Mabuhay at maligayang pag-alis sa Lemmy! ✈️


An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! πŸ‡΅πŸ‡­


Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

Today’s Ask PHlemmy: Which "famous" movie franchise is pretty much dead?

[–] decadentrebel 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Fast & Furious? I stopped watching just about the time Jason Statham showed up.

What's unique with Fast & Furious franchise is that they combine practical effects and extensive CGi at the same time, and it's glorious when you watch them in theaters. lol

Toys Story. Not because flopped na. Pero toys are becoming irrelevant

[–] decadentrebel 2 points 1 year ago

Not to mention that they lied to us by saying Toy Story 3 is the end (and it concluded well). Then they did a fourth one tapos may Lightyear pa.

Literally the DC Extended Universe: with its final 2 movies The Flash and Aquaman 2 releasing this year, and yesterday’s announcement of the new Superman (David Corenswet) and Lois Lane (Rachel Brosnahan) for a reboot

X-Men? the latest i watched is dark phoenix and according to wikipedia there was a movie released in 2020 that flopped

[–] decadentrebel 6 points 1 year ago

Tbf, New Mutants was watchable... mostly because of Anya Taylor-Joy's performance there as Magik. Other than that, meh. Buti na lang nakuha na ng MCU rights ulit sa X-Men.

Terminator is dead since terminator 3

  • Jurassic Park (or World). Man, Dominion was a turd. The opening scene was a cringe and the whole felt like I was watching four movies in one.
  • Terminator. It's pretty much dead after Salvation. T3 was fine, ironically this was my first Terminator film I watched.
  • MCU
  • Star Wars

In Hollywood? Everything and anything will be remade and continued. Even a flop will eventually return. I don't doubt the dark universe (with Tom cruise and Russell Crowe) will be revisited after a few years.
