It probably has as much to do with Zaslav wanting to slash budgets as anything.
Sometimes when I'm sitting in class... You know, I'm not thinking about class, 'cause that would never happen. I think about kissing you. And it's like everything stops. It's like, it's like freeze frame. Willow kissage.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
There is that, too. Get younger, less well-known actors for cheaper than you'd have to pay the stars with several films under their belt. We'll have to see if they can nail the casting as well as Marvel did when they took that approach.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Short of finding a way to resurrect Christopher Reeve I can't imagine they'll be able to find someone as good at being Superman as Cavill is.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
If Cavill bailed on The Witcher specifically to make time for Superman, that kinda sucks for him.

Glass Onion has to be the timeliest movie ever. And in the span between its release in theaters and Netflix, even more so.

Watched Glass Onion last night: it was very fun! visually entertaining, and Janelle Monae was marvelous.

Just what I was thinking, Tom. Captures a really specific moment in time!
I really didn’t know what I wanted from it but boy howdy did it deliver

I mean, Chekov’s solid hydrogen fuel, that was beautiful

I knew the costumes would be nearly perfect, and yet still, I love that the costumes are nearly perfect in Glass Onion. I saw an interview with the costume designer where she talked about working on Edward Norton’s costumes with him, and how he knew that type of person. And I have loved Kathryn Hahn since Jordan’s Crossing, so I feel like I get to say “I told you so” for her whole career since. But seriously, the design of it is SO GOOD.
