it would be good for me personally if Elon Musk bought D&D or whatever because then it would go back to being lame again and less people would talk about it

Honestly transformers one deserves a medal for being the first transformers. Thing. In like five years to make me actually like and want to see bumblebee
#God I was. Look okay the market. The transformers market. Is SO oversaturated with bumblebee#Stop making him the protagonist of things please I just want to see ONE new character just one just one new guy#Like he's familiar I get it. The audience knows him. Cute little guy#But also I do not care get him off of my SCREEN#It's not even that I DISLIKE bumblebee. As a character. I liked him in the 80s I liked him in Bumblebee 2018 I liked him in prime#I am just. SO tired of seeing him in EVERYTHING#Bumblebee oversaturation is real and it could happen to you#Anyways tf1 made him fun again. He's quirky. he's silly. He's not an audience surrogate or an inexperienced kid for the adults to teach he'#Literally just some guy. I missed when Bumblebee was just some guy#Also his crippling loneliness and isolation in the dumpster? Yeah man I get it#Also he was funny. Call me a middle schooler but he was FUNNY. I giggled#And even the jokes that didn't land I was never like Oh brother this guy STINKS. And I think that's because the jokes and bee himself never#Overstayed their welcome#So yeah good for them for making me actually like bumblebee again. I genuinely thought it couldn't be done#He's my friend and I like him :)#This is incomprehensible sorry I just really want to share my thoughts on tfone and I haven't had the energy to make any written analysis#And I don't have a car. So I can't watch it in theatres again#Watch in in theatres for me. Please#transformers one#Transformers#Also badassatron was funny I'll die on this hill#Sorry it WAS funny until it became my partner's vocal stim and now they must be SLAIN

quite pleasantly surprised by wicked movie but i Will say we were robbed of elphaba leaning in close to glinda saying “come with me to the emerald city” followed by glinda’s “i’ve always wanted to see the emerald city” while looking deep into her eyes arms around her shoulders twirling elphaba’s hair
#not sure if this was unique to the last time i saw wicked but either way. shoutout to those two leads fr 😘✌🏻 <- that’s me kissing#two fingers and holding them out btw#personal#other notes:#- fiyero looked too old sorry but he did perform pretty well#- still unreasonably annoyed by ariana’s eyebrows being so pale and blending into her skin under certain lightings esp when they gave her#giant black lashes like at least be consistent 💀#- otherwise pretty pleasantly surprised by her performance there were still moments esp when she laughed where i was like this is too#‘ariana’ and not ‘glinda’ enough but for the most part she did wayyy better than i had anticipated#- the instrumentation to vocal balancing was weird throughout but i’m not sure if that came down mostly to it being in theatre vs on a home#tv ik it can depend on how they designed it#- was not a fan of nessa or madame morrible the way both of them sang and even how madame morrible spoke sometimes came off very stilted to#me i did like nessa’s spoken delivery tho#- not sure how but i had no clue abt the kristen/idina cameo ahjdf the way my mom#grandma and me all gasped#- cynthia did well i wasn’t concerned abt her initially but then saw the way they were marketing with her and got a little worried bc it#wasn’t very ‘elphaba’ but she portrayed her personality great#- they paced defying gravity weird i wasn’t super fond of the end. the bit where she’s falling and facing her younger self i was like okay#this is a cool change actually but then they interrupted in the middle again after that and suddenly cut to the ‘nobody in all of oz’ bit#and i went mmmm don’t like that#- liked the effects!#- wasn’t overly fond of jeff goldblum as the wizard but i suppose there is time to change my opinion there with act ii#- enjoyed what is this feeling flipping btwn so many settings to show how much they were clashing in every respect#- costumes!!#- was slightly bothered by autotune first half and then im not sure if they cut back on it or if i just got used to it#- probably more stuff that i might add later but can’t think of rn. overall nice experience don’t plan on rewatching anytime soon but still#intend to see part 2#wicked 2024 spoilers#<- for the cameo mention mainly

