RUMOR CONTROL...THESE ARE THE FACTS

[Timothy225]

I'd think at this point if you saw Borat anywhere near you, you'd walk away or ignore him.

Borat 2 on Amazon just before the election. Jeff FAILING WASHINGTON POST Bezos trying to razz The Donald?!

[Abraham Smashington]

amazing.

Title renamed, release date bumped to Oct 23rd.
Was going to drop it in here yesterday, but waited.


And, Jamie...the family clinic scene is staying the movie.

  Spoiler: Also got my suspicions confirmed 

It's the pre COVID footage of What is America Season 2 mixed with a Borat story shot around what footage they could use.

New updated official title:



Borat Subsequent Moviefilm: Delivery of Prodigious Bribe to American Regime for Make Benefit Once Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan

No "Pornographic Monkey"?

No "Pornographic Monkey"?

Title couldn't get listed for sale by Amazon in certain territories. So, name change ordered.


But the film is registered under Porno Monkey title at WGA.

I need to keep my ass planted and working on stuff this weekend.


As such, anyone want spoilers?

[Matt]

Yes!

[Timothy225]

Spoilers? Oh, mais oui, bien sur!

[Anderson]

  Spoiler: Here goes it. 

The Batman - 6 villains


Riddler is more of a vigilante than a villain.
Court of Owls are the main movie villains.
They orchestrated the deaths of Martha and Thomas Wayne.
The people Riddler is killing are Owls that are directly abusing Gotham City.


He wants to get Batman to help him kill the Owl leadership.


Spider-Man 3 - Well, this is pretty much out of the bag at this point.


Multiverse like crazy. Benny C shoots this one first as Doc Strange, but chronologically this movie happens 3rd in the broken multiverse series.


WandaVision - Kat Dennings is an Agent of SWORD, same as Rambeau's kid. 6 pocket dimensions that Wanda manipulates. The SNAP created the mutant explosion across existence, not just Earth. Evan Peters isn't playing exactly whom everyone thinks he's playing. Baron Mordo at the very end.


Cap Marvel 2 - 4 heralds, Annihilation Wave preps a planet for Galactus to feast.


Supreme Intelligence commits suicide and destroys Hala rather than feed the Big G.


Kate Winslet, Keira Knightley up for roles. Johnny Depp turned down playing Michael Korvac in this one.


X-MEN - Because Depp signed a six movie deal to play Corsair. First movie opens on a flashback of Depp tying a parachute to kid Scott and Alex and tossing them out of a plane.


Thor Love and Thunder - Portman and Waititi won out. Jane Foster cancer plot is back in film. The more she's Thor, the more it kills her.


Bucky and Winter Soldier - Thunderbolts debut in this series. Yelena Black Widow is part of the team.



Loki - now being made to serve as Hiddleston's swan song in the MCU.

Ant Man 3 - script being rewritten again. Lovecraft Country Kang guy signed 9 pic deal.



That's all of the top of my head now. Even though I have the Spidey 3 treatment with the ties to Olivia Wilde's Spider-Woman movie. I'm expecting most of that to change even with production starting sooner than later.

[Matt]

Those spoilers are pretty wild, especially on Corsair. Totally right up that actor's range.

Can you expand on the Cancer plot? first I've heard about that.

Spoilers

  Spoiler: Comics! 

When Jane Foster becomes Thor in the comics, she has spent a chunk of time away from Thor. While he's off being The Unworthy Thor and using Stormbringer, Mjolnir finds Jane and chooses her as its next champion.


The problem is Jane is in chemo for breast cancer. So, she thrives when she's powered up as Thor. But changing back to Jane kills her chemo progress and makes her sicker.



So, it's stay as Thor all the time or have Mjolnir inadvertently kill you.

[Matt]

Cool, thanks. Honestly, I like that angle. It gives some real weight to what's going on.

Just curious: how were they able to woo Natalie back in the first place? I got the impression that she didn't care for her experiences on the prior films.

People fucking love Taika Waititi. They're going to use him to pull a lot of outside talent into his Star Wars project.


Plus, he shoots fast as fuck. How fast? I'm talking 1940s/1950s fast. Totally out of pace with modern directors.


Iger was against keeping that Jane plot point from before, so first script was written without and now they're adding it back.


They were going to ask him to help out with Spidey 3, but Thor 4 and SW project are supposed to be running back to back now.
