Hey, it was a TV movie, but don’t forget Generation X.

Yeah, it’s entirely possible that Lord & Miller don’t have the management or personality abilities to be in charge of a movie division, or maybe the Sony structure isn’t built to accommodate them. But they definitely get the character and world in a way that nobody working on the live action side seems to.
Thing is, the problem isn’t really with the script or the direction. It’s with the editing - both Venom and Morbius were clearly shredded to ribbons in the editing room, leaving huge structural holes in the movies. The second Venom movie wasn’t as bad on that front, but it seems to be the exception that proves the rule…
Catwoman? Or maybe Elektra - at least people remember Catwoman.
I’m certainly curious. While my initial thought was graft, but the truth may be that on this show VFX houses were actually billing/charging what they should be and not bending over backwards.
But on the other hand $25m PER EPISODE?! Maybe Megan Thee Stallion was a pricier cameo than realized. Or crafty for an 8 foot…
I think Young Avengers was always doomed just cause of how long it takes them to make suff. They would have had to introduce the characters as like twelve year olds for it to work.
An adult animated show about a super hero attorney at law? That would never work!
How in the hell did they manage to spend $25M per 30-38 minute episode? I get CGI isn’t cheap but it’s not like it was non-stop major action CGI fights. The fact that it cost more than GoT episodes that are 50-80 minutes and require extensive historical sets, wardrobes for entire simulated villages/cities and were…
That’s a shame, it was pretty fun and I really enjoyed that it was a different style to everything else MCU
Weird tonal double bill, sure, but timeline-wise probably tracks. We have it from Gunn that GOTG Vol. 2 is only about six months after the first one which I’m pretty sure is specifically mentioned as taking place in 2014. Then I Am Groot has to be right after it. Daredevil is pretty much set when it came out in early…
There was an entire episode devoted to Margaret’s illness and death and a flashback to VE Day, with Claire Foy, showing a maybe 16 year old Elizabeth out with Margaret, showing how close they were. It was lovely and I was tearing up quite a bit.
Andrew still smarting from the sick burn of Charles calling him a fringe member of the royal family.
On that last bit, her address to the nation as Covid was ramping up could have been an interesting note to hit, in the vein of her father’s famous speech. And there certainly would have been interesting material to explore regarding Harry and Megan, although I’m fine with not attempting to dramatize such very recent…
Remember when the first two seasons crafted such a dynamic relationship between the sisters? Remember when Margaret had storylines? I haven’t watched yet, does Margaret’s death in 2001 even get a mention?
This says something probably not great about me, but when the news about Harry just up and leaving for America broke, my first thought was “this is where The Crown should end”.
“And while The Crown does take care to reveal how Machiavellian Carole Middleton (Eve Best) was in plotting her daughter’s proximity to the future King of England—Kate calls her worse than Mrs. Bennet—it never really examines the problematic nature of her manipulations.”
I think you’re either misreading or referring to something else when you link to that Reddit thread of Reylos.
I like the implication that the Reylo community is small enough that they can immediately identify fake stans.
And after the complete misses that were Love & Thunder, Eternals, Secret Invasion, Moon Knight (my god I tried my best to pretend I enjoyed that), She-Hulk (when are we going to admit that that shit just was not funny, like, at all?)
He’s great in Dune, and the movie is very good. Who would you have cast as Paul? He’s kind of a whiny punk ala Luke Skywalker and I think Chalamet fits the bill.
