That script is most likely revised since the hack.

[up][up] ´revised´ is really stretching it.

How do you know? Again, the film isn't out. We can't make absolute statements about how the script translates into film or how much it's been changed since the leak.

The film has gotten decent reception from people who have actually watched it. While I don't believe that Reviews Are the Gospel, I feel like that should have some counterweigh against a script that was leaked two years ago.

[up]It is possible that they were more forgiving given the state of the film when it was shown to them.

Or they could just have shit taste.

I misread this as "the script was revised by a hack", and I laughed.

Revised or no, I still don't have high hopes for this film.

Same here. I am cautiously pessimistic about this film. And as much as a good excuse 'the script is revised' is, keep in mind this: the Deadpool script was also revised. The original script was received positively from fans of the character. The revised script to said movie ended up creating a good film that didn't disappoint as it pretty much just like the original script. If Deadpool had a great script and revised to make a great movie, chances are Sausage Party is going to end up 5 hours after the big breakfast I ate.

Either way, I'd think when they revise a script that doesn't mean they completely rewrite it. It'd still probably be a really similar script, just with some edits. So a revision doesn't mean it'd necessarily be a better script.

You know, I can honestly see an effort put into this movie. Clearly, this is trying to be the Deadpool of animated features: a movie that is so completely unlike the safe and neutral movies of its kind that it changes the entire face of the industry. There's a lot of potential in the fact that it shatters the "anthropomorphic inanimate object" thing movies like Wreck-It Ralph did.

The problem is that it also relies on a tired, old joke that so-called "adult" animation uses: the sole joke behind this movie is "Cartoons are for kids! So here's a kid's movie with gore, sex and swearing! Isn't that completely unexpected?" Either the developers behind the movie didn't know how numerous this joke has been played, or they do know and don't care that it is.

I am not going to see this movie, and you shouldn't either. I'd take a thousand Assembly Line kids movies any day than an influx of things that perpetuates the stereotype that "People who watch cartoons are man-children!" and, like countless others before it, is filled with stock jokes that just play to that backhanded, one-panel joke.

Fuck this movie, don't reward idiocy.

Beware of occasional bad attitude. I do Fanfics on deviantART. Witness me make a mockery out of myself there, too.

[up] I honestly am kind of amused by that concept, if only for how outrageously ridiculous it sounds. And because it plays into the Fridge Logic inherent in all romances between Animate Inanimate Object characters in kids' films, i.e. Woody and Bo Beep or Lightning and Sally.

I'm not gonna lie. Seeing Seth Rogan spoof those 1950's and 1960's specials on ABC cracked me the hell up.

The food orgy sounds like they're aiming for something like the puppet sex scene in Team America. I haven't seen the latter film, but for some reason, the latter sounds like it'd work a whole lot better then the former.

Eh, the sex scene in Avenue Q is way better done than the one in Team America. The latter just felt like such a scene in a puppet show itself was a joke, while the former actually advanced the plot (and also was just more competently done, at least with the cast that I saw perform it).

Oh, is that what "1950's and 1960's specials on ABC" referred to? The video wasn't on Youtube until May 23rd, it says.

A California theater showed the trailer before Finding Dory. [tdown]

Which theater? I went to a AMC one at California for Finding Dory and the trailer I saw with the highest content rating was Ghostbusters.

Looks like they censored the trailer somewhat.

"THEY'RE JUST CHILDREN" just doesn't have the same hilarious ring to it.

But man, they dun goofed with that mess in the theater.
