Today’s Ask PHlemmy: Which "famous" movie franchise is pretty much dead?

12
lemmy.world

Fast & Furious? I stopped watching just about the time Jason Statham showed up.

9

What's unique with Fast & Furious franchise is that they combine practical effects and extensive CGi at the same time, and it's glorious when you watch them in theaters. lol

5

Literally the DC Extended Universe: with its final 2 movies The Flash and Aquaman 2 releasing this year, and yesterday’s announcement of the new Superman (David Corenswet) and Lois Lane (Rachel Brosnahan) for a reboot

lemm.ee

X-Men? the latest i watched is dark phoenix and according to wikipedia there was a movie released in 2020 that flopped

7

Tbf, New Mutants was watchable... mostly because of Anya Taylor-Joy's performance there as Magik. Other than that, meh. Buti na lang nakuha na ng MCU rights ulit sa X-Men.

6

Not to mention that they lied to us by saying Toy Story 3 is the end (and it concluded well). Then they did a fourth one tapos may Lightyear pa.

2
  • Jurassic Park (or World). Man, Dominion was a turd. The opening scene was a cringe and the whole felt like I was watching four movies in one.
  • Terminator. It's pretty much dead after Salvation. T3 was fine, ironically this was my first Terminator film I watched.
  • MCU
  • Star Wars
5

In Hollywood? Everything and anything will be remade and continued. Even a flop will eventually return. I don't doubt the dark universe (with Tom cruise and Russell Crowe) will be revisited after a few years.

5

What, you think they’ll grow that limb back or age backwards? lmao, pero ang narinig ko kasing problema kapag nadeads daw yung PWD tapos pwede padin gamitin ng ibang tao as fake identity

I'm so tired of my life I wanna experience living like a hermit, as far away from the city as possible.

Working from home, while living in an isolated mountain cliff surrounded by forests is a dream I've always have had--until I realize the logistics of actually fulfilling that dream, lol!

Same gusto ko sana tumira sa isla pero hassle if may gusto puntahan hahaha

Yun nga eh!! Dun pa lang sa hassle na mag-connect ka ng internet connection, kuryente, at tubig eh. O di kaya mag-iinstall ka ng sattelite dish, generator, tapos deep well?

Nakakapagod isipin!

Mainit-init pa rin ba sa inyo ngayon? Mukhang nahaluan na yata ng ambon rito sa amin, bagamat damang-dama ko pa rin ang maalingsangang panahon.

Umulan kanina. Lumamig ng konti, pero nagbalik ang init na sinamahan pa ng alinsangan dahil sa ulan.

2

Huh, I just noticed that the person I replied to is from kbin.social.

IDK if it's still one of those kbin-lemmy interfacing problems, but for whatever it's worth, I'm replying from the lemmy.world website, via a desktop browser.

Yung i nu nuke ko sana tong account na to at mag start fresh sa mas "ethical" na instance, kaso mo laging may JSON error eme tas ayaw ako papuntahin dun da delete account dialogue .__.

Di ko na magami yung Jerboa.

Ano yung "server version (0.17.4) is too low"?

9
lemmy.world

Nasa Playstore na ata Liftoff along with Connect, although wala naman problema if sa Github mo kunin yung apk.

lemmy.world

I used Connect kaso di ko alam kung paano mag share ng image dun.

May added "sort" feature din sa Liftoff.

5

I uninstalled Connect last week so not sure kung pano na controls diyan. Been using Liftoff ever since Jerboa became somewhat incompatible.

have we talked about the elephant? carabao?? hamster on the carabao?? in the room? HAHAHAH i was having a weird morning but it made me chuckle, i love it!

9

There's something about the smile though. Something that kinda feels sinister and threatening. It's like it's about to prod the carabao into a charge.

Today is Teleradyo's last day of broadcast under ABS-CBN. Tomorrow, Q Radio 105.1 signs off and It's Showtime will bid farewell to TV5 before switching places to GTV.

