"Please buy Your Name on Blu-ray so we can make GB2016-2!"

No thanks, I'll just import the Japanese release.

The movie obviously didn't make money because most of the population hates women. If Sony keeps virtue signaling by making more, people will eventually come around and admit that GB2016 and the inevitable sequels are Oscar-deserving, pure Kino films of the highest caliber in its genre.

Why would they even consider making GB2016-2?

I mean, we might get better theatrical releases. FUNi is fucking awful with theatrical screenings. I think Your Name was the first movie they released in the Orlando area. I couldn't go to any of the Eva screenings because the nearest one was two hours away in Ft. Fucking Luaderdale.

Season 5 was shit
Why do you think so?
They took a show that was originally meant for kids and made it WAY too adult, exactly as I feared they would.

I wouldn't have had an issue if they had done it smoothly and tastefully, but they didn't.

that's your core issue, you think SJ was ever a kids show

Samurai Jack was always more mature with deeper messages than most kids shows. I wouldn't say it was solely intended for kids. I think making it even more mature was cool because we grew up with the show watching it as kids, and now we're watching it as adults.
that's what i love about shit like harry potter

the difference is, the maturation in HP is gradual

in SJ, it's very blunt and sudden, and as a result, off-putting

The story also takes a massive nose dive half way through book four and never recovers in the books after.

Glad I'm not the only one who noticed.

Book 5 was dreadfully boring.

disagree for the most part, but at least the movies were pretty consistent in terms of quality

i am not ok with this

but on the other hand the prices for home releases will likely be jacked up, the partnership funi has with CR will probably be ended, and shit on services that sony doesn't own will likely be pulled
