Lol I do have a ng as well.

Anyone care if it says ng (no grade) or pg (page?)?

Meaning is there a preference?

PG should be a single page, NG for more than 1 page (coverless/etc).

The only way Disney will make any money, is if they copyright the billions of memes that will be generated from these pics.

Babylon Bee killed it.

Oppenheimer may be the most significant figure in applied sciences. There are 'more significant' figures overall, regarding religion and theoretical science, etc. I suppose the guy to supplant Oppenheimer will be the one who manages to accomplish nuclear fission as clean energy source. (Oppenheimer builds the largest man-made destroyer, the next guy builds the largest man-made creator.)

3.5, hopefully won't get any lower.

I'm already sick of losers whining about residuals.

the story is over 2 centuries old, and beloved; why is it only now, in our time, that it's "backward" as described by dinklage?  i'm going on record as saying the story is fine, it's certain segments of our snowflake society that is the problem.

The answer to most of your questions these days, is just 1 word: Postmodernism. People get bored and try to 'fix' things that aren't broken, which simply causes conflict. We don't have much real conflict anymore so people create their own problems instead.

I grew up on all of those Disney animated movies and cannot believe what a joke that studio has turned into.

I wouldn't trust YouTube videos.

Most easily-identifiable trimming I've seen in this sub.

The whataboutism isn't going to deflect Gunn's earned criticism, though. It's a pointless, trolling endeavor at this point.

For example, when I watch Legacy on Max in 2025, I won't be comparing it to Man of Steel; I will be criticizing it for its own individual shortcomings.

Have you been around for the last decade? DC is already hurt.  
 

Based on the enthusiasm of most (..ahem…..) DC fans, I would say Gunn is going to heal DC. 

Which previous DCEU creatives pestered people on a regular basis?

I usually go to movies for escapism not to be emotionally challenged or devastated.  

Possibly why I don't have any love for reality-based war TV/movies (other than Band of Brothers).

Since I don't really know anything about SAG/etc... Are all actors part of SAG?

Unfortunately,  AI is better at writing then many of the current writers are. While I support people getting paid fairly, I do not like the mandates on how many writers must be hired based on number of episodes,  and length of episodes.  This artificially setting for writer's room sizes that is not based on quality ultimately damages the product. Looking back, most of my favorite shows and movies have smaller writers rooms, which seems to lead to a more focused, and usually high quality product.

Currently in a phase of "too many cooks in the kitchen". If you don't need a prep chef, don't hire a prep chef.

Not unlike athletes in that regard.  The counter is, well, who should be getting the money?  The corporations/owners?  I think most people would say not.

I think that there's a lot of underappreciated creatives in the industry. VFX has been suffering because not enough time/money is invested in that process, for example. Justice League got rushed because executives wanted year-end bonuses; So those signing the checks clearly don't have their priorities straight with where the money goes.

Have you ever seen Rebels?

Not intentionally. What about it makes the trailer any better?

On 7/12/2023 at 9:06 AM, Buzzetta said:

Yeah, you're missing out.

Based on the trailer, I sincerely doubt it.

Eerie 1947 or bust.

Beautiful.

Actors generally put in good work, so I'd 'support' that strike, though I think that the top earners really get too much (kudos to their agents, I guess).

I'm not bothered by the sleeved outfit.
