So who plans on not watching?


I am!

reply

Oh i'm watching. Probably opening day. I want the "Crowd Experience" for this one. Good or bad. I want a very clean impression before social media beats it to death. Spoilers on this bad boy are gonna be completely unavoidable.

Its still too dangerous to sit in a crowded theater because of Covid

uhmm... joke?

Whats the joke?

reply

you.

I'll watch it, but most likely on video only. The reviews would have to be thunderous for me to consider going to the theater.

reply

This new trailer looks like crap... I'm definitely skipping it.

I would go only with a bag of rotten tomatos.

Just to nitpick a little bit; you don't have to PLAN to not do something, because 'not doing' is already your default mode. You wake up 'doing nothing', then you decide to DO things.

People function that way - they only plan for things they are GOING to do, which is why asking 'why not' is illogical and somewhat insane as well. No one decides NOT to do something every day for every single thing they could theoretically be doing, otherwise, there'd be no time for anything else (and you couldn't finish that list in a day anyway, let alone every day).

I don't have to plan to NOT watch something, to end up not watching that something. All I have to do is refrain from making a plan TO watch it.

"I don't plan to watch it" is VERY different from "I plan to not watch it".

You can just passively 'not do' something, but your way requires actual EFFORT of planning, even though the result is the same.

Have you ever heard the saying that only insane people work very hard, wise people get away with extending much less effort? (I am paraphrasing)

It's better to just not do anything about it, it'd be downright stupid to plan to 'not do' something, as this 'planning' already requires doing at least something. Not planning to do anything is effortless, as you don't even have to plan to plan to not do something.

Just be. It's that simple.

You remind me of theman18, he likes talking pointless philosophies too, though sometimes he hits on a subject that interests me.

The purpose of the post is, I'm making a statement that I'm not supporting Kathleen Kennedy's stupid, disgusting fanfiction and destruction of the Indiana Jones franchise by not going to the theater and putting money in hers and Lucasfilm's pockets for a movie that will be weapons-grade dog crap, which is pretty much what she's been churning out since 2015. Bad enough she's shat all over Star Wars, I don't need to see what kind of destruction she does to Indiana Jones as well.

YOU GO GIRL!

I'll watch it, but only for free. (Stream or "something else"). How you doin?

reply

No, I'm not interested anymore after Crystal Skull and the new Star Wars movies. Probably check it for free if its on telly in a few years.

reply

^ That's where I'm at too.

It's not that I'm actively against it as such, I just don't really care...

reply

Anyone who hands over money for this dogshit will just encourage the filming and release of more dogshit.

reply

Not been released yet, nor reviewed so how is it dog shit?

reply

Are you really that naive?

reply

NO...YOU ARE JUST REALLY THAT NEGATIVE.
