Remember when a movie series had completed it’s storylines, there was no more movies about that series and companies just make up new stories to make movies? Now companies want to milk the same products for all their worth. It includes awful products like Harry Potter. We’re in hell and it’s all the mcu’s fault.

Edit: Ok, this isn’t the mcu’s fault this is happening. Companies just want to milk their existing ip and not waste any time or money thinking of a new one.

Warner Bros: Batgirl was a complete mess. No amount of money would have made it good.

Also Warner Bros:

DC - The mark of quality 🤣🤣🤣

#anti dceu #anti warner bros #lol #I’m not saying batgirl would have been good but the idea that anyone in WB and DC give a shit about quality is hilarious

I really can’t express just how dangerous Zaslav is to the media market, he’s pivoting CNN “to the center,” which means accommodating Christian Nationalist talking points and media framing.

The original Barbie: Life in the Dreamhouse was Barbie satire that was actually good and wasn't hateful or humiliating to the characters or the fans.

So rooster teeth is shutting down after 2 decades (i thought it started in the early 2010s lol). As much grievances i have with the company I feel bad for the employees who were simply doing their job. Fucking Zaslav man....

New Tom and Jerry, new Chip and Dale, new Space Jam just companies trying desparately to make a live action/cartoon blended movie, everybody wanna be Who Framed Roger Rabbit, but nobody wanna put in the work to make actually good animation that actually blends and feels real in the live action world or a feasible story with likeable characters and actors who care about delivering a good performance while acting alongside cartoon characters and actually trained voice actors that know how to perform with energy from within a sound booth rather than celebrities with name recognition and no formal voice acting training, with minimal references to known properties with punchlines and storyarcs that seamlessly integrate them into the fabric of the world around them while also working with their established characters rather than just being put in the movie for people to *Leonardo DiCaprio fingerpointing gif* instead they just wanna capitalize on nostalgia and make as many references to characters audiences already know as they can fit into a one to two and a half hour timeframe and ultimately serve to stomp on the legacy of the master of the cartoon/live action genre of Who Framed Roger Rabbit

So you know that thing Netflix and others have done/are doing with scrapping finished projects for tax write offs? Yeah, I hate that too.

But I'm not sure if we should be focused on eliminating the tax loophole (which I suspect might be hard to precisely close, cause taxes are like that) or on not letting them erase the projects from existence when they do it? In the latter case, where do folks think the film/rights should go?

*Don't know how projects are financed these days, or how it would work, sorry.

**Again, not a fully worked out idea, would probably make the film a LLC or similar.

***If the studio originally bought the project off someone else, obviously right of first refusal to them.

Warner Bros actually made Rocksteady make the Suicide Squad game. Rocksteady wanted to do a Batman Beyond spinoff but WB still thinks the Suicide Squad is incredible popular and forced them to do it. They also wanted the Justice League dead for no fucking reason.

ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?!!??!!!

It’s so gross how studios are holding on to the ai thing in the sag terms. These are the same companies that will go after people for making fan content of their movies but they want to use the faces of dead actors without consent in their movies using ai? I hope this strike goes on for two years and loses the companies a lot of money because that ai shit is unforgivable.

Edit: with the strike ending now, I’m glad that the sag got the proper protection from ai thing.

Man, I don’t know which is funnier. The fact that a $200 million musical Joker sequel exists or everyone in the YouTube comments section trying to convince themselves this isn’t the stupidest idea ever.

What a pretentious load of drivel. 🤣

#joker: folie à deux #anti dc #anti warner bros #you gotta love that lady gaga isn’t even attempting to do a Brooklyn accent #honestly even without the jukebox musical aspect this is everything I would hate about a joker sequel #a joker Harley romance played entirely straight #can’t wait 🙄😒

[outlawssweetheart]

I’ll probably get yelled at for this (even though these are simply facts), but oh well. 🤷🏽‍♀️

I’ve realized that Warner Bros. productions can’t keep a purely evil (or just purely mean, in Cheryl’s case) woman purely evil (or purely mean) to save their lives!

First Harley Quinn (which is a DC problem in general now), then Cheryl Blossom, and now Alicent Hightower. No, now they must become a Poor Sad Baby™, usually a Victim of Evil Men™.

Is this supposed to be empowering? Because it’s just pathetic and completely warps the characters, often making other characters look bad in the process. (The Joker and Otto were always bad, obviously. But Clifford & Penelope? 🤨 Viserys? 🤨 Fuck that bullshit!)

#I'm sure there are more but those are the only ones that come to mind. #Anyone who likes these changes can't even argue with me because THESE ARE SIMPLE FACTS. #@ Jarley antis: DNI. Harley ALWAYS loved the criminal lifestyle before meeting J and she wanted to exploit her patients! #And Jarley's relationship is mutually toxic. Joker is just worse. (And he's a man so everyone flips their shit about him being toxic. 🙄) #harley quinn #cheryl blossom #alicent hightower #jarley #rant #victimization of women #victimization of female characters #infantilization of women #infantilization of female characters #text post #anti warner bros #anti wb #anti dceu #anti riverdale #anti hotd

Barbie (2023) is like Riverdale: Aesthetically very pleasing, but a total fucking insult to the characters, the brand, and the true fans.

And the stans are just as stupid, boosting about OOC garbage! "Barbie is much happier with Glo*a than with Ken UWU" That's because she's been written out of character, Sierra, you haven't won valid brownie points here! 🙄

“BABYLON 5″ will be dropped by the HBO Max streaming service on January 25, 2023.  Damn you Warner Brothers.
