About this community and how I post the comics… Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips. Of course these days you can read your favorite comics online instead of a newspaper, but I love the nostalgia of reading the daily comics. Anyway, one of my favorite current comics is Cyanide and Happiness and I will be posting the daily release from their website (https://explosm.net/) and a an extra or two randoms.

Don't tell James but I saw the original Avatar as a grainy camrip with Russian subtitles and people walking in front of the screen

James Cameron: omae wa mou shindeiru

I think this is the first time I’ve seen avatar mentioned in nearly a year. Weird how a movie series that popular generates so little discussion.

[–] Gork@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

It's because the movie is entirely about people of color (blue)

I mean, a lot of people spent a lot of time discussing the first one, it just boiled down to

"It's sci-fi Dances With Wolves, and it made a load of money."

The sequel is the same thing, but with whales and even more explicit environmentalism/anti-colonialism

All of the social criticism is correct, but, like, do something about it, billionaire filmmaker? The discussion time is over.

“It’s sci-fi Dances With Wolves, and it made a load of money.”

Sci-fi Pocahontas is more accurate, but yeah, there's just not much to talk about beyond the effects.

Probably because it wasn't any good? I couldn't even get 20 minutes into my rental to get to the plot.

I saw it in IMAX 3D when it came out because I knew I wouldn't be able to enjoy it at all at home. I was fighting sleep the entire last half, I kept waking up seeing something I thought was cool and trying to stay awake, but I still slept through most of the last ACT

I think maybe because it's a movie known for putting a lot of effort into high detail visuals so watching at low quality wastes the effort put into them? idk I didn't watch it

James Cameron will fuck you up if you don't appreciate his amazing cinematography.

[–] EvilTwin@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

James Cameron doesn't do what James Cameron does for James Cameron.
James Cameron does what James Cameron does because James Cameron is James Cameron.

how can you get a bajillion dollars from a film and then act pretentious about how people watch it. who cares?

[–] ReCursing@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

I honestly cannot understand why you would want to watch something on a smart watch. i can just about understand a tablet because it's relatively portable, but even a phone is too small!
