Random Movie Discussion

Eh

Ugh, why? Listen, I've never watched the movie, BUT, I do know people out there love this movie. I really just hate that studios are so ready to turn animated movies into "live-action" movies when half of the shit is still going to be digitally-rendered into the damn movie.

Subbed to Prime Video a few days ago and I think this may become my main subscrption service from now on, I like it so much more than Netflix. Selection of movies just seems way better, on my first day just browsing through the horror genre I added like 10 films I want to watch, with Netflix I'd be lucky to find 1 or 2 I actually find look interesting.

A lot of other pros I've noticed too:
- Video quality in the browser is way better.
- IMDB ratings is a big thumbs up. Easier to find things worth your time.
- You get the other P rime benefits which is nice to have.
- X-Ray feature is dope. You get like trivia and cast members you can pull up on screen during the movie.

Prime and Shudder I think may be my combo for a while.

Yeah I fucking love prime video for basically all of these options. I also don't mind dropping a few bucks to rent a movie I wanna watch through it if it's not on any other service I have just bc it's so convenient.

Also insanely convenient that you can subscribe to other services through your Amazon account and watch through Prime video as well, I've done a ton of random free trials and just canceled before I was billed. I had paramount+ for like 2 months for 99c a month through it as well as part of a deal, never had to leave the prime app to watch

Zach Galifianakis has closed a deal to star in Lilo & Stitch, Disney’s live-action remake of its cult 2002 animated movie.

Dean Fleischer Camp, the filmmaker behind indie darling and best animated Oscar nominee Marcel the Shell With Shoes On, is directing the feature that is intended to be a major release on Disney+.

The Hawaii-centric story told of the bond formed between a lonely human girl named Lilo and a dog-like alien named Stitch, who was genetically engineered to be a force of destruction. With nosy social workers and pursuing aliens banging on the door, the two bonded over a shared sense of family and win the day.

Details of Galifianakis’ role are being kept in the dog pound.

The studio is conducting a wide search for the actors to play Lilo and her older sister. Stitch, naturally, will be a CG confection.

Chris Kekaniokalani Bright wrote the script for the adaptation. Chris Sanders and Dean DeBlois wrote and directed the original feature that, while not an initial hit, developed a loyal fanbase that only grew in the ensuing years.

Dan Lin and Jonathan Eirich of Rideback are producing. Rideback’s Ryan Halprin is executive producing.

The deal marks a return to studio moviemaking for Galifianakis for the first time since 2018’s A Wrinkle in Time, also a Disney movie. The actor and comedian was a fixture on the big-screen for many years thanks to The Hangover movies and films such as Due Date. Since the late 2010s, however, Galifianakis has focused on television work, co-creating and starring in Baskets for FX, and doing plenty of voicework as well.

The comedian is slowly coming out of his shell and has two movies in the can. He is starring with Elizabeth Banks in The Beanie Bubble, centered on the 1990s toy craze, which will stream on Apple, and will appear in Winner, Susanna Fogel’s drama on whistleblower Reality Winner.

Galifianakis, who gained a massive following for his online talk show Between Two Ferns, is repped by UTA, Brillstein Entertainment Partners, and Yorn Levine.

I've never seen the Animated version now I'm going to need see it. I think The Frozen Franchise and Moana are the Movies with Disney's Animation I haven't had the effort to watch up to now. Oh and that Buzz Lightgear one as well.

Imagine being an adult crying over a cartoon adaptation about an underaged mermaid who marries a clearly adult prince while talking fish sing and dance.

Cinema starting to get too long for making money in actual theaters.

Cinema starting to get too long for making money in actual theaters.

Yeah as much as I love Scorsese and his movies, that's way too long for me to see at a cinema. I can do 3 hours but that's about my limit. I saw The Batman and that was around there, I believe, or very close to it.

I'll for sure be watching this one at home, and probably broke up in to two viewings like I did with The Irishman.

 

[Jimmy King]

I saw that it’ll be on Apple TV Plus so I might just watch it at home that way. It is Scorsese so I’m pretty psyched for it.

 

[Hoss]

You smoking a pound of dick if you think I'm about to watch a 4 hour movie

 

[Deezy]

I didn't even know there was a sequel coming.

Triton got himself a harem.....damn.

This should be his song
