Worth noting that another Tom Holland Spider-Man movie would be referred to internally as “Spider-Man 4,” even if it’s not the final title. Wonder how many of these rumors started as wishful thinking and how many because they misunderstood what the other person was talking about.

If he wants to prove he isn’t working on it, why doesn’t he admit that he is?

Well I also put a “Coup Me” sign on his back, but that was just in good fun.

Hopefully Paste’s Editors can fix that (and they’re keeping the community comments!)

I’m glad Godzilla X Kong is doing boffo box office business. It would’ve raked in even more if they had the guts to make it a romance like Love Lies Bleeding. An ampersand is the symbol you want if they’re not necessarily shagging! Give us Kongzilla, cowards!

Well you see, when one wants to take a molehill and convince others that it’s actually a mountain, a bit of creative license is necessary. 

Genuinely don’t get how Garland being open about his plans is ‘sabotaging’ the movie

Yes, he was laid off when AV Club was bought last week. 

Use of Weapons, Excession, Matter, and The Hydrogen Sonata I think all have great visual set pieces to build a movie or series around. Consider Phlebas does also, but it’s also the book where Banks seemed to still be kind of feeling out what the Culture novels would become, so it’s a bit uneven. Surface Detail would…

Sam might be gone, but the tradition of having the weekend box office list be messed up continues.

Apart from the fact I lived there about 10 years before I read my first Iain Banks novel that got me hooked — The Wasp Factory — you would have me beat!

I really don’t see how being a felon prevents you from starring in Home Improvement.

Make it a dark comedy where at the end of season 1 it’s revealed the Wilson Tim has been talking to on the other side of the fence is his severed head on a pike. Season 2 explore’s Tim’s insanity and whether he killed Wilson or someone else.

No need to pay me, ABC, the idea’s free.

So, if Elon Musk — a big fan of Iain M. Banks — chose to bankroll a series of Culture movie/TV adaptations I’d... still think he was a worthless human being... but I would still watch them (assuming no musky editorial interference).

The son who wants a bigger role can play all three sons. Problem solved!

Cast the new neighbor as, you guessed it... Frank Stallone.

He was definitely noteworthy in Gen V.

I’m never going to be happy about someone losing their job, but it’s striking how much more informative and less irritating this box office article is than what we’re used to.

Nobody assumed that The Flash would be a hit, especially with Miller’s “issues” and the decision to basically reboot all the DC Comics properties, which was taken before the release.

I know Zaslav is a complete fucking idiot. But when I watched The Flash recently, half of it, I just could not believe even he could have looked at that and thought it was anything but another brick in the wall of the terrible Snyderverse...the fact that he really thought it would be successful or the narrative around…
