Atrocious Joe posted:Disney was ready to just recast actors but then Solo failed to live up to expectations. Any decision made during the production of Solo was therefore reversed. Recasting was over and digital de-aging was the new way forward. They have no idea what makes a movie good or bad, Donald Glover was p much the only good thing about that movie

I personally came out of Solo like "that movie could have been good if only they'd brought in an 80-year-old Harrison Ford and used CGI to torture his likeness like he's in Cloud City until he looks like the world's smoothest 80-year-old"

It sucks that Disney's CGI ghosts are clearly a deliberate strategy to gently caress over actors and Ehrenreich ended up the scapegoat in all of this. Like I get that Star Wars fans are babies but I would think they can understand the concept of replacing dead/geriatric actors for the same role.

The end goal of Disneys cgi zombies is to eventually replace actors all together. And they WILL keep trying till it sticks. People joke about Disney child stars being created in a lab but that is the actual goal. Getting people to accept a wholly original cgi “actor” not based on any actual human. No more actors likeness lawsuits, no more younger actors getting too old, no more worry that they’ll get canceled because they tweeted something about Jewish people. And most importantly no more actors who are popular enough to demand payment commiserate with their worth. “Celebrities” will be designed from the ground up by the algorithm to maximize their profit making potential.

Idk why but I think Harrison Ford is gonna be the first purely digitized actor. He's gonna sell his likeness to Disney for a billion dollars when he officially retires and become the first actor Officially Owned by Disney.

we are in an era where the character is the celebrity, and the actor's face is the character's face. if that makes sense. they can't reboot iron man with a new actor, at least not yet. And Tom Holland will not easily bring a huge following from spiderman to whatever he does next. People are fans of him as spiderman, not him alone. Not that clooney was famous because he did batman, I don't think. idk we've had a bunch of batmans and jokers but bale/ledger are sorta elevated as 'the real one' in my mind and the newer ones are kinda like, grotesque in some way. most reboots are

Atrocious Joe posted:For some reason the Marvel Star Wars comic authors decided that Emilia Clarke's character from Solo is the coolest person in the galaxy. There's been like three miniseries about how that character is the one person who scares the Emperor. She can beat Darth Vader in a sword fight, is immune to mind reading, and has a whole fleet of warships. This isn't a Solo tie-in either, this is the storyline happening right now. sounds like Mara Jade with the serial numbers filed off

Batman & Robin through (but not including) Iron Man was the last generation of Superhero movies where an actor playing the superhero did not sign an exclusivity deal to synergize their personal brand with that of the role they are playing. Ed Norton Hulk was like the last straggler from that era.

well anyway I'm thinking that's why they need to acquire the rights to an actor's likeness "from the beginning of time in perpetuity throughout the universe, by way of any technology here and now known or yet to be developed, in any and all media now known or hereinafter devised" (a real thing I have to sign in my contracts)

mastershakeman posted:theres probably more good movies on criterion than you can watch in a lifetime, why not just start with famous directors, watch their greatest hits, then drill down on the guys you like ? Just wanted to say thanks for posting this. Somehow I had never seen this site / list, and had only seen like the AFI and BFI "best movie" lists, so there is a ton of non-english stuff in the top couple hundred here that is new to me. My normal foreign film intake is largely limited to anime and kung-fu movies.

it is kind of interesting that the rise of prestige tv starting with the sopranos, also coincided with the inability of the given lead actor to be separated from their character, and then "cinematic universes" amped that up even further. clooney got famous with ER but when he made the big time jump to leading movies no one really still thought of him as dr ross anymore. conversely, gandolfini (rip) will always be tony soprano, bryan cranston is always going to be walter white (this is hal erasure), jon hamm is always going to be don draper, chris evans is always going to be steve rogers, etc.
