  • I don’t even disagree that it’s a fine headline, but this community shits its pants everytime an article isn’t extremely accurate in it’s headline, so it’s funny to suddenly have an army of people descent upon this comment section to defend specifically this one.

    “Some” would be more useful in this instance, as it would distinguish it from the general case. That’s pretty standard behaviour for news headlines too, right? This study does not concern itself with iron age populations in general but specifically celtic communities between 100 BC and 100 AD in Britain.




  • Viewing habits have changed, that’s no secret. People go to the theatre more as a social event than just as an avenue to watch a movie. In most places there are ways to go to the theatre relatively cheaply if you make the effort. Don’t get drinks and food, go during the weekday instead of weekends, matinées, some theatres have loyalty programs, smaller movies are also typically cheaper, etc.

    If you want the big blockbuster premium experience, then you’ll pay premium prices, but that’s not the only way to see movies in theatres.

















  • Superhero movies are not flopping, dead on arrival capeshit schlock that no one asked for in the first place is flopping. Aquaman made 400 million dollars on a 200 million budget just in December.

    The “biopic of a physicist” was made by one of the most recognizable filmmakers in Hollywood and was further propelled forward by a once in a generation hype campaign that will be impossible to repeat, although there’s no doubt in my mind that studios will try nonetheless.
