Fuck this article and, honestly, fuck you for writing it. This is a garbage take about nothing. He literally is saying nothing here. He didn’t get the movie, his opinion has no substance to it, this is NOTHING. This man does not have a single thought in his brain, as deeply proven yet again right here. FFS.

It’s almost as if Joe Rogan were a vacuous douchebag with no real expertise or strong opinion on any topic; a “go with the flow” kind of bro who routinely spouts a bunch of nonsense that millions of fellow vacuous bros find “entertaining.”

*peeks at article*

how did she afford such a fancy glow-up?

Yeah, Devine seems to miss the real shift going on. It’s not that mid-budget comedies aren’t being made. It’s that they’re being made for a different forum. They’re going straight to streaming.

see i actually think seeing a good comedy in a packed house is 10x the experience of anything else.

Maybe don’t make aggressively shitty movies like The Outlaws?

I am not sure it is fair to lay all the blame at Marvel. Sure Marvel and super hero movies are a big part of the issue, but at the same time so are animated kids movies. I was a kid in the 80's and back then you got lots of classic comedies but maybe 1 or 2 animated kids movies a year that weren’t Disney re-releases.…

All the trash comedies that came out in the early ‘00s ruined comedy. Studios started making ‘Scary Movie’ knockoffs that were trash, audiences stopped going to them so studios figured comedies don’t make money anymore and stopped making them.

Nope, it’s simpler than that.

Pretty much this, that studios consider anything less than a 100%+ ROI is the issue.  That and the creative accounting they do to also claim just about every movie they make is a money loser.

I think it’s also that movies are just so freaking expensive these days. It’s hard for a lot of people to muster up that kind of money to see something that doesn’t strictly *need* to be seen in a theater. It makes sense to go get all the special effects and loud noises of an action movie in a theater, but you might…

Again for the people in the back: There’s no money in small profits!!

it’s funny because his conclusion (marvel movies negatively effected studio comedies) is basically true, but his reasoning that people would rather see a 200 million dollar spectacle than a relatable comedy is, IMO, false.

I see a society crumbling under the weight of human imperfection because people can’t handle that we all fuck up

Started a little uneven but MAN that payoff. Not just the entire goddamn news broadcast, but the end gag of Guillermo in the trap corridor. 

No I agree with you 100%. This was up there with Baron’s Night Out. I was laughing as hard at this as I did when Baron vomited pizza and flew around backwards.

I thought this episode was hilarious. It’s all over the place, and that’s ok. Lazlo at the sports desk had me cracking up. Nandor De Laurentitis? I mean, come on. That’s good.

I loved the building hilarity of the vampires continuing to make everything worse every time they tried to fix what they thought was the previous calamity though it does make me wonder how our beloved idiots did manage to survive this long. Hypnosis, which is a running undercurrent of the season, can only get you so…
