Re: Thread for being deeply, non-fatalistically worn out about something

Where is your bar set that only having 5 or 6 different non-MCU movies playing at once is a drastic slight against the system? Even before the MCU blew up most of the theatres around here had maaaaybe 6 or 7 movies playing at once.

And even still unless its like AAA blockbuster extraordinaire, most movies will get the week of release with a ton of screenings and then drop down to 3 maybe 4 a day if theyre lucky. Especially during the summer when theres a new major release every week. Like Endgame has had all the fancy showings for 2 weeks now, but Cap Marvel has maybe 2-3 showings a day, and I garuntee Endgame is going to get knocked out of most of those the second Pikachu gets released.

Local trends don't always provide meaningful indications of global ones.

Buh.  I'm really done with the "X script made Y actor mentally ill" construction.  Teleplays are not mind pathogens.

Re: Thread for being deeply, non-fatalistically worn out about something

Ugh, yeah, that's part of the bigger cultural issue where method acting has become synonymous with "becoming" your character, which leads to stuff like Jared Leto being an absolute asshole to his fellow cast members under the guise of truly "being" the Joker.

It's sorta like Teague's Aurora rant, where by posting Batman-with-black-armband memes you're reducing the shooting victims to Batman fans—the people who insist Ledger died because he "couldn't handle" life after the Joker are reducing his entire being and body of work to the psychotic clown he played once. It's an insult, and it enables abusive nonsense like Leto's behind-the-scenes shtick.

(I have no hopes that any aspects of Joaquin Phoenix's Joker movie will be good outside his performance, but it's so refreshing that he keeps getting annoyed when people ask him about playing the character and says it's just a paycheck like any other. Guy gets it.)
