See, I believe the problem is the opposite - people wanted a new instalment of Ghostbusters, and we got a remake instead.

What game on this planet has the option of using no pronouns? Like, you get that pronouns are a basic component of the English language (and of many others) and that removing them entirely would communication extremely difficult?

You’re not missing much. Chappie is no joke in my Top 5 worst movies I’ve ever seen. I hated every single character in this movie. It was two hours locked with the most unpleasant, awful people imaginable.

The Babysitter is pretty good and worth a watch. I recommend it in a double feature with Ready or Not - both are supernatural cat-and-mouse horror about a cult trying to sacrifice someone to Satan, and both feature Samara Weaving in the lead role, though her characters are diametrical opposites.

Full disclosure: I read that as Neil Breen at first, and I was like “Why would anyone want their vision of the future to look like Neil Breen’s?”

I think a suit like that would be even harder to win, because the studio did not lie: everything in the trailer is in the movie. They never explicitly said “there will be more”, they simply let you infere that. And legally you are not responsible from someone else’s interpretation of your words, no matter how much you…

Is it though? Actors are cut from movies all the time, for numerous reasons. It would be one thing if De Armas had been highly advertised and done promotion for the movie, but that wasn’t the case here. She’s basically a cameo.

My guess is he is using "Apple Mac" as an umbrella term referring to the ipod/iphone and Apple's aesthetic as a whole. Yes, it's a sloppy/unprecise way of talking, but I'm guessing this is transcript of a live interview, not some written statement, and speech is often messy and unprecise. 

This suit was ridiculous from the get go, mostly because it opens a huge can of worms I don’t think the legal system is ready to deal with - how do you market something as intangible as a story?

Barbie is of course great, but I’m happy Blue Beetle is doing better. I finally saw it this week-end and it’s pretty good. Yeah, it’s formulaic, but it is a well-made version of the formula. It’s what Green Lantern should have been. That said, I do think it’s about 15 minutes too long.

Cops are supposed to use lethal force to protect people. Who was he protecting here? Himself, it seems, because by shooting the driver, he made the car more dangerous for everyone else.

Even if she was driving towards him, how is shooting her makes this situation any better? Instead of a car barreling towards him, the cop now has an out of control car barelling towards him.

Is that just for the initial release though? Or do we count rereleases? 

It says "finished filming", and the Deadline article linked is more precise - the show has been shot, but no post-prod has been done. Also they are shopping it around - which might not lead to anything, granted. 

I think it’s a bit ambiguous on Gwen side, actually. We never actually get to see her and Hobbie alone to get a real sense of their relationship. But the movie clearly wants us to initially think there is something there, just like Miles does: she left clothes at Hobbie’s place, Pavitr seems to think not telling…

There were some, and those were useful, but his accent and speech pattern was still a bit too unfamiliar to my French-Canadian ears for me to understand everything the first time through. I’m fully bilingual, but some accents still give me a hard time: working-class British, “Up North” British, South African, etc.

I have no doubt that it is better than the theatrical version, but only because it’s an actual movie with an actual goal in mind, and not a bunch of scenes made by different people for different purposes duct-taped into a shambling abomination. I don’t like Snyder’s vision, but he does one.

I haven’t, exactly for that reason - it’s “cut” a movie if you don’t actually edit your stuff. Also because while I have an academic interest in seeing his version of JL, 4 hours of everything I hated in BvS is a hard sell.

On the contrary, he would have a hard time on TV. Traditional TV shows have set duration they cannot extend. You have 42 minutes, and each commercial break must fall at predetermined time. You might be able to get an exception for your season premiere or finale if you are a big success, but that’s it.

Good lord, how long is this thing going to be? It’s aready two part, and I’m guessing that if they split it, it’s because it’s too long in one sitting, so each part must be about 2h30, so 5 hours in total, plus an extra hour?
