I mean the financial difficulties the company has faced at the corporate level. They’ve got a ton of debt and have been looking for someone to buy them for quite awhile. Their merger with Skydance is currently pending. Skydance has indicated they are mostly interested in Paramount Pictures rather than CBS or…

The studio has basically said it needs to get acquired in order to continue existing, no?

I’m trying to be optimistic about this new Captain America movie, but things aren’t looking good. They have been filming this movie since March of 2023, and in June of 2024 they’re still making major casting announcements. Last week they announced that Giancarlo Esposito would be joining the cast as one of the movie’s…

According to the BBC, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms: The Hedge Knight will film in Belfast, Ireland.

Captain Planet:

He uses the words ‘sort of’ so much in that quote that it sounds like he doesn’t even believe it himself at this point.

I know right? Like, if he wants to keep spending money on this pre-production churn, well, fine, but at some point Giz/other media needs to stop treating it like serious news.

It’s really cute the way McFarlane thinks Spawn will ever get made.

Does Matt Tolmach do stand-up? Because he’s a fantastic comedian. Come on, people going to see Kraven over and over during the holidays? That’s absolutely hilarious.

Kraven... does not look good. The character has so much cinematic potential as a Spider-man villain. We just want a movie where Kraven, a huge, scary, Russian big-game hunter, chases Peter Parker across Manhattan.

That was a real reflection of how the studio felt about the movie. We’re really excited. But that’s a great move that reflects just the…

I’ll take Geralt of Rivera over his evil cousin Geraldo of Rivera any day

That’s what I figured, too.

Got any actual data on that?

This is bad enough to have me cancel my HBO account. Whoever made the call on this deserves to be trapped in a room with Sam Altman for 100 years.

If I hadn’t been looking for something animated to scratch a sci-fi itch around 2 months or so ago I doubt i’d know it exists. Not sure if it was promoted at all.

Thank you, yes. It was an excellent show, but doesn’t really need another season. It reaches a pretty coherent endpoint and I don’t know that I need its lingering questions answered.

What fools, that series is pure gold.. fascinating world they portray..

I’d watch more of the same kind of stuff but I agree, the show felt complete as it was.

Scavenger’s Reign was great, but it also feels very complete as is.
