Every time Cameron makes a movie people say it's gonna flop and yet they don't.

And then they try to justify anything that doesn't crack a billion dollars is a flop because it features a minority character.

That's not what I read. The spinoff is filming in Europe and she is currently unable to spend 8 months in Europe.

What are you looking at?
Watched the first two episodes of Mythic Quest while avoiding watching the final episode of Our Flag Means Death (I do this with really good shows, it takes me a while to finally watch the finale) and I'm enjoying it, though I hope McElhenney eases up on acting like delusional Mac. Anyone else been keeping up with it? I see it has two seasons.

It will not be. Roger Rabbit was a passion project adapted from a beloved book by a great filmmaker in his prime. This is... not.

I completely forgot this was coming back. Actually, I'm not sure I even knew it was, I don't think I saw any ads for it at all.

I only just watched the first season and really enjoyed it, though I feel like it also didn't get a lot of promotion when it came out. Watching it now made for an interesting pairing with Severance (and Upload).

Last episode of Tokyo Vice was released on HBOMax. If you like mafia movies and shows, DO NOT sleep on this. What a fantastic series. It left a wide door open for season 2 and beyond. I cannot get enough of the Japanese Yakuza, the cops, the underworld, and newspapers. Great cast, fun to watch. Augh. So good.

They’ll still make 5 or 6 of these stupid things though because at this point Cameron has devoted literal decades of his life to an immensely stupid franchise that no one except those How To with John Wilson weirdos cares about.

Imagining betting against James loving Cameron.

Well, of course I know him.

It’s still going to make hundreds of millions of dollars, hence why I put “flop” in quotes. It just won’t make billions and finally cement itself as a franchise people give a poo poo about, which is what every major tentpole movie uses as a measure of success nowadays.

AFAIK this is his passion project so he kinda doesn’t give a poo poo.

He got the movies made which is what he wanted.

How are the late nites these days anyway? Conan was the only one I ever bothered to catch, and that was mostly youtube clips uploaded after the fact.

The one colbert does seems like it'd be the least bad, but whenever I've seen it, just felt like, Colbert: Chained.

Seth Meyers is pretty good. He covers the news well and has a really talented staff that he just let does whatever, Amber Ruffin is a delight.

Just started on WeCrashed. It seems pretty good so far one episode in, especially knowing the backstory thanks to Behind the Bastards' episode on Adam Neumann. There's definitely a lot there to hang a scandalous story on.

I guess my main comment is, Jared Leto sure is playing a convincing Tommy Wiseau

I gave up. It started fine, and Anne Hathaway's suplot is pretty loving great, but at some point I realised the central conclflit was the same every single episode, and the show was taking forever to get into a new groove.

Leto is a lizard person, he's great casting.

The new season of Undone is out! I was worried how they were going to handle the ending to season 1, but I watched the first episodes, and my doubts were put to shame. I just hope they go back to the other timeline at some time.

Ok good I thought weed was impairing my judgment. Yeah really wasn’t into episodes 3 and 4 at all.

I also wasn’t really into the idea of a continuation but the premiere was great. More promising than Russian Doll s2 so far. I’m glad I didn’t watch any trailers because I was expecting no Odenkirk whatsoever and even if he goes away later this is already a great amount of him

Odenkirk wasn't in any of the trailers or teaser clips at all. I guess they wanted to keep it a surprise.
