Blockhouse posted:I think just looking at the trailer it's incredibly obvious who dies It's even more obvious when you realise that Rick, Peacemaker, et. al aren't in any of the scenes where they're fighting Starro. So Bloodsport, King Shark, Ratcatcher, Harley and Polka-Dot Man are the only ones who make it close to the finish line.

They might die but maybe they'll just get really hurt and maimed instead Then they can be back for the sequel, with like, robot bits for where they got injured someone hire me immediately

Gunn said on insta he'd be down for making a Harley movie. Seems him and Robbie have become pals. Also that he'll never do another Troma film cause no control and no money. Okay dude. Spit on your roots.

Okay dude. Spit on your roots. Why would you get to the level Gunn is on where you are given pretty much unlimited money and full creative control to see your vision made real and then go back to being told what to do by another guy (even a guy as cool as Lloyd seems) for no budget and no pay? That's not him spitting on his roots, it's him not being a crazy idiot.

Why in the world would you go back to Troma when you are one of the biggest directors on the planet? I’m sure Gunn has to turn down a lot of projects.

If you asked James Gunn the question “as a young new director, should I go do a Troma type film” I have zero doubt he’d let you know what you’d be in for (freedom, price, etc) but he’d end with “but absolutely go for it, you have to start somewhere”. You can still respect and appreciate your roots without wanting to personally revisit it.

I just thought it was a rude statement. But most of his Insta q+a's come across like that (and he's even addressed it as he's busy). 🤷 E:  Maybe less making GBS threads since he likes Lloyd but to me it comes across as insulting. Vintersorg fucked around with this message at 20:18 on Jun 24, 2021 |

I don't see how you can read that as insulting at all. It's just true. James Gunn is a 50 year old man who's had two giant hits with the literal biggest media company in the country. He's an adult, not a fresh out of film school kid looking to break into the business. There is nothing in it for him to pretend like he is.

He's just being more direct than some boilerplate thing about scheduling or The Right Project. Sure it could be phrased better but he doesn't really poo poo on Troma or shy away from it.

I think we're just used to celebrities playing overly nice rather than being bluntly honest. I mean at this point I just assume everything positive they say about a project or a colleague is bullshit for the sole purpose of protecting their fragile position in the industry and it's only when they're like "eh, it was a paycheck" I feel like I can trust what they're saying.

Yeah, I have a lot of fondness for Troma but they're not exactly big, and once hitting Gunn's position I have no expectation that he would go back to directing low-budget splatter films, at least not until his career takes a massive downturn. Could they convince him to help produce low-budget splatter films though? They could probably get a few extra bucks for fake blood with him attached like that, I'd be down.

He put Lloyd in the prison scene in Guardians. Would love a anthology type movie like Twilight Zone: The Movie, or Four Rooms, with James Gunn, Peter Jackson, and Sam Raimi.

Troma is doing that weird big budget toxic avenger movie so they should get Gunn back to direct a $200 million dollar version of Tromeo & Juliet starring Tom Cruise.

I think it's neat but I'm also kinda disappointed that it looks like they're gonna give Shang-Chi powers via those rings (at least some rings for a little while) and the movie's probably gonna end up with him getting all of them. I mean I guess they gotta give him some sort of super power whenever the next team up happens but I kinda hoped they'd just have him solve everything by kung fu-ing real good like comics

Plus it would also paint a massive target on his back.

I've watched Kung Fu Hustle too much so I can't help get slightly disappointed when I see a wrist covered in rings start doing magic. If you put the iron rings on you better punch a dude in the chest with them.

Given that it is Starro they are fighting, maybe people who aren't in the big fight scenes aren't there because they got mind controlled by Mini Starros? I mean they are probably dead, but if you are using Starro the Conqueror you have better have people mind controlled with star fish glued to their face.

Shang should get the rings and destroy them because he doesn't need them and they're too dangerous to keep.