#taking a break from finals to read an article about how unique ip is dying because studios will only fund stuff with nostalgia they can sell#and how the wicked movie is no different#and the first comment was an essay written by a theatre kid who never grew up that pissed me off so bad it made me feel dizzy#i know i need to finish writing abt religious ceremonies but i would rather talk about how much marketing has destroyed every medium of art#and people's ability to think about art

the official twitter being this out of pocket in june of all months is making me laugh
#i love it. genius marketing unfortunately#i'm just a gay man. show me two men getting handsy and i'm seated in the theatre#also: this is the definition of queerbaiting. not real people being affectionate or fictional characters being headcanon'd lol#not complaining! would happily be queerbaited into watching austin smoke cigarettes and ride motorbikes if i wasn't already gonna watch! <3#just pointing it out bc the amount of terrible takes i see on queerbaiting every day physically hurts#queerbaiting is purposefully marketing smth not queer in a queer way to get queer audiences to watch#it is not something real people do and it's not smth fanfiction does xoxo#johnslittlespoon yaps

Finally read Wonder Woman Historia because of your posts about it and damn. goddamn. that was fucking life-changing. literally what the fuck this should be a required read for every single comic book fan to ever exist. fuck
YES OMG THATS WHAT IM SAYINGGGGGGGGGG
(Also yesss got one mwahahaha I'm literally so glad you read it because of me omg 🤗🫶)
No but truly like life-changing sounds intense but is honestly the word for it. Like at least personally I can't emphasize the impact that book has had on me? I first read it about a year ago and finished it just SOBBING. I wasn't even a Wonder Woman fan before reading it. I wasn't even a Wonder Woman fan before reading it. Like do you understand I now run a Wonder Woman blog, I own multiple WW articles of clothing and my entire wall is covered in WW issues and items. If I had to list my top 5 books (not comics, books) of all time Wonder Woman: Historia would be an automatic contender. I reread it constantly, and bring my giant ass hardcover that is too tall for every bookshelf everywhere. It is constantly on my mind.
Anyways just sooooooo so glad you got a chance to read it (especially because of me!!!) because Historia is truly my favorite comic out there and I think it's one of the best things from the medium as a whole : )
Anyways all you folks listening this is you sign to READ WONDER WOMAN: HISTORIA!!!
#when i say i wasnt a wonder woman fan before reading it i dont mean to say i didnt like her or wasnt interested in her#i was (and am) a girl and like superheroes and wonder woman had shown up in the various dc cartoons i grew up with#and id watched and liked wonder woman (2016) back when it came out in theatres etc.#but as a kid it was always kind of clear to me that the trinity was presented as a marketing thing but it always felt like#batman superman & also Woman. like it seemed a very obvious “oh and btw we have women here too!” in a way that wasnt really backed up or#shown in anything i was watching. like wondy has never had an animated series. never had a mainstream movie before 2016. was there but not#well developed or shown in any of the series she did show up in. and kid me definitely wasn't watching the lynda carter series because it#wasnt airing anyways!#like i was a dc fan for a few years had read a good amt of comics already seen at least some of most dc series' out there and yet had like#never really been introduced to who is diana and hippolyta and the amazons like that in a way that clicked#like i had all the ingredients to be an atrocious wonder woman fan all lined up but that book is so good it set me off like a nuclear bomb#this land has been irradiated w it for generations to come

