Paid Members Hannibal Scorch Posted August 3, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted August 3, 2022 Batgirl movie will no longer be released (digitalspy.com) Absolutely mad story that after spending $90 million on this that it will be another film condemned to the vault of never to be released films. They also scrapped a spin off from Scoob! so thats around $150 million they are just writing off as a tax loss. Seems utter madness to me but yet another example of how Warner Bros, even under new management, are still an absolute mess of a studio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr_Danger Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 That Flash film is never coming out, bar short clips in documentaries/Crime Watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Factotum Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 They may as well just cut together all the clips of Keaton as Batman and release that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a story doing the rounds that said they were re-editing the film so Keatons Batman was the main focus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidB6937 Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Finally saw new Thor. Might be the biggest disappointment I've ever had with a Marvel film. What the fuck was that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely dreadful. I'm usually pretty easy going with these things. The comedy usually hits the spot and they generally get the balance right. This was just cringeworthy from start to finish. Nothing was funny. Someone clearly told them they could say "shit" because they did it about a hundred times. They randomly shoved in some emotional stuff but that missed the mark completely because they'd say "shit" again two seconds later. I can't believe that group of people.. most of which were involved in Ragnarok (which felt like a genius movir at the time and even more now).. could deliver something that bad. I genuinely can't work out how most of it made it past quality checks or whatever it is they do. It's like one of those movies that feels like someone came in and fucked it up only I don't think anyone actually did.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Danger Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 I said Thor was fine and I stand by that but Taika Waititi feels a bit found out after it. You can’t deny that Spoiler Having the Daniel Baldwin of the Hemsworth brothers playing Thor was funny though.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CavemanLynn Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 I think it's telling that Waititi said he didn't want to do another one after Ragnarok, then did a massive U-turn. The whole of Love and Thunder felt like he'd just pointed cameras at two actors in the Volume then fucked off. Marvel clearly saw even more dollar signs after Ragnarok and wanted more of the same, but Taiki thought fuck it, fine, I'll take the money. Plot points by committee, lip service to "themes" and "inclusion", a threadbare script and zero editing, temporarily masked by the ad company doing a brilliant last minute trailer. Save Bale hamming it up wonderfully in a localised IG filter, and fat Russell Crowe's casual racism, a flat slog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members DEF Posted August 18, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted August 18, 2022 (edited) Really liked She-Hulk ep1. It was a lot of fun and thank god they Spoiler did away with the origin story within the first 5 minutes. Was dreading an hour of boring build to one shot of She-Hulk ala Moon Knight. The CG has definitely improved a bunch but I actually thought it was Spoiler Hulk that stank up the uncanny valley.  Edited August 18, 2022 by DEF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanchiz Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 (edited) Im still not decided on She-Hulk yet to be honest... Spoiler Was quite looking forward to watching it, as I know nothing of the character, and it seems more connected to the films than some of the other recent streaming output, however.... I thought the CG on She-Hulk looked really dodgy. In contrast to DEF above, I thought Hulk looked fine. I think that what the problem is, is that Hulk couldnt really be real. People dont look like that, and so a CG representation of that works, but with She-Hulk, she just looked like a big green woman, no ridiculous muscles or body shape, and as such the CG doesnt look right, especially her hair. I genuinely think they should have done this Lou Ferrigno style, and had a different muscular actress painted green being She-Hulk. If she needed to look bigger then use some perspective tricks. Practical effects would have worked so much better I think. CG on her face if you need/want to Also, the 4th wall breaks annoyed me. Ive heard since that its a thing from the comics, but that doesnt mean it needs shoehorned in. Weve already established the supposed Marvel world, and that it's 'real', so who is she talking to? Leave that stuff to Deadpool. Also, the ending annoyed me. Her cousin spent years on the run hiding his identity, presumably to avoid getting chopped up by the US army and avoid killing innocents. But she drops her identity at the drop of a hat, just because someone burst through the wall like the Kool-Aid man from Family Guy. I dont think she was even after She-Hulk as no-one is supposed to know who she is, or that she even exists. I dont know who the woman that burst in is either, apart from her being on T4, but she looked like the young bucks sister to me, look at this outfit: I might be too quick to judge though, and next week it will be revealed that she was too hasty showing off her true self, but Im not sure, they seemed quite keen to show that she was 'better' and more savvy than Bruce Banner. Didnt want to be so negative though, Ill keep watching. Spoiler One more thing, I really want Abomination to recreate this at some point: Â Edited August 19, 2022 by alanchiz Put things in spoiler tags Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members chokeout Posted August 19, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted August 19, 2022 I liked it a lot more than I thought I would and the CGI was far better than I expected. There is a hint of uncanny Valley with She Hulk but that's more to do with her having more human features than Hulk. 1 hour ago, alanchiz said: Im still not decided on She-Hulk yet to be honest...  Hide contents  Also, the 4th wall breaks annoyed me.

The Deadpool 4th wall breaks you mentioned literally nicked it from She Hulk and it's as much a trademark of her as being big and green. The identity reveal is by all accounts the whole plot of the the series and about super powered people showing up in that world. As far as her not running and hiding like Banner did. We aren't in a world where he's hunted by the military anymore. We're in a world where he has an icecream named after him, kids ask for his autograph in diners and they have a stage musical. That's the one big complaint a lot of people have about the MCU, literally no one has a secret identity.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
