Well I'm sorry if Disney/Pixar can't do new approaches and be more creative for once and not keep reusing their same formula and tropes (Pre-Climax argument and twist villain) for a new movie to the point I can predict the movies every move.
Imagine if it was and Popeye became a major Nintendo franchise and was in Smash.
Kung Fu Dragon. Now they're just stealing from Dreamworks.
No no, it’s about a girl who tries to find the last living dragon in a fantasy world full of king fu magic.Kung Fu Dragon. Now they're just stealing from Dreamworks.
You must hate 87% of movies then because that’s a very common storytelling practice.
Oh yeah, Raya and the Last Dragon looks like a winner for sure.
I mean to be fair though DC and Marvel have been stealing from each other for years. No one bats an eye.Kung Fu Dragon. Now they're just stealing from Dreamworks.
I'm well aware. I'm just asking Disney for once to use different tropes that other movies does and not rely on the same ones.
The restaurant, right? I love Chili's too. I like the chili and chili burger they have there.
I'm well aware and know every form of fiction has tropes (Only ones I have a problem are overused ones). I'm just asking Disney for once to use different tropes that other movies does and not rely on the same ones but obviously given their popularity and brand they're just too lazy to that their name alone draws them the money they need.
Me too, haven't been able to go in a while though. Last restaurant I went to was Red Robin's. Thinking about those places makes me really hungry.
Yeah, I just prefer the Shrek approach of satirizing their competition (that they had a falling out with) by ****ing with public domain versions of their IP and calling them a ruthless dictatorship. Ah, good times.
Wait..what?
I would say that Disney current status is mostly the result of the other companies failures. A lot of the issues in the entertainment industry is their lateness to catch up on trends and when they do, they do it poorly.I do find some of the Disney bashing that goes on here a little ironic considering that two of Nintendo's biggest mascots () take clear inspiration from major Disney properties. Nintendo wants to be the Disney of video games they know it.
Okay granted Disney is way bigger then Nintendo is and that gives them a lot more room for corruption within the company, and I agree with a lot of the company's big criticisms (such as screwing with copyright laws and having an effective monopoly over a huge chunk of the entertainment industry). But I also think some people here are a little unfair to them and aren't really looking at their movies through a critical lenses. There's way more to a movie then if it just "vaguely follows a general formula" or "has a poorly written twist villain".
Don't say that! You might spoil the potential ending unintentionally to all of us!
Shrek was pretty much supposed to be a not so subtle jab at Disney with all of the public domain fairytale characters, the villain looking a whole lot like then Disney president, Michael Eisner, said villain's kingdom being a whole lot like the Disney parks, and the very unDisney message and tone.
That makes alot of sense actually, lol. I don't know how I didn't notice that.
The story I read was that Katzenberg had a falling out with Disney's head and went to Dreamworks. The obvious example is of Farquaad (i.e., **** wad) and his ruling of the Disney-esque Duloc. And there's a heavy use of public domain characters that Disney used, and twisting them in someway (e.g., throwing the little mermaid to the sharks). It's been forever since I read those articles, so I'd have to fact check to be sure.
I will only accept a live action Shrek remake if they spend the whole movie ****ting on Disney remakes
Okay, now there's a live action remake I can get into.
No even better.
I prefer the Shrek versions of fairytale characters anyway tbh.
Michael the Spikester
That. Is. BRILLIANT! Someone get this man a contract!
My favorite meal to get there is the grilled chicken fajita. I also enjoy their big mouth bite cheeseburgers and quesadillas.
I wish, though I feel like Dreamworks has lost its edge. I dunno, I haven't seen their recent movies, so I could be wrong... I've just read a lot of how things took a turn around Shrek 3--rather than satirizing, they started to become what they were satirizing. It feels like there's a void in that area. Deadpool was the superhero example, but even that may be changed by Disney. Would just be nice to have that kind of large-scale counterbalance.
I see you have some awareness of Dead by Daylight judging by your naming of The Pig. A woman of culture.

Noted. I'll look into these.
Also, since it's NRS, I'd throw in Scorpion or maybe Mileena.
I wanted to add an MK character, but I didn't think any would fit. But now that you mention is, Mileena would work well.
