I must have missed her completely. Looking her up now, it was a pretty forgettable use of the character. Oh well. I still think Mr Bones might work down the line.

Favourite Cate Blanchett performances? I really really loved her in Blue Jasmine. She's a delight in The Aviator. I'm Not There was pretty great. The only kind of average performance I've seen her give was that sequel to the Queen Elizabeth movie. Even then, only because that whole movie was kind of a boring mess that…
I like to pretend Batman is constantly hiding, just out of shot, in every scene of Supergirl. He's Batman afterall. He could hide from literally anyone.
Oh man, it really would be amazing to see Mr Bones show up. No idea how or if he'd work in live action, but it would be so cool to see them try that. At the very least, I'd love for them to eventually introduce Cameron Chase into the show. (The whole concept of the DEO was created purely for her short lived comic…
Give Keanu a role where he's some detached zen master of awesome and he'll blast it out of the park. Require him to emote and…he's not bad, but not really good. Leto as an actor is like a hungry wolf. He'll try to tear out every morsel of "ACTING!!!!" but he always comes off as just being ridiculous. He had the…
"That's not how the force works!!!"
The show did amazingly well to cope with the passing of Christopher Evan Welch but I do really miss Peter Gregory. I rewatch a lot of the season 1 episodes almost purely for every weird little tic Peter has. Laurie has been a fine replacement but she never really feels as distinctly bizarre and brilliant like Peter.
I'm dangerously optomistic about this one. The action looks great, the visuals look lovely and Snyder's input is minimized. Patty Jenkins has been capable of greatness in the past and Pine looks like he's having fun. The only question mark is Gal Gadot. She certainly LOOKS the part. I thought she was good in BvS but…
But they finally confirmed that obscure villain Dr Poison is a thing. Credit to them if ominous Danny Huston proves to just be total misdirection from the read big bad.
The Prestige is such an underrated gem. It's plot goes a little zany at the end, but the thematic stuff spread throughout makes it all work. Plus the reveal with Bale's character really holds up brilliantly well on repeat viewings.
At the end of the movie Winston Churchill recurits Tom Hardy into the "British Crime Fighting Squad". Then at christmas they do a standalone Churchill movie to set up the next adventure. Eventually all the British legends team up in a time machine to fight Hitler (but that movie isn't dated until 2023).
I'd watch a movie starring 5 different versions of Tom Hardy. We got that British gangster movie where he played twins. He could totally play 5 different guys in WW2. It could be like Peter Sellers in Dr Strangelove.
Considering that inland empire encapsulated everything great and less great about his huge and wonderful career, it's a fitting movie to end on. Twin Peaks is just a wonderful well deserved epilogue to his career. We'll still have zany Lynch stuff hopefully but if he doesn't want to or can no longer helm feature…
I'm pretty sure John Carter killed Stanton's live action career. I'm sure Finding Dory was more of a consolation prize compared to the money and power that would come from live action movie directing.
I once saw an entertaining and wondefully fun Marvel TV show about people with super powers. It was Legion and it was a blast from start to finish. Will inhumans be like that? No? Then I'll see myself out.
Hopefully they can lure him back. His sunny, downright entertaining Kong was a damn sight more appealing than the grim and incredibly boring Godzilla.
If they make them like Kong Skull Island (knowingly dumb, tightly made and with lots of beloved character actors in fun roles) then they could do far worse. It feels like a lot of giant monster movies, but they'll all have a two year gap between them. We could do far worse than to have enjoyable giant monster movies…
Our ultimate goal is to steal every movie. We do get a lot but Vancouver is always lurking. Plus New Zealand is always luring big projects in. My Australian pride is higher for Aquaman seeing as how James Wan is also from here. The Australian financing board hilariously turned down his little horror movie idea way…
I find myself cutting Josh Gad some slack lately. Mostly because the poor guy was cast in Beauty and the Beast almost purely because he slightly resembles one of the ugliest cartoon characters ever. "Hey you know who might be great to play that ugly sycophantic loser Le Fou? Josh Gad! Yeah they look kind of similar…
The Aquaman movie will be the greatest cinematic accomplishment in all of human history. I'm not saying that as a DC fan but rather as a jolly Australian who loves that a fellow Australian filmmaker is shooting this movie in my home country and is thus helping my local industry. So you heard it here first from a 100%…
