I am so old

A whole new generation younger than me is already being pandered to...

I don't know what any of the words in the title mean

[–] atomicorange@lemmy.world 26 points 2 years ago (1 children)

A bay is a broad inlet of the sea where the land curves inward.

Thanks, always wondered

[–] Khrux@ttrpg.network 6 points 2 years ago

This film won't happen. Skibidi toilet had 15 mins of fame for generation alpha and only had legs from older generations not understanding it because it's toilet humour and absurd.

The kids already don't care about it. If the Minecraft movie went through development hell for 10 years, this movie is not getting made when they realise the kids already don't give a shit.

Don't fuck this up Michael Bay, we're counting on you for a faithful adaptation.

[–] mashbooq 52 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Skibidi gradually evolved into more than 70 1-to-5-minute mini-epics depicting the infinitely escalating war between the Toilets and the Cyborgs. Each video is explosive, violent and free of any discernible dialogue.

Should be right up his alley

[–] paddirn@lemmy.world 15 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yeah, except he’ll have to figure out a way to make the movie mostly about a forced love story between two characters completely unrelated to the original series, and only show anything Skibidi-related for like <1/2 the movie.

[–] dumbass@leminal.space 5 points 2 years ago

And how does he get Megan Fox in it?

[–] thedudeabides@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 2 years ago (1 children)

All it requires is that the film ends with "What I've done" by Linking Park but this time it's [s l o w e d + r e v e r b e d] [c h i l l m i x]

[–] bizarroland@fedia.io 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Everyday we set one step farther away from the light of God and towards 2 hour long Idiocracy ass movies.

I can't wait until m night shyamalan puts out an ass movie with a twist.

You got to be fucking kidding me.

[–] Xenny@lemmy.world 54 points 2 years ago (2 children)

But the meme is on its way out. We're in ironic enjoyment of how cringe it is right now. Movies going to bomb

[–] Ltcpanic@lemmy.world 30 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Hollywood can't move fast enough to capture that white hot meme heat

great

[–] chicken@lemmy.dbzer0.com 49 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children)

I think the hate it gets is undeserved, Skibidi Toilet is objectively an impressive achievement of 3d animation and minimal surrealist storytelling, it's obvious that the person who made it has been doing this for a long time and is very skilled. People are just dismissive because the main target audience is children and not them.

[–] TheImpressiveX@lemmy.ml 36 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yeah, let's not pretend that we didn't like stupid Internet stuff when we were younger.

[–] Archelon@lemmy.world 14 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Is Skibidi Toilet this generation’s Llamas With Hats or Charlie the Unicorn?

[–] PapaStevesy@lemmy.world 23 points 2 years ago

YouTube Poops

[–] CaptPretentious@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago

I've only caught a little bit of it here and there... So take what I say with a grain of salt.

But I'd say probably no. For no other reason than I don't remember any quotable lines. If anything I'd say maybe more along the lines of like happy tree friends?

[–] FauxPseudo@lemmy.world 22 points 2 years ago

Watching from the first episode is like watching someone get in their 10,000 hours. Visuals and story telling skills getting just a little bit better every single episode.

[–] flamingo_pinyata@sopuli.xyz 37 points 2 years ago

I'm imagining conversations with the costume department.

So half of the actors will be wearing a full toilet costume
A what?!
Yes, only their head should stick out, but make it completely mobile. And also appropriate for stunts
...

[–] empireOfLove2@lemmy.dbzer0.com 25 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (5 children)

I'm not gonna be "that guy", but I remember watching dafuq's animations years before skibidi toilet was a thing.

[–] TunaCowboy@lemmy.world 20 points 2 years ago

I'm not gonna be "that guy",

Immediately proceeds to be that guy.

[–] BakerBagel@midwest.social 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I remember when Little Big released the OG Skibidi

[–] ramble81@lemm.ee 6 points 2 years ago

Excuse me, but Scatman John would like a word with you, from 1994 to be exact.

Michael Bay should start clearing space to display his second Oscar

[–] thedudeabides@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 2 years ago

I would say Criterion should prepare another addition to their Bay flicks catalogue

[–] FinishingDutch@lemmy.world 18 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Sigh. I’d rather hand that budget to Tommy Wiseau for a The Room sequel.

[–] BreadOven@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Check out Neil Breen if you haven't.

I hope it has that "skibidi Ohio rizz" all the kids are talking about.

Who owns all the cgi models/props, and will the creators of the cgi models/props be paid?

[–] Anarki_@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 2 years ago

[–] mwproductions@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

That's not very sigma of them.

[–] LostWanderer@lemmynsfw.com 6 points 2 years ago

Huh, well I guess they're desperate for ideas.

[–] Jordan117@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

And still no Halo movie.
