So isn't that more of a reboot than a sequel?
I think they're going for a similar thing that happened with Thor. They used Thor and Thor: The Dark World to establish the canon for the characters, but Ragnarok did away with things like Jane and whatnot and has a wildly different tone, making it pretty much standalone.

One thing I'm kinda worried about is that rumor has it Kinnaman isn't coming back as Rick Flagg. He was honestly one of the better parts of the movie, imo, so it kinda sucks if he doesn't come back.
Honestly he didn't leave much of an impression on me, but since then I watched Altered Carbon (primarily due to neon-related reasons :colorful:), so Joel Kinnaman is more on my radar now. But it's not worth watching SS again. :laugh:

On the other hand there's talk of Idris Elba replacing Will Smith as Deadshot and that's honestly kinda neat.
Will Smith is an entertaining guy, I'd be fine if he stayed on. But I can't remember the last Will Smith movie I watched where I saw the character and not just Will Smith. I don't have that problem with Idris Elba.

If it makes you feel better it's already confirmed it's ignoring the first movie and the only things they're keeping are Margot as Harley and Deadshot. Everything else including Deadshot's actor is going to be different
I don't think it's confirmed they're only keeping those things. I think it's that those things have been confirmed to return.

I think the last time I remember Will Smith playing someone who wasn't just Will Smith was The Pursuit of Happyness. Or at least that was the last one I can remember.

He can act and play different roles, but he's kinda doomed to be typecast as himself, which is a shame.

It might also be due to the fact that I've seen much of the Fresh Prince two or three times, where he literally played Will Smith, and maybe one third of his other filmography. :laugh:

Not that I regret any of that.

I was lookin' for someone to prank, and you were the first person who came to mind.
Heck yeah my girl.

No serious, thanks a bunch. I appreciate it.

Okay but the Pursuit of Happyness is a great movie and I'm glad that's the one role he didn't play himself for because he really knocked that movie out of the park.

Someone told me that Gangnam Style came out seven years ago, and I said "no it didn't".

Then I went to check, and the video was posted in 2012. So I said, aloud, by myself, to the open webpage, "no you weren't."
And then I refreshed to see if it changed.

And then I just watched it again because I have nothing to prove. C'mon, that **** was like fifteen years ago.

I also don't feel like the 00s were that long ago.

I think I tried WoW about 3-4 years ago.

Ran up to an enemy.

Watched my human take a solid 3 and a half seconds to swing a goddamn sword.

Uninstalled.


I've grown spoiled to good attack speeds in gaming.

I just made a dumb, low-effort Pokemon meme and now I'm subjecting all of you nerds to it.

If you don't get the joke then you aren't a true Pokemon fan and aren't allowed to be hyped for Sword and Shield. /s

Hot take.

Toy Story 3 ended the series in a rather beautiful way. There didn't need to be a 4th.
I wouldn't call that a hot take. Most people seem to think Toy Story 3 ended on a perfect note.

I wasn't impressed with the Toy Story 4 trailer either. I haven't been impressed by Pixar in a long time. Coco was cool in several ways, but was also very formulaic and cliched. Inside Out had some good moments, but I felt like there was a lot of missed opportunity. Every other movie after Toy Story 3 has just been so bleh.

So Disney changed their homepage in coordination with the Fox deal... to this:



Honestly, I'm thrilled for the MCU, and I can't wait for Kingdom Hearts to feature the inevitable World of Springfield (and nobody will tell me otherwise), but one company having all this has me ****ing rattled.

Also what a time we live in where the House of Mouse would spotlight properties such as Deadpool, Atlanta, and the Shape of Water.

Despite never having actually seen The Simpsons for, seeing Bart labeled as a Disney character now still feels super weird and unreal to me. My brain just can't wrap my head around that idea for some reason.

I guess that it's not because it's primarily targeted at adults, but rather that it's a cartoon primarily targeted at adults. When Disney's brand is mainly recognized for their family-friendly cartoons and animation, it just feels weird to have one that isn't family friendly in the mix now, and such an iconic and recognizable one to.

If they own FOX, don't they also technically own Family Guy as well now too?

Well hey, they have Archer and Family Guy now too. And those are much more "adult".

Hold on for a second though...

Honestly if James Gunn somehow makes DCEU salvageable I'll be pretty happy

Gosh it's hard to keep track of everything Disney owns these days.

Funny thing is my mom was angry over something they did earlier today and said she was going to boycott them. Let's see how long that lasts before she accidentally purchases something without knowing Disney owns it. I give it a month at most.
Hold on for a second though...

I wasn't allowed to watch it as a kid.

I actually wasn't allowed to watch Spongebob either but I had a rebellious older sister who'd turn the TV on when my parents were away, so I got to see a lot of that before my parents decided to cut cable television altogether.

I'll probably binge watch some Golden Age Simpsons one of these days, but I'm not into pirating and my only legal options is watching it is downloading the app and watching it on my tiny little phone screen. I also hear that a lot of it is kind of dated.

It's actually from Marvel vs. Capcom 2. RE gifs usually aren't as wholesome.



But I've got plenty to share.
I had actually assumed it was fanmade, since that gif seemed a tad too light hearted for the world of RE. I actually had no idea Jill was in Marvel VS Capcom.

I also had no idea that Jill was a Capcom character.

I wonder if instead of taking jabs at Fox, The Simpsons now take jabs at Disney.

Oh wait, they already do.
