Ugh. We've really hit the bottom of the barrel with remakes

Clearly, you've yet to see the Saved by the Bell reboot trailer in the other thread

Oh God. I have not.

I was amused by the trailer of the new Sofia Coppola movie.

Nothing groundbreaking at all, but it was fine.

Olivia Wilde in talks to direct unnamed Marvel film at Sony

https://deadline.com/2020/08/olivia-wil ... ssion=true

[VinylGuy]

mildy exited about. If Sony gives her full control and she can handle the aesthetic, im super interested. If its going to be a visual generic superhero movie like Captain Marvel i couldnt care less

[bada]

no one gets full control for a studio tentpole....6 months from now we'll get the split for creative differences....

[VinylGuy]

Just in the aesthetic. Wilde seems to be very interesting in that regard. And i do hope is for a Spider Gwen movie too.

Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

[VinylGuy]

For sure. Also the fact that she is a teenager. And leave the door open for a multiverse thing with her visiting some other places...perfect.

wtf. stop it already

Batfleck Returns: Ben Affleck will take another turn playing Batman in the upcoming Flash movie. What's more, Michael Keaton will be joining him (also playing Batman).


you get a batman! you get a batman! and you get a batman!

[VinylGuy]

yesss i love his is back!! Seems they may fix the JL disaster after all.

[bada]

Yeah I don't think I could ever have too much Batman.

[Strat]

but why do we have to have multiple people playing batman at the same fucking time?

Afleck was just noted to be doing it again too.

[VinylGuy]

They are doing Flashpoint on The Flash movie. In the comics books Flash saves his mother but he fucks up his timeline and opens up the multiverse. So, they are about to make DC´s multiverse a thing in the movies, and have all this different Batman being official.

[wease]

I’m growing weary of all the theatrical reboots of the character.

I was just doing some collection browsing and see that this started the New 52, incorporating the multiverse sounds relatively fine in theory but I would surmise exponentially harder to effectively market.
