BitSeek ( @bitseek@beehaw.org ) English24•1 year agoWhat really got me in this great list was Avatar franchise only made it to Avatar 5 in all those years! 😂
nhgeek ( @nhgeek@beehaw.org ) English4•1 year agoMe too! Laughed out loud!
platysalty ( @platysalty@kbin.social ) 8•1 year agoThere is also an anime adaptation of Half-Life 2 Episode 2.5.
And One Piece is going to end next year.

Jordan Lund ( @jordanlund@lemmy.one ) English15•1 year agoAnd he still moved and sounded 80 years old…
crilen ( @crilen@kbin.social ) 5•1 year agoIt’s like the opposite of Johnny Knoxville dressing as an old guy
IceMan ( @IceMan@forum.basedcount.com ) English4•1 year agoI like the original movies and I’m considering to go see it - is it worth it?
Jordan Lund ( @jordanlund@lemmy.one ) English10•1 year agoI put this up as another comment:
No spoilers, for me it felt like it was cutting bits and pieces from the original films and remixing them.
“Oh, this is just like that bit from Raiders where Marian gets kidnapped… Oh, hey, that’s like when the tank ground up against the wall…”
There’s entirely too much of “Well if you liked that, you’ll probably like this…” moments.
Which isn’t always bad, but it doesn’t generate new memories so much as throw back to the others.
Chariotwheel ( @Chariotwheel@kbin.social ) 6•1 year agoYeah. that’s with many of these.
A hommage here and there is nice, but some movies just feel like a remized Frankenstein best-of and feels so artificial.
Jordan Lund ( @jordanlund@lemmy.one ) 2•1 year agoYup, and at that point, you may as well just re-watch the originals.
BruceTwarzen ( @BruceTwarzen@kbin.social ) 1•1 year agoI would say no. All these movies look like dumb marvel movies where nothing looks real anymore.
toothpaste_sandwich ( @toothpaste_sandwich@feddit.nl ) English8•1 year agoCall me blasphemous, but I in fact quite liked the fourth Indy movie. It hit all the right notes for me, nostalgia-wise. I’m curious to see what this one is like.
