‘Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom’ poster appeals to your nostalgia because the last movie was garbage
Ron Howard directing ‘Han Solo’ movie, so here’s to bland ass boring movies
Ron Howard is officially taking over directing duties for the Han Solo movie. And, man. Talk about pivoting from two interesting filmmakers to the most middle-of-the-road, inoffensive, boring-ass choice. The first two post-Lucas Star Wars offerings have een a shameless remake of the original movie, and a heavily reshot movie that cleaved far away from its director’s vision. I’m fearful Lucasfilm is straight-up afraid or unwilling to offer anything remotely fresh in a galaxy far, far away.
Director Matt Reeves says ‘The Batman’ will be influenced by Hitchcock
You know what. After Wonder Woman, with Whedon shepherding Justice League, and the executives behind the DC cinematic universe *finally* fucking getting the message, why not be excited about The Batman? I mean, right?
John Carpenter co-writing ‘Big Trouble In Little China’ sequel comic so that’s some fun news
Following the whirlwind of disappointing, feces-flecked news surrounding Lord and Miller being fired from Han Solo, here’s some neat news about a creator I love. Woof! Look at that run on sentence. Anyways! Yeah!
‘Game of Thrones’ Season 7 Trailer: Winter Is Here
This reminds me, I have to catch-up on Thrones before the premiere.
Phil Lord and Chris Miller met with DC about ‘The Flash’ movie during ‘Han Solo’ hiatus
During their Han Solo movie hiatus, which then transformed into their firing, Phil Lord and Chris Miller met with DC films to discuss The Flash movie. They had previously been attached, then dropped off. Fuck, man. I’m all about them joining the troubled production, and righting that ship.
HBO developing ‘Watchmen’ series with Damon Lindelof. Don’t get my hopes up, plz
HBO is developing a Watchmen series alongside Damon Lindelof. Woah, nice. A Watchmen adaptation has always made most sense (to me) as an HBO series, or on another premium channel. As well, I’ve always had a problem with Lindelof, but apparently the dude more than acquitted himself with The Leftovers. So. Color me excited. Worst case Ontario, it still can’t be as bad as the Snyder movie.
‘Han Solo’ spin-off movie loses its directors and now everything is terrible
Citing creative differences, Lord and Miller have left the Han Solo movie. These two dudes were, quite frankly, the only reason I hate faith such a movie could be executed well. The two directors have made a career out of taking seemingly hackneyed and offensively dull premises and turning them into refreshingly subversive, and intelligent comedies. And now. Man.
I am…seriously fucking worried about this movie, and bummed.
Greg Pak writing ‘John Wick’ prequel comic book series, lest no mystery be sacred
Last week, news dropped that a John Wick TV show was in the works, that would delve into the mysterious world of assassins that Wick inhabits. And I was like, eh, I don’t know, I like it being mysterious and undefined. But! It could be good. So, just cut and paste that same sentiment of mine when it comes time to ask me how I feel about a John Wick prequel comic.
How about you?
