Eh I’ll pirate it.
We're cool with low-effort "organic" ads now, are we? 🖕🏽
News about an animated film in a community called animation? Isn’t that what this place is for?
I wouldn't consider a review of a newly released movie relevant to the interests of this community by an established publication an ad.
No but your link with tickets makes this post basically an ad.
In the discussion posts for X-Men '97 I also share the stream link for where people can watch it. That's basically the digital equivalent of sharing a link for ticket purchases. Ultimately I do that so it's easier for people that are interested to follow-up and access the media.
On reflection I suppose you're right it's an ad but any sort of promotion is technically an ad, so I guess based on that almost every post in this community so far would qualify (release news, trailers, etc.).
If it actually bothers people, I'm willing to have a meta discussion about the future of this community and where we draw the line about what type of ads that we do or don't want.
Saw it tonight and really enjoyed it. It owes a lot to Ghost in the Shell, but it’s been 30 years so it’s no issue for me. It’s a tight cyberpunk noir buddy conspiracy flick. Recommended.
Felt a bit disappointed by the ending, I think the story needed more deeper meaning and felt rushed.
