Its my hope in 5 to 10 years this will be enough of a prompt for ai to make you a movie.

It will be good for about 3 to 5 years, then all the streaming services left will bring out an AI tier subscription and Aiflix will lose prominence as functionality is the new copyright not content

Drunk history vibes. I can dig it. πŸ‘

If you like the "cutting back and forth between table and in-game" part, the Gamers series by Zombie Orpheus Entertainment would be right up your alley. Particularly "Dorkness Rising," easily the most quotable film in the set.

"sigh My, what fine yet rustic architecture. I will examine it more closely."

This is the second time in the last week I've been told I should watch this series.

I think it's a sign

I envision this as something Community would have pulled off if the rights were in place. I miss that show...

[–] Uglyhead@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

I miss the banned episode

Chang is the asshole of all assholes on that series and shows up in Dark Elf makeup… https://youtu.be/dk4eT5huZxc?si=hjxQTnxlhyVt75_L Because of course he did.

Excuse me, but you can't be voiced by a muppet.

[–] sirblastalot@ttrpg.network 0 points 1 year ago

Not with that attitude

My favorite is when you have a great serious performance with Muppets as the costars like Michael Cain in the Muppets Christmas Carol

[–] Vagabondshad@ttrpg.network 0 points 1 year ago

As I've seen before, there's only 2 best ways to act alongside Muppets:

  1. Michael Cain method- they are the same as human costars and I will play this as seriously as a car wreck

Or

  1. Tim Curry method- this is a muppet film and I will act like I myself am a muppet, no silliness is too silly

I watched that on Christmas solely for how straight Michael Caine plays it in a fuckin Muppet movie ❀️

Basically kinda like Drunk History.

How high was the person who thought of this

[–] BrazenSigilos@ttrpg.network 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Miss Piggy would definitely call it a Boarbarian, however.

I do hope she makes a CR ref with "I... would like... to... rrrRRA-A-AGE!!"

β€œKermit the Bard here…”

I heard that. πŸ₯°

I now really want to see a version of Rainbow Connection but with more YABOGABI

Sounds like Drunk Muppet History to me. Why not?

This is the most judgey comma I've seen in a while. Very well done

  1. It's not the whole franchise, so that's not entirely accurate, and 2. the movie they're referencing was the weakest of all the Jumanji cash-grabs (funded in no small part by Hart & Johnson), so there's little likelihood that anyone would complain β€” Besides, it's the fuckin' Muppets! Let's go-o-o-o!
[–] drphungky@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

Whoa whoa whoa - the Jumanji reboot was excellent. It's still a kids movie, but Jack Black was amazing, and even Kevin "Homophobe" Hart showed some chops. And the Rock and Karen Gilliam are both good as always.

Yes, it's a derivative recycle of existing IP capitalizing on nostalgia, but everything now is a derivative recycle of existing IP capitalizing on nostalgia. At least they updated the board game idea to have fun 80s video game call backs and tried their best for a good script and good acting. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

[–] OneOrTheOtherDontAskMe@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Wait, but the new jumanji beats Zathura by a long shot, both pale to original jumanji.

Every bullshit attempt after the Robin Williams classic isn't worth being referred to as a Jumanji movie. Case closed.

[–] escew@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

In one of the newer jumanji movies the kids that get trapped in the game are played by jack black/dwayne Johnson/kevin hart.

Yes, thanks. For some reason I can't edit that right now.

[–] darthelmet@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I can't tell you how many times I think of an amusing idea only to remember that it already exists.
