That'd be dark but incredibly unlikely. Sadly the lovely treatment of animators is an industry problem that extends beyond just this most recent Spider-Verse news. Also unfortunately, animation is not that easy a field to break into (professionally speaking) so even if a bunch of people quit, there are countless amateurs out there on the internet that I'm sure would be overjoyed to fill all those roles.

Nah, they still pack halls if they want to, it's a little writer's strike and a LOT the threat of a potential SAG-AFTRA strike, because if that hits there's no way Charlie Cox will smile and wave and promise that this is an all-new Daredevil. Honestly that strike is gonna probably stop most of the big movie and TV folks from announcing for hall H.

So far Sony, Universal, and Netflix have also all dropped out. So yeah, it's SAG-AFTRA. The biggest player actually guaranteeing attendance is Amazon, who are currently pushing The Boys stuff a bunch. HBO and Paramount are fence-sitting. I'd feel bad for the folks that buy tickets to this thing a year in advance but honestly most of them are probably there to try and flip con exclusive toys anyway.

I'm there to promote my dumb RPG-adjacent books. At least getting there and walking around will be a little easier this year.

Would it have been inconceivable to cast Bad Bunny as a more popular comic character even if they weren't originally latino? If it's already an excuse for a celebrity vehicle I just don't get being bound by the license.

I've seen some folks speculate this was why Lord and Miller left Star Wars.

Lord and Miller got fired from Solo because Jonathan Kasdan was upset that they were allowing the cast to improvise on-set instead of sticking to his script 100 percent, and he cried about it to his dad.

They almost definitely just gave him a list of characters to choose from and he picked the luchadore regardless of being a villain who was in two comics ever

No? That might be coming from the hit piece that Lucasfilm put out in Vulture or The Hollywood Reporter. They were literally less than a month away--I think three weeks--from finishing the shoot; they were fired in June 2017 and were still on-track to meet the May 2018 release date at that time. Ron Howard re-shooting like three quarters of the movie after the Kasdans' tantrum was what forced massive crunch in editing and effects on Solo.

The whole fiasco of that movie is due to Jonathan and then Lawrence Kasdan throwing a fit and whining to Kathleen Kennedy that Lord & Miller weren't being true to their script. And since Lawrence Kasdan had massive cachet with Lucasfilm and Disney after co-writing The Force Awakens with JJ Abrams and in turn making Disney a metric gently caress-ton of money with it, Lord & Miller got tossed overboard.

If that is true, they should absolutely rip off the Morbius “together we could do some good” line to troll Sony.

Creative differences with the Kasdans about tone were certainly a major factor but it wasn't the only thing. This "hitpiece" talks about how both sides felt there were scheduling issues on the film (and disagreed about where the fault lay)

quote:

Meanwhile, Lord and Miller, the exceptionally successful team behind The Lego Movie and 21 Jump Street, were chafing, too, according to a source close to them. There were “deep fundamental philosophical differences” in filmmaking styles, this person says, and the directors felt they were being given “zero creative freedom.” They also felt they were being asked to operate under “extreme scheduling constraints” and “were never given enough days for each scene from the very beginning.”
...
“They collaborate closely with their actors and give them creative freedom that, in their experience, brings out the actors’ best performances,” this person says. “Lawrence Kasdan would not allow this and demanded that every line was said word for word. To appease him and the studio, Lord and Miller would do several takes exactly as written and then shoot additional takes.”

Before hearing that I fully believed all the origin moments in the film were meant as tongue in cheek jokes about how over played they are in prequels that Howard re shot seriously.

The fact they were serious from the beginning is just kind of sad.

The Flash had a 75% decline from its opening week. The only comic book movie to ever do worse was Morbius.

Additionally, they are offering "buy one, get one free" ticket deals for the movie after only two weeks.

Looking pretty rough. I think this is probably more than enough to cut Ezra loose.

Which means a dive into third in its second week, with Spider-Verse re-taking the top spot and Elemental at #2. And it's only a scant $100,000 above No Hard Feelings in fourth.

It cannot be overstated how hard it's bombing.

So, Aquaman 2 is done shooting, it has a release coming in a few months, but it's done and ready to go, right? And Blue Beetle is the same right? Technically nothing to stop either of these from coming out at this point?

I'm just wondering how much Flash bombing is going to hobble the Gunniverse out the gate. Does this mean that Creature Commandos or Superman are going to have major budget restrictions?

The gunniverse is going to have 1 movie and 1 TV show, both with sub-adult swim budgets, before the dc IPs are sold off to the reddit ceo.
