    F1 (2025)

    maybe. But also the Joseph Kosinski-connection is probably legit.

    Thunderbolts* (2025)

    Nah. Discs are cringe. Go back to VHS and a year of having to physically get those from a Blockbuster near you, before you put it on stream.

    Attack of the 50 Foot Woman

    So all they need to do is include some obscure cameo and/or opening crawl hint referencing a previous 50-foot women movie, and suddenly it'll magically not be a remake :)

    Superman: Legacy (2025)

    It's a lex luthor plan ;) Getting nostalgia vibes to BvS Honest Trailer!

    The Fantastic Four: First Steps (2025)

    Seems like it'll outperform all other Fantastic Four movies, even adjusted for inflation, even with all other fantastic four movies releasing in a pre-COVID, much more theatre-focussed market. On top of potential Marvel and/or super hero fatique. Etc.. seems. The last time a Jurrasic-Dino...

    The Fantastic Four: First Steps (2025)

    That was boring as hell. wtf. Retro-Apple-Store-60s-look was ok for a while, but man, what a snoozefest.

    The Naked Gun (2025)

    Keeping it short and cheeful is also definitely a strength. Works for what it is and for doing a Naked Gun movie without Nielson.

    Superman: Legacy (2025)

    I mean, the "Superman-lifts-buildings/islands/planets/whatever without them breaking" trope has been around forever. And Zack Snyder did it just the same in Justice League 🤷‍♂️

    Superman: Legacy (2025)

    Considering your species / race to be apriori superior (White or Kryptonian) and by extention entiteled to conquer and rule others on geneologial merit, as well as do some purposeful breeding to preserve/re-create the superior species hits a lot of Nazi boxes. Missing the obsession with Nation...

    Superman: Legacy (2025)

    Gotta milk the comic movie slop while you can. It's easy millions if you can get it.

    Superman: Legacy (2025)

    Woman of Tomorrow was very popular comic series that received mutliple awards. Seems like a pretty straightforward idea to take that, no? Like X-Men Dark Phoenix or whatever. Adaptations might be shit, but movies will always come back to it because it's got name recognition. That said...

    Avengers: Doomsday (2025)

    I mean, if last seen is Doomsday itself for RDJ, it should be for all of the others too, presumbly. Lol. Just marketing garbage.

    Marvel Universe stuff

    so are Ant Man, Gambit, etc.. bring a thief is a pretty common comic archetype 🤷‍♂️ The whole hero-in-mask-doing-good-while1being-an-outlaw schtick superheroes are build on comes from Robin Hood, Zorro, etc-style thief-myths

    Thunderbolts* (2025)

    The concept of a "superhero ladder" has always been flawed. Superhero-fights always end exactly as the story demands it and every superhero ever written can both lose and win to every other superhero ever written at all times. There is no ranking.

    Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning (2025)

    Mission Impossible past 4 or so is just Johnny Knoxville with more budget and less jokes. They don't even market them with anything in the movie anymore, and mostly Tom Cruise breaking his toe or loosing some teeth in some dumb stunt.

    Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One (2023)

    Nah. Just MI. Ghost Protocol isn't my favourite, but it tried something different from MI3 with the putting the spectactular stunts front and centre of the movie (and even more so the marketing) The forgot to make an actual movie with a story and characters and such to go with it, but it was...

    It better be. The last few weren't.

    Deadpool & Wolverine

    They are not making any claims or coherent argument about timelines. Marvel multiverse is just an excuse for random cameos and memberberries, fuck logic, since the Spiderman one. Now with extra 4th-wall breaks. That's all.

    The Acolyte

    I mean, describes Empire Strikes Back perfectly. Add to that horribly forced ret-cons like making Vader suddenly Luke's father, which fits in zero with the original movie. Woke agenda of having a black guy run a trading outpost. Forced strong women-shit by implying Leia might be force sensitive...
  22. Z

    The Acolyte

    Dunno. seems fairly standard scifi channel stuff with star wars painted on. Is it great cinematic art? No. Is it Prequel/ewok-levels bad? No. YouTube/Twitter trying to make every random Star Wars thing into the next huge woke-scandal before the elections is getting a bit trite.

