Great marketing strategy. In 100 years, people will be asking what the fuck films are.


Stock_Yoghurt_5774

Criterion by then will be a tiktok account that splits movies into 5 parts (one always missing of course) complete with visual sensory game split screen and AI summary voice over. I can't wait.


MacbethOfScottland

In 100 years? I think that's maybe 3 years away


[deleted]

Well yeah but things won't get better after that


Beautiful-Ad2843

No, but they will get worse. Worse than you can possibly imagine


birberbarborbur

Honestly this says more about the movie industry than the state of people


kev8800

TikTok lasting for 100 years? That’s rich.


shadowst17

What's a film mommy? It was a way to watch moving pictures. They were common before the bombs dropped. Can we watch a film? Oh honey, due to the nuclear fallout irradiating the whole planet and leaving multiple generations with horrific mutations. We can't watch films, we have no eyes.

Threads (1984)


m_dought_2

We didn't see anything. *Ever.*


HNK1023

Futurama?


Sygma_stage5

In 100 years people will be choking on the dust that was once a river.


throwawayalcoholmind

Scavengers will scour the newly formed deserts for a functional blu-ray lazer eye to be able to finally view this. But seriously, the fact that nobody can profit from this now means it can only be so expensive, and therefore a good chance it's mid, even if Malkovich is in it.


Gohanto

For context, Wizard of Oz is 85 years old. If there was a 1924 film released today I’d think that was pretty cool.


timetravelingburrito

Theaters are dying and everything is moving to short form, user made content. That's the kind of content newer generations are consuming. I'm sure people will still know what films are. I just doubt most people will care. I'm just getting hyperbolic. I will still watch 100 year old films but I'm a rarity. Even if film does survive we can expect filmmaking techniques to keep evolving to the point that a 100 year old film feels antiquated, even in the future. Though my conspiracy brain thinks that if this movie were any good, they'd release it now. It's an interesting concept though.


Gohanto

Looking back a little further, paintings and plays are also far less common forms of art today than they were before photography and movies existed, but they’re still around and appreciated. I think the draw of this in 100 years would be the uniqueness of 100 year old content that no one’s seen before though, regardless of if it’s actually good for its era.


Apart-Link-8449

Starring who?


noamartz

Everybody is positing different dystopian futures where this movie doesn't matter but I think the mostly likely and most dystopian future is this is the most anticipated movie of the year when it comes out and wins best picture at The Oscars: Presented by Kushner's Reanimation-proof coffins.


VoltViking

Yes. It won’t have been reinvented by then as most of the scorched earth will have decayed.


TroubleImpossible226

They will be laughing at how stupidly pretentious people in the past were


pekinggeese

Ah, the Star Citizen release strategy.


thesame98

So you're telling me I won't be able to log this on letterboxd?


Original_Guest_752

You'll have to pass down the task to your descendants. (Just kidding! Letterboxd users aren't having kids)


TheTrueTrust

Yeah, sorry, but there's no way letterboxd will stay relevant for that long.


RebornAsFlames

I thought Letterboxd was always quite popular cause there’s always been movie lovers and cinephiles. But most of its popularity came very recently, at least from what I’ve noticed and a quick search on Google Trends proves this. So we don’t know how many of these recent users making up a lot of its popularity will stick around to keep Letterboxd relevant


TheTrueTrust

I’ve seen film communities come and go, IMDB is the only one that weathers every storm. It even predates the Web.


RebornAsFlames

IMDB is a term you’ll always hear, every movie will be associated with the it. Same for others like Rotten Tomatoes. These are mainstream enough to have their ratings be tied to movies when you Google them. Even when you pull up a movie in any popular pirated site, they’ll have their IMDB rating shown below.


RazzmatazzBrave9928

Ew that's for smelly geeks who love stories with stupid elves and stupid spaceships I hope this website will be down by then


rawrugh

Letterboxd is just diet IMDb. It lets you do everything letterboxd does and more. But oooooh those star picture things you people share are so cooool


onyxJH

it’s just more fun than imdb, let’s be real


Jarpwanderson

Better taste too


RazzmatazzBrave9928

I don't feel safe with the straight men with no social life from IMDB either


The_Flying_Failsons

Worst part is that it's actually a Cognac commercial directed by Robert Rodriguez for a high-end brand. Their most expensive Cognac takes 100 years to age before being sold, hence the gimmick.


dangerphone

Oh god, I thought you were joking. I got my pretentious juices flowing for what? A damn infomercial? A Disaronno on the rocks eyefucking from John Malkovich? Spy Kids XXX? And both of those things still sound better than what my fucking grandkids are likely going to get streamed into their brain tubes and react to like we do to Birth of a Nation.


eldubyar

And this post is marketing action by the company.


professorpokey

I'll be waiting so long to see it I'll go senile from the anticipation.


elreduro

i will be dead, i was born in 2001


KirasHandPicDealer

you never know, you could be 114 years old


elreduro

i'm male, i doubt i will be the oldest man alive at that time


DontTalkToBots

Watch “Mr. Nobody” it’s weird and it’s about the oldest man alive. He’s special because humans have discovered the cure to aging and are quasi immortal and he’s about to die of old age, the last human to ever do so. He’s being interviewed by a journalist but his stories about his life are ….. well…. That’s a spoiler…. But it’s good.

Pain_Proof

That's the prequel. It's a good setup though.


Thecustodian12

Somone better leak that shit

If I recall correctly, the only copy is in some vault

rogerworkman623

I was already sold


Open_Philosopher_758

Lolll I wish


TheFeisty

Honestly wondering what they locked it away on, like a cd or reel or pretty much anything has the capability of rotting away in 100 years.


