The list of everything you can save money on if you film everything in the dark:

There are thousands of cars that have the hood release, trunk release, or fuel door release in the same exact place. The lever can’t be on the door because of the way the door latch mechanism works.

Animation is expensive unless you are doing super-cheap 3-d cel-shaded garbage like that new Star Wars series.

I disagree with the podrace scene. It’s clearly an homage to Ben Hur...except that in Ben Hur the chariot race is the culmination of an entire movie’s worth of character issues between two old friends who can’t mend their ways, filmed solely in live action in a freaking real-to-goodness arena with real freaking…

The harder you pump your arms, the faster your facial hair grows. It’s a scientific fact.

Columbo stole it. His frumpy exterior is the epitome of an android device. Unlike Apple products which are true simplicity and are derived from so much more than just the absence of clutter and ornamentation. It’s about bringing order to complexity. 

What surprised me is that Raiders was even nominated for Best Picture!

Is “cinematography” even possible when 85% of it was done in post production on a computer? 

It is crazy ambitious, but it’s also calling the Academy on its pretentiousness. Which is what it needs.

The arm chair analysis around the office seemed to be that when Rodgers went back in the second half, the OL were told to do everything to keep Rodgers untouched; if you get called for holding, then so be it. And ultimately, the refs seemed to stop calling holding penalties in the second half.

Saltine American, huh? So gawker is good with “urban dictionary approved” ethnic slangs?

In just the movie before, Kylo was force stopping laser blasts. Frankly, he should be throwing mere guards around like crash test dummies.

Its also a nice jumping in point for newcomers to esports to attach to a city or state which will only help grow the league.

Frankly, I don’t even see how Black Panther would get on a “Most Socially Relevant Film” list. It’s a movie where a major plot point hinges on the idea that even in a Afr0-futuristic forward-looking society, Africans STILL need to kill each other in order to decide who the leader is like out of an old Tarzan serial.

Warcraft had a production cost of $160 mil. It made $433 mil worldwide ( thanks, Asian markets! ).

Take the needless ending CGI fight scene at the end of Wonder Woman ( the rest of WW is pretty good) and expand it 2 hours long. That’s pretty much what all the other DC movies are like. Just a series of loud CGI pummeling sequences.

Personally...

That would be true....if you honestly think that 100% of Disney’s outlay is based solely on low-income workforce, and doesn’t include things like legal fees, R&D, equipment maintenance, logistics, real estate maintenance, marketing, advertising, job training, property development, etc.

I was under the impression that 60's batman comic book zaniness became zany due to the popularity of TV series zaniness, not the other way around.

As someone who saw and enjoyed the original in the theaters....yeah,it wasn’t well-received.
