Star Trek and Star Wars don’t have cultural cache because they’re old. They both had cultural cache from the moment they were created until today. People didn’t suddenly wake up 40 years later and suddenly they were Star Wars fans. And it may be harder to break through to a large mainstream audience today, but then…

But there are only what, three XXX movies, and most of them came out 15-20 years ago. Just because something’s a franchise doesn’t mean that it’s particularly enduring. For a while the Bourne movies looked like a serious challenger to the Bond franchise, and then they just sort of faded away. Movie franchises have…

Here’s how to spot the difference between Star Trek, Star Wars and Avatar. Go up to anybody on the street, and ask them to name two characters from Avatar.

Look, first and foremost, he’s having fun making movies that have enough appeal that they draw in big audiences. So good for him and his team.

Does anyone know why our avatars have disappeared?

Oscar Isaac as Marc Spector: “Somehow, Thanos returned...”

We can now definitively answer the question, “What will people do with characters that enter public domain?”  They will become fodder for shitty horror films.  Yay for creativity.

It would be so cool if we respected animation enough to be satisfied with it as a medium. We are always getting live action remakes to some of the most well animated pieces of art. But yet we never see an animated adaptation of anything live action. At most, we get a movie turned into a 90s Saturday morning cartoon. I…

Oh right, the canyon episode.

Our national media fail to hold the GOP accountable for the fact that the GOP has no actual agenda or policy. They fully expect that Democrats won’t let their extreme policies happen. Their entire strategy is to propose the wackiest, most extreme ideas to the delight of their base, while counting on liberals to draw…

Just when the bloody hell did it become unreasonable to not want to catch an airborne disease?

Some supporting context: As of 2022 Iceland had a population of a little less than 380,000 with over 200,000 recorded COVID-19 infections and about 180 confirmed deaths. A bit over a 50% chance of getting infected with a virus that we knew by that point can cause permanent damage to your circulatory and immune systems.

I actually can read French somewhat decently so I read the original article. Given the context of COVID and how they wanted to, you know, collaborate with him, I'm with Jake Gyllenhaal on this one. I'm sure he did some weird creative actory stuff but hey... actors. Bidegain is the one who comes off as a pretentious…

You can just say you didn’t watch the Netflix show, it’s okay.

Reviving the Netflix shows seems like a win-win, because they have a built-in fanbase and they’re less dependent on special effects. Echo, which was a surprise success for Marvel, reportedly only cost around $40 million.

Yeah, but with ten times more charisma than Finn Jones.

New footage from the set of Daredevil: Born Again sees Deborah Ann Woll and Elden Henson back in the saddle as Karen Page and Foggy Nelson.

Ok, then let’s look ONLY at what has come out of Lucasfilm since Disney acquired it and she became president. No upcomings or animated projects, just the already released high-profile live-action stuff.

1. Episode VII - The Force Awakens
2. Rogue One
3. Episode VIII - The Last Jedi
4. Solo
5. The Mandalorian S1
6. Episode…

Wow that is a major dodge if I have ever seen one. It isnt like you ever see Kennedy’s critics even bring Marcia Lucas up, so how is that even relevant? This has a big “I cant be racist I have a black friend!” vibe.   

People who bash Kennedy are just misogynistic dumbasses, there is really no argument here.
