Was it purposeful that the character diet mtn dew was basically just the actor Hasan Piker? Gym bro, horny in a very weird way, ect.
Zach Goldberg
2023-10-03 22:10:27 +0000 UTCWhy doesn’t my wife like soda?
Dustin
2023-09-27 14:52:58 +0000 UTCWhat happens to limited edition sodas that are only on shelves for a month or two then go away? oh yeah and also, did the sodas support bud light when he got cancelled?
Keroko
2023-09-27 05:25:56 +0000 UTCDoes Diet Coke enjoy the feeling of mentos or is it more like torture

2023-09-26 04:41:36 +0000 UTCThe scratchers cum when they get scratched, and soda want to be drank, what is it like for a cig to be smoked?
Nick Jones
2023-09-25 22:15:30 +0000 UTCI know I'd be better off as a utility soda. More useful too. Does the unlikely mixture of reincarnation and animism have to be true for me to fulfill my destiny? Tell me there's another way!
Orville Sashay
2023-09-25 17:38:25 +0000 UTCIt would be the best character and completely eclipse all other characters. They should make a Polar film, it only after Sodas 2 and Scratchers come out. Build the cinematic universe some more
Lavinia Petrescu
2023-09-25 17:16:45 +0000 UTCHow do you actually write the script when there's four credited writers - my best guess is that you all collectively break the plot and then one of you writes the proper script and it gets punched up?
Matthew Perpetua
2023-09-25 16:58:08 +0000 UTCI see my blunder not as folly but as a happy accident, because now I have another good reason, on top of many others, to revisit the film again. Good day!
Petergrifgin
2023-09-25 12:24:44 +0000 UTCMr. Pibb was reformulated and rebranded to Pibb Xtra, who was in the film. Why waste a question if you’re not going to do your research like a real fan would?
Austin Bradley
2023-09-25 12:22:55 +0000 UTCMr.Pibb was conspicuously absent from the film. Could you shed some light on any of the behind the scenes drama that led to the snub? Did Dr. Pepper's agents lay out any conditions on Pibb's involvement due to their ugly history, or was it more related to the unseemliness and slovenliness of his potassium benzoate preservatives as opposed to Pepper's sodium benzoate?
Petergrifgin
2023-09-25 12:02:08 +0000 UTCWill "All The Bubbles In the World" be released as a single? How involved was Nate Ruess in the creative process of the film? Did he cameo as a soda? I know I definitely heard him on that track, but I didn't catch him in the credits.
Petergrifgin
2023-09-25 11:49:34 +0000 UTCDid the guy who went crazy from bearing witness to the sodas become Chips, the New Tarzan?
Jash Bugner
2023-09-25 00:16:35 +0000 UTCM&MS AND SODAS SAME UNIVERSe?
shonenxgump
2023-09-24 22:19:36 +0000 UTCHow will this movie be retitled for foreign localities? Soda isn't a popular term in eu/uk/ireland. Most people just say "getting a can of X" but "Cans" might lead everyone to think the films about alcoholic beverage. Perhaps an R rated cut of the film would be possible? Could use AI to replace soda brand logos with alcoholic logos. Something like how March of the Penguins outside of France was all Morgan Freeman'd, but in France the penguins had names and adorable french accents. edit: follow up question, similar to the first but more of a focus on China. How will Disney change the film for the locality? I think you could still keep in how much the sodas want to be drank, its a nice parallel of sacrificing yourself for the good of communism. But the sodas dying? And having souls? It might be a little too close to ghosts and maybe even gays.
ToddUmptious
2023-09-24 21:39:20 +0000 UTCWhat was it like working with the sodas?
plopadop
2023-09-24 20:51:34 +0000 UTCwhat was the inspiration for sodas? what event popped the tab in your brains to make this incredible idea fizz it’s way into the real world?
Ben
2023-09-24 19:40:23 +0000 UTCFurther, what’s the artistic purpose for featuring Surge with this obvious ambiguity instead of Vault, which would have avoided this controversy?
Austin Bradley
2023-09-24 14:47:37 +0000 UTCDuring Surge’s death, it’s stated that Surge was discontinued in 2003. This ignores the revival in 2015, still available to this day. Is this an error or should the audience interpret this as a political statement against the re-release’s formulation?
Austin Bradley
2023-09-24 14:44:48 +0000 UTCAre 2 liters like mythical giants to the soda can community?
Andrea Dielman
2023-09-24 12:33:07 +0000 UTCA lot of soda humor is related to cans, are the bottled sodas a separate culture?
Pedder Chestnut
2023-09-24 05:17:30 +0000 UTCHow do sodas treat other non-carbonated beverages? Would sodas be friends with Brisk iced tea or Snapple? Brisk is in the same fountain as Pepsi a lot of the time so does she act weird about the lack of bubbles?
Hernan Perez-Mckay
2023-09-24 04:49:28 +0000 UTC☝️
Orville Sashay
2023-09-24 04:37:39 +0000 UTCDoes every soda get reincarnated as itself after it's been finished? Am I drinking the same Coke Zero over and over? Does it remember my face?
Joshua von Aulock
2023-09-24 01:42:20 +0000 UTCare there any sodas or other beverages you couldn’t secure the rights to that you wish could’ve been in the film?
Elaine Bennett
2023-09-23 20:52:35 +0000 UTCCoke Zero is absent from the movie because he is being "restocked", does this indicate that sodas have some sort of shared hive intelligence or are they reincarnated?
Aaron Christmas
2023-09-23 19:35:21 +0000 UTCwhat is dr pepper's doctorate in?
otterhouse-five
2023-09-23 18:55:24 +0000 UTCWas the decision to completely erase Mtn Dew Zero (superior to Diet Dew in every way) from the sodaverse: (a) done in anticipation of him being the star of Sodas 2, (b) dictated by PepsiCo, (c) knuckling under to the diva demands of Hasan, or (d) was it just an oafish goof by the writers?
Jake McIntyre
2023-09-23 16:45:08 +0000 UTCOnce the Soda actors were done filming on set, what kind of lives did they go back to? Their hometown 7-11s in small towns across America?
Andrea Dielman
2023-09-23 16:38:12 +0000 UTCIs the Soda (subject/character) the vessel (can/bottle) or the soda (liquid)? Is it the can that talks/thinks or is it the soda fluid?
Andrea Dielman
2023-09-23 16:32:47 +0000 UTCDo international versions of US based sodas exist? Is chinese coke a chinese version of coke or is it just coke?
Kyle Berner
2023-09-23 15:01:04 +0000 UTCWill there be a sequel called beers?
Noah Jackson
2023-09-23 13:36:42 +0000 UTCAs a human, was it hard to get into character as a soda, something you genuinely are not

