Historically inaccurate. In Rust you wake up naked on the beach. A bad adaptation already. I wonder if they'll go through Radtown.
Yeah, and I see no mention of type-safety and concurrency.
This movie needs no marketing. Everybody knows about it.
First I'm hearing of it.
Edit: oh, it's that one.
They did a bang up job on publicity already.
They finished the shooting a while back.
This movie kills
It's a blast
Primed to make a killing
Alec's acting really firing on all cylinders
Can’t believe they are following through with releasing this. They will cancel complete looney tune movies but not one as problematic at this? I figured this project was done before post even started
The Looney Toons (Tunes? I’m too lazy to look it up) movie cancellation was by WB/Discovery - who have developed a bit of a habit doing that, but it’s not common in the wider industry.
At this point, the movie is so infamous that they may as well try to cash in and cover some of those lawyer fees!
Tunes indeed and a very common mistake to make. I thought for years it was toons for sure, but it's tunes for the music, not toons for cartoons. The sister show was merry melodies, kinda helps remember.
It had never occurred to me that the two were related. Duh!
Wikipedia describes Merry Melodies as a spin-off from Looney Tunes!
The title of Looney Tunes was inspired by Walt Disney’s Silly Symphonies.
Otherwise someone died for nothing, and, more importantly, rich people would lose money.
Redemption isn't given, it's refactored
Is this based on the video game or the programming language? 🤔
Crossing my fingers it's based on the iron oxide 🤞
I have mixed feelings about this. On one hand filmmakers love making movies and want their work to be released so I feel Halyna would want it released. On the other hand I feel like the producers only care about recouping their losses and won't properly compensate her family.
Agreed. Maybe her family would also like it released, so that her work on it wouldn’t go to waste? I hope either they’re properly recompensated, or they sue everyone’s asses.
This movie is very memory safe
that's a programming language, right?
Can't wait to see if this movie pops off (again)
I guess the idea of releasing one with Alec was shot down.
Come on, what will be next ? A country named Rust ?
