My teenage son told me he wouldn't watch it even if i put it on my jellyfin server. I told him i wouldn't waste my ratio on it so we were both on the same page at least.
He mentioned something about being tired of watching Jack Black in anything, but the movie was still terrible even if Steve was played by someone else.
The kids are gonna be just fine.
Here's to hoping gen alpha becomes the generation that rebels hard against slop.
To be fair we thought Zoomers would too but they just ended up moving to different forms of slop
Slop.....slop never changes.
Its interesting watching the first fully born-in-the-internet generations and the things they come uo with.
Every generation of youth rebels against their parents/grownups, norms, and the like. But i think this generation of kids, the alphas, is fully fucking different than any other generation of youthful rebellion. Alphas gonna get real weird with it and im fucking here for it.
On its face, its shit as simple as memes, but as complex as suddenly nearly every single human being alive on the planet earth at this very moment being able to converse with each other.
Human nature, or whatever, never planned on every single one of us being able to shitpost all at once.

Slop Rebels is a good band name.
Jack Black trying to be the video game guy is really annoying. Like sure he was fine as Bowser but in the tradition of capitalism milking everything to death we now have to put up with every video game movie featuring Jack Black or some other Gen X comedian (Not shitting on gen X or anything I'm just saying it's the milking of a trend to death that's the annoying part)
Jack Black, Timothy Chamelet, and Zendaya seem to be the actors that studios try to shove everywhere hoping that it gets people to see their shitty films.
Don't forget Chris Pratt
He's so cool
The worst part is I used to like Jack Black but the new Jack Black may as well have literally killed the old Jack Black when he betrayed Kyle and broke up Tenacious D
Saaaame and he was really good in Psychonauts 2
Jack black falls into the categories "terrible actor cause he only knows how to play one character, which is Jack Black"
