I already tired of this joke and I haven’t even seen the movie.

At first I thought it looked funny but the incessant ads are making me want to bash my head in

I guess. It feels pretty tame compared to the advertising a couple decades ago, but I'm not watching cable anymore.

They keep acting like it’s some genius concept and not a meme that’s been floating around since 2009.

The appeal seems from the marketing to be “Look how crazy this concept is! What a kooky title! Who could come up with that!”

And the answer is an 11 year old.

The appeal is watching an animal go crazy and kill people in gruesome, over the top ways. Why is this seemingly so hard to grasp for some people?

Because movies are serious and if it’s any less somber than EO it’s not for some on this sub.

I dont think anyone knows the timeline. They found the bear after it ODd. No one was there.

You don't have to be there at the time. The LD50 of cocaine (the amount necessary to be a lethal dose for 50% of test subjects) is 96mg per kg of bodyweight. The bear weighed 79kg and was found to have eaten 34kg of cocaine.

How does this give you Disaster Movie vibes? This doesn't look like high art, but it at least looks like a movie, unlike Disaster Movie.

It’s a gimmick movie who’s entire premise revolves around one goofy idea.

With Banks directing I wonder what she will blame the failure on this time.

Re-use the same excuses or come up with something new?
