garfield is a queer icon and im tired of pretending he's not, he's for the queers who are just a little bit eepy, for the queers who just want to eat and laze about, he's also canonically an enby who goes by he/him pronouns

idk i just decided to make this space for anyone who wants to post garfield memes and general garfield related stuff because there's like only one other garfield comm on lemmy that i could find and its just one guy posting the garfield comic that was released today 45 years ago (unironically pretty cool though ngl)

Rules: all the normal stuff no bigotry, no doxxing, etcetera. I reserve the right to moderate as i see fit but i dont think i'll be too overbearing with it (any bigotry will be pretty harshly modded though)

I liked it, but it also fits in with the other odd entries in the series. It was very much a side story to Fury Road, a movie with more inherent drive and direction. It reminded me of Dune Part 1; more of an appetizer than a main course. It was a good appetizer, but it wasn't an exercise in nonstop motion like Road Warrior or Fury Road.

Chris Hemsworth was fantastic, honestly my favorite role from him yet. The Old Man and other new side characters also shared the signature weirdness I love in these movies. Anya Taylor-Joy might not be mommy in the same way as Charlize Theron, but she can also top me anytime she wants ❤

But victory is a long way off for the $168 million production starring Anya Taylor-Joy and Chris Hemsworth. George Miller’s prequel stormed theaters riding on great reviews and was expected to have at least a slightly stronger debut.

For Sony, the launch of the more modestly budgeted “The Garfield Movie” is a win even without the bragging rights of being in first place. The animated film featuring the voice of Chris Pratt is likely to have a long life at the box office the summer holiday beginning for school age children. With its early international release, “The Garfield Movie” has already earned over $91.1 million against its $60 million production budget.

In other words, currently Furiosa is edging Garfield, but Garfield will ultimately dominate Furiosa.

I dunno, Furiosa might have a second coming.