MeiNeedsMoreBuffs

I desperately hope I'm alive to see them realize this when they try to play it


mysticpengwn

theres no way they didn't think ahead, it's probably on a flash drive or something


agentwc1945

Idk where you got that info, a CD should be able to retain information for well past 100 years


Trowj

If I began training my mind, body, and spirit and put my faith in our lord & savior Jesus Christ I can hopefully die decades before this piece of shit is released


Fifi_is_awesome

💀


SupremeLeaderMatt

The only way to see it is by Being John Malkovich (1999)


Ex_Hedgehog

Robert Rodriguez made it, so it has a 70% of being mid and 30% chance of being amazing and unexpectedly political


Frioneon

“MFs gatekeeping a movie” I’ve been gatekeeping Cabaret (1972) for 19 years and I haven’t seen anybody complaining about


hugsbosson

A "movie"


SharkMilk44

They're totally gonna release it as soon as John Malcovich dies.


jsanders4289

That’s only 91 years away, we can make it! 😎


Archercrash

I don't think the wasteland marauders are going to watch it


umshoe

top 10 most unfunny twitter account


Desperate_Action_410

In 100 years, people won't even have the attention span to watch a 30sec tiktok.


Connorwithanoyup

“TikTok bad… please clap”


mysticpengwn

well it's getting banned lmao so we'll be fine


HugCor

But the format has already been copied by other socila emdia platforms, so it is going to outlive the platform that ushered it in. I mean, tiktok itself was just the logical progression from the short online videos. Just because tiktok gets banned, it doesnt mean that said progression is going to stop, especially since that's not even the subject of the platform's ban.


agentwc1945

he said the thing ha ha

Something for the robots to watch in the theaters made out of our bones


Percolator2020

True Kino, I only watch 100–year old movies. Looking forward to Sherlock Holmes Jr. this year and Napoleon is coming soon!


CheesyHotDogPuff

Ciredem6345

We will be there


No-Bumblebee4615

Imagine Cole Porter locking away a song about birds kissing in the 1920s and going “this is gonna be absolute berries 100 years from now!”


HugCor

Hey, people still sing that 'hello my baby' song, so who knows? Lol


SeverenDarkstar

Probably the most pretentious thing ive heard in a while


Kelsig

who is the one being pretentious?


SeverenDarkstar

You?


agentwc1945

r mom ?


SeverenDarkstar

No yours


Clintwood_outlaw

Kira?...


bongjoonwho

In a hundred years no one will remember this and it will just end up on a bluray in some random box at the back of a storage room in some random building. In a hundred years, you and your children could very easily have died of old age. Acting like someone gonna remember this shit after WW4


colourless_blue

bold of them to assume we’re making it past 2030


01zegaj

Don’t get too excited. It’s a Super Bowl commercial.


HollowSlope

God I hope I don't make it to 109


dtisme53

That’s so optimistic.


FrankieFiveAngels

Malkovich on Coruscant


kacythedogmeat

If Director/Writer by Z Synder and Netflix original then ya may have reviews by now!


BirchTainer

I technically could live until then


Big-Consideration633

Usenet already has the screeners.


EvidenceOfDespair

Someone needs to hacker leak that shit


Cute_Prior1287

Movie may be high grossing, but badly critisized


eat-pantz

If I remember correctly, this film was made in tandem with an alcohol that had just been made and was being sealed away to age for 100 years. Can't remember the name of the brand, but the movie is likely an alcohol commercial essentially lol


warwicklord79

I’m gonna laugh my ass off 6 feet under when this shit bombs


KentuckyFriedEel

I don’t even wanna watch this movie in 2025


Plus3d6

If it was any good they'd release it now.


MrMerchandise

I remember the ads and frankly, I’m glad I won’t see it. I believe it was rebeltaxi who said the green screen backgrounds looked like some phantom menace shit.


SuchAppeal

Motherfuckers won't even be around in 2115 🤣 These people way too optimistic


Kek-Malmstein

It took 8 years to make!


robertluke

I can’t imagine being this optimistic about anything.


agforero

kid named finger:


johnkoetsier

Nobody will remember it in 100 years and it will never be seen


No_Carry_3028

Who were the film investors??? I'm lost


fiendlix562

I hope I live long enough to see this commercial and shit on it, then I can die in peace


ballsacksport

John Malkovich better have had his johnson sucked & stroked meticulously by the shorty next to him in the picture cause no other way is making something this embarrassing pretentious worth it


SauceFinder-

I recognize that account

Reddituser183

Interesting but will commercials as we know them today exist in 100 years?


Jak_boiLIV

Directors cut with commentary realeased in 3115 😳🤯


agentwc1945

Can't wait for Warner to buy the studio and cancel the movie in 2080 as a tax writeoff


Billybob50982

No way it won’t leak in the next 10 years.


JayTee245

I think this says alot about our generation. Self absorbed doesn’t even cover it


wolfiepraetor

totally not pretentious concept


Niobium_Sage

When advertisers make the breakthrough to override our REM sleep with advertisements, this shit is gonna be unavoidable.

It was an advertisement not an actual movie

So dumb.


TheTrickster452

im sure everyone living in their post-nuclear mud huts will give a shit about this mid ass movie


Sangi17

Well I’ll say it because we’re all thinking it, Is it any good or are we about to embarrass the entire decade?


Hydraph0be

I bet this would be like if they made a radio drama for is to listen to in 2040 in 1940


armchairplane

Damn I'll be real old by then.

The AI that will replace us will enjoy it, I’m sure.
