Michael Bay developing Skibidi Potty film

Good to see a story focusing on environmental storytelling instead of woke diversity hires

Probably their only chance to get gen alpha to the cinemas tbh

On the one hand, Bay does one thing very well, which is spectacle and scale of mass destruction. The overuse of explosion meme is definitely a legitimate problem, and he can phone it in hard. But, as a relevant example, the Chicago invasion scene from the third Transformers is a really good depiction of an alien armada touching down and slaughter. So that works for something that's founded in potty destruction and not much else. I guess.

On the other, there is no way in either premise or execution, that you can get an audience to take a potty people invasion seriously. Not to mention that the things Gen Alpha sees on the internet are definitely around the PG-13 rating (or are simply grotesque in a way that's not easy to rate), which could push some parents away. But it's violent enough YouTube slop where it would warrant that rating.

Like 75% or the Earth's surface is covered in flavorless Mountain Dew
