Re: RDJ back in the MCU...as Doctor Doom?!

The whole franchise turned into this seed-planting Disney thing the second they turned it over to them. When we rewatched the run up to ENDGAME with Theo you could see it -- once Disney's executives started giving "input" the movies became cluttered ads as much interested in pushing the N...

Re: RDJ back in the MCU...as Doctor Doom?!

I still get roasted by sycophant fanboys when I say that Marvel should have stayed at Paramount. Paramount (and Universal for The Incredible Hulk ) MCU remains the only horny MCU. Now we have acres of hot people who never want to bang. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FwdQo3stqrs https://www.youtube...

Re: JOYRIDE (1977) - Andy's Blu-Ray Review

The secret to Anne's appeal (with me at least) is her iconic performance as Sheba on "Battlestar Galactica" where she was the first female character in TV sci-fi who was a total equal to the male warriors in her own right and who did it without sacrificing any of her femininity in the pro...

You know what fans really want? The OT in the completely-unaltered theatrical cuts restored in 4K quality.

Just sayin'.

It's gonna take all of the actors from worn-out franchises from the late 70s through the mid-90s being dead before we're finally purged of the "requel" crap, and even then studios will just deepfake dead actors to keep them going a little while longer. :? https://www.piratesandprincesses.n...

Re: ALIEN: ROMULUS - August - Fede Alvarez, Star-Free Cast - Trailer

Again, I'll never forgive Ridley Scott for pushing his way back into this series, making it "his" franchise again, and canceling the one sequel the fans overwhelmingly wanted to see -- Blomklamp's ALIENS sequel that was going to bring back Sigourney and throw ALIEN3 out the window, bring ...

Re: ALIEN: ROMULUS - August - Fede Alvarez, Star-Free Cast - Trailer

Sequels have the potential to be original and compelling ( Bond is proof of that), but why must movies these days forever repurpose stale tropes? Audiences are coming to see the brand, not (necessarily) the same story. There's a moment where a character delivers one of the most memorable lines from...
