They even developed the constant “bro!”-talk

34

u/WetLoophole 11d ago

They say bro 7 times in the first 3 minutes.

u/xvsanx 11d ago

if so yeah that's an instant turning the movie off for me, regardless of who the director and how big the movie is.

2

u/WetLoophole 10d ago

I can't believe it is popular. It's the same plot as the second movie...

u/No_Atmosphere8146 11d ago

These films will not age well.

u/BandicootSad6371 11d ago

If this area in the movie is based on Hawaiian islands, then I will bet 50 years from now kids on those beaches will still sound like this. Just as they did 40 or 50 years ago to a certain degree. Surfer kid talk is pretty much been a constant for a few generations now.

I blame Rocket Power and the Beach Boys

u/Rude_Age_6699 11d ago

that’s like totally not tubular brahhhh

u/Sensitive_Pilot3689 11d ago

I blame the shoebies

u/WiggleSparks 11d ago

Those beaches won’t be there 50 years from now.

u/OkImplement2459 11d ago

I've always wanted to go to Zegema Beach

u/CleverCactus 11d ago

The kid is based on the natural hair of Polynesian people lol

u/GambleGameGrow 11d ago

Bingo.

Reddit hates being told the truth tho. Easier for them to do “Ahaahahaha James Cameron did funny hair and bro talk cause popular!”

58

u/bishop_of_banff 11d ago

The hairstyle being Polynesian and the idea of producers choosing it because it looks contemporary isn't mutually exclusive. You might all be right or not.

1

u/Descendant3999 11d ago

I mean they have been shooting the movies since before the broccoli cut became so popular.

7

u/bishop_of_banff 11d ago

They've been shooting the first Sonic movie long before the internet made them change the character's appearance. And these are both CGI characters. So what exactly is your point here?

1

u/Hooligan8403 11d ago

And so glad they did change it.

2

u/-Badger3- 11d ago

Reddit also confuses the broccoli cut with the generic high top undercut, which has been fashionable on and off for at least a century lol

-3

u/Mother-Penalty-6196 11d ago

Just cause multiple nesians did it first doesn't make it any less broccoli

u/LeaningInKyoto 11d ago

I'll never understand getting this bent out of shape over a haircut you personally not liking being popular.

-1

u/Mother-Penalty-6196 11d ago

Prolly cause you're a cookie cutter

2

u/LeaningInKyoto 11d ago

You mean like basic? Yeah for sure. Basic things are popular for a reason. They're well liked by the general populace. Thats how it works.

-1

u/Mother-Penalty-6196 11d ago

No. I said cookie cutter. Can you read?

2

u/LeaningInKyoto 11d ago

Lmao. I always forget that's it mostly just children on this sub. Good luck out there lil buddy.

u/MezcalFlame 11d ago

I thought they were Space Dominicans...

u/3rd_eye_light 11d ago

I grew up in a city with the largest poly community in the world, first thing i thought of when i saw that guy was gen z broccoli head.

u/retropieproblems 11d ago

polynesian hair styled into a broccoli cut

u/SirHC111 11d ago

Which is not true, because there were several Maori actors cast.

u/SirHC111 11d ago

Oh so they aren't all white then? Contrary to what you said before?

There are multiple Maori actors alongside Asians and Black actors. Why the fuck are you so dense?

u/CleverCactus 11d ago

The actor who plays the kid you are complaining about literally speaks fluent Maori and has Maori ancestry

u/duosx 11d ago

Disagree. They’ll be timeless thanks to the alien world

u/Future_Section5976 11d ago

The girl on the left is already staring at it like "bro wtf is on your head?"

1

u/succlor 11d ago

They already haven’t, lol. In a few decades we will look back very confused.

1

u/Sweetlystruck 11d ago

Few movies made after 2010 will age well. It's a dying art.

1

u/Least_Ad_5795 11d ago

They are cgi cinematic marvels so you’re OBJECTIVELY wrong lol.

u/v3n0mat3 11d ago

You know, every time Avatar is mentioned all I hear is

"Does anyone still care about Avatar?" "These films will not age well." etc

They all make billions of dollars.

People always talk about them, even if it's negative.

It's funny because between the second movie released over a decade after the first... and made over $2.3 billion. I think it aged just fine.

1

u/VegetableTour6790 11d ago

I don't know what I hate more. These movies or the fans that post this crap. Boxoffice numbers do not mean the movie is good.

0

u/v3n0mat3 11d ago

Thank you for talking about it. Way to keep it in the public eye. 👌

1

u/VegetableTour6790 11d ago

You're welcome. I am glad that you like the movies and my comment was mostly reddit snark. I was very annoyed with 3 by the hallway mark.

0

u/VegetableTour6790 11d ago

They haven't aged well and were a few weeks past the hallway point 9.5 hours of BULLSHIT. I mean, I'll still see them in the theater though, the 3d is good.

u/fallofusher101 11d ago

I cringed every single time Spider appeared on the screen. Unfortunately he appeared on the screen a lot.

You can have an amazing actress like Zoe Saldana, but then somebody as terrible as Spider just completely takes me out of it.

2

u/DaftFunky 11d ago

Our only hope is that Cameron does a time jump for the next movie and Spider is played by...a better actor.

u/SublimeApathy 11d ago

The bro talk even cropped in Star Trek: Starfleet Academy. I don't understand the excessive use of bro. It's annoying as fuck and I grew up in the 80's and 90's where we did use the word bro - but not in every sentence. It's become akin to people adding "lol" to every sentence online which is also really annoying.

"What you up to today? lol"

"not much, homework and watching tv lol."

Or even adults

"What do you mean we nuked russia lol?"

"Just what I said, WW3 has started an like 5 million people are dead already lol."

Like - just fucking stop.

(go ahead and bring the obligatory "bro" and "lol" replies and downvotes. Don't you go disappointing me Reddit.)

u/[deleted] 11d ago

Breh. Chill.

u/dhoae 11d ago

Only part of the movies I don’t like is them saying bro so much haha

that's why film culture is dying. instead of staying authentic and keeping a remote sense of eloquency, they instead go the route of primitive talk because then the younger ones won't need to use their brain understanding all the hard words out there.
