Theroadlesstravelled Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 The She-Hulk looks like it will be a pile of pish. Fair play on the choice of Hulk though. Tatiana Maslany is pretty. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FairWeatherFan Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 Michael Keaton's return as Batman looks like its jinxed. He's filmed two movies now in 'Batgirl' and 'The Flash', and both look like they're never going to see the light of day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How bad does it have to be that the reputational damage of letting it be seen is greater than even recouping a percentage of the near 100 million spent making it... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was planned as an HBOMAX original release. You could argue it was never going to make back it's money. Other than perhaps a fraction in international markets that don't have HBOMAX. There seems to be talk of reshoots being needed and the interconnected nature with other DC films causing issues. WBD might well see the costs in reshoots, post-production and marketing, as not being worth the slight return. The original budget came under the previous Warner Bros regime. So its not like its their money that's been spent. As soon as the merger went through, WBD were happy to shutdown CNN+ weeks/months after it had launched as they saw it as a money pit. EDIT: Seems it can also be used as a tax write-off this way. Edited August 3, 2022 by FairWeatherFan 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KnightswoodBear Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 Saw Thor: Love and Thunder at the cinema last night and enjoyed it a lot. It's taken the style of Ragnarok and turned it up to 11, which I suppose will define how much you like it or not. It's more of an all out comedy than even Ragnarok was, but the opening was pretty dark. I liked Christian Bale's Gorr, but would have liked him to have had a bit more to do. Tessa Thompson is woefully underused as well. Some of the musical cues are just perfect 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jagfox Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Just noticed The Sandman series on Netflix. Seems well put together and The Corinthian is in episode one so could be okay... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Connolly Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Ezra Miller got arrested again the other day. This headline is my favourite take, making it seem like it was planned in their calendar. Ezra Miller Apparently Appeared for Flash Reshoots Between Arrests 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have they not filmed bits of most of the Bat films in Glasgow since Nolan's films started the trend? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jumps around quite a bit in pace/tone but that feels consistent with the comics. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clown Job Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 Just watched that first episode of She Hulk, actually thought it was pretty good 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 Yeah, it was decent enough. Incidentally, I am the only one who watches the new intro closely every time there's a new series? Seems like Moon Knight has been removed already, wonder if that means we won't be seeing him again? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Develops into two main story arcs. If you're a fan of the original material it is certainly worth a watch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Connolly Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 I enjoyed the first episode of She-Hulk as well, but I suspect it will be vastly different to the rest of the series. The Hulk fight was good fun 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honestly united Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 (edited) Question for anyone thats read the comics, but is the Constantine in Sandman suppose to be the same one from the DC comics (that had his own series and appears occasionally in the arrow-verse) just changed sex? I've not read them but appears to be the same character, just now a woman. Edited August 22, 2022 by honestly united 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've not read them but appears to be the same character, just now a woman. John Constantine was descended from Lady Johanna Constantine, and they are both characters in Sandman. They have changed the John character for the series, with Jenna Coleman playing both 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Connolly Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 I know the reasons, but it's annoying that Disney+ are promoting the Hulk Collection, which doesn't actually feature the Hulk movie from the MCU 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
