Wait, what?

Ah, that’s a good point.

Iron Man 2 wasn’t great; neither was Thor 2. They both got a 3rd. It’s a different studio of course, but still. One bad movie is enough to kill a series for a very popular character? That seems shortsighted to me (unless it just means they’re going to commission a new script).

Sure. But it still made almost $170 million despite being released in Dec 2020. That seems decent. RT score also seems fine (same as Aquaman). If the first was good and the character is generally well-regarded, then I just find it hard to believe people wouldn’t show up for a third.

Her “not-dead brother” was great.

That’s surprising. I thought Wonder Woman was the character that people liked most from the recent spate of DC movies.

Thaaat’s a really good point. I never thought about it before, but you’re totally right. Someone (Tom Cruise) should tell Christopher McQuarrie to get on a Fenster movie.

I probably would have enjoyed it more if it had just been a movie about Benicio del Toro’s character. That was the only segment I kind of liked.

I think of In Bruges as a Christmas movie. I’m pretty sure it isn’t, but I’m also pretty sure it’s like a fairytale.

Those movies are also both great visually. Matthew Libatique definitely deserves credit for that too. I think Requiem in particular was very influential in modern cinematography and editing. And that style was evident to a lesser extent in Pi. I don’t think anything he’s done since those early films has been as good,…

Pan’s Labyrinth isn’t good.*

From Maelstrom to Frozen was 20 months. This is apparently going to be less than a year. Maelstrom was a much smaller ride than Splash. Splash is a also ride that breaks down regularly so a reskin doesn’t seem sufficient in my opinion. I hope I’m wrong, though.

I don’t think you can divorce the movie’s lack of success from the controversy surrounding Parker. That movie was being talked about like crazy after Sundance. And then Parker’s past came out and then that was being talked about.

It’s closing in January and reopening by the end of the same year? That doesn’t give me much hope for the level of detail they’re going to put into the new attraction. The current one already has maintenance issues that could use attention. I loathe Disney’s long construction timelines, but a cheap retheming certainly…

Yeah, I wondered the same thing. I googled the image and it wasn’t quite what I was expecting. One could surmise it’s saying that Jewish people are the new Nazis? Or from the opposite end, that the Jews “won” in the end and are overtaking the Nazis? If West says he loves both grou, then I’m guessing it’s intended to…

It felt like they ran out of things to say pretty quickly.

I believe it’s FivedianaJone5

The old list was better.

I finally watched Sátántangó a couple years ago. In the Mood For Love felt longer.

Based on the features he’s penned for this site, Schimkowitz seems able to write seriously. But apparently he just chooses not to most of the time. It’s kind of sad. I can’t say the same for Barsanti; that dude only has one level.
