Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, ableist, or advocating violence will be removed.
Be civil: disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally insult others.
Spam, self promotion, trolling, and bots are not allowed
Shitposts and memes are allowed until they prove to be a problem.
Regarding spoilers; Please put "(Spoilers)" in the title of your post if you anticipate spoilers, as we do not currently have a spoiler tag available. If your post contains an image that could be considered a spoiler, please mark the thread as NSFW so the image gets blurred. As far as how long to wait until the post is no longer a spoiler, please just use your best judgement. Everyone has a different idea on this, so we don't want to make any hard limits.
Please use spoiler tags whenever commenting a spoiler in a non-spoiler thread. Most of the Lemmy clients don't support this but we want to get into the habit as clients will be supporting in the future.
Failure to follow these guidelines will result in your post/comment being removed and/or more severe actions. All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.

Budget: $120 million [source]
Opening weekend gross: $4 million
Factoring in marketing costs and the theaters taking their cut of the profits, Megalopolis would need to make at least $300 million to break even. I think it's safe to say that's not happening.
It would have been THE worst opening for a $100 million movie ever, had it not been for Pluto Nash's horriffic opening 22 years ago.
Even The New York Times is reporting near-empty screenings of Megalopolis!
Every second or third post on Lemmy is about privacy or ad-blocking or piracy or pi-holes or bitching about ad injection.
Not that any of that is a bad thing. (The bitching isn't bad, the things are.)
But you can't be surprised when you don't hear about shit. When you reclaim your eye-holes from Madison avenue you need to seek things out.
I'm not sure where on Earth you got the impression that I only consume media through Lemmy.
I'm not sure where on earth you got the impression that I thought that.
On Lemmy.
Where on lemmy did I suggest that?
I don't know, lemmy is where he got that impression. It may or may not be an accurate one.
