It's a movie for little kids where Spacey's consciousness gets placed into a cat, who then does cat memes for about 80 minutes. Here's how it ended.

My then 3 year old daughter balled her eyes out.
I'm a big fan of the idea of an Oscars pitting Kendrick Lamar, Eminem, Lil' Yachty, Lady Gaga, and Lin-Manuel Miranda against one another.
Ok, I have questions now.
Spacey just indiscriminately killed a cat so he could badly attempt to save his son's life?!?
That had a parachute?
Because...what?!?

The movie had to end, so the cat had to splat.
This is a film with an 11 on Metacritic. you don't get there through logical consistency.
Parents deserve a purple heart for enduring their children's media consumption
Don't forget about Post Malone
He's got a song for Spider-Verse coming
Do your parents have an entire wing of their house for medals then?
But how is it for little kids when the cat-teh has to die at the end?
That would be traumatic for a child.

Spacey's film daughter got a new cat at the end, so she was fine with it. Just like real life.
Only time I can remember dragging a parent to something was Batman returns, my mom took me and my little sister. We both proceeded to fall asleep(we use to play outside in the georgia heat, crazy) after the opening and woke up just in time for the finale battle.
Only if they play baseball later.Just swap out all the graduation caps for medals.
Can we talk about how creepy it is for a dude to spend his immortality hanging out in high schools?Just swap out all the graduation caps for medals.
The whole twilight thing is just weird world building. So this dude turns people into vampires and kinda of keeps them as emotional support animals?
What the fuck! How many times did this pervert graduate High School and seduce young girls!Just swap out all the graduation caps for medals.
There's lots of creepy shit in twilight. Lots.
The whole imprinting thing with Jake and the baby immediately comes to mind
How about the werewolf that falls in love with a cgi baby?
Better than falling in love with a creepy doll.

I wish that I could at that Nine Lives was the worst talking cat movie that my daughter insisted on watching on Netflix. Alas:

Jesus, who OKed that?
Netflix replaced the Walmart DvD bin a long time ago
So I take it not a lot of us will be going to this event? https://www.fathomevents.com/events/twilight-10th-anniversary
Someone how didn't want to deal with a crying kid on set. Also that is a demon.
Yeah but that prolly doesn't have a cat DYING in a worthless attempt to save someone's life.

It didn't make her cry, so I guess that was a plus. But the next time that someone calls a mediocre film the worst that they have ever seen, they should watch this:

I hate to break anyone's hearts here but Gary Oldman is actually a piece of shit.

I didn't even need to make it past the production card to feel pity for you.
Did those kittens just pull a Santa Clause? Do they get fat now?
This isn't a thing that's going to make anybody care about said characters.
Venom really is all Sony has working for em.
You didn't even have the sense to at least buy a ticket for something else, and you're complaining about everyone else supporting it? Lmao
A number of tickets sold were probably people who just wanted to witness the fuckery themselves, but that's all voting for more of it. Good job.
Venom and ASIB likely would have done better without the other, but a 40m OW is pretty good considering the kind of budget it might have. Another strong W for Lady Gaga. I guess she really does conquer what we she sets her mind to at a given time. I wonder if she'll keep on the acting front for the next while or redirect her primary focus back to music.
Spider-verse though. Silk could do something, and morbius might do decently as a lower budget Halloween film. I think that Silver and Black (whatever form it takes) could also do decently, but it certainly would have to live or die on its merits, unlike Venom.
Really Spider-verse raises a tone of potential questions about what Sony can and can't get away with (and I imagine that they can technically get away with more than they have, but concerns about the relationship with Disney make everything quite calculated)

I enjoyed Venom and my wife loved it more than me. It was funnier than I thought with some good action. And it was gory in the slightest, obviously because of PG13.
I would watch the sequel.

This looks like a parody of a movie you would see in Scary Movie.
The audience seem to like it....
Critics taking the L. As expected
I always thought a lot of wasted talent went into making that film, ONLY the first one. It's a gorgeous looking film, aesthetically speaking.
So of course they shitcanned the director after the first movie.
(See also: Fifty Shades)
People here were pretty sure no one cared about Venom and here we are.
80 million opening for Venom is great and surprising.
You are delusional. The bar has been high since X-Men 2 and Spidey 1-2 and it was brought up by TDK. Phase 3 has not raise the bar.
I honestly feel like phase 3 sort of spun it's wheels a bit. We got some good films that raised the bar for MCU titles, but there was a bit of 'been there, done that' and it completely failed at actually building to Thanos. Tony was also continuously regulated to guest appearances instead of having another movie to move his character forward organically, and Antman 2 was a bit of a dud. Phase 3 wasn't by any means bad, but I wouldn't say that anything in phase 3 set benchmarks like Logan, SM1/SM2, or TDK. Heck I'd still put Baleman 1 over a good amount of MCU titles.
Edit: I forgot that BP is phase three, that movie I would make some arguments for it to be sure (!)
Though maybe this is an issue of phrasing, do we mean 'raise the bar' as in set a new benchmark? Or do we mean it as raised the bar for overall quality on a cumulative basis?
