Lloyd Kaufman’s next movie is an adaptation of Shakespeare’s the Tempest. The last time he tackled the bard, we were blessed with Tromeo & Juliet, probably one of the greatest pieces of cinema ever created. To say I’m excited for this is an understatement.

Both of these trailers are ridiculously :nws:

lol if you don’t think Disney’s going to announce at least a half dozen Star Wars related projects throughout the year.

Also, way to complain and continue the conversation in the same breath. That’s not hypocritical at all, no siree.

The score for mother! was fantastic in its minimalism. I still want to hear the original piece that Johann Johansson wrote, but what we got in the film was a brilliantly raw version that Johansson bravely striped down to its essentials.

Why? By all accounts he's a pretty terrible human being.

I know he’s bipolar and had really bad drug problems (like, having a manic breakdown and running through the streets naked with a gun bad), and he and Tisha Campbell had a falling out and went to court over sexual harassment issues on set, but according to Tisha herself, they resolved their personal issues and from the sounds of it, he’s getting the help he needs.

I’m not going to say he’s 100% back on track because I don’t know the dude personally, but if he’s doing right by his people and making the amends that he needs to, then hell yeah I want to see Martin get his recognition. That show was a huge part of my adolescence, I just wish Tommy was still around so he can catch some of the shine.

The problem with that are the notable and recent original, lady action films that failed-to-launch. E.g. Atomic Blonde and Proud Mary.

Not saying that I wouldn't love to see more movies about distinctly kickass women, driven by a distinctly female vision. But good luck getting Hollywood to look past both of those examples.

It really sucks because Atomic Blonde and Proud Mary were great and they just fell straight off the map. Widows should have been an oscar nominated movie, but because it’s about Liam Neeson and Jon Berenthal’s widows and not another paint-by-numbers heist movie, the old farts in the academy didn’t give a poo poo.

I miss the Honey I Shrunk The Kids TV show which I remembered as being quite insane. One episode had Wayne and his family travelling back in time to the Old West for a vacation and end up helping a friendly alien who eats with his butt. Another episode had them discovering a huge asteroid that is heading for Earth and when they teleported to its surface, they discover a community of humans who based their culture on Star Wars and is under attack by a giant spider. Also I remember them making the mom in the TV series hotter than in the movie.

That’s funny because I always thought the mom in the movies was way too hot for Wayne. I had no idea the actress passed away in 2014 from breast cancer. :smith:

If Disney does bring back that franchise, I hope Stuart Gordon gets a huge payday from it. I love the fact that the guy who made Re-Animator and From Beyond also made Honey I Shrunk The Kids.

Hundreds of years from now isn’t that far off considering what we know of civilizations and societies hundreds of years prior to now, the only way Smith’s scenario were to happen is if there was a massive event that caused millions of people in the first world civilizations to die off and the internet to disappear. The survivors would have to rebuild from the remnants and go to like, the Avengers Endgame Novelization because there would be no way to watch those movies on their obsolete medium.

I didn't understand any of that, but don't worry about it.

Did Thanos try to pick up Thor's hammer with that pimp glove?

Erik Larsen introduced a version of Thor in his comic, Savage Dragon, that has a Mjolinir that can only be picked up with a certain glove.



Picking it up without leads to fatal results.
