Yeah, Nintendo is pretty much the Disney of video games at this point haha

Both in mainstream appeal and being ruthless, lawsuit-happy companies

 

Metroid, Animal Crossing, Starfox, and Pikmin could call work as movies.

 

I always assumed the picture was just something they made for the movie.

 

Animal Crossing actually already has a decent movie; it was just never released outside of Japan. i'm assuming a new movie would unfortunately lean more into what Illumination did with Mario, but i'm not opposed to seeing a new take on a film adaptation.

 

I need an Animal Crossing adaptation where some of the villagers can be sassy little dicks like in the GameCube version

 

God, i wish.

 

Movie Theater Ads Anger Studios: Consequences For The Business

 

Yeah the 30+ minutes of ads when I saw Thunderbolts at Regal was rough

 

It is a sign of a dying business. When you are trying to reverse the losses you don't make the experience worse.

 

My 6:30 showing of F1 didn’t start til like 7:07 the other day. There has to be a breaking point

 

I started just showing up pretty late to AMC showings but then when I tried that at the independent theaters I missed the beginning. The local AMC is the closest to my house, but woefully understaffed. They don't even clean between matinee showings.

 

AMC is the worst about it. I’ve been to smaller independent theaters that have the movie starting 10-15 minutes after the listed showtime.
