    I think this is the first time I’ve seen avatar mentioned in nearly a year. Weird how a movie series that popular generates so little discussion.

      I mean, a lot of people spent a lot of time discussing the first one, it just boiled down to

      “It’s sci-fi Dances With Wolves, and it made a load of money.”

      The sequel is the same thing, but with whales and even more explicit environmentalism/anti-colonialism

      All of the social criticism is correct, but, like, do something about it, billionaire filmmaker? The discussion time is over.

        “It’s sci-fi Dances With Wolves, and it made a load of money.”

        Sci-fi Pocahontas is more accurate, but yeah, there’s just not much to talk about beyond the effects.

        And some people can talk at length about an aspect of the franchise (?) that isn’t even a movie.

      It’s because the movie is entirely about people of color (blue)

        Nah, it’s because the dirty liberals changed them from their original skin color.

      It was the same with the first one. No one talked about it at all after it left theaters. I’ll never understand how these movies were such big hits.

        Yellowstone is an incredibly popular series but it’s not really talked about either online

        “no one talked about it at all”

        I’ve been parts of discussions about the movie, and we’re also in one now.

        No need for hyperboles

      Probably because it wasn’t any good? I couldn’t even get 20 minutes into my rental to get to the plot.

        I saw it in IMAX 3D when it came out because I knew I wouldn’t be able to enjoy it at all at home. I was fighting sleep the entire last half, I kept waking up seeing something I thought was cool and trying to stay awake, but I still slept through most of the last ACT

About this community and how I post the comics… Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips. Of course these days you can read your favorite comics online instead of a newspaper, but I love the nostalgia of reading the daily comics. Anyway, one of my favorite current comics is Cyanide and Happiness and I will be posting the daily release from their website (https://explosm.net/) and a an extra or two randoms.
