No, even being a kids movie couldn’t save this pile of crap. Even the crappiest kids movies have some heart. Like Dogman was legitimately fucking stupid, but it had heart to it, I cared about the characters despite how stupid it all was. A Minecraft Movie fails in every measure to have characters you care about at all. I feel nothing for these idiotic jabronis breezing through the film, the writing and acting is legitimately that bad.
I personally found it on soulseek, most trackers are avoiding it because pre-release brings extra heat.
Seriously, I watched the leaked workprint. It’s really, really bad. Bad script, bad acting, bad styling, just bad bad bad. First time I’ve legitimately seen Jack Black phone it in.
Not actually all that surprising.
Surgery recovery slowly continues. A lot of time in bed reading and watching televsion. Kinda going out of my mind with boredom.
Y’all are just really desperate to kill any remaining faith I had in humanity that they aren’t all stupid selfish jerks, huh?
Keep it.
Dr. Zoidberg? More like Bender.
The above is actually similar for the US. If no one lays claim to it, it becomes yours. It’s really hard to prove the source of a wad of cash with no evidence of ownership (like not being in a wallet), so it actually often ends up going to the person who found it.
I remember the pre-Youtube internet where we created content because it was fun or educational, not because we needed money for the task of doing so.
Paying for server costs and maintaining them, sure. MetaFilter has a good system for that, they’re effectively a non-profit and have a donation structure and paid admins and moderators. The rest of the people on the site, they just make good content for the sake of making good content, not because they feel the need to be paid for their time doing it.
God I miss the pre-Youtube era. “Content creators” looking for a payday via advertising are a fucking cancer.
I have watch history disabled
Man how many people fail to fucking read this is literally re-enforcing my point that maybe more people need to read. This me, quoting myself, from above. Further, someone else made the same kind of comment over a half hour ago and I responded the same, noting that I had already mentioned that I have watch history disabled, so Youtube does not and cannot give me recommendations based on my watch history.
I actually almost never watch Youtube except for the odd video game trailer or random comedy-shit-post-snippet. I don’t have any subscriptions or channels I care about. I read.
Kinda scary you get recommendations like that just due to no history.
Agreed.

Their ability to trample rights because of how much profit they make from horrible content is directly related to their ability to give you that space for free. “I’m not directly contributing” is a real weak excuse to keep using it, in my personal opinion.

And I’m saying you’re not paying for it, and that’s the problem. Everyone got way too comfortable with getting “free” shit from corporations that would trample our rights the second it became convenient for them.
Yeah, that’s some projection. You weren’t being disingenuous to pretend that videos are more helpful to the blind than braille? Get a grip.
We’re talking about a company that is happily trampling over the rights of individuals right now, you don’t think the disabled won’t be next on their chopping block?
How about the blind and dyslexic
Last I checked braille exists and so do tools for dyslexic readers. There are literally braille terminals for the blind. Hell, the first time I saw one was in the film Sneakers in 1992.
It’s actually very easily argued that the push to touch-screen and video everything is what is actually ableist and making braille be used far less because companies are more worried about what’s cheap than what is actually useful.
dumpstering Tesla and calling it a worthless stock.
Oh, so it’s just wall street dick sucking and pretending the whole “market” isn’t just a rigged game? Counts as right-wing slop to me.
Is that the platforms fault?
Considering we have a fuck-ton of evidence from research that it isn’t just what other people watch that determines it: Yes, it is actually. Sorry these aren’t fucking videos so that you’ll actually pay attention to them.

A lot of defense for a company that is literally in the process of saying “fuck your rights” to the same people being attacked in a lot of these videos. Jesus christ.
The workprint leak came a day before the official release, the plot and cut of the film is exactly the same. It’s just missing a significant amount of the effects.
