Yeah, I don’t really need the X-Men to be part of the MCU, and having Disney even further monopolize the industry has me thinking there’s no real upside for us here.

Good lord. This is really cool for the Marvel universe, but seriously, does Disney need to own everything? I think Fox has botched a lot of the X-Men movies, but at least they’re different. They’re a little rougher around the edges and Deadpool was far from being a “Disney movie.” What happens to the mature movies…
But at the same time, media monopolies are bad...
Although the movie faltered elsewhere, the future designs of this year’s Ghost in the Shell movie were definitely…

Sure, Thor: Ragnarok is a pretty great movie. But who needs fancy lightning special effects and dazzling set design…
I’m not a huge fan of All Access, but I put up with it for Discovery and I’ll definitely keep it for Twilight Zone.
Hey, I’ll be honest—my problem with CBS All-Access has been that it’s basically “ten bucks a month for Star Trek and whatever old reruns we can scrape together”. If they’re going to put enough stuff on there to genuinely justify their fees, I’m less upset, not more.
This morning, after about five clicks over the course of 10 seconds, I cancelled my Netflix membership. The company…
Few movies lend themselves to as broad a visual representation as Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey. There’s…
Now that is a shame. Though when you said “fan favorite” I thought you meant Kat Dennings. Probably won’t see her again now that Portman is out.
Yeah. Also! A present-day tech extrapolation of which I am fond:
I’ve also long been of the opinion that every version of a fictional universe we see in popular media is really only an approximation of a Platonic ideal of that universe that exists only in our imaginations.
I am just gonna assume this is sarcasm I missed....
Stick Nick Cage on any movie poster and it’s a win-win.
In 1996, Lucasfilm ventured on bold step for the then-fledgling world of the Star Wars Expanded Universe: Shadows of…
I noticed you were. I also notice someone countered you with the same argument I did.
Giant-ass starships hovering in the sky like the Goodyear Blimp is just so stupid on so many levels. Never mind the massive amount of power needed to keep the ship in the air or the lack of aerodynamic surfaces. Where’s the strategic advantage of floating a thousand or so feet off the ground versus being up in orbit?…
Sure, companies rebrand all the time, but those Horus wings are so dang cool.
while i agree with you on the EU stuff, i actually loved Rogue One, and its not like someone who didnt love star wars came up with it, it was from John Knoll, who is the Visual Effects Supervisor and COO at ILM, (and also created Photoshop) who pitched the story to Kathleen Kennedy and it got greenlit, so I mean, he…
