Reply to comment by LeraviTheHusky in I know not everyone was a huge fan of Avatar:Way of Water but I think the hardware the humans use looks awesome! by LeraviTheHusky

Everyone has their favorite Disney parks. Animal Kingdom has a special place in my heart because of Pandora. If and when you do go, I recommend walking around and taking it all in both during the day and at night(the place looks exactly like Pandora at night).

They made a joke about them. But every heroic westerner in the series has been Russian. Seems like they want to paint a positive image of Russia.

I guess at the end of the day it's no different to American movies showing Americans as heroic.

Some reviewers complained about Americans being portrayed as dumbasses. But I think that's fair seeing as how Hollywood movies treat Asian characters as comic relief.

I'm guessing this thread is being downvoted by those with the same opinion as those reviewers.

Reply to I just finally watched Bone Tomahawk last night by utopiandiorama

>Bone Tomahawk was a little slow at some parts, could have used a larger cast and spent more time fighting the enemy than just showing them traveling there 75% of the film.

Weird critiques for a purposefully slow-paced film that focuses on only a small group of characters. Sounds like you wanted an action movie out of something that's not an action movie.

Jesus Christ you’re taking this more seriously than I am if you think I’m going the burner route lol. There’s like one random just calling people dickheads. Everyone else is just jumping on me cause it’s the it thing to do.

It’s a joke. It was a joke post to start for the most part. People are just so stupid man that I gotta then at least attempt to set them straight.

Oh wow! One video/person out of seemingly the entire world (or at least, anyone who uses the internet)! That TOTALLY debunked my statement! /s

I don't even like YMS. Your attempt to debunk my point my statement with a singular video, let alone from one by a youtuber I don't like, is straight up laughable.

Reply to Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio (2022) by Huevos___Rancheros

I thought it was fantastic. My big criticism is that Sebastian J. Cricket is supposed to kinda vouch for Pinocchio at the end of the film, but by that time they had barely been together. Sebastian kinda hangs out with Geppetto for the majority of the runtime.

Everything else: loved it. Was also super excited to see Patrick McHale's name attached, since I loved his work on Over the Garden Wall. He's able to balance silliness and super-dark themes very well.

I'm just gonna jump in here it was fun reading that little exchange. But it seems like an interesting take that you would find that to be a kids movie after watching it. My wife and I both found it to be definitely not a kids movie. Either way it's interesting how we can all see things different ways and hopefully we can remember that we are on reddit talking about a movie.
