Movies In General

[Darrin]

^ I would be so down for that if they legit try to make it excellent. So many movies based on video games are garbage. 

[MasterXtreme]

So... that Gran Turismo movie is actually happening.  Gran Turismo, possibly one of the most iconic video game franchises in the world, now has a high production film to its name.

[Wolfwood]

^ Huh.  Not interested really, despite loving the game franchise.

Oops, thank you.

The FLASH is a Box Office Bomb.

Did anyone expect anything different when there are so many crummy Marvel films and Star Wars films?  Ever heard of overkill and money grabbing? In short, Warner Brothers new film, ‘The Flash’ Falls Down With $55M 3-Day Opening.  WB predicted $70M-$75M in 3-day expectations. 3-day projections just kept losing speed for this Andy Muschietti-directed movie.

People are getting sick of the constant super hero movies.  They are all the same.

[NostradamusTheSeer]

Also, announcing it literally a moment after the Flash's series finale was dumb. It's basically an untalented, disjointed rehash--Flashpoint meets Batman Beyond--treading the same ground done so much better on the CW series.  What next, drop a new animated Archie movie after Riverdale wraps?



Maybe a time-traveler from the future comes and whisks the wholesome fifties teens into 2023, where they experience wild culture shock? Actually, that's not far off from some of the stuff the comics actually did at one point....

[Silverwing]

^ Oh my.  They predicted the current age.

I've been watching the trend of Hollywood movies making less and less money year in and year out.  It's wonderful.

We also had the pandemic, that took a hit.

 But theaters as a whole have been fighting declines for about a decade now.

[Blurr]

Now the writers are on strike and the actors aren't far behind them. Hollywood is about to enter a period that can only truly be defined as, "A clusterfuck."

[Sniffles]

Hollywood is so out of touch and beyond the real reality anyways.  They need a good shake-up to come back to their senses.  They are so far up their own butts.

Oppenheimer looks good.
