Even movies that have been getting big ad pushes are blinking, Quiet Place 2 and Lovebirds have both pushed their release dates.

So is like nothing coming out in theaters for months now? If so, that's a huge bummer.

I was excited to see First Cow. I imagine that might come out on VOD fairly soon, at least.

The Hub also had Dan VS (which owned), which was baffling because it was an adult swim-lite type show that aired on a network whose target audience was 8 and under.

Godzilla 98 also had the Puff Daddy/Jimmy Page some Come With Me, which everyone secretly likes.

Speaking of Godzilla 2014, the story writer David Callaham (also writer on Doom 2005, Expendables 1-3, an uncredited rewrite on Ant-Man 1 and two unreleased comic book films, WW84 and Shang-Chi) has been confirmed as the writer for the upcoming Hercules film. Disney has officially greenlit the project, and the Russo brothers will produce, rather than directing.

The choice here seems to point towards a PG-13 rating, following after Mulan (the first PG-13 Disney remake). I feel like a PG-13 'non-stop action' film in the vein of comic book films and The Expendables is a solid fit, though I'm a bit skeptical of just using Disney properties to make additional Marvel-style films. Someone here previously mentioned the Marvel Hercules, who is a phenomenal character, but if Disney is making a PG-13 Russo brother produced Hercules (that isn't the Marvel Hercules), odds are very dim for the Marvel Hercules to ever make more than a token film appearance in the MCU.

A New Hope: Well, we think we found a weakness. It's a long shot. One in a million. We're gonna give it our best shot. It's the only one we have.

Rogue One: I intentionally put a weakness in the Death Star so it could in fact be destroyed with this one neat trick.

Rogue One is so loving bad. BUT IT"S GOT DARTH VADER DOING SOMETHING COOL AT THE END.

It didn’t need to have an intentional flaw. The entire point was that that technological terror with its ability to destroy a planet was small potatoes compared to the power of the force

The whole "Oppressed people intentionally loving up the thing they were forced to help build thing" was done amazingly in Invader Zim. One of the planets that Irk took over got turned into a weapons factory that build invisible giant robots, however the robots had multiple design flaws that still met all the specs. It moves, but it needs to be directly plugged into an outlet and is such a power drain that it barely lasts 5 minutes even on the short leash formed by the outlet and cord, and while the robot turns invisible, the pilot doesn't, just floating there like an idiot.

Do all comedic actors need to have some really hosed-up role to show that they have some range?

In retrospect, I wonder if CGI Tarkin was the reason they resorted to body doubles and unused footage for Carrie Fisher in RoS.

I feel like CGI Leia would have been less creepy than what we actually got, but maybe that's just me.

Are you being sarcastic or do you honestly believe the man behind 13 Hours and an untold number of Pentagon Porn is going to do this?


Its only natural that during quarantine people movie choices closely resembles "stuck in airplane". Hell, I actually had the occasional urge to rewatch Gods of Egypt these last few weeks.

Twins would at least be interesting. This just sounds like The Brothers Grimm.

If satire only reads as satire to people who are already on board with capitalism being a trash fire then I don't know if it's very useful as satire, intentional or unintentional. Like, obv this is an issue all satire has to deal with to some degree, there are people who think starship troopers is an unironic ooh-ra go military film, but I feel like 'the transformers movies are secretly scathing leftist takedowns of the american military-industrial complex' is a take that is pretty much exclusive to this subforum.

e: like does going 'see, optimus prime is totally a sendup of jingoist warmongers' really accomplish anything except make you feel good?
