      Clearly the movie producers were too dumb to add good pop culture references, movies like Toy Story, and Ready Player One are so good because they made so many old movie references, like Alien, King Kong, and Jurassic Park, so personally it isn’t really a pop culture reference unless it comes from something that is obviously linked to said movie, this goes back to Ready Player One and Toy Story including the chest bursted reference from the Alien franchise, so, in all honesty, the emoji movie (I didn’t capitalize it because it doesn’t deserve it) doesn’t really stand up to any pop culture fandoms like the movies I had just mentioned, so, the emoji movie loses a good 8 out 10 in my movie scale, and all the other factors that the Possum brings up just brings it to -1, making the one of the worst movies ever to be seen by eyes (it also made a mockery of Patrick Stewart, if that’s how you spell is name, by making him the poop emoji)

    Adding on:
    The Lego Movie worked because it wasn't a movie about Legos, it was a story told through the medium of legos. You could probably remove all the Lego elements and it's still a genuinely good plot. In a similar vein, the Sonic Movie was not a movie about Sonic, but rather, a movie happening to contain Sonic.

      Richard Moore, after leaving Disney to work for Sony, went to work on the Emoji movie, as well as Spider Man: Into the Spiderverse. While the Emoji movie is bad, it was something different, outside of all the sequels and Disney remake at the time. Like it or not, it's different/unique ideas that are risky and expensive help push the media. For good or bad, I barely like the Emoji movie more than any of the live-action Disney remakes COMBINED. I won't watch it, but I at least appreciate a bad new idea than a bland, reused one.

    This seems like more of a rip-off of Wreck-it Ralph than the Lego Movie. Particularly how the main character is unsatisfied with his place, breaks his role and everyone is going to die because of him. And the female lead turns out to be a princess. By the way, does the female lead replace the villain as the leader of the digital environment? If so, that's the same too.

    Indeed, an emoji has no subtext, which is why I rarely use them, and the only times I do use them are after a sentence to express the tone, the reason being that things like sarcasm may be difficult to register in a written down/typed medium, as apposed to face to face conversation, where things like body language and tone of voice can indicate the meaning behind words. To use your example “that’s funny”, written down, it could be interpreted as ha ha funny, strange, or uncomfortable, in in person conversation, we have body language and tone of voice to distinguish these, imagine someone telling a story that you think is hilarious, if you said “that’s funny” then you would be smiling, and you would be trying to cover your laughter long enough to talk. Now if someone said a story that they thought was funny, but you didn’t, and you sarcastically said “that’s funny”, you would have an annoyed expression and voice, but the words that get written down remain the same, so talking through things like comments or text can use emojis IN TANDEM with actual words to explain both, the actual message, and the tone

    I mean as a person who is in marketing the general use of emojis is that on a text based medium with no body language facial expressions or social context, and emoji cannot be misinterpreted. That’s extremely advantageous to companies because it means at no point will what you have said be misunderstood or misrepresented. In many ways the English language is too diverse, because it was created under the impression that you would see the person saying it. An emoji takes that place, filling in the emotion by allowing the visual use of a facial expression that can no longer misinterpret a phrase like “that’s funny”.
    If you send me something and I say “that’s funny” you might hope to assume I mean that I actually found it funny, but that’s just it, you’re assuming. That’s funny with a smiling emoji means it was a positive interaction, rolling eyes or squint means it’s not.
    It is in many ways lazy communication because you could write out all your thoughts and make a constructed argument on how you justify the positivity of the funny, or you could...send an emoji and achieve the exact same thing in two seconds with even less room to be misunderstood.
    See what I mean?

    • @NeonSonOfXenon
      @NeonSonOfXenon 3 года назад +21

      "send an emoji and achieve the exact same thing"
      This is the key here, and highlights the flaws in Possum's analysis of language use. Language is about communicating an idea and being understood. English is no more or less advantageous than any other language at making a point at any level of nuance, and this includes the use of emoji. If anything, one could argue there's nuance in the way that emoji are used, but that's a topic for another day.

      @@NeonSonOfXenon while I agree with you both, at the end of the day the emojis you’d find on an average phone are designed to be as clean as possible, which aren’t nearly as effective as something such as ascii art, memes on the internet or even rage face comics. Humans are designed to look for micro expressions, and while something like a squiggly drawing of a frown or a screenshot of a shitty render may not be quality, their imperfections add to the character and make it suited to represent emotions that may not even have a name.

    • @Flaris
      @Flaris 2 года назад +7

      Honestly I think you make a fair point. English is a great language, but it does run into issues when it comes to online communication. You do have to assume a lot. And sometimes people assume the worst or assume the wrong thing from what the other person is saying. An emoji might be a simple and arguably lazy way to clarify things. But unless you are going to write an essay for every sentence and explain things so clearly that there is no room for misinterpretation...it's not a bad thing to have.
      It just becomes an issue if overused. If all you do is throw out a string of emojis or throw them into every single sentence...yeah that's more an issue.
