not really. The initial investment needs recouped over all 4 sequels, not just the first. It’s all the new stuff he’s using and creating pushing that number up and he and the studio know it has to come in over 4 flicks not just the first.

The flaw in the argument that Black Panther did well is that the original Black Panther did exceptionally well and i’d wager to the general public was about as well known as Black Adam prior to their initial releases. The big difference, though, was that Black Panther got an intro to the public at large through Civil…

As someone surrounded by the damn things, NO! Every major road leaving this city is a damned toll road and has been for 30+ years. They were supposed to pay for the road then go away, but once you give the government a revenue stream, they won’t let it go.

Not like it’d be hard to do.  Filing your for your tag requires reporting your mileage.

They push back because oil companies line their pockets. Same reason so many forbid Tesla from selling direct using the laughable claim that dealers protect customers interest and don’t drive up prices.

What about a plugin hybrid? You only get maybe 40 miles on electric before hawing to switch over. That’d be very punitive to those people.

Problem being several people look older than they are and others look much younger than they are.  What happens when the AI gets it wrong, which it will.

Kinda furthers the point, no? We’ve got nothing else. They’re developing multiple methods which is likely for options. Plus, once you have the system down, as someone said before, gotta have a backup plan.

Passwords in an of themselves are the problem here.

Labor laws do protect speech. If you say you’re boss is acting in ways that hurt/demean the company, you can’t get fired for that. You call your boss an asshole in public, then yeah, pack your bags.

If their lawyers said that, they need better lawyers.

An expensive way is better than no way which is what we’ve had the last, what? 20 years? The alternative right now is depending on Russia.

Not good news that they cut S3 of Resident Alien in half....

I know a lot of die hards who were put off who flatly do not fit in the camp that were the toxic minority.

Not even marvel is doing everything to single narrative. The cartoons are not the same story/universe as the films and TV shows on Disney+, nor should they be.

One of Marvel’s big successes recently was a movie with three different Spidermen. People loved it and want more. Then there’s the animated Spider Verse that had like 10.

When they started these things, they claimed they wanted different genre’s of movies....Rogue One was supposed to be a gritty war movie. Suits didn’t like it and made them change to standard SW fare. Solo was supposed to be comedy, but, no. Director’s got canned and it was turned into standard SW fare again.

That’s the rub though. I tried watching classic who multiple times in the past and the low production values made it to where i couldn’t get into it.

Well, the deal was at it’s basest, we’ll give you X million dollars for streaming rights for 99% of the world. If they’re paying say, 100M a year, and they do 10 shows a year, that allows them add 10M to the budget of each episode.

Are not all colors, especially digital ones, made of up RGB or CMYK values? Certainly they cannot copyright or claim ownership over 255,0,0 (i.e. red).
