I am really not digging this phase of Nicolas Cage’s career where he embraces the memes about himself, The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent was execrable.

I believe the first time he talked publicly about his movies having to fit his “brand” was Rampage where he admittedly openly while promoting it that he had the ending changed because it didn’t fit the kind of movies the audience “expects” from him, which was also the exact moment where I started to turn on the guy.

Chairman Capone posted:Reportedly, Taika Waititi's Star Wars movie isn't cancelled, he just isn't going to start working on it until he finishes his live action Akira adaptation. I’m sure we’ll see it after Akira, and First Goal Wins, and We’re Wolves, and What We Do in the Shadows 2, Flash Gordon, The Incal, and his Time Bandits remake.

ChickenHeart posted:Does the ultra-conservative creator get royalties from this? The answer to this question is always yes. If an IP came from small beginnings and the mind of an individual auteur it is very rare throughout history they don't negotiate they get some portion of every property made from that IP forever, and there is no way to enjoy something from it guilt-free if you find their stances on issues are unacceptable. There's no Harry Potter media you can "safely" consume just like there's no FNAF media that doesn't give money to Cawthon. joylessdivision posted:I honestly can't believe this thing has any legs left.

Alexander Hamilton posted:What happened to Gareth Edwards that got him put in movie jail? Was it Rogue One? Because it still made a billion dollars and the aesthetic he created in that movie seems like it was copied going forward. Rogue One was plagued with production problems and most of 2016 was spent with Tony Gilroy rewriting the script and acting as second unit (and probably the guy actually in charge) director on reshoots.

Professor Shark posted:Hey what happened with the latest Guy Ritchie movie with Stratham? Jason is doing his thing but I found that it had a really weird feeling and didn’t finish it, it’s like it was done by a film student trying to imitate Guy Ritchie It is a very strange movie. It was knocked about six ways from Sunday because of COVID and then actually delayed again because it was supposed to come out right as the war in Ukraine was starting up and the bad guys in it are Ukrainian, so Ritchie probably actually filmed this thing like four years ago.

Grendels Dad posted:It's like when you get two volcano movies the same year, or movies where a guy has to murder a whole building, or a Michael Bay movie and a Roland Emmerich movie. From what I understand, the first two were two different production companies who got ahold of the rights to different titles in the same book series, and then the third was a sequel to the first. But they were all very successful and weren't yet experiencing diminishing returns, so I'm not sure why Hollywood quit on them as quickly as they arrived. I don't know, just a small weird thing.

muscles like this! posted:Another one bites the dust as Taika Waititi's Star Wars project is reportedly DOA. This isn’t confirmed. Waititi made a joke about Shawn Levy at the TIFF Tribute Awards of “maybe unlike me he’ll finish his Star Wars” and a lot of sites reported that as confirmation it’s been cancelled, but that likely just means he hasn’t gotten to it yet and several blogs with inside sources are claiming it’s still on.

The FNAF fanbase is still very much alive and the movie is currently tracking for a $40 million opening weekend, which would make back its budget instantly and be the second-best opening weekend of Fall only behind Taylor Swift. They all got very upset upon learning their money was going right into campaign contributions for Mitch McConnell, but internalized it so they could continue to Consume Product pretty fast.

FlamingLiberal posted:I think it's less impactful for horror movies At this point it’s completely sporadic whether or not a film does well in theaters if it also came out on streaming same day to the degree that you can’t just point to it and blame it for financial woes. Dune, Godzilla vs Kong, Halloween Kills and Ends, and Mortal Kombat all came out on streaming the same day and did well (relative to other movies at the time) at the box office, and as we’ve seen lately, the entire theatrical box office is in a slump right now. At this point I’m starting to believe that the idea that simultaneous streaming releases kill box office exists because it’s what The Suicide Squad bombing got blamed on despite the million other factors as to why that movie flopped.

Your average two-hour movie is originally shot as an assembly cut that 3-5 hours long and then it becomes the directors' and editors' jobs to cut it down to as short as a runtime as possible from that while still keeping a coherent plot. I've seen way more movies ruined by cutting the movie too short than ones ruined by keeping them too long. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzH4CDmZ3h8
