RUMOR CONTROL...THESE ARE THE FACTS

[Abraham Smashington]

hahahaha. Good. Now recast and bring me someone fun back to this franchise. Craig sucks.

[FilmNerdJamie]

OK, Anderson . Go ahead and spoil NO TIME TO DIE for me.

It opens overseas this weekend. If you want to be as unspoiled as possible, stay off Social Media till you see it. This will be blabbed aloud ASAP.

But since you asked...

  Spoiler: LEGIT SPOILERS - DO NOT OPEN UNLESS YOU JUST WANT TO KNOW!!!!!!!! 

No question. No fucking around. Bond dies.

And the last line is even "His name was Bond. James Bond." Credits.

And yes there is a "James Bond Will Return" caption. At the very very end. After all the studio logos and everything.

Red Death was an underutilized version of the EEEEEvil Batmen in that Metal run. Definitely my favorite of those edgelords designs/concepts.

[Anderson]

dope. Maybe that's the suit we saw recently then in regards to the Flash stuff?

I believe so. They're going to drop the info sooner than later, because tons of leaks are breaking out.

[Anderson]

Got a bunch of new spoilers in and a ton of clarification for Flash.

  Spoiler: Some basics while I'm busy 

X-Men in MCU is leaning super fucking heavy on recent run. Moira McTaggart has a Groundhog Day event during the Snap across the Multiverse. Finds Xavier in main reality, gives him the rundown of what can happen, he forms X-Men.

Villain in Flash isn't Reverse Flash, it's Red Death.

What is Red Death? A Multiverse Batman who can use the Speed Force. So, imagine Batman at supersonic speed. He now wants to collapse the Multiverse into one reality and is picking off other Batmen and Flash. Everything else holds the same. Just villain clarification.

Also, Lynda Carter is in it.

[Abraham Smashington]

Elijah Wood has been cast in that remake of The Toxic Avenger as the big bad guy. I still don't understand the thought process of this remake but gimme a trailer with Dinklage as Toxie and I'll form an opinion hah.

[Anderson]

Well it sounds like EON will control Bond but Amazon gets to distribute. And I'm sure that Bezos will want to chat with EON about next steps and such.

EON controls Bond outright because MGM never owned it. Not even a point of contention. But, now more and more people with outstanding deals are coming out and saying MGM didn't have the go ahead for this deal. Chief among them being Warner Discovery.

So, this is going to be a fun legal fight in the Summer/Fall.

[Anderson]

Yeah, EON since the mid 60s has had an agreement similar to what Lucasfilm had with SW and Indy.

Basically, the studio gets distribution, but everything else belongs to the production.

EON controls Bond and decides who gets to distribute.

[Abraham Smashington]

EON or whomever owns the rights are bitches about it from what I gather. Like lots of rules and shit about what can and can't happen with the character. I could be completely wrong though.

[Matt]

Bingo. Universal is already working on the pickup.

Not following. Are you saying that Bond is not part of the sale and will not go to Amazon?

[BillyG]

Bingo. Universal is already working on the pickup.

That sucks, because there's big chunks of Bond I've never seen and was looking forward to easily watching the Moore stuff and rewatching Casino Royale and Skyfall a million times.

[Anderson]

  Spoiler: Black Widow spoilers if anyone still cares. 

2 Taskmasters. Chick and fake out dude.
Taskmaster is Knock Off Stark Tech in a Widow style body.

William Hurt in the credits as well as Barton Family Memorial for BW.

Julia Louis Dreyfuss scenes that were going to get cut prior to Falcon are now a whopping 80 seconds of screen time at last count.
