Happy 15th anniversary to Pirates of the Caribbean 4

The movie was released on May 20, 2011 and grossed $1.045 billion worldwide, which made it at the time the 6th highest-grossing movie in the world (behind Avatar 1, Titanic, The Lord of the Rings 3, Toy Story 3 and Pirates of the Caribbean 2). It's now the 50th highest-grossing movie in the world and the 49th without re-releases. It's also the 3rd highest-grossing movie of 2011 (behind Harry Potter 8 and Transformers 3). It was also the 8th movie in history to gross $1 billion (after Titanic, The Lord of the Rings 3, Pirates of the Caribbean 2, The Dark Knight, Avatar 1, Alice in Wonderland and Toy Story 3), the 4th Disney movie to do so (after Pirates of the Caribbean 2, Alice in Wonderland and Toy Story 3), the 2nd Pirates of the Caribbean movie to do so (after Pirates of the Caribbean 2), which made Pirates of the Caribbean the 1st franchise in history to have 2 movies gross $1 billion and the 1st of 3 movies of 2011 to gross $1 billion (followed by Harry Potter 8 and Transformers 3), which made 2011 the 1st year in history to have 3 movies gross $1 billion. This is the most nostalgic Pirates of the Caribbean movie to me. This is probably the one that made me a fan of the franchise

A parody of the courtroom scene from The Incredibles 1 when Thor was banished from Asgard in Thor 1

News reporter: in a stunning turn of events the monarch of a kingdom is being sued for banishing someone who apparently didn't deserve to be banished. The plaintiff, Prince Thor of Asgard, who was banished from Asgard by his father King Odin, has filed suit against his own father in superior court

Thor's lawyer: Prince Thor didn't ask to be banished, Prince Thor didn't want to be banished and the unworthiness recieved from his father King Odin's "actions" (so called) makes him unable to lift his hammer Mjolnir

Odin: hey I stopped you from starting a war!

Thor: You didn't stop me from starting a war, you left me homeless, that's what you did!

Odin: listen you little piece of…!

A parody of the courtroom scene from The Incredibles 1 when Hartley Sawyer was fired from Flash

News reporter: in a stunning turn of events a TV studio is being sued for firing someone for reasons that apparently don't matter anymore. The plaintiff, Hartley Sawyer, who was fired from the TV show Flash for tweets he made on Twitter between 2008 and 2011 by The CW, 6 to 9 years before he even joined the show, has filed suit against the famed studio in superior court

Hartley Sawyer's lawyer: Mr Sawyer didn't ask to be fired, Mr Sawyer didn't want to be fired and the inability of the CW to move on from the past (so called) will cause him to be unemployed for the rest of his life

CW employee number 1: hey we saved the other actors from suffering from racism!

Hartley Sawyer: You didn't save the other actors from suffering from racism, you ruined my reputation because of things I did over 10 years ago, that's what you did!

Do you think the 2020s will have a Best Picture winner without an acting win?

The most recent Best Picture winner without an acting win is Parasite (2019), which didn't have any acting nominations. The longest gap we ever had between 2 Best Picture winners without an acting win was the gap between Casablanca (1943) and An American in Paris (1951). If we don't have a Best Picture winner without an acting win until 2028 or after we'll have the longest gap between 2 Best Picture winners without an acting win. Who knows? Maybe we'll have to wait over 20-40 years. After all some records took a very long time to happen again. For example it's been 86 years since the last time we had a Best Picture winner without a Best Director win, an acting win or a screenplay win with Rebecca (1940). Also the most recent Best Picture winner to not win any of its acting nominations is The Shape of Water (2017)

Star Wars: The Force Awakens $2,068,000,000 2015-2019
Avengers: Endgame $2,799,000,000 2019-present

*Bambi increased its gross because of re-releases during that time. If it had never been re-released it would've lost the record to The Aristocats in 1970, which would've later lost the record to Roger Rabbit in 1988

**Toy Story 3 got the record retroactively because at the time it came out it was believed it grossed $1.063 billion but its gross was corrected to $1.066,9 billion in 2016, which means Toy Story 3 was the highest-grossing Disney movie ever at the time

The only 32 movies that won Best Picture, Best Director, at least 1 for acting and at least 1 for screenplay

Of the 98 movies that won Best Picture, 93 of them won Best Director, at least 1 for acting and/or at least 1 for screenplay, 88 of them won Best Director and/or at least 1 for screenplay (regardless of whether they also won 1 for acting or not), 85 of them won Best Director and/or at least 1 for acting (regardless of whether they also won 1 for screenplay or not), 82 of them won at least 1 for acting and/or at least 1 for screenplay (regardless of whether they also won Best Director or not), 71 of them won Best Director (regardless of whether they also won at least 1 for acting and/or at least 1 for screenplay or not), 65 of them won at least 1 for screenplay (regardless of whether they also won Best Director and/or at least 1 for acting or not) and 58 of them won at least 1 for acting (regardless of whether they also won Best Director and/or at least 1 for screenplay or not). However it's actually rare for Best Picture winners to win 2 of the 3 or all 3 because 48 of them won both Best Director and at least 1 for screenplay (regardless of whether they also won 1 for acting or not), 44 of them won both Best Director and at least 1 for acting (regardless of whether they also won 1 for screenplay or not) and 41 of them won both at least 1 for acting and at least 1 for screenplay (regardless of whether they also won Best Director or not). And even rarer only 32 of them won Best Director, at least 1 for acting and at least 1 for screenplay. These are the only 32 movies that won Best Director, at least 1 for acting and at least 1 for screenplay (the ones that in my eyes are "the rare Best Picture winners" because these are the only 32 movies that "saved themselves" from appearing on my lists of Best Picture winners that failed to win any of the 3):

The way time travel works in the Arrowverse is dumb and illogical

Cisco's brother shouldn't even have died, Diggle's child's sex shouldn't even have changed or the fact that Iris was angry at Joe for not telling her about Francine, etc. None of the changes had even to do with Barry's mother's death. Logically it shouldn't have happened. It's as dumb as going to McDonald's in 1968 to become the 1st eater of a Big Mac only to have Michael Gambon play Gandalf instead of Ian McKellen in the present. I don't think Peter Jackson would've decided to cast Michael Gambon only because someone ate in McDonald's in 1968.

If time travel was real Back to the Future is the franchise that got time travel working in the way it should work for me

Happy 82nd birthday to George Lucas

Thank you for creating the Indiana Jones franchise. George Lucas is my 10th favorite director (behind Steven Spielberg, Christopher Nolan, James Cameron, Alfred Hitchcock, Tim Burton, Stanley Kubrick, Wes Anderson and Robert Zemeckis)
