New Asylum movie is someone building a monster out of parts of other monsters, so the classic public domain monsters team up to take him and it down.

Yeah, that was very much from the perspective of “not marketable = bad”, but fortunately that’s completely irrelevant to me. I’ll be shocked if it makes its budget back, but does Coppola even care about that in the first place? The dude’s 84, he might as well blow all his money on making whatever weird poo poo he wants before he dies.

Freaky Friday 2: Freak Harder is a go, with Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan (most-likely) returning.

quote:

The studio has tapped Nisha Ganatra, who most recently helmed episodes of Hulu miniseries Welcome to Chippendales, to direct a sequel to its 2003 family comedy Freaky Friday, giving the long-promised project momentum and putting it on track for a summer shoot in Los Angeles.

Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan, who starred in the original, are in negotiations to reprise their roles as the mother and daughter combo who find themselves switching bodies and lives.

I would take the opinion of a NYT journalist with a grain of salt, but I do like Jamelle Bouie and his movie reviews (highly recommend his podcast Unclear and Present Danger on 90s political thriller movies) so willing to now upgrade my thoughts on Civil War to cautious optimism.

One thing that kept coming up was the inplausibility of a scenario where California, Florida, and Texas team up to rebel. What's not been mentioned is that it's a three sided war. Implying it's liberal vs conservative vs federal.

Feel the same way about Bougie but this is exactly what I wanted out of the movie so I'm hyped.

Matt Zoller Seitz was fairly positive on Civil War, and he's a smart cookie as far as I can tell.

(vague spoilers)

His review implies that CA and TX are teamed up together though, with Florida as a separatist group, which he argues makes some sense if you think about CA tipping conservative thanks to the influence of groups like Silicon Valley libertarians and Yes California.

Texas is far closer to tipping blue than California turning red, but in any such scenario the entire northeast is an entire blue wall.

This discourse has been done to death, but cali and Texas do tend to be the perennial "maybe we gonna secede nyah" states, and it isn't exactly out of the realm of possibility that they'd team up to support each other's attempt. It's a little simple to imagine that they would both be simply raging expressions of their most popular political party's ideologies. Hard nosed politics beats electoral jockeying, especially in war. The very anti communist USA teamed up with the USSR in world war 2, and even the historic civil war saw anti-slavery England supporting the CSA.

Not hard to imagine Texas or California declaring succession and then the other following suit.

I've been mostly avoiding spoilers but everything so far that I've seen indicates that the film isn't that interested in mapping onto current american political divides (or at least not the big red Vs blue ones), even purposefully avoiding it. Maybe it's like one of those films in a generic foreign conflict, but in the USA so that it can't be dismissed as something that happens elsewhere

With everything we've heard about its politics, I think it's a pretty safe bet that the movie contains zero details about the reason it started.
