About this community and how I post the comics… Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips. Of course these days you can read your favorite comics online instead of a newspaper, but I love the nostalgia of reading the daily comics. Anyway, one of my favorite current comics is Cyanide and Happiness and I will be posting the daily release from their website (https://explosm.net/) and a an extra or two randoms.

I think this is the first time I’ve seen avatar mentioned in nearly a year. Weird how a movie series that popular generates so little discussion.

I mean, a lot of people spent a lot of time discussing the first one, it just boiled down to

"It's sci-fi Dances With Wolves, and it made a load of money."

The sequel is the same thing, but with whales and even more explicit environmentalism/anti-colonialism

All of the social criticism is correct, but, like, do something about it, billionaire filmmaker? The discussion time is over.

“It’s sci-fi Dances With Wolves, and it made a load of money.”

Sci-fi Pocahontas is more accurate, but yeah, there's just not much to talk about beyond the effects.

I always heard it was fern gully remake.

And some people can talk at length about an aspect of the franchise (?) that isn't even a movie.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago (2 children)

It's because the movie is entirely about people of color (blue)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Nah, it’s because the dirty liberals changed them from their original skin color.

No, I mean the original in 1991

A grungy sort of beige plaid?

Yes, blue environmentalists who live in the woods.

It was the same with the first one. No one talked about it at all after it left theaters. I'll never understand how these movies were such big hits.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Yellowstone is an incredibly popular series but it's not really talked about either online

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

"no one talked about it at all"

I've been parts of discussions about the movie, and we're also in one now.

No need for hyperboles

Probably because it wasn't any good? I couldn't even get 20 minutes into my rental to get to the plot.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

After i watched the first one there's no way im going to sit through another 4 parts

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I saw it in IMAX 3D when it came out because I knew I wouldn't be able to enjoy it at all at home. I was fighting sleep the entire last half, I kept waking up seeing something I thought was cool and trying to stay awake, but I still slept through most of the last ACT

I guess it didn't make any meme material?
