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 […]
While I enjoyed 2016’s Doctor Strange I wish that it had been…well…weirder. And to be fair there was quite a burden on director Scott Derrickson’s shoulders, namely now to introduce a character that’s amongst the weirdest in Marvel’s stable, but do so in a manner that doesn’t turn off people who’re grown accustomed to their […]
Yesterday we learned that Sam Raimi was in the running to take over Doctor Strange In The Multiverse of Madness from Scott Derrickson, who left the production due to ‘creative differences (a phrase that’s almost meaningless in that it could refer to virtually anything).’ Today The Hollywood Reporter revealed that Michael Waldron would be working […]
This is amazing news! According to The Hollywood Reporter, Sam Raimi is in talks to take over Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness from Scott Derrickson, who stepped down earlier this year due to ‘creative differences.’ Now, I don’t think that Derrickson got to show what he could bring to the franchise with the […]
Mainly because I think I have a good idea of what Marvel Studios is looking for. While Scott Derrickson is leaving the project, he’s staying on as Executive Producer, which implies an amicable parting with Marvel. Now, the title ‘Executive Producer’ is potentially as meaningless as “creative differences” but assuming that relations between the director […]
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Scott Derrickson has left Marvel Studios’ upcoming Doctor Strange In The Multiverse Of Madness. The article sites “creative differences (essentially a meaningless term)” and while it seems that that the parting was amicable (Derrickson remains as executive producer), something tells me that the reason for his leaving was his intention […]
Marvel Studios was at San Diego Comic Con, and they previewed their upcoming Phase 4 slate of movies and television shows (which is interesting because as I understand it what Marvel Studios is doing on television is divorced from what Marvel Television is doing, which seems to me to be a problem, namely why have […]
A few days ago Kevin Feige confirmed that there would be a Doctor Strange sequel, which must have been a comfort to the people too clueless to not know better. The original movie earned almost $678 million–on a budget of $165 million–so if there weren’t a sequel it certainly wouldn’t be because it wasn’t profitable.Then […]
“Visually, Marvel’s Doctor Strange is unlike any movie you’ve probably seen.” And that’s not hyperbole. Some of the visual effects in Scott Derrickson’s Doctor Strange may have had their genesis in other movies–such as Inception–but he takes them to places that you have never seen before. Green screen is also nothing new, but the way […]
Comicbook.com posted an international trailer for Scott Derrickson’s upcoming Doctor Strange, and you can see it here. I haven’t watched it because a movie trailer is a like a single puzzle piece, which when combined with others form a more complete image of what that movie happen to be. The problems start when you assemble those […]
