I just saw the trailer for the new Scooby Doo movie. It’s not just a Scooby movie but it’s apparently introducing a Hannah-Barbera cinematic universe. The trailer featured Blue Falcon and Dick Dastardly.

They've combined all that stuff together for years in the cartoons.

Young Freud posted:Doesn't Blade hang around with him? Blade tries to kill him a whole bunch and he tries to kill Blade as much. I think both of them manage it at least once but Blade survives because he's actually immune to vampire bites (his only real superpower in the comic version) and Dracula just comes back to life later because he's Dracula. In the comics Blade is also British and lives in London with his girlfriend a showgirl called Safron and dresses like this:  Because it's the 70s. If anyone hasn't seen the really cheesy anime based on the comics it's all up on Youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4F0CqGOONrw is this  ? I'll edit it out if it is.

There was also recently an animated movie about Mystery Inc being invited by Batman to join the Gotham detectives club. The Brave and the Bold version of Batman, to be exact, who is a perfect match. They work together shockingly well, partly because Batman is the only one who recognises that Scooby-Doo is a dog who happens to be smart enough to speak and understand English.

I'm amused by Scooby Doo cover art when it doesn't include the cast outside of Scooby/Shaggy or sticks them way in the background.

So, if the initial predictions come to pass, this will be the lowest grossing weekend total for the entire theatrical box office since September 11-13, 1998 (that is not a typo, i do not mean 2001, the weekend after 9/11 still grossed more than this weekend). For reference, this is what the box office looked like that weekend:

How wrong I am. But, let's face it, the Blade aesthetic set the tone for the '90s comic book movies like the Singer X-Men movies.

There's a sort of irony in that it may be the safest time to go see a movie because no one else is likely to be there (this is mostly a joke)

Rageaholic posted:Yikes. I read an article earlier that said the film industry stands to lose $20 billion because of coronavirus, and I guess that's accurate if we're already doing worse than 9/11 weekend. I mean, this is just phase one. There are basically no movies coming out now, and the movies that are supposed to come out now will probably not get the same money they would have had they come out without a giant pandemic and then all of the stuff currently in production is shut down. and that's not just like, LA, that's everywhere, from LA to Vancouver to Atlanta to New York to China.

The coronavirus may not end up killing that many people compared to other pandemics, but it'll do a number on the economy for sure.
