I have really zero interest on Warhammer, but it is fascinating to see someone who loves and respects the IP get involved in such a project. Are they going to give him control? And if they do, is the source material good enough for a series? And they do and it is, is it going to be good? I may not watch it, but I hope…

Right after the reboot of B*tch Hunter.

Or some words can have multiple meanings, even multiple meanings of largely varying degrees. A bruise is trauma, and so is a gunshot wound. Trauma here just means injury, and so long as you understand what the injury is, the extent of it can be inferred. Psychological trauma is the same way, and it doesn’t somehow…

Is the TV landscape finally ready for ‘God Cop’?

Personally I’m hoping we get a return of Patrick “Duffles” Duffy.

Samuel L. Jackson even made up a fake spoiler about Captain Marvel just because he was so sick of being asked about it.

I like the concept of big T and little t when people talk about trauma.

Variety and THR generally don’t fall for that kind of crap -- and cut off sources that try it. That’s why they’re Variety and THR.

someone is telling vetted industry publications like Variety and THR this stuff

Squashing rumors about comic book movies is a full time job in itself. Brie Larson quit/was fired half a dozen times between Captain Marvel and Endgame. Youtube accounts with 300 subscribers know someone who works on the set of Fantastic Four that swear Topher Grace’s Venom is going to appear.

I feel like JK Simmons shows up for half a day, nails everything on the first take, and heads home. It's the only way he could be so prolific. 

Why not? She showed up to the last reunion...

If we ignore the multiversal stuff, this is a woman who is about to lose her daughter because she’s too afraid of the judgement of her father and about to lose her business and possibly her freedom because she’s too ashamed or proud to admit that she doesn’t speak english well enough to handle the tax laws. I guess…

Ok, so Jane is back, but no mention of JK Simmons??? It better be happening, especially since Lizzie couldn’t join.

Yeah, I think generational trauma is definitely thematically prominent in many films this year and seems trendy at the moment, but to say it’s never been examined well in film before this year is a clearly wrong overstatement. This piece would’ve benefitted from a narrower scope. The shift in children’s movies is more…

Does it? I do think the article is a little over the top in its “this is the first time movies have ever done this” nonsense, but I fundamentally agree that Everything is about multiversal conflict as a metaphor for generational baggage and trauma in a way that by all rights should not work at all but somehow does.

Especially silly that they cite Dune and King Richard as being explicitly not about intergenerational trauma. Paul’s entire conflict is being handed 1) his father and family’s legacy 2) generations and generations of colonialism/bene jesserit social engineering. And now I’m mulling over Power of the Dog, a movie that…

To be fair, Disney and Pixar have been at this for a while. What are Encanto (2021) or Coco (2017) if not stories about inter-generational trauma within families and the attempt to reconcile and heal it?
