By Pedja Go To PostIncredible how they keep fucking up these already huge characters while Marvel made films with a talking racoon gross over $700m.Fuck.
Don't let Willkiller see this.
GotG was great btw.
Is the Water World with Steve Zissou the start of Jeff Goldblum getting roles where he acts ultra weird?
By Pedja Go To PostIncredible how they keep fucking up these already huge characters while Marvel made films with a talking racoon gross over $700m.The problem is Disney for the most part they aren't trying to win awards (aside from their Black Panther push), as that shit is meaningless. What they're focused on is money, and when you're asking people to spend $20 per ticket, people at least know what they're getting with a Marvel movie which is why they could seriously put out a Squirrel Girl movie and it'll make more than 90% of DC movies.
DC ever since the Nolan trilogy seems to try to make "real" films based on kid shit. Just make an enjoyable movie where Batman and Superman are beating up bad guys. There's no reason Ant Man 2 should almost make more than Justice League or Captain Marvel make more than any DC movie.
By Moris Go To PostI have a lot of issues with Soul, the tina fey switcharoo + black protag is now an animal thing is so tired. It's entertaining but a total letdown.Damn they did the Princess and the Frog thing again lmao
By Dark PhaZe Go To PostWW is atrocious
it really is
By Dark PhaZe Go To PostWW is atrociousCalling WW atrocious is a compliment. The movie wishes it was that good
Saw WW84 last night. Went in expecting the absolute worst and in many ways it was, however I thought the first half was rather inoffensive.
By Zabojnik Go To PostSaw WW84 last night. Went in expecting the absolute worst and in many ways it was, however I thought the first half was rather inoffensive.I expected shit based on the posts in this thread and my expectations were still too high
My expectations for WW84 are already ultra low considering the casting of the villain and her whole look/persona (fursona?).
By LFMartins86 Go To PostWW84 must have been doing really well on HBO Max because WB are apparently fast tracking a sequel.
Letting Jenkins write is just... she’s a producer at best.
The Midnight Sky was pretty bad
Some visually nice shots but the way the story went was very surface level and pointless in the end.

Jenkins about to save Nolan's precious theater experience
The announcement comes after a relatively impressive box office haul over the weekend following its simultaneous Christmas Day release in theaters and on HBO Max. While health experts [say] …that a movie theater is pretty much the last place they would visit during the COVID-19 pandemic, the studio reports that Wonder Woman 1984 “took in an estimated $36.1 million globally from 42 markets in release this weekend (including U.S. and Canada). This takes the international running cume to $68.3 million, and the worldwide tally to $85 million.”
By Freewheelin Go To PostThe Midnight Sky was pretty badAgreed. I don't even know what the point of it was.

By syquil Go To Postperplexed as to why one would actually watch the new wonder woman movie.For some reason people do things just so that they can bitch about it.

Watched Soul today!
Thought it was Good, but not amongst Pixar's great. The animation and soundtrack were incredible, but the story and the message they wanted to relay seemed muddled. Inside Out and CoCo did it much better and had a way more emotional punch.
Having said that, I am glad it was made and if we get another Soul-like quality from now on, I would be happy. Onward and Toy Story 4 didn't do it much for me, while I thought Incredibles 2 was a step down from the the first one.

It really is amazing.
Under the new strategy, there will be two cinematic universes under the DC banner: the DC Extended Universe (DCEU) and the DC Films multiverse. Films like Joker and The Batman will exist as part of DC Films’ multiverse, which will be comprised of individual stories based on DC characters that do not tie into a bigger narrative arc.
Movies like Wonder Woman, Shazam!, Aquaman, Flash, and likely future Superman and Green Lantern movies will fall under the DCEU. Wonder Woman and the gang will have their own stories and then come together in some kind of Justice League setting again. This means there can be two different Batman (Batmen?) around the same time: Robert Pattinson can have his own adventure in Matt Reeves’ The Batman and Ben Affleck or a new actor can play Bruce Wayne in the DCEU.lol
By Laboured Go To PostGoing to try and continue watching Host.
Well that was thoroughly unpleasant to watch, but in the good way.
Oh Christ Jenkins is trying to Richard Donner-ise this thing.
This is unpleasant to watch in the very bad way.

By Laboured Go To PostWell that was thoroughly unpleasant to watch, but in the good way.They did a fantastic job with it given that everyone did their own makeup, stunts and special effects.
Just finished Soul. Loved it.
wo
By reilo Go To Postlolthis is literally just "we'll also make as many Batman movies as we want because we know those are the ones you want"
I was actually kinda intrigued in the fully Affleck made Batman movie
Good or bad, I would prefer something that isn't made by a cadre of writers and filtered through a million test screenings

By diehard Go To PostI was actually kinda intrigued in the fully Affleck made Batman movieI thought that was the project that caused his eating, drinking, and smoking problems to come back to the surface.

The fact no one at WB has realized the answer to their problem is the BatFam AKA the best thing in cape comics is concerning. It's right there. Smaller more action focused films centered around the Robins, Harley, Catwoman, and the entire Batman gallery. Each of them different type of genres.
Imagine a Red Hood and Red Robin movie with the style and tone of John Wick.
Nightwing neo-noir
Catwoman would be an Ocean 11's style heist film
