To heck with everything about this movie, I am curious why no one jumped on this mention of the Schulman 6.

That's what I thought.

Also, "pending bust" tells me everything I need to know. Because there is zero indication that the movie itself is bad, you guys just need it to fail for culture war purposes. Same as always.


Zero indication?

Did you not watch the trailer? And the comments? And the ratio?



The indication is there if you weren't a such a simp-hard for your Hollywood brethren.


The ratio is bull**** and you know it. It's typical culture war downvoting. Same goes for the comments. You can't possibly be that naive.

The trailers, though? Yes, once again, I find them underwhelming as well. But not remotely to the point where I think the movie will be "bad." It's just obvious to me that Nolen is purposefully holding a **** ton back.

And I *am* a simp-hard for Nolan due to his track record. But Hollywood? Not so much. There's a difference.

Yes, the cannons and cake are not in the ship moving range of proportions

Have we reached that point where TC swears hes not a liberal?

Ah, yes, only on TexAgs would being sick and tired of people endlessly *****ing about culture war nonsense make one a liberal.

I think it's much worse. Clearly he is a communist. He loves that Chinese theater.

TCTTS we all love your passion. But you are preaching to the opposite of the choir. 0 stars on your posts in the last three hours. No one really agrees with you. This movie looks bad from what we've seen and the big choices around casting are what they are and you can't convince anyone they are anything else. This film might be awesome but signs point to no.

The Critical Drinker has entered the chat. And, as always, his opinions basically mirror my own, 100%. I've watched so many of his videos, over the years, and he's usually criticizing slop with glee. You can tell he has a similar reaction as many of us who actually do love Nolan. Just disappointed. A feeling of, "...but why?"



I suspect you're mixing up correlation with causation if it's 100%

Oh, I could not care less about stars. On a site that's 95% conservatives, as the "Hollywood" guy of course I'm not going to get many stars.

And I simply disagree that the movie looks bad. It may not look as great as other Nolan projects, but it doesn't look bad. Y'all are of course welcome to your own opinions, though. Just don't be surprised if most people end up liking it and it makes serious bank.

If this could just be your actual vibe these threads would be a lot more chill.

I like how the ratio is blamed on conservatives when quite frankly I think a lot of us are just tired of someone being a complete ***** on almost every thread that involves people who don't hold the opinion he does

Having an opinion about a movie is a very different thing than spewing one's ideology and culture war bull**** all over this board. I've always welcomed the former, I've always despised the latter, and I've been very consistent about that.

Youtube comments have bots just like other forms of social media and internet sites/forums with high traffic flows. They have considered hiding likes/dislikes and views from being displayed

You realize I don't give a **** if people I don't like don't like me, right? You're never going to sway me, no matter how many times you tell me you're tired of me. In fact, it just emboldens me. Because I know if someone like you finds me to be a "*****" I must be doing something right.

I'd like to once again recommend that you relax.

Oh, I realize it perfectly because you demonstrate it daily. It's working great for you btw.

Oh, I'm very relaxed. This is fun.

And I could say the same to you guys, re: Nolan's decisions.

This thread is far more entertaining than I think The Odyssey movie will be.

JUST MY OPINION

Sorry, not a chance in hell I see this thing in Bryan, or with Cliff, as I already have prime seats in glorious IMAX at the Chinese Theater on the 18th.


You've still kind of got me ****ed up that you wouldn't watch this movie with me even if your homie covered the tickets and concessions.

Especially since in this thread TC is played by Donald Glover.

Clearly, you and I are the only ones who care about the arts. Everyone else just wants to yap.

Our theatre in Georgetown is a Schulman, in the "Film Alley" branch of the company. We don't go much but it's great. Wife and I saw Toy Story 5 there last week. The food is actually good. It has a huge arcade and I think five or so bowling lanes.

It was City Lights before that. Looking at their website, it appears there are still a total of six locations. But I didn't see a location still owned by the Schulman's in Bryan.
