‘Wonder Woman’ has become the 5th highest grossing superhero movie of all time
I’m torn between being really happy that Wonder Woman is making all sorts of fucking money, and wanting to point that the movie is fun and enjoyable, but absolutely falls apart at the end. I, I guess I just successfully expressed both sentiments.
‘La La Land’ director bringing musical TV series to Netflix, also casts Jon Bernthal in his Neil Armstrong Biopic
Here’s a twofer of recently dropped Damien Chazelle news, for those who frequent the Space-Ship Omega and haven’t heard. First up, dude got himself an eight-episode series on Netflix. Second up, dude cast Jon Bernthal in his upcoming Neil Armstrong movie. A fucking twofer!
Andy Muschietti planning to direct ‘It’ sequel prior to making ‘Robotech’
I’m pretty fucking torqued for It. Rendar’s surprised by my excitement, as I’ve sort of carved a niche for myself by kiddingly trolling Stephen King for years. But, I don’t know. Nostalgia plus a burgeoning love for horror has me excited. Apparently, apparently I’m not alone in my excitement. The movie is tracking very well, with a sequel almost all but guaranteed. A sequel which director Andy Muschietti intends on making prior to helming Robotech.
Nice.
Ben Affleck not starring in ‘The Batman’ according to a new report. Round and round we friggin’ go
Can we, just, like shit or get off the fucking Bat-Toilet at this point? Holy shit. Ben Affleck is yet again questionable to play Batman in his solo movie. This time the EchoChamber is reverberating about the possibility thanks to a report from the Hollywood Reporter.
WB wants Leonardo DiCaprio for that Joker spin-off movie. I feel like I should feel something but I don’t
WB wants Leonardo DiCaprio for that Joker spin-off movie they’re planning. The studio is planning to use DiCaprio’s friendship with BFF Martin Scorsese (who is producing the film) to land the White Whale. Is it gonna happen? Who the fuck knows. Would it be sort of dope? Sure. Am I as fatigued with superhero news as I am addicted to it? Especially DCU news? You fucking bet your ass.
Rumor: The Joker Origin movie will be “super dark” and “real” whatever the hell that means
Actually, we all know what “super dark” means in the DCU, don’t we? Grimdark angsty bullshit. Who knows. Maybe this movie will rule. It’s sunny out, I’m four Diet Dews deep, and my usual disdain for the DCU is simmering below the surface. It exists, but it can’t punch through.
This movie is going to suck.
Rumor: ‘Fantastic Four’ reboot based on unpublished Mark Millar children’s book. Go home Fox, you’re drunk
What the fuck are you doing, Fox. Like, can we just give the rights back to Marvel Studios at this point? Please? Jesus fucking Christ. This is a nonsensical idea if the book was written by anyone, let alone Mark Millar.
Joker and Harley Quinn Movie also in development, will be in the DCEU. What the hell is going on?
So, sweet fucking Christ. In the past day, the Slop Culture EchoChamber learned about a standalone Joker movie, starring someone other than Jared Leto, which will take place outside the DCEU. Then, we learned that the Ben Affleck-powered The Batman will also take place outside the DCEU. Now finally, we have learned that there’s a Joker and Harley Quinn movie in development, which does star Jared Leto, and will take place in the DCEU.
What the fuck is going on.
Affleck’s ‘Batman’ movie is not part of the DCEU, for whatever that’s worth
Ben Affleck’s The Batman is not going to be a part of the DC Extended Universe. A standalone, if you will. I’m fine with it, but I guess I don’t really fully understand what it means. Will there simply be no mention of the Snyder flicks? Will its narrative go so far as to deny or contradict developments in the DCEU? Who the fuck knows.
That said? All-in-all as they say, perhaps without hyphens? I think this is a good development. Allows Reeves and Affleck the ability to disregard whatever bullshit they want, and let’s be frank. Almost all of the fucking DCEU to this point has been that: bullshit.
‘Joker’ Origin Story movie being produced by Martin Scorsese for WB. I, I just can’t get excited about this guys, idfk
Martin Scorsese is producing a “hard boiled” Joker movie, or some shit. I don’t know why, but I just can’t conjure a fuck to give about this development. I’m tired of superhero flicks in general, and I’m certainly tired of all the ups and down of the fucking DCU.
