You should check out the end credits for “Ferris Buellers Day Off” and then the closing credits for “Deadpool.” 😆😆

Actually, no, but I’ll check them out though! The Tecmo Bowl artwork is really familiar; I’ve seen that image in ads

For real??? That’s garbage

I read somewhere else that no one expected this movie to do so well. This and the Taylor Swift Eras tour is killing it!!

It seemed like a cash grab from the trailer and yet you paid to see it in the movie theater, and helped it set a record, which is what this article is about.

Sure, there is a path to do that if you keep your Xbox off the internet. But then you lose multiplayer with friends, being able to download new games, etc.

Would it be better to edit posts and change them to nonsense? Random poems, list of dog breeds, song lyrics, random SQL code…

How about instead of deleting, you edit the comment so it’s taken completely out of context. Nonsense words, random poems, list of colors, etc.

Ok alright. Even with the whole Reddit debacle and obvious attention/traffic grab…r/place seems to be working. I just spent 4 minutes staring little pixel details now present in day 2.

Probably the best collaborative creative idea to come from Reddit.

The Hunger Games trilogy - People live in concentric rings with the outer rings providing resources to the center Capital. The people in the Capital are depicted with insane crazy fashion while everyone else wears dirty grey Gap cloths.

City of God - a pair of orphan street rats in Brazil try to survive. As one turns to crime, the other tries to go distance himself.

Ah, Snowpiercer…where the rich people live in the front of the train and poor in the back. A train that never stops, because it’s a dystopian ice world outside. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

Just do it! I would suggest just start writing. Editors and technology can help you cover some of your issues. What sort of books are we talking about? 200+ page nonfiction? IMO writing a book is an endeavor.

Find a platform somewhere and write short stories, whether it be your family and friends or somewhere on the Internet. Check out https://lemmy.world/c/writingprompts (even bigger on Reddit). Write blog posts. Write write write. Maybe exploring those partial ideas. Collect all your writing in one area so that you can look back at it and see progress.

1-star ratings are not funny though

Google and Facebook were both built on ad-based internet. So…until privacy is respected, cookies go away, and more importantly, people did not buy things based on ads, yeah ad-based internet stands a chance. I did a quick search on how big the digital advertising market is and there are various numbers being reported m. I’ll give you the lowest one—$~200 billion

Yeah sorry, luck of the draw—be born into a family that has money. Else, make that money, retire early, and let your kids have a better life.

Probably lack of marketing. It just is what it is. If you want to see what the latest #dance is or #icebucketchallenge, that’s probably on TikTok, Instagram, or Twitter…it’s easier for influencers to monetize their content.

On-screen kissing doesn’t bother me, just don’t like the ones that seemed forced or are cheesy.

Racked my mind for good examples, and came up with Tobey Spider-Man kissing Mary Jane upside down in the rain and Jack and Rose’s first kiss on the deck of the Titanic.

Jealousy is a huge motivator. Having to do something for a purpose is even better. What do you want to do? Because the endeavors you mentioned don’t happen overnight. When your sitting at your desk solving some problem that you didn’t even anticipate and you’re not even doing that thing you set out to do, it’s hard to stay motivated. So, what is it about those endeavors that you mentioned piques your interest?

So, anybody know Taylor Swift?

Can you move a community once it’s created?
