If you describe your own actions as taking “courage,” you better have, like, saved children from a burning building.  

We don’t have any real benefit from it

It’s snarky as fuck, but not enough for me to feel an iota of sympathy for this disingenuous POS.

The best most accurate description of Snyder and his approach to comic book movies I ever read was that he’s one of those guys that only looks at the art on the covers and splash pages and never reads the actual text.

This proves that the biggest misstep in their whole plan was hiring Snyder. The guy loves grimdark too much to consider doing anything else.

lmao so now you’ve disabled comments on certain articles like the “future of video game movies” one? haha jesus christ

Oh, I am interested in a bit of explanation.

which is about a real estate agent who goes back to her small hometown and falls in love with a rancher at—get this—Christmas time.

8/9ths of a perfect series. They couldn’t stick the landing (or, when I’m feeling uncharitable, they chickened out), but who can these days? Vince Gilligan and that’s about it. I might have to hint to my s.o. that I want this.

Yeah ok whatever, I wanna know what HUNTER Fieri’s contract looks like

He’s going to marry (and divorce) Jane Fonda?

Unfortunately, yes. Unless you’re watching Toon In With Me on MeTV, who I understand is still trying to gain access to the rest of Warners cartoon catalog.

I’ve said it before, but I like saying it, so I’ll say it again: Zaslav really needs to be kicked in the dick multiple times. 

Elmer Fudd couldn’t kill da wabbit and he’s been trying for over 8o years. But Zaslav . . .

Good point! The Russo’s are an interesting case. I don’t know if you can argue that Marvel wasted years of their lives, and they’ve been given opportunities to work on multiple big projects with no existing IP attached. For example, their project for Amazon had an enormous price tag. I’m not sure they have anyone to

the russo’s themselves are even a great example. they were an interesting choice and had done good work on tv, obviously elevated the mcu, and everything they’ve made since has been the worst stuff of their career.

Just given his sense of humor... I think I can give him the benefit of the doubt that that was pretty tongue in cheek?

Marvel’s habit of poaching talented young writer-directors for their films has gone from something largely positive (cultivating diverse up-and-coming artists) to something seen as negative (wasting years of the lives of potential new auteurs on paint-by-the-numbers franchise filmmaking).

It wasn’t on my plan for my career as an auteur.

Wish debuting with under $20M in third place?
