Disney needs the money, and the world needs the Fox library rescued from the Disney Vault. It's win/win...!

Re: New JURASSIC WORLD 2025 Sequel

You have to wonder if Universal saw what Edwards did with a thrifty $85 million budget on The Creator and decided to choose him based on that, especially coming off of a flop Fast & Furious sequel that cost a ghastly $340 million. :shock:

Re: BEATLES Movies (Yes, 4!) Coming From Sam Mendes

Wouldn't this be better served as a miniseries?

Anyways, with the success of the Bob Marley movie, I guess we've found our post-superhero genre Hollywood's gonna run into the ground. :P

King is the LAST person I'd trust to critique a movie based on one of his books. He'll always recommend any piece of sh!t so long as the check clears (even that godawful Dark Tower movie).

Re: Madame Web...the latest Sony Spidey Spin-Off Suckfest

Someone's going to have to pay me to sit through this. It's too bad, the concept of this movie -- which is as much about introducing Spider-Woman and those associated characters -- doesn't seem as if it was totally misguided, but the way things have gone, it's no surprise the resulting film is a me...

Madame Web...the latest Sony Spidey Spin-Off Suckfest

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s_76M4c4LTo This was sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo bad . :lol: I realize Sony has to release one of these every few years to keep Spider-Man under their ownership (or else Disney will swoop in like vultures), but this makes Morbius look like Spider-Man 2 . Hell, it may...

Re: Another good "Hang on to you physical media" article

Streaming has its place...for "renting" a movie or show. But if it's good enough to watch a second time, it's worth owning.

Re: Another good "Hang on to you physical media" article

I've been warning about this for at LEAST the last decade. I'll take the "clutter" and "inconvenience" of physical media over having my movies, shows and music edited without my consent to appease the most current cycle of outrage over now "problematic" elements. :?
