  Whores! we want "poems that kill."
  Assassin poems, Poems that shoot
  guns. Poems that wrestle cops into alleys
  and take their weapons leaving them dead

  

  
  

  I was considering doing the same, but then I saw this video and I realized that it's being made by people who haven't updated their ideas about Strong Female Protags from the 90s.

  I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat

  you act like watching this movie would somehow be some grave sin

  Yes I know he's widely hated, so is Nickelback and there are people out there who would literally rather listen to cacophony than Nickelback

  
  

  It's just a movie, dude, it's not some heavy choice you're making

  I'm trying to discourage Myr from being so neurotic about his curiosity over the products of the Hollywood machine

  
  

  Also I watched that video and they've been saying this stuff about empowering women for years and years, just about verbatim

  
  

  I look forward to a day when we don't have to hear about "strong women" as though nobody ever does that sort of thing

  Sup bitches, witches, Haters, and trolls.

  the scene in the trailer with Toru Iwatani really bugs me for a reason I can't quite pin down.  Like, more than the usual bad comedy bugging me.

  Pac-Man was really the best they could afford, wasn't it?

  anyways, the way Pixels uses video games can't possibly be as good as the way Wreck-It Ralph used Sonic to give an in-universe PSA.

  ⚠ THIS MACHINE KILLS FASCISTS

  This looks like a trainwreck from top to bottom, honestly. Like someone saw that old Penny Arcade "TETRIS" poster and took it seriously.

  well it could well be a trainwreck, it IS a Sony movie

  Waka Flocka Flame and Good Charlotte collaborated on an EDM Trap song for the soundtrack

  
  

  this movie will suck.

  Man is a most complex simple creature: see what he weaves, and how base his reasons for doing so.

  Watch the fucking movie.

  I thought Good Charlotte lost a member and reformed as a pop band named The Madden Brothers? Huh.

  
  

  As for the movie itself, I feel like the concept actually has a little bit of potential but whatever was there was wasted on Adam Sandler's brand of comedy, which has grown tiresome for me over the years. I've kind of stayed on the fence over whether or not I think it'll suck.

  
  

  If you want to see it, though, Myr, don't let any self-doubt keep you from doing so.

  at this point I think he mostly wants to see it out of spite though

  We can do anything if we do it together.

  I honestly can't tell if he actually wants to see the movie or if he's joking about wanting to see it or what he's actually trying to say anymore.

  I've come to terms with largely preferring this sort of movie to movies that are technically "good" over the past year or so.

  
  

  I'm glad that you are, too.

  Touch the cow. Do it now.
  

  I can't believe anybody would seriously consider going to see an Adam Sandler movie
  
  but that's just me

  I kind of doubt an Adam Sandler movie will be entertaining.

  Funny People was a shorter time ago and it still shows Adam Sandler giving somewhat of a shit.

  
  

  I don't think Pixels will show the same effort, but...

  You're guessing at least half, isn't that too generous?
