No mods online anymore, so here I go.

I find the idea of adding horny stuff to trailers for stuff unrelated as a whole from that as a sign of desperation to get people to see movies because they don't know how to sell It.

I remember when I was a child, and the new Star Trek movie releasing was Into Darkness I think. I was more of a Star Wars kid, but I was always curious to someday see what Star Trek was like.

However, someone at the marketing team who thought to be big brain or something decided to add a scene to the trailers where one of the female characters was entirely on a bikini alone, and even 9 years old me looked at that and said "why are they putting this on a trailer for a Space movie? It isn't making me find the trailer better than any of the Star Wars ones".
Needless to say, I never watched the movie and It seems I did right. Apparently people disliked It and the girl thing was a desperate attempt at getting people to see It.

So yeah, if you are making for example a horror movie don't try to push the marketing with horny stuff.

Sex sells, but it's getting increasingly obvious that boobs and butts are just a marketing ploy to mask up bad movies.

JD swinging the horny jail hammer out here like Capt America in Endgame
I wish I had that hammer when watching Last Unicorn earlier.
I am never looking at trees the same again.
When one goes through the stuff I had to deal with during December and somehow making It out with a part of your sanity still left, you do need to own a horny jail hammer to keep yourself safe.
and a spray to put stalkers away.

Encounter from Metal Gear starts playing

They've been doing that for so long that it was outright mocked in at least one trailer:


Also, RIP Alan Rickman.

Images of the new live-action Mortal Kombat.


As of now, bound to come out in April. That could change though.

If this film doesn't up the Scorpion's Revenge, there's definitely something wrong...
TheMightyP TheMightyP Big congrats on landing the role dude! 🙏

Question for anyone who can answer. Please. Rank the Final Fantasy Games by level of gameplay similarity to FF7R. 1 being the least, 20 being the most.
There’s not really any that’s like it. The closest thing is FFXV but it’s basically just hold down one button and do spells every once in a while. So close to a 10 or 15? The only game that’ll be similar to FFVIIR is it’s sequels and the upcoming FFXVI. Which looks incredible by the way.

Hurt I wasn’t tagged but that’s pretty damn exciting. I just hope it’s good. I was pretty disappointed in King of the Monsters.

I wasn't aware you were a fan of giant monsters in general.

Join the party then my fellow kaiju brethren. ^_^

Also sorry you were disappointed with King of the Monsters. Hope this film proves to be better for you.

Wait, they are moving the release date earlier without even releasing a trailer?

Weird.

I think you and I were the ones that discussed why. The mom. But I loved loved Skull Island so if it can be on par with that and Godzilla 2014 I’m sure I’ll love it. I still enjoyed KotM but it just didn’t land in all places.
