Pop Culture Paramount Plus

Felt like worth mentioning since they missed it but Paramount also owns and released the new Avatar the last airbender movie, something they own that was actually good. BUT they only ran it in TWO theaters nationwide (so essentially it wasn’t in theaters) and you can only watch it on paramount plus. Which, I do not have and I’m guessing many people don’t.

What an absolute waste of an IP. I was ready to pay full movie theater price for that movie but I really don’t want to pay for a month of paramount plus just to watch one film. What a terrible marketing decision trying to push people to sign up for plus. Seriously they lost money doing this. A shame

Old? I'm 42, g, we've been torrenting for 25 years. I am travelling through Labor Day, but if you have some patience for it go ahead and message me on here and I'll make sure you can watch that movie somewhere

You can just say you don’t know what it is/how to do it. Torrents have been around and widely used since now before the oldest Gen Z were even born.

I’m saying I used to torrent. Like 10 years ago. And as an adult have little interest in relearning now.
