This comment made me realize that English needs a word for “sequel to a sequel”

It’s not. It’s off topic and should be deleted

Edit: can we please stop upvoting everything that insults Reddit? If you are defined by hating your ex, you need a new personality.

Am I being trolled or do people not know how years work

Oh boy. I just reread your edited comments. It’s hard to keep up when you edit like that

But yes, I would still care to hear your 40s and 50s examples. If you have one where overture+credits approaches 10 minutes, I’d be shocked. As we’ve discussed, some examples in the 60s can hit 5 minutes, but that’s about the most I’ve seen

Which Lawrence of Arabia version from the 40s or 50s (your words) are you referring to?

If you mean the famous 60s film…. Yes, it has a minute of credits and another 4 or 5 for the overture. Not credits.

Again, still looking for examples of extended credit sequences. Overtures are basically the same as intermissions. That’s a totally different beast.

Even if you want to lump them together, we’re still at the “one or two” I mentioned. Huge Hollywood blockbusters. Exceedingly rare.

Why do people keep naming 60s films with 4 minutes of musical intros when I’m asking for 40s and 50s films with 10 minute credit intros lol?

Edit: overture is the word I was looking for, not “musical intro”. But that’s not a thing that happened in early cinema (barring Chaplin, who had strict control of scores - would be interested if someone else cares to google that)

4 minutes. That’s a great example of the rare symphonic opening I was referencing.

But that’s also not the 40s or 50s.

Please name one. Never seen one that had more than 2 minutes of opening credit even if you include the extra symphonic stuff as “credits” (we don’t count previews toward runtimes now, so not sure it’s a fair comparison). Maybe one or two had a dedicated symphonic opening but that was exceedingly rare

The Truffaut film referenced is an hour and 45 minutes.

What movie had 10 minutes of opening credits? Back when credits were at the open, it used to be about 30 seconds of credits.

Same here

It doesn’t sound like they are saying the are going to block sideloading, just sideloading stuff like Kodi that are often used for illegal streaming

This was my immediate guess. Not even obtuse terms, just not wanting kids to stumble on torture porn and snuff films

I don’t think anyone thought he was criticizing free speech. Yes, it’s a bad title, but it’s still hilarious to go to Saudi Arabia and pretend like they have more free speech rights

Those dogs need a field. They are ready to play

Like you said, it’s not new information that Tik Tok hides posts on certain topics and promotes posts on other topics though, so it isn’t surprising either way. I’ll add that they do it with more than just pro-China content

His pardon cracks me up. There’s little “law and order” logic to it.

And I know he’s basically guilty of the charges because i-errr… some close friends of mine…. Used his platform and got highly quality drugs

Nope. Also seen an increase in texts

No, this is the internet, go away with your facts and reality!!! I want to be mad at Disney!!!

Find me a company where this isnt in their terms

Google “accounting equation”. That principle applies to profit too

Why do both sides of an equation need to balance?
