this post made me and my gf go back and watch the oscar-winning movie happy feet. i looked up the director, george miller, and found out happy feet is only his SECOND most profitable franchise. he is best known as the director of all the mad max films.
to present some information for those who have not seen happy feet: the penguins are animated, but the few humans in the film are live-action. the film has two main messages: accept those who are different than you, and a pro-environmentalism message about stopping ocean pollution and overfishing. spoilers for this 13-year-old movie, but it ends with the main character managing to get the humans to stop polluting and overfishing through the power of dance. meanwhile, mad max is a postapocalyptic series.
so… i propose a theory. happy feet and mad max take place in the same universe, but in different timelines. in the good timeline (the happy feet canon), mumble convinces the humans to stop destroying the earth using the power of dance. this leads into happy feet 2. in the bad timeline (the mad max canon), mumble fails to convince the humans. the penguin colony dies out, humans destroy the earth, and the mad max movies happen a few thousand years after happy feet 1.
Listen to me, Chipmunk. Sorry. I made a mistake. So many mistakes. Look, I know that you’re mad at me and you have every right to be. I need you to put those feelings aside and do something for me. I need you to run away as fast as you can.
One of the weirdest opinions/criticisms(?) I’ve heard from a couple people at the theater after The Batman ended was “I liked Spider-Man (No Way Home) better.”
Like?? I know what you like is down to personal preference and all that, like if you just personally vibed with NWH more then I get that, but, this just doesn’t make sense to me…
The Batman and Spider-Man: NWH are wildly different films in terms of story, characters, universe, tone….how are they comparable? Just because they’re both superhero/comic book films??
I enjoyed both movies for different reasons, but they’re not really comparable in my mind. Both movies are their own thing entirely.
Stop lumping all comic book films together like they’re all a single genre (people need to stop doing the same to animated films as well).
I don’t know what kind of special burritos they’re feeding kids in Norway, but they’re flying around under the power of their own farts. At least, that’s the premise of Doctor Proctor’s Fart Powder, which is like Legend of Korra‘s Meelo and The Rocketeer mashed together into what is probably the perfect children’s movie.
Dinosaurs and man, two species separated by sixty-five million years of evolution have just been suddenly thrown back into the mix together. How can we possibly have the slightest idea what to expect?
