According to Comicbookmovie.com, Warner Bros/New Line’s Black Adam will soon cross the $100 million mark in the United States, bringing its box office worldwide to almost $167 million ($166,839,000). And that’s a lot of money, until you take into account two things. The first is that the movie had a 63% drop-off in its second […]
I’ve gotta admit that I didn’t see this coming. James Gunn and Peter Safran – Gunn handling the creative end, while Safran takes care of the business side of things – isn’t something that I expected to see. Now comes the question: Which James Gunn will DC Studios, formerly DC Films, get? Will it be […]
No, that isn’t a typo. According to Walter Hill, the director of the 1979 epic – that may sound hyperbolic but I indeed consider The Warriors to be an epic – he planned to have a gay gang, the Dingos, in the movie. According to the report in The Hollywood Reporter, they actually made it […]
Warner Bros/New Line’s Black Adam dropped Friday in the United States, opening with a $26.8 million haul, not too shabby considering a projected $62.2 opening weekend. Now here’s the problem. Most superhero movies have a second week drop-off – let’s roll with that $62.2 million weekend opening estimate (at the end of the day actual […]
Remember when I wrote that Walter Hamada wasn’t long for the head of DC Films last September? I was right because while I didn’t name the circumstances under which he would leave the post, leave it he did and from the outside looking in it’s fairly obviously why: He had no idea what he was […]
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Bassam Tariq is no longer helming Marvel Studios’ reboot of Blade. Interestingly, an actual reason was given him leaving the project (a scheduling conflict, which likely had to do with meeting the November 23, 2023 release date, as opposed to the virtually meaningless ‘creative differences’). Though one sign that Tariq […]
When I woke up this morning one of the first things I read was a story on Buzzfeed about the racism Caleb McLaughlin (Stranger Things) was encountering from the series’ fandom and while none of that should have been a surprise – he’s a darker-skinned male in the United States, racism/sexism/nativism/whatever -ism you want – […]
In case you’re wondering, David Zaslav is still looking for someone to act as the ‘Kevin Feige’ for DC Films and apparently it isn’t going to be Walter Hamada (and based on his tenure thus far that’ should be fairly obvious’s probably a wise decision). My question is why aren’t they looking for someone who’s […]
As you’re probably aware, Netlfix’s has already canceled Resident Evil after a single season. And that really cheeses me off because Sony somehow managed to keep making Resident Evil movies even when every movie after the first sucked (now that I think about it even the first wasn’t that great though it was at least […]
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 […]
