It surprises me that DC (to my knowledge) hasn't ever rebooted Green Arrow into a street-level Daredevil-esque character instead of a billionaire superhero like Batman. I feel like it would fit his character & Robin Hood motif better to have him be a normal guy vs the system.

I desperately need Tom Hanks and Playtone to hop back on that In the Garden of Beasts movie they announced 5 years back.

I think Daredevil might have my favorite fight scenes of any show or movie. It dances perfectly on the line of Matt being a total badass while also showing him struggle/getting hurt in a level of vulnerability seldom seen in action movies.

I've always found it funny that The Thing's love interest is blind so she doesn't see how ugly he is, as though she can't feel that he's made of rock.

Why are we still writing female leads whose only purpose in a movie is to be horny and throw herself at the main character? I thought we gave up this archetype in the 90s.

So happy (and pleasantly surprised) Nosferatu got a Best Cinematography nom. What a gorgeous movie.

Oh hell yeah! As a huge fan of fantasy I always want more big budget fantasy movies, and to have one that's based on a great book that moves away from the stereotypical Tolkien-ish setting has me STOKED. AND THAT CAST 🤯

I feel like too many aspiring screenwriters (myself included) focus too much on film as their primary influence and the result is a bunch of cookie cutter copies of classic movies.

I really have no idea why they didn't make a Wreck-It Ralph game where you could play Fix-It Felix Jr., Sugar Rush, and Hero's Duty.

Watching Harley Quinn and it honestly surprises me DC hasn't totally committed to turning Poison Ivy into a Punisher style anti-hero at this point. I feel like people would up eat up a series based around an eco superhero taking down corporations killing the environment.

If you're wondering how good Wicked is, when the credits rolled the 19 year old frat boy behind me declared "yo, chat, that was peak".

Fun fact, Christopher Nolan was once considered to direct Troy. So this feels like a weird alternate universe sequel. Thrilled to see what Nolan’s take on a mythical epic will be.

Does anyone know if they tweaked the audio for the Interstellar re-release? Because this time around I could hear all of the dialogue perfectly and followed the story/character dynamics so much easier than on first viewing in 2014.

Boy TV shows are named “Crunch”, the guy’s name is John Crunch, he’s the biggest man we could find, and he kicks people who threaten his daughter Girl TV shows are named “The Worst Good Hurt”, it’s 6 women with secrets and unrealistic wigs who would never hang out in real life

My first R-rated movie was Ridley Scott's Kingdom of Heaven. It left me with a deep and abiding love for historical epics and still remains one of my favorite films despite its theatrical cut's flaws.

I'd also highly recommend Hoopla. Between the two library apps I can find most books on audiobook and don't have to bother with Audible.

Bought this for my nephews. It's based on my favorite Jurassic Park scene where Wayne Knight hops on his motorcycle and hunts raptors.

At some point, if all goes well, you stop taking pride in arcane knowledge about niche topics and you start taking pleasure in sharing your passion with as many people who are obviously interested as possible. Our time here to learn and live is brutally short. Don't keep gates. Hold them open. Wide.

I once queried an agent and he told me my script sounded too much like a movie coming out later in the year that didn't have a trailer yet. At the time I was embarrassed but looking back I'm like "dude, I wrote this two years ago. I'm ahead of the trends! Hire me!"

Kinda weird that found footage movies have dried up & still have all these gimmicks when literally every single person in America now has a camera on them at all times and constantly film things. Every movie could be a found footage movie at this point.
