'Sleeper'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
Kind of interesting, kind of navel-gazey essay on intersectionality from Film Crit Hulk: [link]
There is, however, one throw-away line in the essay:
people who actually make it in Hollywood come from more wealth than even those at fancy university (we rarely talk about this).
Do you think that is really true?
Are they talking out behind the scenes people like directors, producers, and studio heads? Because, for example, Tom Cruise, Jennifer Lawrence, and Samuel L. Jackson all come from fairly humble beginnings.
Deadpool 2's Cable doesn't have enough pouches.
(Not surprisingly, about half the comments are "needs more pouches").
I liked the comment that said his feet should be *just* out of frame for the entire movie.
I'm just worried that it's Sony at the helm, as they've had a crap track record of movies.
Who exactly decided it was a good idea to let Guy Ritchie direct a movie about King Arthur?
Did that finally come out?
Came and went. Flopped.
Maybe it'll be Netflixable just for Charlie Hunnam appreciation.
The thing is, an adaptation of the Arthur story transposed into the modern day with the "kingdom" being a British criminal operation could have been a decent new take on an old story. The actual Sixth Century AD legendary characters speaking and acting like modern London thugs, not so much.
What I want to know is who greenlit a $175 million budget for this turkey?
