Given that the first two movies both suffered delays without a strike, I’m pretty sure this would have happened to the third as well. Across the Spider-Verse was pushed back 13 months from its original release date, and by all accounts Beyond’s animation is even more complex.

This makes Elon look much cooler than he deserves, honestly.

To be fair, I also have $8,000 AND my dignity.

But then you won’t be able to rewatch stuff like Willow...oh, right.

there were a fair number of writers and actors who welcomed Netflix’s upfront payments in lieu of residual payouts initially

They could call it “Star Conflict.”

I’m kind of surprised this wasn’t sent straight to Disney Plus.

They released the highest-grossing film of the summer, Guardians of the Galaxy 3, which has made eight times more than Sound of Freedom. Their only real flop this year was Indiana Jones, and even that mess is on track to end up with around $400 million.

This isn’t a ticket giveaway. This is a movie encouraging people to buy more tickets for a movie they’ve already seen, to either give to family members or to “send a message.”

Listen here, you:

And his most recent movie is currently underperforming in theaters so maybe he’s not the movie messiah people say he is and we can take a break from the endless thinkpieces about him?

Superior Spidey was great. I loved how he used traditional villain methods to do heroic stuff, I loved how over-the-top seriously he took himself, and I loved how he left all the other heroes going “What the hell is wrong with Peter lately?”

Be-urrrrp, behold, Morty! The ultimate pog!

Pet Rocks, I Can Has Cheezeburger, and Where’s the Beef all have Wikipedia articles.

That’s not selfish, it’s a beautiful dream which will benefit all mankind.
