I swear some comic movie fans are the stupidest people alive

I swear some ~~comic movie~~ fans are the stupidest people alive

Touché, seems like every fandom has its mouth breathers.

Well, except for Our Flag Means Death fans at least as far as the folks I've interacted with. Figures that a queer pirate rom-com would generally have a pretty wholesome fandom (although there's probably shitty OMFD fans too, heh)

I mean I still find it funny, I find it entertaining when it's found out that an extremely high cost production used something that I have access to

It's more common than you think

Just a crumb of media literacy for an old seppo?

He is responsible for making me the way I am…

A clever folk hero, right?

Right?

If a movie isn't brave enough to put their main actor into deep water with no breathing equipment with a ton of sharks just for the poster picture, then I'm not watching it

[–] drunkpostdisaster@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

The movie would have made more money if someone was mauled by a shark and it led to a boycott

That last Aquaman movie is genuinely one of the worst things I have ever watched.

I stole it and I still wanted a refund.

I think I made it halfway through. On 4 tries.

[–] jjjalljs@ttrpg.network 18 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I thought at first they had left the watermark in (no pun intended). That would've been a big fuckup.

Are you saying that mofo can't breathe under water? Cause if so, I want my money back.

[–] drunkpostdisaster@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

To be fair I would have expected a tiny bit more effort.

For the poster? Nah. They're right, that's what stock photos are for. What, you want them to whip up a unique CGI model for no discernable improvement in quality in a still picture?

[–] Chadus_Maximus@lemm.ee 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No. I want them to photograph real sharks. No CGI.

[–] MacStache@programming.dev 19 points 1 year ago

Good news! Someone already did and is selling that photo in stock photo services!
