Zelazny would have cool wuxia sword fights but not at the expense of the psycho-sexual vision quests.

Its a 10% share not full control so while the private equity firm will do everything they can to force them to do generic 300M dollar capeslop theoretically they can still refuse to do that

They don't just threaten their capitol but future investment opportunities as well.

This looks like someone else, but Asylum is still around and just had a movie with a bunch of megalodons as a mockbuster to Meg 2 Speaking of mockbusters, get your barf bags ready! Because here is Snow White: Conservative Values Edition: quote:Conservative media company Daily Wire is making its own live action adaptation of the Brothers Grimm fairytale, Snow White, called Snow White And The Evil Queen. https://deadline.com/2023/10/daily-wire-snow-white-movie-youtuber-brett-cooper-watch-1235574937/

Wait, the Daily Wire is doing an adaptation of the Pendragon Cycle? As in the “historical” King Arthur novels? Oh no…. I actually really love those books, at least the first three. They’re definitely super Christian but I think the author had enough nuance (at least compared to the Daily Wire’s audience) and genuine reverence for Celtic myth that modern online conservatives would probably denounce them as woke Satanic works. Also the main characters are definitely not women so I really don’t know who she’s going to play as the ‘lead.’

With a title like that I'm immediately picturing the wal-mart DVD bargain bin confusing grandma level production that if anything is probably giving them too much credit for how it's gonna turn out.

You know, for all the outrage Ben Shapiro put out about Barbie, the movie he's probably most pissed at is Sound of Freedom and the conservatives who aren't on his payroll who worked out how to actually make money from moving pictures.Carpet posted:Bentkey, a name that screams "suitable YouTube channel for kids" They have a Bluey knock off.
