  1. It might not be an origin story but the scenes at The Planet certainly make it look like he is just starting the job there. So it is not just picking up with Superman already known in the world.
  2. Darn straight! That trailer is the first one (for any movie) in a long time that made me look forward to seeing a movie.
  3. AI video has come a long long way, it has a much much much longer way to go.
  4. I don't have any idea what the tax break might be but the only thing more convoluted then royalties is the tax implications of Hollywood. The ability to claim a loss (and thus a tax break) based on needing to pay fees to companies wholly owned as a subsidiary is possibly involved somewhere...
  5. Did it get better? I watched the first episode and it was far too different from the books - and every change was for the worse.
  6. Streaming rights to actors appear to be based on the show being available to stream, at least partly. Not available to stream = no royalties to pay out. Personally I would have gone with a royalty per showing but with the distrust between studios and actors on those kinds of statistics I understand why that is not normal.
  7. My guess is that Willow is a one off that did not pan out. Taking out any of the Star Wars stuff could make a fan think all of the Star Wars stuff might be on the possible chopping block. Same for the Marvel stuff.
  8. I am not a fan of the character animation at all for this one.
  9. It might not be a great movie or even a good one(*) but I think the biggest problem for the Marvel movies is brand fatigue AND the switching out of the cast at the exact same time. (*) - I'm not the person who can judge these things, I only saw a bit of the movie where all the good guys were fighting each other and I couldn't even make it through that movie, on the other hand the D+ show with the current Captain America I thought was pretty good.
  10. What I "Yam" is garbage. I used to be all for having copyright expire but this has me rethinking that. (And the Winnie the Pooh and Mickey Mouse ones). Then again even talentless hacks have to make a living somehow.
  11. They are horror movies since it is the "thing" to turn old IP that just came into public domain into horror versions to make a quick buck. Putting any more thought into then that means putting more thought into it then the people that shovel this kind of stuff out.
  12. I'll be the odd man out to say it is straight up pandering and the deep fakes while decent were nothing special. Certainly not worth the seemingly never ending amount of time they were on screen with essentially nothing happening.
  13. I'm getting so old I don't remember "The Bad Guys" at all, or that it ever even existed...
  14. The point is that our idea of ethical is by no means universal.
  15. That first look image all by itself shows it will be stupid. As in that is a stupidly over long apparatus to fire a needle of some kind to deliver what appears to be some kind of drug. All that length does it make it more unwieldy. And a scope? Is that a joke?
