My dude, if Reddit mattered, Warcraft would’ve been the biggest movie of 2016.

Pretty sure it failed because it was a bad idea with a lot of very public production issues that didn’t even get a trailer until 3 months before release but maybe it’s the other thing, sure.

Season 1 of The Good Place is a master class in this. It should be shown to TV writers as a textbook case of doing this sort of thing correctly.

It’s also insanely ahistorical to the point that why bother? The only language that they can plausibly put this movie in is PIE, which isn’t even a language so much as a collection of sounds that we have reconstructed to be the roots of a bunch of other words.

There are 5 sequels to The Thin Man, while Dashiell Hammett didn’t write a single sequel to his book.

There are 9 Pink Panther/Inspector Clouseau movies before we even get to the Steve Martin remake.

Universal managed to make 6 friggin’ sequels to Frankenstein, 3 of which are sequels to The Wolf Man, and two of those…

Lord knows Spock’s never had any other previously completely unmentioned siblings show up out of the blue.

I’m fine with Discovery AND The Orville and think they both have their flaws and strengths and complement each other well but goddamn, screw Seth MacFarlane.

I agree with you, but I think Burnham’s relationship with Sarek actually ended up being a low-key highlight of the first season. The reveal that he derailed her career in favor of Spock, who would go on to reject his father, is some grade A dramatic irony. Also, I really like the concept of a human raised in an alien…

I don’t hate this

Pretty bummed they didn’t just get Zachary Quinto. I understand there might be some weird legal thing there between Paramount and CBS but still, he’s done a great job. The entire Kelvin-verse cast has been stellar, TBH, even when the movies aren’t.

I think Lois Lane is a really hard character to nail the casting for, maybe one of the hardest in comics. I don’t think any of the cinematic Loises, even the late Margot Kidder, were great despite them being good actresses (and Kate Bosworth). I feel like so much of her personality is pulled from a very pre-WW2 idea…

Yeah, it’s a perfectly fine concept for a show that was generally really poorly executed in the cheesiest of 90s ways. Try again. Why not. The original BSG was also a pretty cool idea done extra 70s campy and RDM executed the idea way better, the ending notwithstanding. That’s what reboots *should* do.

33/2+7= 23. Right on the cusp of creepy but not in it, so that’s fine.

So both hands support his statement?

That sounds super against union rules.

The Last Battle is pretty on the nose, even relative to the rest of the books.

Yeah, organic was more suited for what Raimi was trying to do. I never really agreed with the hate for it. Similarly, the MCU’s more tech-centric Spidey works better for this universe and story, where he’s just a kid playing in a world of things far bigger and more dangerous than he can handle. Putting Tony in…

I don’t think he meant to imply Idris is not in shape, just that he should be at the time to play Bond.

Sony. Slow your roll and maybe let’s see how Venom does, yeah?

Yeah, if Tom Cruise can play Jack Reacher, a character whose most notable physical trait is that he’s 6'5, then people probably have a different reason to whine about this casting.
