get good seats at any new hyped release. Now i buy my ticket snag center center seats and walk in during the previews. owns. recliners whip rear end too.

i would be down for a keanu romcom where the normal end of act 2 drama that pulls the burgeoning couple apart is that gangsters from keanus past have finally tracked him down, forcing him to reenter a world he thought he had put behind him long ago...

Oh dang. That actually looks good. And it actually looks good, considering it's a Matt Groening adjacent show.

I hope that it's as good as I think it is and stays that good for 6-10 season and then they quit (and never return).

It looks way worse than Futurama graphically, but I still dig it. "I'm elfo!" made me guffaw.

Add THE OLD GUARD to the pile with EXTRACTION, 6 UNDERGROUND, and SPENCER CONFIDENTIAL in the lexicon of Netflix action movies that look like a real movie, act like a real movie, but don't really feel like a real movie.

This is based on a comic series, which is really more about its own premise than a "plot" tbh so i'm curious as to how they will make it a 2 hour movie

So they have the power to travel back in time, are locked in a hopeless battle against aliens, and they use their time travel ability to...draft more soldiers from the past to toss into the meat grinder? Potentially removing them from the timeline where they may have done something in the war's present?

Am I missing something? Because this sounds like a really dumb premise for a movie.

As said above, there must be some twist, but I posit that they dont care about drafting past soldiers ruining the timeline because they are already in a timeline where humanity gets wiped out.

They know it's supposed to be a comedy, right?

Yea the vibe they are pushing with these trailers is pure nostalgia, ghostbusters is your treasured past by way of Field of Dreams. The ghostbuster movies are loving funny!!! They should be funny and irreverent but I mean most of the cast of this is like 12 year olds and they arent funny so are they going to depend on paul rudd to hard carry the humor???

I think I'd much rather see a significant tone shift like Aliens vs Alien.

I think something like this could work but I don't think the tone shift should be "we are nostalgic for the OG ghostbusters". And indeed Aliens is still "scary" even though its not quite as horror/suspense based by Alien.

Spike didn't fight in the titan war. Vicious did. Though they're the same age so the same critique applies. If you assume the war lasts for a year or 2 (or Vicious takes part in it) he'd have time to get out of the war by age 20, join up with the space yakuza and pal around with Spike for 4 years rising through the ranks. Then spike runs and meets up with Jet and the show takes place 3 years later.

All of this and the fact that it's just from an age when those kind of movies were possible. I feel like pre-internet movies had a lot more leeway. I'm totally describing this wrong and can't put my finger on it, but before the internet just created instant global knowledge, the idea of a ghost hunting movie - comedy aside - could just work better. People still shared ghost stories among friends and lore building was so literally word of mouth that everything felt.... plausible is the wrong word but.... well gently caress I don't know. I shouldn't have even started typing because I'm not certain exactly what I'm trying to say. I'm not saying the movie was realistic (lol) but that these kinds of movies just worked better before everyone was a know-it-all-constantly-online-cynical-rear end in a top hat? I don't know.

edit: jesus poo poo what a horrible page snipe

what you're describing is verisimilitude. Ghostbusters achieves verisimilitude because you can believe the events in the movie occurring in the place and time. The same thing happens with modern horror/slashers, they have to contend with phones / cameras being ubiquitous and informing being able to travel incredibly quickly.

Fair enough. Maybe the MCU's just burnt me out on multiverses.

well I mean thats the thing right? There are some concepts that are really fun, like multiverses, but most commercially available movies about multiverses are going to be somewhat limited due to their corporate created nature. That doesn't stop the concept from being fun and from people wanting movies about it, so when something comes along that is more creator driven and with a fun cast and the trailer bangs, you're gonna get a lot of hype on it.

who looks at michelle yeoh in what appears to be an authentic "very asian mom" role mixed with the mindbending antics of a multiverse and goes "Ughhhhhhhhhhhhhh spiderman already did this!!! boring!!" - you know its gonna have different vibes!
