Great thing about the Fantastic Four is that "the Bacteria Building" can either be your phone's auto-correct or a totally legit thing that existed in the comics.

“Bacteria Bulldog” sounds like the kind of nickname you can only earn if you live in the film 8MM.

Read a review of the Death Wish remake and it apparently has a message that cops cannot help you (only trust your fists) but also it isn't their fault and instead it is the community's fault because they don't help cops enough.

this makes me unironically want a movie that's basically the equivalent of a 90s arcade beat-em-up

The Raid and Hobo with a Shotgun are both like 75% of the way there, if a movie had The Raid's nonstop rear end-beating and Hobo's aesthetic it'd be on point

CHRIS HELMSWORTH IS

and


a formula one driver... I think? and..

a dumb... administrative assistant?

and uh

wait his Star Trek character died, didn't he?


Really what would be fun is a Battle Royale remake starring ALL. THE. CHRISES.

In a world where POCs have taken all the leading roles, four white guys all named Chris must duke it out mano-a-mano to win the last role for a middleaged good looking white guy. PINE! HELMSWORTH! EVANS! PRATT! THEY'RE ALL HERE!

Probably scheduling, as Tatum and Hill wanted the Jump Street characters to interact with Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones' characters, neither of whom have any interest in doing another MIB movie.

9/11 being treated as the worst tragedy ever enrages me, considering how many worse things happened and continue to happen throughout the world. It's yet more america wanking itself.

I can't find the clip unfortunately, but there's an episode of NCIS where one of the main characters is suffering from amnesia, so when another character explains 9/11 he ends up puking and having a panic attack.

I thought, for NCIS anyway, that was actually handled rather well, especially since it's Gibbs' mentor who saw 9/11 as a personal failure of his own (long story, I think he had a shot at Bin Laden before and didn't take it) and left his job, and it's being specifically compared to the more recent naval disaster that had Gibbs considering the same course of action. (before the amnesia. Again, long story)

Highlander remake is on, again: http://deadline.com/2018/03/highlander-reboot-gets-moving-after-colony-writer-ryan-condal-hands-in-script-1202307522/

Lionsgate head gave his approval after the most important aspect of the movie had been cracked:

We’ve finally got a screenplay we’re happy with. We have set up the story so it has sequel potential.

Have to make sure you work in sequel hooks first and foremost!

If you think that, along the way, you're not going to fail... you're blind.

There's no one I've ever met, no matter how successful they are, who hasn't said they had their failures along the way.

I hope the sequel hook is all the idiotic sequels rolled into a single credits sting. Just a spaceship crashing into a mountain to reveal Mario van Peebles becoming Satan.

I don't follow NCIS because I'm not a fan of soap operas, but if the guy had amnesia, why would any of that matter to him? Unless it was conveniently selective amnesia, where Gibbs remembered everything except 9/11 so the writers could clumsily shoehorn in a reference to 9/11 and harvest some cheap catharsis.

Like if I had amnesia and you told me--face-to-face, without videos or photos or actually being there-- a terrorist attack destroyed the WTC and killed thousands of people, I'd certainly be shaken but I don't know if I would lose my mind/lunch as if it just happened in front of my own two eyes like Real American Mr. Gibbs did
