Anything can be sarcastic. Sarcasm is an inflection.

I wanted to make a really racially insensitive joke about people not finding a black/African-American Batman believable ... but I’m fairly sure it’s probably a fact when people couldn’t find a minority Spider-Man believable because apparently there’s only white people here in Queens and absolutely no struggling, nerdy…
And 100% privilege
I will only consider Sally Hawkins and Ken Watanabe wasted if they bring back Quicksilver for Godzilla 2 instead of them. Fuck that guy. Cranston is infallible and his death was contentious. I think with the script structure it was a wise move... but then they cast Kickass to just... not really be phased by his…
Sorry. Once you call Godzilla a failure on all levels we can’t be friends now. Sure Quicksilver was wooden as a tree, but the rest of the movie works fine considering the franchise is 60 years old and has 30 entries and one prior American attempt that was truly a failure on all levels. Edwards Godzilla was more than I…
No shit. Just sarcasm.
Also I just realized you tried to use Minority Report as an example. Which is hilarious.
Always exceptions, but those are also his under performing films. Most of his biggest, most recognizable and profitable films like ET, Jurassic Park and Saving Private Ryan pretty much fit his parent issue hallmarks. In fact two of those are his highest grossing films ever.
Yeah, but I am fascinated by Hollywood’s casual racism and sexism. It’s an entirely different world. Where most of American society, be it business or social settings, at least try to hide it’s favoritism for white males Hollywood wears it on its face like a badge.
The deal though was signed long ago that Fox has the mutants. Granted Marvel/Disney is currently going to great length to phase out any of the X-Men and F4 status quo. With a respective member of each team joining GotG. SG having her mutantcy removed. SW and Quicksilver having it removed/no longer being related to…
I’ma Surfer fanboy so you won’t see me arguing. According to Story in the commentary Surfer was all but nixed from the film in comparison to how much they wanted to use him due to budget constraints put in place by Fox (who were rapidly trying to sweep the F4 stuff under the rug).
You’ve never heard of Tom Rothman or Fox’s production history of super hero movies then.
Indiana Jones was written by George Lucas and Spielberg constantly throws him under the bus about it. But let’s go over it in case you missed the joke about the strong thematic elements of children being reunited with parents in a Spielberg flick.
If you’ve been a long time Hollywood/movie nerd like me you just read the most ridiculous stories concerning Fox trying to torpedo their own movies. Especially between Singer and Tom Rothman on X1. Obv by the time X-Men The Last Stand came around he left because they couldn’t pay him enough to deal with their bullshit…
Yeah, but how many times can we watch Spielberg direct a film about kids getting back to their family (which literally everything he’s done since Jaws) before we give someone else a shot?
Actually he more or less has the exact same career path as Gareth Edwards who went from low budget sci-fi (Monsters), to big budget sci-fi (Godzilla), to the biggest budget sci-fi (Star Wars: Rogue One). Since Trank just had “creative differences” with Disney on the Star Wars movie he was attached to so you’re seeing…
After hearing how Fox gave Tim Story so much shit for wanting to make his Fantastic Four movies more accurate to comic and how much Tom Rothman (then head of Fox, now Sony) HATED producing comic book movies (particularly X-Men) I do kind of have to take Trank’s words as containing some truth. Fox fucking hates making…
Not gonna lie I’ve watched the Rise of The Silver Surfer with director commentary from Tim Story a couple times. Fox didn’t understand any of his fucking ideas 8 years ago from what I recall and constantly dashed his ideas. Granted a lot of the ideas involved that movie being split into two with Galactus being the…
The top 3 on the list should be all 3 Raimi spider-man movies
Basically Spider-Man 2 boils down to more or less being a remake of the last 20 minutes or so of Raimi’s first Spider-Man. Right away we have villain with no discernible qualities outside of being a scientist who likes Peter and through an unfortunate accident involving mind controlling tentacles becomes bent on doing…
