Bold of you to assume they had a choice.

Oh good, so just enough time between release and the patch to completely flop. 

I have face tattoos, not extensively, but as a designer it was never an issue for my clients. They love my work and my professionalism and optics are a non issue. And I am working 6 figures a year. (in Europe with healthcare)

Selling cannabis should be treated the same as selling homebrew beer: a tax code violation.

Definitely deserve being locked up for a long time for the whole pointing a gun at people shit, though.

Nah, fuck that. Let ‘em sell*. If it’s not going to be legalized at a federal level then someone’s gotta.

You are wildly out of step with the modern world.

Eh, even if they have intent to sell, I’m still with Rafi on this one.

Nobody should being booked for weed unless DUI.

There is a plot, but it was stolen from Dances with Wolves/Fern Gully.

Umm, no they fucking didn’t. They iterated and hugely refined Mocap technology for Avatar, and absolutely pushed the field forward. But they absolutely didn’t “basically invent” it.

Agreed. I think that too many people conflate “money-maker” with “popular.” A movie can rake in cash because of variables like the cost per ticket (and 3D movies or other special sound/screen features demand a higher price per person). Avatar made more money because they required that we pay them more money. It’s…

Whenever I think of how sad/depressing the various endings for Cyberpunk are, I always come back to this conversation:

Honestly, I don’t get Avatar. I thought both movies were mediocre at best. The CG was great but everything else was forgettable. That said, the IP is really popular for some reason so I’m sure this game will sell well enough.

I feel like your response was meant to be snarky but...it’s just true? Except that it doesn’t make sense to call Oppenheimer a franchise (since it is a single film without franchise potential or intent). But it was/is very popular (nearly a billion in box office receipts).

“Popularity is closer to net worth than any other actual metric imo.”

lol, way of water was embarrassingly bad. some blue kid dies at the end and I couldn’t even figure out which brother it was, it’s all the same bland writing and performances. 

I mean, both movies were visually stunning with zero plot or depth, so I guess this is pretty faithful?

Is the Smurfgully franchise really “some of the most popular films in history”? It’s not even the most popular franchise named “Avatar”. Sure, the films made a lot of money, but they’re high-tech spectacle from one of the most famous directors alive, so of course they would. Does anybody actually care about the lore…

“Gorgeous, Fun and Empty” ... So it’s like an Avatar movie?
