If the Malibu Dream House gets nuked at some point during the film, you’ll have your answer.

So that Barbie/Oppenheimer release weekend? You know, the most opposite-seeming major films of all time? Yeah, turns out one is a Book of Genesis metaphor and the other, a Book of Revelations metaphor.

Half-assing is too hard!

I hope The Duchess is a Time Lord. 

As a man who’s hair is increasing going grey. Captain Christopher Pike’s magnificent quiff is hair goals for all Silver Foxes 

Superfan here: Neil Diamond did have a song about weed. “The Pot Smoker’s Song” is a deep cut off one of his lesser known albums, Velvet Gloves And Spit. It’s not very good; it’s a goofy chorus amid “verses” that are recordings of people testifying how weed led them to the heavier stuff and messed up their lives. Now…

Ahem

Yeah, most of these I knew. But I will admit this is the first I heard of “Kitty” vs “Mickey”. I was never a fan of Hey Mickey, but the original just sounds better to me.

Did you know that “Smooth Criminal” by alt-rock giants Alien Ant Farm was originally performed by a little-known artist named Michael Jackson?

How can Nic Cage come back for a cameo if Nic Cage has never played this role before?

while seeing Pet Shop Boys on this list, I just remember another big 80's hit , Naked Eye’s “Always Something There to Remind Me” which all my life thought was an original 80s song and after watching Last Night in Soho, learning there that it was cover from a 60's singer Sandie Shaw...and while on the topic of this…

I’ll be curious to see how they handle the hair. Cage has been valiantly? fighting a losing battle with his hairline, and I wonder if I’d be able to pay attention to his performance instead of looking for the seams.

“Up, up and away!”

In this case it’s because they obviously want people to look everywhere except at Miller. I’m half surprised they didn’t change the name to Batman 3 And the Flash.

Amy Winehouse’s “Valerie”? Yeah that’s actually from The Zutons, and you know what: It ain’t a half-bad summery pop jam.

I still meet people who should know better who don’t know that Hound Dog was a Big Mama Thornton original

While that’s certainly true, there are plenty of examples of studios mining their IP and still coming out with a good movie that does something new or interesting with the property. Even in this list you have movies like Malificent which weren’t content to simply retell a classic story beat for beat with a live action…

(Confession time: Flood is still one of my favorite albums of all time, full stop.)

I really wish the DC side of things had been an actual competitor to the MCU, it is a shame to see glimmering specks of hope here and there that just don’t compare to the overall interconnectedness of the well laid out and rigorously planned opposition.
As the son of a comic book collector, there is nothing more I…

I almost never put Christopher Robin in the same grouping as the likes of Pinocchio and Aladdin. That film seemed to be a genuine sequel with intent outside of a soul-less retreading of an animated classic. It may be a bit more adult and droopy than most but it was a wonderful film and personally I feel it is very…
