Did Square-Enix forget this disaster?

Considering Disney is also part of the project, I doubt it's going to be fucked with as much.

Regarding that movie, Hollywood decided to stick it's dick in it and remove all the stuff that made Final Fantasy, well... Final Fantasy.

 

[Marco Fucko]

If it isn't a nonsensical shitpost with decade long gaps between seasons then it's SHIT.

Nomura is a hack.
A HACK.

Nomura is a mad genius and you're all too stupid to see it.

 

[MasterDisaster]

The secret to a great Kingdom Hearts show is making the episodes out of order, change the cast midway through, reveal that the villain is actually the hero all along, constantly talk about hearts and darkness and have Goofy fuck Kiari in a fake rape scenario.

 

[FeverGlitch]

If they include bad storytelling, weird anime-esque dialogue pauses and robotic voice acting in the show, just as like the games (especially on KH3), then I'm set for the worst of God Nomura's autism. Shouldn't he work on Final Fantasy Versus 13 ...I mean, Kingdom Hearts 4 or making the FF 7 Remake Series worse by now, instead of making his OG KH universe even cringier than it is?

 

[Tor Lugosi]

I'd actually be interested in this if the scenes for each Disney world were animated like the movie it was based on but I doubt they'll put any near that amount of effort into the show.

 

[Shield Breaker]

Kindom Hearts is heavily concentrated cringe. When I tried to replay these games as an adult they physically hurt me. Hopefully they get better writers than those who wrote the games, or this will be the worst thing ever, what everyone pretends to be the best thing ever.

I think Terry Davis could have written a more comprehensible plot.

 

[Marissa Moira]

I can't wait until they add a black character and just make him Sora but not Sora but still is just as powerful as Sora except not but except when he is.

 

[Guts Gets Some]

I can think of so many games that I'd like to see adaptations for.... and they pick the most embarrassing game series of all time.

Figures.

Just think if they succeed in killing Kingdom hearts they're going to have fall back on the Mana series, Nier, and resurrect Xenogears.

I mean Trials of Mana is getting close to half a million units sold. Failure is indeed a most attractive option.

They can't kill it. It's way too over-hyped at this point. They would have to hire Kathleen Kennedy to stand any chance of murdering it. And even then, big if.

It won't die it will shatter into ten thousand fragments of autism each more beautiful than the last, and each fragment shall bear ten thousand child IPs, and from those child IPs multiple congruent series shall emerge.

 

[Agent Abe Caprine]

I hope Sora's fursona makes an appearance.

 

[PS1gamenwatch]

Here’s a scary thought, in the most unlikely event this is successful, would that give them the liquid encouragement to make a live action Dragonball movie?

....really?

You're gonna ask that after this abomination was released?

Consider the low as fuck bar the first one set anything could be seen as an improvement.

As awful as that movie was, it's still better than the Disney Star Wars movies or the entirety of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Honestly, I think the 2010's will be remembered as a pop culture dark age in hindsight, with the movies of that era in particular being looked down upon, barring a few obvious exceptions like Inception, Wolf of Wall Street, The Revenant, The Irishman, and probably Joker.

Just how far exactly do the '2010's' extend? There's a veritable fuckton of movies between 2010 and 2020 that will hold up exceptionally well and if you can only name three, one of which is the constantly over-hyped Joker, then I shall call you out on your subpar choices. A taste in films will always be subjective. It's like mixing Skittles, M&M's and Reese's Pieces all together in one bowl; you can just grab a handful and shove it in your mouth and bitch about how bad it tastes or take the time to pick through and find the ones you like.
Not every MCU movie is horrible. Not every Christopher Nolan film is a box office smash. Fucking Roger Corman has made 181 movies in his lifetime and is still trying to make more. A movie isn't defined by the money it makes or the message it tries to convey. A movie is defined by it's audience. I've watched hundreds of movies in my life and I wouldn't even pretend I've seen 5% of films in existence. I'll die knowing there are hundreds, if not thousands, of movies I'll never see. It just creates that much more appreciation for the ones I have seen; the good, the bad and the utterly shitty.

I'll give you Star Wars though. That's a shitty trilogy right there.

Eh, I only mentioned Joker as one of the highlights and even then I think it might not hold up as well in the long run as woke culture continues to fade. The fact it's based on a comic book will probably hurt its reputation in the long run.

Don't get me wrong, I'm well aware there are plenty of good movies that came out in the 2010's and a lot more than the ones I mentioned.

But I'm referring to the "common knowledge" perception of pop culture, which is usually the "Cliff Notes" version of what pop culture was actually like in the era.

It's like how a lot of people seem to only think of the big proto-blockbusters (Jaws, Star Wars, etc.) or the gritty "New Hollywood" movies when they talk about the movies of the 70's, when there was a wider trend of movies of all kinds, most notably the horror and exploitation genres, but also plenty of comedies and romances too.

Basically, the movies I mention are just a few high-profile examples of what would probably be seen as the "highlights" of "good 2010's cinema" by a lot of people looking back in retrospect or who weren't actually old enough to remember it.

Although I do think every MCU movie is bad with the possible exception of the first Iron Man, at least in my personal opinion. But I disliked the MCU before it got popular to hate on it.

Popular media is defined by it generation. It takes a true piece of art to survive the ever shifting pressure of easily swayed patrons to become something of a entertainment diamond; for example The original 1986 The Thing not only holds up by todays standards but you can bet it'll still be popular twenty years from now.

I don't have much faith in a Kingdom Hearts show. Video games that don't have a 'solid' foundation for a story are doomed to fail. The Witcher works because it's not based on a game but rather the books. KH is barely comprehensible and when the third one came out what everyone thought was finally something that was going to be an ending turned out to just be another open ending for more convoluted story; you need to finish one before you start another, Square/Enix.

You really can't blame places like Hulu or Netflix, hell, even Disney+. Thirty years ago television was utterly convinced that the internet was 'a fad' and 'nothing will ever replace prime time television'. Turns out people love being able to choose what they want to watch when they want to. So when you need to fill rosters you just throw shit at the wall and see what sticks.

Captain America is probably my all time favorite but goddammit you stay away from my adorable little Tom Holland I love him and he's best Spideyman and I will fuckin' stab you.

Well that wasn't as bad as it could of been, in all fairness and honesty.
