Good on him for doing so. Scorsese has to twerk for the streaming services at the moment to get funding. Fucking Scorsese! So if Nolan can leverage his power, then fair fucks to him. That's not quite what happened with The Irishman though. The original financiers dropped out because the budget was getting too big and were concerned that it would not recoup its huge costs at the box office. And they were almost certainly right. So Netflix stepped in and covered the still rising costs, Scorsese didn't have to "twerk" for anyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperBacon Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 Can people stop saying that Scorsese twerked. I love Marty and its conjuring up images I dont want to imagine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperBacon Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 Madness I know. Someone getting what they want after asking for it, and being happy with the outcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The statement from Disney also confirmed her Tower of Terror movie she was Executive Producing and starring in is back on. It was announced a night before the 50th anniversary of Walt Disney World opening, a day which has been sold out for months. Maybe this was a really elaborate way of getting tickets? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he was hoping for a fight to the death between Scarlett and Mickey Mouse or something. This was the only outcome that was ever coming. They're both smart enough to not drag it out.

Nope, but it was clear Disney from a legal perspective were fucked, and a legal court case would have changed how modern Hollywood works. She’d have won. But hey, I’m getting a Tower of Terror film and we may get some more Black Widow so swings and roundabouts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnKringler Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 It was never going to change modern Hollywood. She was gonna be paid to shut up and get more royalities and probably a cameo as Black Widow in Secret Wars. That's all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disney and the studios as a whole will not want this to set a legal precedent. I for one am shocked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
