Inside Out was okay but has too many weird questions for me to like it. Zootopia is delightful but also hilarious when you think about it. There's a tiny town of tiny animals, how the hell do the police work with that? One rabbit as a cop becomes an all seeing eye of super government oversight because they can literally see the entire town standing in one spot and just crush anyone who dares oppose them.
What does the rodent mafia do when they need to knock over some establishment run by elephants? What weapons do they even take to that fight?
You mean the rodent mafia that had a bunch of gigantic polar bear enforcers?
I forgot about this. I also think I just assumed like the different places had their own currency. At least for the sake of convenience. Lil mouse can't go around with a wallet of elephant bux. But there has to be some common value if they're able to buy off polar bears.
I just want more of that world.

You don't like the original Star Wars trilogy. What did you think I forgot you agent provocateur
nobody likes the OT. they just pretend to like it because of nerd pressure or because they can't bear to let go of what they liked as children, wrapped in their own nostalgia like a kitten in yarn
in fact i believe nobody has even watched the OT in over ten years, they've just pretended to
back when we started dating porp made me watch the OT cuz id never seen it
I remember finding the story interesting but thinking a lot of the acting and dialogue being p cringey bad
I haven't gone back and re-watched it since, but that's true of just about every movie that isn't Houseguest or Uncle Buck or one of porp's rom-coms she loves (Enchanted, literally any Sandra Bullock Movie, Bridget Jones)
:whistle:
That's how you knooooooow.... he loves you...
:whistle:
i randomly sing that song at porp all the time
how does she know that you love her
how does she know that you need her
Alan Menken is really bad at explaining his own music. He sounds like someone who has burned out on crack or something (compare this to, say, Stephen Schwartz or Stephen Sondheim, who can tell you everything about the creative process that went into making a specific song). But boy, does he write catchy tunes. I watched all of Galavant because of him.

The tv marvel stuff has to do with the tv CEO hating the movie CEO.
Rogue One was pretty bad. I liked the robot. I felt nothing about the rest of the film, which was rushed and earned none of the pathos it tried to exploit in its ending. I almost agree with Ludious but the prequel trilogy is pretty hilariously bad
The whole you're beautiful because you're so in love is seriously the most gag worthy line ever uttered in a major motion picture.

I watched the OT for the first time when I was 18ish. I enjoyed it, but what I didn't get is how those films inspired the EU and the obsession over the films that followed in that series. Of all the cinema in the world, how is it that series that generates such an obsession? If I internalized that more clearly I would not have been blindsided later as an entire degenerate culture developed around trailers and teaser shots of Marvel's universe.

It's not the worst film with Star Wars in the title but it's the worst "Star Wars" film. I stand unmoved
I don't even understand what this means
Movie franchises have certain expectations.
Like, if you hear that there's a Fast and Furious movie, you know it's going to be about a bunch of rogues committing crimes and driving around in fast cars, even if you don't know anything specific about that specific iteration.
Or if you watch a James Bond movie, you know it's going to be about a charming narcissist of a spy.
Lud is saying that Rogue One didn't fit the expectations you expect of a Star Wars movie. It wasn't bad, but it poorly fit the Star Wars style.

Seriously. It's an executive pissing contest.
I think this is the worst part of the MCU. Fucking get over yourselves and put the Agents of Shield people in some movies and put some movie people in the show! Everyone wants this except the annoying executives for some reason! edit: And stop calling the Hulk "The big green guy"!

I'm curious what you liked about Dr Strange, Feral
aside from the obvious, which is that it's extremely beautiful and technically impressive in many scenes, and Mads Mikkelsen's speech about how death is an insult makes him a tragic protagonist who should be admired

Rogue One is the best Star Wars movie after ESB.
TFA is somwhere infront of the Prequels thanks to the actors.
TFA had a worse script than most prequels, except clone wars which I can't remember a single scene about.

rogue one is a rote series of events that banks almost entirely on structure and imagery with no characterization and paper thin plot
the prequels are disasters, but at least they fuckin' tried
rogue one farted out the laziest bullshit and slathered it in enough nostalgia to choke patton oswalt and kevin smith if they were mouth-to-mouthing a double-ender
i don't hate rogue one
but "i felt cold and emotionless" accurately describes what watching it made me feel
I dunno, I really wasn't expecting the ending
either everyone to die or the film to literally run into the beginning of episode 4
I won't really give the prequels much credit for trying either because I feel like Lucas wasn't really trying, I don't get any passion or caring from those train wrecks like I do for something like Jupiter Ascending - where I feel the Wachowskis legitimately were trying to do something interesting even if it was a complete mess
but I can see why you wouldn't like Rogue One, even if it does work for me
tbh the fact that the former of your two spoilers was very, very predictable to me watching the film was a huge detractor
it made the whole film joyless for me, even though i wasn't spoiled on the ending, i realized it like, less than a third of the way into the film, and i realized that's why a lot of other things were happening (like how nobody became three dimensional characters at any point)
so i just... stopped giving a shit. it was all hurtling towards an inevitable conclusion and it made the film feel really... pointless?
it was like the answer to a question i didn't ever find myself asking, although to be fair lots of other people asked that question over the years so there's clearly a market for the answer
(being real i didn't see the second part of your spoiler coming and was like "oh that's interesting", probably the only part of the film i thought so about)

They have a crazy state-managed economy where commodities are valued based on your species and the opportunities for criminal arbitrage are endless.

Visually, sure. I always enjoy watching but I never come back to them.
i disagree. Toy Story, Toy Story 3, The Incredibles, Finding Nemo, Monsters Inc and Up are all great movies
Those are all the ones I went back to watch a second time.
And my reaction about partway through was always "why am I watching this?"

I like Rogue One. It has problems, certainly, but it's a good film and CERTAINLY better than the prequels.
