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 […]
Remember when I wrote Can We Just Admit That Black Adam is a (Soft) Failure? Apparently I’m not the only person to think so because The Wrap has recently reached the same conclusion (you’d have to join WrapPRO to read the full article but the two paragraphs you can read gratis are enough) albeit 11 […]
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Neil Gaiman’s The Sandman has been renewed for a second season! This is really good news because despite appearing to do well, appearing in Netflix’s Top Ten for numerous weeks, the series was supposedly quite expensive and when combined with their famously opaque system of determining whether or not something […]
In 2021 Warner Bros, then run by Jason Kilar, was purchased by Discovery Communications though prior to the deal being finalized a Batgirl film was in development, and recently completed. Originally the plan was that it was going to premiere on HBOMax, though executives were seemingly so impressed with what they were seeing that it […]
Last week the trailer dropped for Black Adam, the latest movie from DC Films and it’s amazing, though not for the reasons you might think. It manages to steal iconic moments from various Marvel movie trailers in such a way that’s so blatant that there’s something pretty remarkable – never mind shameless – about it. […]
When I heard that Robert Patterson would become the latest Batman let’s just say I was underwhelmed (and if you’ve followed Pattinson’s career at all you likely thought the same thing) because he just didn’t fit the character. So why is it that he seems to work so well? I think that it’s because Matt […]
When I saw the Official ‘Early Access Do Not Share’ Trailer for James Gunn’s The Suicide Squad I assumed that it was a clever marketing strategy on the part of Warner Bros, which would fit what I know of James Gunn, personalty-wise. Well, I might have been wrong because according to Superherohype the The Suicide […]
In the name of full disclosure I have to admit that I don’t recall having seen a full episode of DC Universe’s – I mean HBOMax’s – Titans, based on the characters introduced in the Teen Titans comic. Though that’s not because I didn’t try, but because the show is so murky that it doesn’t […]
Earlier this week a trailer was released for James Gunn’s The Suicide Squad, the sequel/soft reboot to David Ayer’s Suicide Squad (2016) and I didn’t like it nearly as much as I thought I would. Part of the problem is Ayer’s movie is often criticized when no one has actually seen it – and you […]
I’m just going to put it out there: I don’t think Zach Snyder can tell a story to save his life, which is all the more interesting since he’s been making a living as a feature-film director (who’s entire job is telling stories) for quite awhile now, after leaving the world of commercials and music […]
