    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    Great to see that Lego Batman continues to be a draw. Hopefully it will be strong enough to beat out the Lionsgate-distributed Rock Dog next week, some Chinese co-production that was a major flop there. But compared to Norm of the North, it still looks way more appealing...

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    Very happy to see that The Lego Batman Movie managed to overcome Fifty Shades Darker, unlike the 2nd SpongeBob movie against Fifty Shades of Grey from 2 years prior. The latter even managed to make about half as much as its predecessor in its opening week, and about a quarter of the worldwide...

    The New Am I The Only One Thread

    Am I the only one who thinks that certain stock sound FX are way overused and need to die? The biggest one to me is that one group of angry cats, which is the Wilhelm Scream of animal sounds. From what I've heard, it was recorded about 30 years ago and was first used in DuckTales. I know not...

    The Steven Universe thread

    It was really nice to see Connie, Peridot, Lapis, and Pumpkin get extra screen time by showing them how they picked up the slack while the Crystal Gems were away, only for it to go awry when they try too hard to ape the Gems rather than be themselves.

    Behold... the New Teen Titans Cartoon...

    "Movie Night" was a fun episode. I'd say if they're going to make episodes where the Titans are confined in the tower, they might as well go all out with the action, horror, suspense, and mystery, and that they did. Certainly was better than the lost opportunity of the last episode where they...

    The Amazing World of Gumball Thread

    Definitely a fun and much deserving episode, especially with the reasoning behind why Chi Chi (as the goat character is called here) doesn't have a sister. Also, the "cowboy caviar" was another shockingly dirty joke that slipped past the censors. :D

    Super Bowl LI: New England Patriots vs. Atlanta Falcons

    Also, it was really nice to see George Bush Sr. leading the coin toss after recovering from his surgery.

    Super Bowl LI: The Commercials

    Nothing in this set of commercials really excited me, yet nothing really enraged me either. I give props to GoDaddy for not using sex to sell their stuff, instead using a human personification of the Internet spouting various Internet memes and all that. Also props to Nintendo for their...

    Super Bowl LI: New England Patriots vs. Atlanta Falcons

    I gotta say, that was a very suspenseful game. Even though it started out slow, it really began to pick up once the Falcons scored the first touchdown. And though they were in the lead, the Patriots really picked up the pace during the 4th quarter, tying the game and causing it to go into...

    The Wander over Yonder Thread

    At least there are no nominations that are undeserving.

    The Charlie Brown and Snoopy Thread!

    Hopefully the Schulz family will remain as protective as ever of their property regardless of ownership.

    Super Bowl LI: New England Patriots vs. Atlanta Falcons

    I'd like for the Falcons to win, which didn't happen since the last time that were at the Super Bowl back in '99. The Patriots have enough Vince Lombardi trophies already.

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    The first one came out back in 2014, and performed well enough. And hey, it's also an original film. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Wick

    The Worst CGI Kid Films In Recent Memory

    You know, with Disney going totally nuts making live-action versions of their animated movies, what I would really like to see is one of Bambi, made more faithful to Felix Salten's darker, more adult book. Keep the Austrian setting and their native-to-Austria roe deer species. Restore the cut...

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    So M. Night Shyamalan's Split is at the top for the 2nd weekend in a row (and is getting positive reviews, amazingly enough), while A Dog's Purpose sits in a comfy 2nd place. Despite all the controversies over alleged animal abuse, it came out fairly unscathed. And then there's Resident Evil...

    RIP John Hurt

    We Muppet fans should know him best as the titular character on Jim Henson's The Storyteller. He was even the voice of Hazel in the Watership Down movie.

    The "Adventure Time" Thread

    They've been showing new episodes from the new season this week. So far, we had a two-parter with Grass Finn trying to find meaning in his life, an episode where Jake tries to connect with a skater punk granddaughter he didn't know he had, one of Tree Trunks having a second extraterrestrial...

    The Funny Picture Thread

    I like how the Sesame Street cover uses Samson from their version of the show. Seems like some of these use special German-created content.

    Bravest Warriors

    Bravest Warriors should be held up as the gold standard when it comes to web cartoons aimed at teens to young adults. That along with Bee and Puppycat and RWBY.

    New Justice League cartoon CONFIRMED

    You know, I find it very surprising that this show has Cyborg, even though Teen Titans Go is still around. He's even voiced by Khary Payton. Maybe DC is slowly loosening their ridiculous Bat Embargo that prevents certain characters from being used in concurrent properties?
