Go see HM, TWDC needs your support!
Based off of what I'm hearing about it, I would need to go to one of the AMC theaters that has a bar. This isn't a movie you can be sober for.
Another person I forgot to put on ignore. Thanks for the reminder.
Sorry…not haunted mansion…
Let’s stop slagging @BuddyThomas. I don’t always agree with him and think he tends to respond and provoke in an overly emotional way at times, but we should acknowledge, encourage, and appreciate intellectual honesty when it’s displayed and demonstrated here.
Good points. I rescind my steampunk comment then, I was thinking mostly in terms of art that I've seen under the category of steampunk, which is more of the "fantastical Victorian dreamscape" variety.
Most steampunk is designed to look like it's from the Victorian era so it's easy to make that correlation.
Yeah. I think the line between what we think of as Gothic and Victorian is blurred. Steampunk is definitely a subset of the era, but I think it’s more the use of fantastical devices or more modern technology with the accoutrements of the era (hence, “steam”)
But you like everything. It sincerely worries me for TWDC.
What’s intellectually dishonest is the implication that @BuddyThomas’s candour is anything new. Throughout the movie threads, those of us who are characterised as Disney apologists have posted frank reviews based on firsthand experience, offering criticism as well as praise. Meanwhile, a host of individuals who’ve never even seen the films in question have inundated the threads with kneejerk negativity about them. They are the ones from whom some honesty should be welcomed.
I never suggested this was “new.” I think he’s been honest.
I have seen BuddyThomas criticize a few Disney movies here… some people choose to see the movies before they judge
I have not seen HM yet.
To me, it's all about the story. I hope it does well.
Of course… that’s the way it should be
