You’re right, of course.  FFS, John Landis still gets work.  On a kid’s show no less.

Yeah, I thought about that after I wrote it.  Of course, it can’t possibly be something that’s all that difficult to adjust, so it’s either editorial laziness or it’s editorial desperation.  Not sure which option is better, tbh.

I won’t even consider using this site on mobile.  That’s just asking for pain.

I love how the film industry “remembers” every 5-10 years that horror movies can be made cheap and can make a lot of money if they’re good.

How? By telepathy?  Even if Moore issued some blanket statement that he never again wants to talk to anyone adapting his work, how do you know Lindelof was aware of that?

Right? I was legitimately surprised by that.

I know you guys are absolutely desperate for clicks, and you lowballed someone on Fiver to get the coding done, but is it really necessary to have a “continue reading” button for one sentence and access to the comments?

Did you read the article from Deadline that Cura likned to? Lindelof wrote a generally light-hearted letter introducing himself- and trying to acknowledge all the problems Moore has had with previous adaptations- when he first got the job.  It’d be really weird to take on the job of adapting such a massive property…

Alan Moore being “slightly” humorless would be a vast improvement in his amount of humor.

C’mon, it’s really hard to write an article in under 6 minutes.

That assumes the “younger generation” is watching any of the so-called garbage movies he’s putting out now, which don’t seem to be getting watched by much of anyone.  If DeNiro is on their radar at all, it’s because they’ve gone back to watch some classic cinema.

Orson Welles did a bunch of garbage (he was voicing pea…

“Major shareholders” don’t give a fuck about “right”, they just want to make sure the stock goes up every quarter. 

Third option- no one with oversight over the IT folks gave a flying fuck about whether or not “creators” were respected with proper credits.

I heard someone mention (maybe on a YT video or something) that the Disney parks are doing absolutely no merchandising of the live action versions, and that makes so much sense. They know exactly what the value is— one or two weekends of box office, then annoying people searching Disney+ for the originals.

Wait, the live action version ends with him still as a puppet????

Isn’t this kind of like comparing horribly obnoxious noises? I mean, sure, you can decide one is less annoying than the others, but do you ever really get a reason to subject yourself to it?

*And yes, I’m technically making an assumption here, because I can honestly say I haven’t wasted my time watching any of these…

I don’t think Robbie is asked to be involved in the project without whoever brought her on assuming she’d eventually take the role.

This might be the best poster ever. Certainly its the biggest gulf between quality of movie and quality of film:

I don’t believe for a second that Margot Robbie wasn’t the first choice to play Barbie for the Barbie movie that Margot Robbie was producing.

And anyone watching on their phones or iPad or whatever over cellular is going to be considered a separate user?  Yeah, this will end well.
