In Canada we have Star as a sub category , it’s great. Watch a disney movie or Die Hard. 

I just want to Disney to stop blandly remaking their classic movies. How about take some of their less well received movies and remake them. Atlantis would make an awesome live action movie. If you are going to remake the classics they need to at least be visually interesting and not just a shot by shot remake. How…

I might be the only one but I’m not really a fan of Kaminski’s work all the time with Spielberg.

Hopefully the score won’t be soundmixed so low that we can’t hear it. People talk about the death of film scores but I think it’s less about the compositions and more about the sound mixing. Seems like modern film sound mixing priority - 1. Explosions 2. Sound Effects. 100. Dialogue 101. Score.

CNN had a guy on proclaiming that student debt relief was going to undermine the inflation act. https://www.crfb.org/blogs/cancelling-student-debt-would-undermine-inflation-reduction-act. Can we admit now that economists are the most worthless profession.

The ability to write off an almost completed movie seems like a weird loophole of the tax code.

It’s like Red Notice, people like Dawyne Johnson and Ryan Reynolds but let’s hire a journeyman director and a boring story to have an excuse to put them together. 

This is the problem with Netflix’s data, they look at how many minutes or whatever nonsense metric they use to indicate success. It would be like green lighting a sequel to a movie that had a 50 million dollar opening weekend and drops 80% on weekend 2. They frequently green light sequels to movies that no one really…

I would love it if Marvel gave Coogler the money to complete that final fight properly and just update the disney plus version of the movie, even if it’s used as promotion for the new movie or something.

1st I don’t understand the hate for the MCU CGI, most of it is just fine. The stand out poor stuff like the Black Panther final fight are clearly a result of last minute changes, which Marvel really needs to plan out better.

The hesitation over the answers are what bug me most about Myiam. I like her otherwise but Ken seems smoother with it all. 

Also throwing millions at the rock, Ryan Reynolds and Gal Gadot and then hiring a journeyman director is not a good decision. Content just gets dumped on Netflix and people don’t discover stuff until months later. 

Maybe Netflix needs to invest in movies, not just throw money at a few big names and expect quality. I like the Adam Project but realistically in the 80s or 90s it would have been a wonderful world of Disney movie on Sunday night. Netflix really needs to have better quality control on their film division. 

What is the US obsession with the constitution? I get most countries have something similar but only the US seems to treat it as if it was passed down by God on Mount Sinai on stone tablets. These absurd arguments that things like gay marriage and abortions can’t be done because they weren’t explicitly written down…

How is it Kevin Smith has been making movies for so long and seemingly has learned nothing about making anything look the least bit cinematic. 

I might be in the minority here but I would love if the Duffer brothers were considered to helm an MCU X-men movie. 

On paper Congo looks great but no aspect of the movie is very well done. It’s filled with good but ultimately all supporting actors, and the spectacle part is very underwhelming. 

I liked the episode but the scenes with the storm troopers on the planet looked washed out. I don’t think every cinematographer has worked out how to shoot in the volume yet. 

I sort of think Abrams and Disney took some of the wrong lessons from the prequels. The force awakens , to me, did something right by having more engaging characters, but where it fell down was leaning way to hard in the aesthetic of the OT. It would have been nice to see more urban areas, new vehicles etc, for all…

Their reliance on their algorithm really does their content a disservice. I can’t count how many times I have discovered stuff by accident months or years after it came out. Stuff gets buried on Netflix in a way it doesn’t on other streaming services.