What do yall think of Bubble Gang transferring to Sunday 6 pm and filming in front of a live audience like Banana Split?

8
lemmy.world

How did Banana Split's live show work anyway? Hosts crack a few jokes but mostly introduce prerecorded sketches? Or do they perform all skits live?

4
Yeonturareply
lemmy.world

The last time I had Banana Split (I think it was Banana Sundae) all skits were performed with an audience

6

Having a timeslot after the watershed have given them a character that I doubt would ever be developed had they been aired in a primetime slot.

Even if they can adapt to such a timeslot change, I think it'd end up as being more sanitized and safe for wider audiences which, for a comedy show, I think is a bad thing.

Yung naglalaro ng skyrim may tanong ako.

1.Gaano kadalas umaatake ang mga bampira at dragon sa skyrim?

2.Pwede ba ako magkaroon ng husky pero hindi pa ako miyembro ng vampire hunter sa dawnstar? Ang kyut nila gusto ko kunin at immortal ba sila?

Hindi pc ang gamit ko kundi ang switch.

Brave browser on android. Tried logout/login, clear cache - error talaga. Ok na sana wefwef kasi malinis kaya lang manual formatting sa comments at walang edit comment (or baka di ko a nakikita hehe).

Last post is from "one week ago," so I guess it's at most barely alive.

Just an aside: I can't confirm the dates of the most recent posts and replies too, unlike in Reddit and here in Lemmy by hovering on the right spots (the indicator that says, for example, "9h ago"). I don't know if that's a feature or a bug.

But yeah, going back on topic, if my hunch is right, posting basically stopped around June 14.

lemmy.world

This is such a first world problem thing, I guess, but here goes.

A software update broke my workflow, thus I can't do much work today. If that's not enough, I'm also temporarily swamped with tasks that all of a sudden got dumped on me today. Shit.

To go back up a little bit, a package that I didn't even think would interact with ungoogled-chromium got updated earlier. I did my updates as usual and rebooted once they're done. Nothing seemed to be broken--until I had to open chromium. It flat-out refused to start. Since there's no time to fix whatever had gone wrong, was forced to do testing on Firefox! (It went well somehow, fortunately, except for some visual quirks and UI not working as they have been in chrome.)

I should really just do software updates (and other maintenance stuff) on weekends, but I've been lulled into a false sense of security, and false confidence of being able to quickly fix things when shit does happen. Oh how wrong I was. Lesson learned, I guess?

Does this mini rant belong here? IDK. I just wanted to vent out a little.

I have learned to stop running updates, actually. My last two OS updates (Mac) broke so many things in my dev environment that finding a solution wasn't easy and led me to reformat my computer both times.

I should really think about setting up a backup.

5

Minsan din kasi kailangan ng updates to keep stuff up and running eh. I've been advised when I first installed this OS I'm using (btw), that I should at least go over the list of updated packages in order to at least anticipate any problems and to decide to delay updating until there's enough time to deal with them.

The person who recommended my current OS to me said: "updating is a user error," and while hyperbolic, I'm starting to see where that sentiment is coming from.

And yes, setting up a backup is a really good idea--though I'd be the first to admit that had I not been dragged kicking and screaming into making a back-up, I would never have done it. There's just a big (mental) hurdle, I suppose? Now, my system basically runs a command to sync my files onto a backup. I didn't even have to think about it once the set-up (which is surprisingly minimal, just an rsync command, plus a cron job to run it) has been done.

Sobrang tagal ko na hindi naglalaro ng Dota pero enjoy pa rin ako manood ng mga laban- tulad ngayon sa Bali Major!

ABS-CBN Teleradyo has signed off after 10pm. Teleradyo Serbisyo will replace it by tomorrow.

Just watched Tada Never Falls in Love. A friend like Kaoru Ijyuin is the best. The ultimate definition of a bro
