James Cameron’s Avatar: The Way of Water is projected to earn somewhere between $118 and $128 million in China over the weekend, which is pretty impressive. Which is a pretty stellar opening, no doubt but – and it’s a really impressive ‘but’ – the movie is believed to cost somewhere in the ballpark of $350-$400 […]
According to Comicbookmovie.com, James Gunn and Peter Safran’s goal is to wipe the slate clean as far as prior interpretations of DC characters in the live action space goes. And I believe that’s a likely, and more importantly, necessary step to take (and have argued it should have been taken place long before now) but […]
I don’t subscribe to Disney+ though I do have a Hullu subscription (both are owned by The Walt Disney Company) and for a limited time they made available two episodes of Andor, which I watched. I can’t say that I enjoyed it, mainly because whatever it was, it wasn’t Star Wars. Star Wars movies are […]
According to The Hollywood Reporter, James Gunn is writing a Superman treatment sans Henry Cavill, which sounds to me like a bit of an unforced error. Supposedly the story will revolve around a younger Superman who’s already a reporter for The Daily Planet. I don’t think it’s a great move because Cavill has been treated […]
This post contains spoilers to Netflix’s Travelers. If you haven’t seen it, despite it being ten years old as of the writing of this post, stop reading and go watch it because it’s pretty good 001 wasn’t a terrible episode of Travelers, though I think it’s the weakest of the first two seasons (it was […]
What the newly minted DCU (what I assume means ‘DC Universe’ as opposed to formerly the DCEU – the DC Cinematic Universe) does not need is drama, but that’s what’s happening. The trades recently reported that Patty Jenkins sank Wonder Woman 3 due to an unwillingness to change her screenplay, based on studio notes. Today […]
I enjoy Netflix for the most part though I just wish they’d stop trying to adapt anime into live-action because – at least so far – they don’t do it particularly well. Remember 2017’s Death Note? You probably don’t and I can’t blame you. What about 2021’s Cowboy Bebop? By my reckoning it was better […]
Marvel Studios’ Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is likely to finish its theatrical run somewhere in the ballpark of $800-850 million, which is pretty damn good, though I’m reasonably sure there will be someone who’ll says ‘Black Panther: Wakanda‘ Forever underperformed compared to the first movie.’ And by looking strictly at the numbers, that’s – fairly […]
According to The Hollywood Reporter, James Gunn and Peter Safran have completed their work on a new bible for the DC Studios – did they really need to go to Aspen to hammer things out though? It always bugs me when companies lay off people, which Warner Bros and it’s various divisions have been doing […]
Marvel Studios’ Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is closing in on the $750 million mark ($733,024,077) at the worldwide box office though whether or not it hits a billion has a lot to do when Avatar: The Way of Water comes out. And that’s December 12 – today is December 4 – which means Wakanda Forever […]
