Lionsgate wants ‘John Wick’ cinematic universe starting with ‘Ballerina’, and I’m in
John Wick cinematic universe? Guess what! I’m a fucking fraud! I’m going to pivot from my usual shit-bombing of proposed cinematic universes and push my chips *all fucking in* on this one! I’m a fraud! I don’t care! Cause I fucking love John Wick, and Ballerina sounds fucking rad.
‘Wonder Woman 2’ officially dropping December 13, 2019, but where that Jenkins news srsly
Wonder Woman 2 has an official release date. December 13, 2019. Which is awesome, and shit. But as the Justice League trailer reminded us over the weekend, a DCU movie ain’t shit without a competent director. So, like, can we get official confirmation that the director of the *only* good DCU movie will be returning for its sequel?
‘The Shape of Water’ Trailer: Del Toro Returns With Merman Love Story (And It Looks Great)
Saw this trailer a couple of weeks ago before…Spider-Man: Homecoming? And, it looks wonderful.
Daniel Craig returning for ‘Bond 25’ because nothing inspires like truck loads of cash
Daniel Craig, who previously swore he would rather die than play Bond again, is playing Bond again. What could be the inspiration? I’m…I’m guessing: shit loads of cash.
‘Justice League’ reshoots costing $25 million, and Superman is filming his scenes with a mustache he isn’t allowed to shave
A new Justice League trailer dropped this weekend at SDCC, and it was a mixed bag. The first minute or so intelligently focused on pop culture phenom Wonder Woman, featuring a tone quite similar to her movie’s. However, after that, the trailer segued into what you’d expect from a Zack Snyder affair. You know, muted-ass palette, dumpster fires burning everywhere, stilted dialogue, overwrought CGI crap. The former segment is either the result of these reshoots or *what* they’re aiming for in them. So, it makes the extensiveness of these reshoots super intriguing. What will they be able to achieve with them? How much credit should Whedon get? And obviously, can he save this fucking movie?
‘Spawn’ movie officially happening, with creator Todd MacFarlane directing
I’ve sort of created a cottage industry of negative stakes that I end up being wrong about here at OL. You could spin it as me being a naysayer, or spin it as me being open to being wrong in the long run. Either way, the idea of Todd MacFarlane directing a new Spawn movie does very, very little for me.
‘Captain Marvel’ to be set in 1990s with Skrulls as the villains, and I’m torqued
Man. I’m a sucker for period pieces. And the Skrulls. And Captain Marvel. So the Marvelous Carol Danvers’ first movie is shaping up to play right to a litany of my weaknesses.
‘Justice League’ Trailer: Something is coming…namely way more Wonder Woman
New Justice League trailer! Featuring, thankfully, a fucking fuckload of Wonder Woman. In case you were wondering where all those reshoots were going, it seems pretty evident from this trailer. All the Diana. Because she rules, and maybe this movie will rule, I fucking hope it rules.
‘The Flash’ movie is going to adapt that wild ass ‘Flashpoint’ storyline which rebooted the DC Comics universe
I thought the wild ass DC mega event Flashpoint was pretty whatever, because I’m lukewarm at best on Geoff Johns But, the news that that the Flash movie is going to adapt said storyline? Equal parts bonkers, and impressive. So many questions. Like, are they already rebooting their cinematic universe? Phasing out Bat-Fleck? Or will it be a casual adaptation? Is it going to be GrimDark? I’m intrigued.
‘Wonder Woman 2’ officially announced but where that Patty Jenkins confirmation tho
We all fucking *knew* Wonder Woman 2 was going to be a thing, with the original crushing ass at the box office. What most of us herbs are wondering, though, is whether Patty Jenkins is going to be coming back for the sequel. So yeah, cool, neat confirmation. But, can we get her confirmed as onboard? Please?
