Was theater full ?

Including me and my friend, there's a total of like 5 peeps.

The movie is not getting much audience then, unlike Joker which got people interested because of the controversy surrounding it.

Welp, now I'm bit worried how people will respond to Cheetah.

I didn’t even know there was a directors cut if Alien?

Aladdin remake is the most fun I had with a Disney remake since 101 Dalmatians, every other remake I watched bored me. But I gotta say that this movie raises questions about the original movie, like:

Spoiler

• How did Jaafar know about the lamp?
• What and why are the rules of the cave?
• When did Genie count?
• How did he count?
• How does he know when the lamp is rubbed?
• Why must a lamp be rubbed to get him out?

And the last question is aimed at the original story as well, too bad I can't as the author of a story that is centuries old.

But here's a question about the remake;

• Carpet was trapped under a rock but lava never hit him, how did it survive that?
• How did the bird recognize the diamond in the rough when he saw him?

Tough choice. Absolutely cannot go wrong with Terminator or Alien (directors cut).

Terminator.

Terminator it is. And it's the film I prefer of these two.

A decade is simply a period of 10 years. The start date is arbitrary. Neither of you is incorrect.

Its not arbitrary when we’re specifically talking about a decade passing on the calendar year. I get what you’re trying to say, but it doesn’t apply here. If the start date is supposedly arbitrary on a calendar, than a decade passes literally every single year. Hell, if the start date is arbitrary, a decade passes ever single second, of every single day for infinity, because it all depends on when you subjectively started your decade count. What would be more arbitrary, is claiming there is no start date for a decade on the calendar, and that time doesn’t mean anything. That would be like telling your boss that you’ll be at work at 6am, and you stroll in at 3:47pm, he then asks why you’re late, and you tell him that your subjective view of the clock is really 6am, because you arbitrarily count the number of hours the second you wake up. So your 6am is going to be different from everyone else’s time, because time supposedly revolves around you, and not the other way around. Hey, 6hrs went by the second you woke, which means it’s 6am for you, so you must be right, because time is just an arbitrary set of rules that doesn’t mean much of anything. I’m sorry, but this isn’t the way this works.

Claiming time is all just arbitrary is a hippie concept you think about while you get high and play hacky sack with all of your friends from philosophy class. “Bro, time is just an illusion, the end of a decade for me was on March 23rd, 2016....wait, how do I know my March 23rd is the same as your March 23rd? Is my blue the same kind of blue that you see? Does my sour taste like your sweet, and your sweet taste like my sour? Whoaaaaa, we’re all universes.”

On calendar and year talk, I think a decade counts like an age of a baby. When a baby is one year old then he/she entered their second year in life.

Though, when a decade and a century counts I do like to go from 1-10 rather than 0-9 sometimes.

lol, but you can't do that, because our calendar never started on Year 0, it started on Year 1. So if you go all the way back in time when we started our calendar, a decade would pass going into Year 11. Year 11 would be the start of a new decade. We do this, because there is no Year 0. If a TV show has two season, both with 10 episodes per season, episode 11 would be the start of Season 2, because there isn't an "episode 0" that you start counting from. You start counting from episode 1.

How many finger do you have(assuming you have all 10 fingers)? You have 10 fingers, you don't have 9 fingers. But you would count 9 if you started counting with 0, but nobody does that. Nobody starts counting their fingers, zero, one, two, three......nine, and then claiming they have all 9 fingers. This isn't the way you do things, the same way this isn't the way we do things with our calendar. Just because you arbitrarily claim your "9 fingers" is the same as 10 fingers, doesn't mean you actually have 9 fingers....you have 10 fingers.

I'm actually wayyyyy more shocked about this conversation, than any Flat Earth conversation I've ever had. At least that gets into some kind of physics, this is just simple counting and basic time we're talking about. This is stuff you learn about in Kindergarten or 1st grade. I thought my simple TV show analogy a few pages back would put a complete end to this, but nope. My god people, this isn't hard.

It’s Christmas so I can’t read through the whole posts. I’m just saying that when people describe something like the 90s as a decade, they’re referring to the 10 year period between 1990 and 1999. The beginning of 2000 would close out that decade. It has nothing to do with the Year 1 start of the calendar. It’s simply a description of a specific 10 year period.

Yea,

70's
1970 to 1979

80's
1980 to 1989

90's
1990 to 1999

But logically speaking, decade is any ten year period.

 

[Travesty]

Well, all of you 9 fingered Flat Earthers can subjectively describe/count decades in any way you want. Nobody is stopping you, but you're obviously wrong.

Lol we’re just abiding by the definition of the word. I was born in 1990 but I guess I’m not really 3 decades old until 2021 haha.

Like I said before, if you're going to subjectively define a decade in a loose manner, then every second of the day can be considered a new decade for someone who started their arbitrary count 10 years prior. That means last New Years was a new decade for someone. The year before that was a new decade. The year before that was a new decade, etc. What would be the point of counting decades on a calendar, if everybody is starting their count at different times? You basically render the definition meaningless for our calendars, other than donating an arbitrary period of time(ie. ten years). But nobody is doing that to clocks. Nobody is claiming there's a "Zero Hour" on the clock, and the first hour is really "Zero Hour", and the second hour is really "one o'clock", etc. Then terms like noon and midnight would be squirrelly, since some people would be on a different "12 o'clocks". If anybody did that, you would claim they're crazy. But you do it with calendars(which is a long clock), and somehow you think it makes sense. I'm baffled by this. lol

I understand what you're saying, but you're relying on obvious intuitions here. But we don't rely on intuitions for things like time, math or science. I know the Flat Earthers have an intuition that the earth is flat, because they see the ground being flat for as far as the eye can see. That's their intuition. They can have that intuiton all they want, but they're wrong. Just because their intuitions tell them one thing, doesn't mean they're right. Just because you have intuitions of starting all your counts with 0, doesn't mean you have 9 fingers. And just because you started counting a decade at the wrong time on the calendar, doesn't mean we're coming up on a new decade.

 

[Da-Scribe]

Good lord man lol. You’re getting way too deep in this and I’m getting kinda tired of the flat earth comparison. No one is questioning the basic nature of time here. A decade is just 10 years. That’s it. Any 10 year period is a decade regardless of when you start counting. That’s the objective definition of the word. I don’t get how this is difficult to grasp lol.

Oof, I'm gonna have to respectfully disagree. Henry was so bad in The Witcher to me that it's killed any faith I had in him to give me a good Supes. I'm beyond over him now. Time for some new blood. Supes deserves someone with more warmth, charisma and basic talent, imo.

No worries, flick! I know some fans want to move on and some fans still think they got the right actor and want to see Henry get another chance. Judging by your recent posts with thoughts being known, I know you squarely fall under the former. I think the roles Henry has taken on, he's played the same tone and chacteristics of the same traits of each character. I want to see him with a director that will allow him to spread his personality more, but I also know Henry like the badass stuff. It'll be this rendezvous until something is more concrete. I can't wait for new Superman news either way.

Well... Last night was definitely disappointing.

Not only we didn't get the Tenet prologue, in a legit IMAX theater as a matter of fact, TRoS was just ****ing terrible. I can't believe they did what they did... Holy ****.

Is it safe to assume that Attack of the Clones is more entertaining? I do find the second of the prequels entertaining.

Imagine that movie is just a dream, a bad dream, and let your memories of it being a thing fade away into non-existence.
