On the note of shockingly thoughtful surprises, The Lego Movie was a February “dump”, too!

The February wasteland isn’t what it used to be. Recent February releases from the past couple of years: Get Out, John Wick: Chapter Two, and Deadpool. Black Panther is coming out the weekend before this. I don’t really think of February as a dump month any more.

When I heard they were making this into a movie I also thought it was too weird, intellectual, complicated, and challenging for Hollywood. I was happy Garland was doing it because Ex Machina was all those things and was great. Now the studio seems to have realized that they bit off more than they could chew, they

Hard to tell if you’re making a joke or are an idiot.

“that’s just going to keep cranking out the same type of ok/average/mediocre cookie cutter entertainment.”

If anyone can make that work, it’s Taika.

Poor little thing. Didn’t she get the memo? She works for the mouse now.

Played by Keira Knightly...

I wish they would just recast someone else as Jane Foster and maintain Thor’s relationship with her, it just seems like a disappointing waste of story potential to drop her character entirely and (I think) would be far more interesting if done right then trying to match Thor up with some other Marvel character.

She especially does not want to be locked into the initial contract. They specifically hired talented young people with no background to keep costs low over the first trilogy. Once that runs out, it’s fairly typical for people to say they’re walking away as a preamble for renegotiating their deal.

What, you thought the Trickster was just a part on a TV show?

Hey, if I make two or three pictures, and make millions of dollars doing so, and people always associate me with that role, I’d be over the moon and fucking lucky.

In other news, Natalie Portman came out in support of Daisy Ridley. She went as far to suggest that Ridley should just sleepwalk through the role if she wanted her character to be written out of future installments in the series.

Can’t say I blame her. No actor wants to be typecast.

What if I use my paper money to roll one of those legal marijuana cigarettes? is it still worthless then? Lets see your bitcoin do that.
