A lot of Gen-X kid culture always had a built-in time limit, because frankly a lot of it was garbage designed to sell toys. It’s really hard to make that stuff relevant or interesting past a certain point.

I never saw any of the Transformers movies past the original, but from what I understand there was never any real attempt to create a coherent or consistent universe or overarching storyline, and each subsequent sequel amounted to a quasi-reboot, to the point where the final movie in the Bay sequence had almost…

How does the article not make this joke? The mind boggles.

The final episode felt like an assembly cut. There was too much of everything in a way that deflated the pace. And the writers and editors struggled to maintain suspense across all of the subplots.

This interview will be really funny to look back on when he ends up doing a cameo as Brian Braddock or Cannonball or something.

Miller wanted make his own version, and the studio wanted him to make a Spielberg version. Which is what Spielberg disciple, Zemekis delivered.

Looking forward to this. Reminds me of all the AA games we used to get during the X360/PS3 days.

I would have put The Northman on this list. It isn’t fantasy, exactly, but it has the texture of a Conan story and brief visionary digressions into the supernatural. It’s hard to think of another movie from this year as committed to its setting.

Listen, in this writer’s opinion, the man will be lucky if 500 people manage to see his next flick, and it has nothing to do with straight to streaming release, and everything to do with the allegations levied against him by daughter Dylan Farrow.

Their is not the same as they!!??

Their ability to draw an audience.;)

Maybe I just don’t understand the studio’s reasoning, but this seems like the worst of both worlds. They pause the future projects in a tacit acknowledgement that Ezra Miller is radioactive, but then they also move ahead with an expensive blockbuster that hinges (at least in part) on his ability to draw an audience.

the complaint about things being too long is a bit ridiculous. it’s not like the person making an hour long video about Game X being dog shit is keeping someone from finding the 5 minute article or video.

For the love of god, just make tablet and desktop apps with a legacy mode that works like the old Comixology. And get all these fucking comics (that I love) out of my Kindle library where they junk everything up.

they’re making it because people want it.

I’ve been waiting to see a trans reading of Crimes of the Future. Cronenberg’s movies have always dealt with bodies, dysphoria, and transformation, but this one feels much more attentive to social constraints on the body and questions of self-determination. And it seems to treat its “new flesh” with more ambivalence…

If you can’t tell me why X show sucks in 5 minutes, you need to rethink your argument, or maybe drop one of the 239 nitpick points and stick to the big ones.

Yes! And, if we’re really laying it on thick, they could do a cute fade from the Renaissance to the present.

One resigns and a second is fired, the latter almost immediately launching a YouTube channel called “Tread On Me”, which covers everything from men’s rights to anti-vaccine tirades to 37-minute long critiques of women in superhero films.

So, is this going to a movie about Harley’s emotional journey as the Joker first empowers her to pursue a life or crime and then drinks himself to death, leaving her with only her notoriety? Joker: “We’re far from the shallows, Harl.”
