It’s closing in January and reopening by the end of the same year? That doesn’t give me much hope for the level of detail they’re going to put into the new attraction. The current one already has maintenance issues that could use attention. I loathe Disney’s long construction timelines, but a cheap retheming certainly

Super pedantic, but Splash Mountain opened first in 1989, not ‘92 (this was at Disneyland--’92 is probably the date of the Magic Kingdom version?)  I remember well because that was our first family trip to Disneyland, and the whole time I was aware that if we had gone just a month later we could have rode it. 

The head of imagineering went rogue and released drawings of this retheme without any internal approval. There was no plan, no budget and it caught everyone off guard. Disney should have fired her on the spot but they feared the political climate of the time.

Honestly, I don’t care what anyone else says, I found Indy being on the wrong end of “why don’t you just pull a gun out and shoot him?” for once to be laugh-out-loud charming. I think I’m in. 

I...I dunno. Look man, I’m totally gonna be there, opening week guaranteed. It looks exactly like what I would expect a 2023 Indiana Jones movie to look like. I’m not going to be heartbroken if there are aliens. I’m glad Shia isn’t here. Despite Ford’s age, it doesn’t look like it’s leaning that hard on “Oh my back!”

Can we have a scene where Phoebe Waller-Bridge gets to play with the whip? For, uh, narrative reasons. Yeah, that’s it.

My weird, esoteric concern: the original films were, at least in part, homages to the b-movies and serials of the 30s, which often included things like Professor Challenger going on adventures. (That’s why they’re set in the 30s and have hokey titles and red lines moving across maps and such.) Crystal Skull, for

My instinct is to say yes, but then I remember how silly titles like “Temple of Doom” and “The Empire Strikes Back” must have sounded initially and I hesitate. (I was born in ‘87, so I just take those for granted, but they’re also pretty silly titles out of context.) Heck, even “Attack of the Clones” was pilloried as

we’re doomed to endless drab green screen stages that gave Obi-Wan Kenobi its muted grey palette

Am I the only one who thinks Dial of Destiny is just fine?  I mean, it’s no Temple of Doom, but it alliterates nicely and doesn’t feel like four titles crammed together in one.  

I like the afternoon show. It’s prob bc many were and still are working from home, so a lot of people just don’t catch the morning show. Now, they can get the lunch break wfh crowd + retirees watching in the afternoon.

I get that the content beast has to eat, but do we really need every actor, director, producer, and key grip’s opinion on this?

I’m not sure how much anonymous random internet chatter is worth to call it officially “criticism”, but there were some comments stating that instead of Brandon Frasier wearing prosthetics, the film should have cast an actual 600 lb actor for the role. Those comments didn’t last long when others pointed out how

We still have mornings and ABC is still a broadcast network. Why wouldn’t we still have GMA?

Hasn’t most of the criticism come from that one actor who thought he should have been cast? Hardly much “controversy” there.

Stop trying to make ‘Mean Girls 2' happen. It’s not going to happen.

I don’t remember Mean Girls being a kids movie.

Lesson 1: Movie making is a business. It’s all about the money. Disney wants it; Disney shareholders want it. End of lesson 1.

The original lead cast is not in it so it doesn’t really count as a true sequel imo, it is its own standalone thing... People wanted a follow-up with Lindsay, Rachel, Lacey, Amanda, Lizzy, not some randos

Where did I even mention quality? Point is your argument is “people saying something hasn’t had an impact = thing did have an impact” when by that terrible logic people writing that Snyder hasn’t had a deliberate impact on pop-culture means he must’ve had one and at it’s most extreme people saying the Royal Family
