Another horrible Disney poster. It should just say "Back for Seconds" or "Coming Back for Seconds." The whole point of an iconic franchise is that you don't have to say that it's Homer! And the sprinkles all being the #2? Are you kidding? Completely dreadful.
Teaser poster for another Simpsons movie. "Homer's Coming Back for Seconds" with his hand taking a donut. The sprinkles on the donut are all the number 2.

Errrm are we really meant to believe the Ice Age films will be accessible—let alone enjoyed by children—an entire century from now?

Will anybody else join me on team "Pro-Longlegs, Anti-Weapons?"
Longlegs: Makes no literal sense, doesn't really try to explain what's happening, everything is "of a piece" i.e. it's all about the main character and everything we see with them is what the movie is interested in doing, has "dark fairytale" vibes but you kind of have to pick up on that interpretation for yourself, uses "familiar" tropes to lull the viewer into its wavelength while deeper things are going on, the violence is upsetting, the resolution is open-ended, leaves the viewer uncomfortable. Weapons: Makes literal sense even if it requires everyone to act very stupid, goes to painstaking lengths to explain what's happening, everything is disconnected i.e. the personal struggles of Julia Garner, Josh Brolin, Alden Ehrenreich and the rest don't really have anything to do with anything else, tells you explicitly it's a "dark fairytale" but doesn't feel that way at all outside of the narration, uses novelty and surprise to excite the viewer and obscure the fact that nothing deeper is going on, the violence is funny, the resolution is abrupt but definitive, leaves the viewer unchallenged.
