    A black person was attached to the project. Hogwarts is too white for a train.

    Should also be noted Matt Smith defines it as a great loss to the show.

    House of the Dragon

    Matt Smith said the tone of the show was mostly Sapochnik (as I suspected). Any defects in these scenes are a contribution of his departure. Not off to a great start. https://variety.com/2024/tv/news/matt-smith-house-of-the-dragon-season-2-weaker-daemon-1236017805/

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Cash grab. Cancel the good GoT shows in development.... "Hey there's still a market for this shit" - after HOTD numbers came in. Oh right-- better make some "shit" then.. Queue Bloys greenlight that Jon fucking Snow couldn't get from HBO.

    House of the Dragon

    damn galadriel sucks. she was on screen for 1 second during that clip and was easily the worst part of it. cringe-inducing lead role is another reason not to watch

    House of the Dragon

    Expect less with Bloys in charge now. Settle for less has been his brand.

    The Acolyte

    Even if they cast white people they'll just be idiots, cucks, or a very weak villain that is easily toppled. It's best they're not represented at all for now.

    Blade (2025)

    Ali is the only thing that got that story changed. If he walks, it's probably going back to female centric.

    Dragon Age: Why We Can't Have Nice Things

    It's like they wrote out reasons people like BG3 and got it all wrong. "Those romance cutscenes!" They added some spice, but it wasn't anything to market. The bearfucking or whatever was what grabbed viral attention. A keynote interview saying "yo we got sex scenes, run and tell that homeboy"...

    The First Omen (2024)

    Initially skipped this nun movie because Immaculate had released prior, it was just too soon for another nun movie. Everyone sort of did the same thing. Was pleasantly surprised by the very high production value. This movie makes it look like they spent maybe 20 bucks filming Immaculate. Hard...

    Dragon Age: Why We Can't Have Nice Things

    This is the reaction a friend of mine had who doesn't post or follow forums. He said it looks very medicore, even if better than expected. Just because the bar was set low for Veilguard doesn't make it a buy.

    Yeah the thundering trap beats killed it for me.

    Dragon Age: Why We Can't Have Nice Things

    Agree especially for a completionist. BG3 wore me down by Act 2 on inventory management that I shelved it even though I thought everything was great, I had trouble ignoring items and drops and managing shit so I essentially quit. Keep meaning to go back to it after I did some mental exercises to...

    Bad Boys: Ride or Die (2024)

    That's a good example. Viola Davis could probably carry Bad Boys 5.

    Bad Boys: Ride or Die (2024)

    I guess Pam Grier. But that's a 12 million dollar budget on Jackie Brown and it's not a franchise. Not a lot of risks taken with Sam Jackson co-starring.

    Bad Boys: Ride or Die (2024)

    It already meets DEI standard so they don't have any real reason to mess with it. Black female leads can't really be marketed in a blockbuster. Can't think of any off the top of my head in a lead role in a blockbuster (not supporting talking lead only) Vanessa Williams jumps out I guess, but...

    Thank god they sent that survey out asking if people would pay $100. Must have been an overwhelming no response.

    Challengers (2024)

    While the director doesn't have smash box office success credits, he has more than a few competent movies in his catalogue. I expected this to be well-made just based on the fact it was greenlit by the studio even after Bones "flopped", with what passes as a faux A-list lead these days (I know...

    Dragon Age: Why We Can't Have Nice Things

    That's what I told friends before they bought the game. It's there, but fully optional and you can shut it down.

    The Acolyte

    ILM's StageCraft was fairly cheap way of doing it was my understanding. A 180m StageCraft budget would be crazy. If they used all outsourced CG and 0 StageCraft bs then I could see the 180m

    MMA Thread

    McGregor said it's still a go, but in the past UFC hasn't been shy about cancelling events if the fighter doesn't meet the press obligation or signals they won't do any press. That's typically non-negotiable for UFC. If the presser doesn't get rescheduled, strong chance UFC is cancelling the...

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    They were re-signed for up to 5 seasons in a long term deal-- with Season 3 already being confirmed. No inclusion, no changes. They were considering it, but Amazon decided not to rock the boat. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/rings-of-power-showrunners-deal-season-3-1235838612/

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    And Peter Jackson was a visionary. Rings of Power is run by "just some guys", who admittedly are "just getting the hang of it" after Season 1, and who "hope Season 2 is going to give them another crack at it". It takes more than mea culpas and humble attitudes to portray Tom Bombadil on...

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    They paid an arm and a leg for it. The estate is pleased with this decision to ruin Tom Bombadil.