    Blade (2025)

    The funny thing is, nobody ever used to claim he's some hard-wording down-to-earth bro earning an honest living by "working his ass off" either. His schtick was always low-effort hollywood paychecks for minimal work to supplement is social media ego-trip, no?

    The Fall Guy (2024)

    Well, he plays a Dude-style character in Poolman. The hair is definitely for that role.

    Deadpool & Wolverine

    Really? What hit / success did Jackman have outside Wolverine recently? 2017 The Greatest Showman was a sleeper hit that made up for a slow start with a ridiculously long run. Before that? um? Pan was a horrendous flop in 2016. Some Early 2010s movies like Prisoners, Real Steel and Les Mis, but...
  26. Z

    Deadpool & Wolverine

    Yeah. Neither of these actors really have huge other gigs. Jackman is arguably semi-retired and doesn't do much at all anymore, this aside, obviously. Reynolds schtick annoyingly seems to be to do kinda-deadpool-jokes/role in pretty much everything else he does. He's great as Deadpool, and I...

    Wut? She's like a decade younger than those old farts, lol.

    Flesh of the Gods

    Dunno. Oscar Isaac's acting wasn't the issue with moon knight IMO. He did a pretty great job doing all the different characters/personalities, I thought. And clearly had fun with it. I remember watching the first episode and thinking this could be great. Than it just nose-dived.

    Warhammer 40k

    That people crying about the alleged lore-sanctity of Custodes, when they haven't been anything resembling original lore for a decade or so, are just lying to themselves instead of simply admitting to being the female-o-phobic cavemen-nazis they are.

    Warhammer 40k

    In ancient 40K Custodes were just guardsmen.

    Deadpool & Wolverine

    "Luck is not a super-power" was the only thing funny in the shit-sequel.
  33. Z

    Deadpool & Wolverine

    I mean, they'll obviously will be jumping universes too. TVA and Sorcerer-portals all over. So Dead-Ant-Man-location doesn't have to be anything more than just one stop in the story.

    Warhammer 40k

    1) In the original version / lore / setting of warhammer 40K, Adeptus Custodes were regular normal humans stationed on terra. 2) They retconned the fucking shit out of them for profit, as they did with many other parts of the setting, in this case turning Custodes into some weird Space Marines'...

    Deadpool & Wolverine

    I mean, the have no rules. Some alt-universe variants just use the same actor (various Dr. Stranges, all Kang variants, etc..), but if they have memberberry-actors floating around, they'll freely use those too (Spiderman, Prof. X in Dr. Strange 2, which presumably also wasn't the "Fox-verse"?)...
  36. Z

    Warhammer 40k

    Nah. GW did what they always do and wrote new stuff into the product line the same way they always did. If the change had been "Custodes were always psykers before" or "Custodes always had two heads before", or some such, nobody would've given a fuck, just like nobody ever gave a fuck about...

    Deadpool & Wolverine

    Whatever it is, no way they'll "integrate" the Fox-movies long term. If they do MCU-X-Men down the road, they'll definitely want fresh cast, stories (well, probably license to do the Phoenix shit all over again), etc.. And "multiverse" these days is basically just an excuse to member-berry...

    Warhammer 40k

    I mean, these retcons in Empire Strikes Back were ridiculus, I agree. Vader is now Luke's father? That was never ever mentioned in the original and makes absolutly no sense with what Obi-Wan said in the original. Not to mention the retcon of Leia being Luke's sisters, combined with all the woke...

    Warhammer 40k

    Lol. Nothing could alienate genuine long-term fans more than this wood-face idiot ruining another franchise. If there's a genuine raping of childhood memories, it's no political agenda, but this idiot defiling DC comics, the Witcher and now 40K. And the most long-term Warhammer fans don't care...

    Warhammer 40k

    Maybe. But they still do it all the time. There never was a Rogal Dorn Battle Tank. 2023 Astra Militarum Codex comes out, and it's "always been there". Worked the same way for probably hundreds of Space Marine kits. All the weird Flyers. Centurions. Razorbacks. Basically anything not in Rogue...