The Color Purple being the one musical movie within the past few years to actually be successful at the box office is SO well deserved. It’s such an incredible movie that I really really really want to watch again!
#hoping that this means that hollywood will start marketing musicals as musicals now#since the color purple is doing incredible numbers at the box office right now#can’t stop thinking about this movie#like despite telling a story that’s been told three times before#it still manages to make the story feel new and refreshing#and i love that this movie focuses more on celie healing and finding community with all the women that are in her life#like the other adaptations do also have that#but i feel like this movie really focused more on that aspect#the color purple#the color purple musical#the color purple 2023#theatre

seeing a job listing for FOH, and would be really tempted to go for it but the wage is £11.96p/h... IN CENTRAL LONDON?? i earn more than that now in a coffee shop in a medium size welsh town???
should I apply anyways?? maybe get a second job too, i could transfer coffee shop and only do early mornings?? I'm also doing a masters so might be a little difficult with 2 jobs + working towards a degree but it could lead to something much more as i'm wanting to work in live theatre marketing anyway....
(and i'm absolutely dying to live in London)
#idk what to tag or who's gonna see this but if anyone has some wise words pls reply!!#London#London jobs#live theatre#musicals#live theatre marketing#arts marketing

So, I don’t know if I’m the only one who noticed this, but with the exception of Barbie, am I the only one who thinks most movies recently have been really poorly marketed?
Like, Oppenheimer was a critical success but I think we can agree the marketing team did an abysmal job - like Christopher Nolan’s name definitely sold plenty of tickets but for the most part, it seems they just let the Barbieheimer memes carry them to the finish line.
Now, I’m not sure if this is related to the strike, if marketing teams for movies completed before it but not released yet are striking or if they’re one of the exceptions that was carved out - which, if they’re striking, good for them, but if not, I don’t think they’re doing very good jobs. I think a good example of this is A Haunting In Venice. This movie comes out in less than a month, and I haven’t seen a single trailer for this movie despite going to the movies several times over the past few months, and while my local theatre does have a poster up for it, this is it.
Now, this is a bad poster. The only thing it’s inspired in us is confusion. After Indiana Jones and Barbie and all the Ghibli Fest movies we’ve gone to we’ve stood and looked at this poster and all we’ve felt is confusion. I mean, we recognized that that’s the actor who played Hercule Poirot in Death on the Nile and Murder on the Orient Express, but did that mean this was another one of those or is it a mere coincidence that he’s in another movie? Actors do that, you know, they play multiple roles. And especially since the Agatha Christie book this is based on is actually called something different, it really doesn’t convey enough information to actually get people interested, I feel.
So I took five minutes and improved it. I feel this poster is 50% more likely to sell tickets because it’s at least 75% more informative and has 100% more false advertising because I couldn’t resist.
#a haunting in Venice#Agatha Christie#Tina fey#michelle yeoh#kenneth branagh#Taylor swift#like I’m not a marketing major or anything#but I really feel like so many movies recently have fallen short#and after the runaway success of Mario and Barbie#we can no longer blame the pandemic#marketing is just… marketing is dropping the ball these days#what’s gotten me into the theatre lately?#well mainly Ghibli fest because I really enjoy Miyazaki movies#and I haven’t seen so many of them#(like tonight I’m going to wind rises and I haven’t seen it before)#Barbie which was marketed so well and looked so fun#and Indiana Jones because we were bored and there was a showing in twenty minutes and you know I love archeology professors#I just feel like at this point failure to market well is a big reason cinema is dying

like let me be clear. it's nostalgia-poisoned market products when they’re bad and insightful uses of adaptation and medium when i like them
#t#scope me implying my taste is objective. it's true#i have very complex feelings about this subject.#most of which boil down to: it's not nostalgia i like it right now#like pleaseee be descriptive. it's profiting off people's feelings of nostalgia AND it doesn't engage with the source material in a loving#or meaningful way. the first part certainly informs it but my issue is with the latter#and i dislike an argument that purely focused on the nostalgia part. like yes it sucks there is such an emphasis on it but let's say#something more insightful#i'm pro-adaptation and pro-reboot (umbrella term) because i think it's an inherently interesting way to look at art that meant something to#someone or to many people. in the style of theatre. i am against it in the sense of market influences and oversaturation#girl on film said it very well. that's all i have to say on it now.#i'm sure my current fixation is super opaque and nobody can figure out what i'm reading right now
