      No, not harshly enough. They can’t keep getting away with it. Morons need to stop watching obvious garbage out of mindless curiosity.

          Anything but obvious cash grabs and uninspired spinoffs like the emoji movie.

          Even stuff like The Room are WAY better even from a creative process standpoint. That thing is an adventure. The emoji movie is just a soulless product.

              As someone who did watch the Meg because someone else wanted to watch it, I’d say please don’t. You lose a lot more by going to watch it than you do by not watching it.

              Were they cash grabs or safe bets? There is definitely a gray zone for “safe bets” where the creatives actually do a decent job. Lazy trash from execs, but if the creatives manage to deliver it can still achieve “not a waste of time”.

      This film won’t happen. Skibidi toilet had 15 mins of fame for generation alpha and only had legs from older generations not understanding it because it’s toilet humour and absurd.

      The kids already don’t care about it. If the Minecraft movie went through development hell for 10 years, this movie is not getting made when they realise the kids already don’t give a shit.

      I’m in my 20s and this makes me cringe.

      On one hand I’m happy for the creator getting rich, but the whole appeal of the shorts was that they’re high quality shitposts…

      Skibidi gradually evolved into more than 70 1-to-5-minute mini-epics depicting the infinitely escalating war between the Toilets and the Cyborgs. Each video is explosive, violent and free of any discernible dialogue.

      Should be right up his alley

        Yeah, except he’ll have to figure out a way to make the movie mostly about a forced love story between two characters completely unrelated to the original series, and only show anything Skibidi-related for like <1/2 the movie.

        All it requires is that the film ends with “What I’ve done” by Linking Park but this time it’s [s l o w e d + r e v e r b e d] [c h i l l m i x]

          Everyday we set one step farther away from the light of God and towards 2 hour long Idiocracy ass movies.

          I can’t wait until m night shyamalan puts out an ass movie with a twist.

    I think the hate it gets is undeserved, Skibidi Toilet is objectively an impressive achievement of 3d animation and minimal surrealist storytelling, it’s obvious that the person who made it has been doing this for a long time and is very skilled. People are just dismissive because the main target audience is children and not them.

          I’ve only caught a little bit of it here and there… So take what I say with a grain of salt.

          But I’d say probably no. For no other reason than I don’t remember any quotable lines. If anything I’d say maybe more along the lines of like happy tree friends?

      Watching from the first episode is like watching someone get in their 10,000 hours. Visuals and story telling skills getting just a little bit better every single episode.

    I’m imagining conversations with the costume department.

    • So half of the actors will be wearing a full toilet costume
    • A what?!
    • Yes, only their head should stick out, but make it completely mobile. And also appropriate for stunts

    I’m not gonna be “that guy”, but I remember watching dafuq’s animations years before skibidi toilet was a thing.

    Thank you for clarifying this is, in fact not an Onion article. I saw this earlier and assumed it was a joke.

    It’s still a joke, but it’s also real. Fuck.
