RUMOR CONTROL...THESE ARE THE FACTS

[Captain Russ]

I figured that was a given in my response but I understand how it sounds like I was saying "fuck the story, gimme FX". Only Skull Island has any characters I gave a shit about. I couldn't tell you ONE person from that shitty Godzilla 2 flick.

I actively rooted for Kong to step on every cardboard cutout in that movie.

And I agree that tossing aside Cranston and his wife for the young dickheads was a horrible decision that hamstrung the entire rest of the film.

YOU SHOW JOHN C. REILLY SOME RESPECT. The rest not so much.

[Abraham Smashington]

Actually, scratch that. I also love Sam Jackson in this. He's so over the top.

[Abraham Smashington]

But again, they're giant monster movies. Give me a reason to give a shit about the humans is fine. Focusing on the home lives of the humans more than the monsters is not.

Even he was treated like a joke as soon as he showed up as the older pilot.

The half assed Hell in the Pacific opening would have been a much better framework to use than the one they went with.

[Abraham Smashington]

for fucking sure man. That I totally agree with.

[Captain Russ]

I just want something competent with a consistent tone that doesn’t undercut itself for once.

wahhhhhhhhh babby cranky

[Abraham Smashington]

you and me both buddy.

[Timothy225]

no matter what, a giant monster movie should focus more on the monsters and less on the humans overall in my opinion. These aren't art house flicks. They're stupid giant monster movies.

THIS. A thousand times THIS. It's why I tend to fast forward to the monster fights in repeat viewings, as I honestly don't give two shits about why humans are doing human shit when there's giant monsters fucking shit up. Unless a human is driving a huge fucking robot to fight a monster, or is turning into Ultraman and going old school ECW on a giant fucking lizardsaurus that shoots lasers out of it's ass, I ain't interested in what the humans are doing.

Welp, the new Bond and GB flicks have moved AGAIN until next October. At this point it seems pointless especially with the news that most of us won't even get a vaccine until summer of 2022 at this point.

Also, Nolan having a tantrum about his movies and theaters is the best/worst thing ever. Shut the fuck up and stop being a spoiled bitch. If you want people to see your shit right now theaters aren't the way. If you want to wait until theaters are opened back to normal capacity then do it but shut the fuck up about it. No movie is worth getting covid for. Unless it's a Hackers reboot with Jonny Lee Miller now playing The Plague.

OK. I'm listening...

Zero Cool became what he hated.....a corporate goon

Let's see how bad rewrites, COVID, mergers and everything else warps this bow.

  Spoiler: The new slate of shit 

Spider 3 = Unintentional Ghostbusters references
Multiple everybody.
Bearded Tobey as Older Spidey
Zendaya takes an out
Molina ain't Raimi Ock
The Multiverse is going to be around for a bit.

The Marvels - Read Secret Invasion and the Ewing Ultimates run and you got the gist of this one.

She Hulk - Rapidly becoming the show that has my attention.
Another deep dive into Ewing's Hulk work by way of Shulkie.

Doc 2 - Shuma Gorath
Kids are saved by Wanda, but fucks everything up
Mordo is helping her.

Moon Knight
Hearing strong strong talk that Ethan Hawke is playing Dracula now.

Black Widow
Mostly the same, outside of adding back in scenes that were going to be cut because then Falcon show won't make sense without them.

What IF
Marvel Zombies will have the biggest impact coming out of the show.

Loki Season 2
See above.

Book of Boba
Olyphant, Ming-Na and Burr are supposed to be in it. 3 episodes hitting in December.

Ant Man 3
Movie got rewritten so much that I have my doubts if the all the cast has the script

Eternals
Movie test screener leaked the whole thing online back in Feb. It's still widely available and 100% legit.

No Time to Die
Mostly the same, but that ending makes it the last Craig Bond. Hell, it does 2 things. Either gives Bond over to Lynch to do a Black Female Bond or causes them to do a series reset.

The Batman
I swear I wrote this out elsewhere. Trying to find it to copy and paste over.

Troy: can you expand upon Bond? Do you know the whole movie?

[Anderson]

Troy: can you expand upon Bond? Do you know the whole movie?

I know enough and it has a definite feel to it.

  Spoiler: Bond 

This is it for Craig.

They will ride the Incel noise over Lynch for awhile to cover the fact that this movie isn't going to hit right.
Really not liking how it plays on paper.
