kiimo posted:And now everybody went to see Joker so Todd Phillips is going to continue getting work even though he hasn't directed a good movie since Old School Define 'good.' I didn't pay money for Joker but I did, in fact, watch it. It's perfectly watchable, and quite a bit more ambitious than literally every MCU film of the last decade, on a quarter of the budget. I don't know if that makes it 'good', but it certainly spells good things for the director.

If any movie was made to be a FYAD spoiler title, it would’ve been Joker. Those cowards.

IDGI. Josh Trank owns.

CelticPredator posted:Josh Trank owns. Yeah, the bits of his movie that identifiably made it into the final version of Fantastic 4 are pretty cool, they're just trapped amongst a bunch of garbage. I suppose I can understand why Fox didn't want a body-horror F4, but like with Lord and Miller, mainly seems a case of a studio freaking out when a director tried to actually make the movie they were hired to make. Also, I hope people are aware that the Dr Dolittle reports y'all are reacting to are just some nonsense someone posted on reddit. Like, here we go: quote:J.J. Abrams shoots all his movies nude but for tightly-wound layers of plastic wrap on the theory that it enhances the erotic energies directed into the film. That's why family-friendly Disney let him go for Episode VIII, until having to admit his theory might be true following the mixed reactions to The Last Jedi. Feel free to get all worked up about that. Sir Kodiak fucked around with this message at 23:27 on Oct 14, 2019 |

Did L&M getting fired from Solo let them work on Into the Spiderverse? Because I'd much rather keep that than theoretical Solo.

They were working on Spider-Verse before then, and probably worked on it through the production. Although it freed them a up a lot more, so that was probably good. But they also didn't direct Spider-Verse, just wrote and produced it.

Why on earth is that movie asking me to empathize with anyone who chose to work at Fox News? The words and actions of every person in that movie should give me the same visceral reaction as Lithgow's makeup does.

It's going to rile up the conservatives and Fox News viewers (including the king of Fox News viewers himself) when the movie makes bank and headlines. The first scene in the trailer tells me it's not going to make us try to empathize with anyone too too much.

loooooooooool The sun was intensifying above Gaghan’s deck. The director is an unlikely picture of domestic repose these days.. His is a house where a volume of “My Struggle” sits next to a child’s sink kick-stand.

"From the Acadamy Award winning Co-Writer of the Big Short"  Speaking of trying to make dispicable people sympathetic. This actually feels like it has a similar vibe going on and will probably make me just as angry.Richard Kind at Rudy Giuliani though, now that is some inspired casting.

To each their own, I suppose. That sounds pretty interesting to me. I'm curious to see how sympathetic they're going to try to portray everyone. I hate everyone that's on Fox at this point, but maybe the movie will add some dimension that I've missed because I've been consumed with my hatred for them.

The trailer starts with Kat McKinnon's character just straight up saying that part of working at Fox News is demonizing minorities. Like maybe the film will suck, but the trailer literally tells you right off the bat that everyone there is ethically compromised.

Please don't be from the 50s anymore, it's not a good look. Everyone is aware that he's a pile of garbage, maybe this will show you that ladies can be piles of garbage too.

Full agency to... not get sexually harassed, assaulted, or blackmailed? Do you always refer to women as "ladies"? Are you one of those people that thinks that criminals also deserve to be raped in prison because they had full agency when they committed a crime? I just want to be clear that in this movie about sexual predation, your stance on the victims is "they deserved it". We can move on now.
