I find most everything about Zach Snyder’s Justice League frustrating – never mind the trailer being black and white – and to be honest, a little off-putting. First, there’s no such thing as “Zach Snyder’s Justice League” because that’s like saying “Joss Whedon’s Avengers” or “The Russo Brothers’ Civil War.” It places a director above […]
The trailer for Denis Villeneuve’s Dune dropped earlier today and it left me genuinely confused because I’m not quite sure who it’s supposed to appeal to. And it was a great, epic-looking trailer but I still don’t understand why it is that Hollywood feels the need to force movies based on Frank Herbert’s visionary sci-fi […]
Matt Reeves The Batman trailer dropped yesterday at DC’s Fandome and – if I’m being honest – is the only reason that anyone should remotely care about DC’s presentation. It’s an interesting trailer for quite a few reasons – not all of them good – though it works really well overall. First off, it’s accompanied […]
Yesterday the trailer for Zach Snyder’s Justice League – Yes, that’s the title – dropped yesterday as a part of DC’s Fandome event and I have beef with it. For a start, if you take a look at the poster you’ll see that ‘Zach Snyder’ is bigger than ‘Justice League,’ which is problematic for all […]
A few hours ago Matt Reeves, director of the upcoming The Batman, dropped some images of the Batmobile. So, let’s take a closer look… The silhouette is pretty interesting though those massive fender flares aren’t doing it any favors. As you can likely tell, it’s probably based on a Dodge Challenger. That being said, the […]
Comicbook.com just posted a complete image of the Batsuit from Matt Reeves’ upcoming The Batman, and it’s hard to say if it works visually. And that’s because you can’t necessarily tell how well a costume works from spy shots because superhero suits are designed to be depicted in a certain way and in a particular […]
I could not stand 2014’s The Maze Runner because I grew up on Young Adult novels and it felt as if it looked at the subject matter somewhat contemptuously. The Scorch Trials is as irritating, though in a slightly different way. It still looks at the YA genre somewhat contemptuously, but is so weirdly edited […]
The Hollywood Reporter released a video that showed Robert Pattinson in what I think it’s safe to assume is the Batman costume from Matt Reeves’ upcoming movie. I took a screenshot from the video and lightened it and…what I could make out doesn’t look great. It feels very ‘Daredevil,’ not the Netflix series but the […]
Despite initial predictions of an opening somewhere in the ballpark of $50 million for Warner Bros/DC Films’ Birds Of Prey: And The Fantabulous Emancipation Of One Harley Quinn the movie has underwhelmed domestically, earning $33+ million here for a total of just over $81 million worldwide. That opening is not only below estimates, it’s potentially […]
Like assholes, likely everyone has an opinion…as to why Ava DuVernay is directing New Gods for DC Films. What brought this line of inquiry to mind was the a story from Comicbooknews about DuVernay directing a show called DMZ (starring the breathtaking Rosario Dawson). The last big-budget feature she directed was Disney’s A Wrinkle In […]
