  1. Ted Cruz! On the bones of my ancestors, this movie is going to make a billion dollars. ‘Calling it now.
  2. Brian DePalma rewrote the opening crawl a little. It’s not unusual to make a few people redundant in an acquisition like that.
  3. Except those early, “generous” reviews remain a part of the aggregate forever. And yeah, access definitely influences things. Herd mentality as well. I’d bet dollars to doughnuts, any film with an aggregate more than say, 100 reviews, there are probably a few “critics” who never even saw the film.
  4. Oh, I check it; I just look at it with a jaundiced eye. Gotta keep a finger on the pulse normie. I’m assuming those critics are just being contrarian or their score reflects their displeasure at not being invited to a press screening or IMAX premiere.
  5. Who are the two critics that gave it a negative review?
  6. Tell them Iron Man is in it. Barbenheimer. It’s a phenomenon.
  7. Is Florence Pugh in this? She’s been in a lot lately. ‘Asking for a friend.
  8. I’m not sure which one I saw, but I remember thinking that movie got way too much hate. It’s not great, but it’s not as bad as people went on about. It’s certainly as good as other capeshit that met with relative critical acclaim.
  9. This time next week, male, forty-something YouTubers and Twitter clowns will be raging about a Barbie movie that’s “feminist” and “woke” and ignores the source material. i fucking can’t wait. ETA: And and, Ken is an “emasculated dumbass” who just makes Barbie look good.
  10. This whole thing just looks bad for him from top to bottom. The cringe sink stunt; alienating thousands of tech people; paying for check marks; the Desantis campaign launch; a low percentage lawsuit about a trivial amount of money (in the scheme of things) against the law firm that muscled him into buying the thing; now the ad revenue thing. It’s all incredibly bumbling and weak.
  11. I want to see this now. ETA: so are we going to see an epidemic of people endlessly screaming in the streets after the Barbenhiemer double header? Will they need to be trank’d like rogue circus elephants?
  12. Hold on. Musk’s lawsuit is for how much? Why even bother?
  13. Madness. Hey, those are my favorite seats. They also happen to be the seats that get sold last.
  14. This Barbenheimer crapola is getting out of control.
  15. Hey don’t get me wrong; if Tony Stark gets them in the door I’m all for it. Cinema, Mellon Farmer.
  16. Actually, they were thanking me. Honestly, I think the only reason they’re interested in Oppenheimer is because Iron Man is in it.
  17. Yeah, seeing that film in a theatre back in 2007 was pretty cool actually. I think Bay was being much more clever and a hell of a lot more cynical in the later films than he was being given credit for. Not Verhoven levels of satire but still.
  18. Second season. Roman is away at school and he’s lonely.
  19. My teenage nieces and their whacky teenage friends are doing an Oppenheimer-Barbie double feature next weekend. That’s a thing the youths are actually doing these days.