NYG
2023-09-23 06:37:12 +0000 UTCAre there multiple bottles of each soda in the fridge at the circle k? Is our protagonist Coke, for example, just one particular bottle of coke, with dozens of identical counterparts? Or is each soda as represented in the film more of a collective ontological representation of its brand in its entirety?
hailey
2023-09-23 06:09:54 +0000 UTCThis is the biggie imo
Orville Sashay
2023-09-23 06:02:16 +0000 UTCDo the off brand sodas life in ghettos and do the name brand have racial bias's against them?
Marshall
2023-09-23 05:26:22 +0000 UTCif you pour a soda in a cup does the cup talk? do canadian sodas call themselves pops?
Blaine McLaughlin
2023-09-23 04:35:16 +0000 UTCDuring Surge's death scene, there was mention of a soda god as well as a regular human god. Does soda jesus also exist in this universe, and do sodas drink his soda like catholics drink Jesus's blood?
RandyAndy
2023-09-23 04:24:49 +0000 UTCIs there a particular reason you left Mt. Dew Zero out of this? I knew you people were fucking woke but this level of bias is really shocking

Felicia Broadus
2023-09-23 03:21:20 +0000 UTCyou ever find a soda in a convenience store that’s kinda sticky for some reason?
Guck Buck
2023-09-23 02:28:58 +0000 UTCSo what's up with the sodas? Are they alive? Are they possessed by demons? Are they simply the equivalent of dogs?
Sam Colburn
2023-09-23 02:06:02 +0000 UTCI also wish La Croix had featured in the film…. Perhaps in Sodas 2
hailey
2023-09-23 01:45:25 +0000 UTCAny chance the Faygo’s will have their own “penguins of Madagascar” style spin off series?
Mike Machesky
2023-09-23 01:31:13 +0000 UTCI understand that in early preproduction Coke was more of an older George Clooney-type father character who had to learn to accept that his children had grown into adult sodas in their own right. Where did the idea to turn him into the young soda we know and love come from?
Lord Beerus
2023-09-23 00:25:13 +0000 UTCWill there be any Sodas attractions coming to Disney parks?
happy_doodles
2023-09-22 23:43:51 +0000 UTCCan you describe for us how life may differ for a soda in a vending machine than that of soda in a convenience store? Also, did Walt Tremblay audition for a part?

2023-09-22 23:13:48 +0000 UTCPeople will focus on Hassan and Felix’s performances, as they are podcast titans and multimillionaires. But I’d like to know how you connected with Branson Reese, the most talented voice actor and improviser in a generation. What was his fee and will he get resids.

2023-09-22 22:15:08 +0000 UTCi've always wondered how you guys go about writing these longer form prewritten eps. do you like pick a day and get together and force yourselves to be creative somehow (beer)? or is it more like you just add stuff to a doc as it occurs to you? and hey congrats again on 300 eps boys

Cupine2003
2023-09-22 20:51:02 +0000 UTCAs a Texan, I find it offensive that Big Red was portrayed as "the Texas soda" when Dr. Pepper is our states pride and joy. Do you have any plans to address this plot hole in Sodas 2? Also I'm stuck on the second level of the Sodas tie-in Nintendo DS exclusive game, can you guys give some advice on how to beat it?

2023-09-22 18:32:45 +0000 UTCConsidering other soda adjacent beverages, such as monster and rockstar, have personalities, what sort of personalities would you imagine for Arizona iced tea half and half/Arnold Palmer or any other members of the Arizona line of products?
genieous
2023-09-22 18:28:37 +0000 UTCThis is a question for Scratchers. On most scratchers you can just uncover the area with the barcode and scan it to see if that's a winner. Would that be like a ruined orgasm for a scratcher and do any scratchers have a kink for that?
Ontario Guy
2023-09-22 18:21:37 +0000 UTCIs there discrimination in the soda world? Perhaps by color, caffeine content, or corporate overlord. I imagine a Pixar film smooths off the rough edges of society to tell its tale.

2023-09-22 18:03:43 +0000 UTCWill there be a commentary track for Sodas?
Cupine2003
2023-09-22 18:03:15 +0000 UTCTwo more related ones: In June it was announced that Circle K was opening up more Chicago stores (https://www.cspdailynews.com/company-news/circle-k-opening-more-urban-stores-chicago). There's been a lot of speculation that this is simply cashing in on Sodas' popularity, but there's also rumors that this is in preparation for a Babe: Pig in the City style sequel. Can you confirm or deny? Naperville has been buzzing with fans trying to get a picture with the Sodas cooler and even the Circle K sign. It's obvious that the film didn't take place at the Fox Valley Mall Circle K, but there's heated debate happening about whether the Circle K in Sodas is the one on Route 59 (in my opinion context clues make this painfully obvious) or Washington Street. Can you guys settle this once and for all?
