    It's perfectly ok to want a "man's movie" 

     

    For Bond to be uncompromising. my concern is that whatever secondary female character there is will have an inflated role in the post-MeToo era. She will take it to the man and get the upper hand on Bond in some way. As a father of daughters, I want them to grow up in a world where they are considered equals to men. But I also don't want progressive messaging shoved down my throat. Many scenes in Captain Marvel were like that...really hammering home the Female Power element. Took me out of the movie. Again, agree with the overall thrust but also appreciate subtlety.  

    If you want your daughters to grow up in a world where they are considered equals to men, you yourself need to change the perception first with real efforts. The best way to do it is to go see movies with progressive messages with your daughters, given that movie is probably the most powerful medium right now. 

    You can't eat your cake and have it too. In other words, you need to make some sort of sacrifice for your daughters. Just imagine what she would think if she knew that 007 was actually not the "privilege of men".

    Make a new spinoff or character as a female...

     

    However this is like remaking the Iron Man movies with a female...

     

     

    The issue is not the gender but the whole personality of Iron man is around being a 'alpha male type'

    Dude, it is time to let the whole "alpha male" thing die. It has a disgusting smack of chauvinism. Son, we are living in a new age.

    I am so excited for Avatar 2. The underwater sequence are going to be breathtaking. I don't see a scenario where it goes below 2B.

     

    My prediction is around 3-3.5B. If Endgame can reach 2.76B with such ER. Avatar 2 can easily surpass that. 

     

    Beside by 2021, ER maybe better than today. James Cameron is one man army. 

    What !? :wintf:

    Headed to San Diego Comic Con.

     

    https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/arnold-schwarzenegger-showcase-terminator-dark-fate-at-comic-con-1222177

     

    Stars Linda Hamilton, Natalia Reyes, Mackenzie Davis, Gabriel Luna and Diego Boneta as well as director Tim Miller are also expected to hit the stage in Hall H.

     

    Arnold Schwarzenegger will be back at San Diego Comic-Con (SDCC).

    The actor will make the trek for Paramount and Skydance’s Terminator: Dark Fate panel, which will be held July 18 in the cavernous Hall H.

    Will Jimmy Boy be also there as well? Or is he busy filming blue people?

    This is the second ceremony; they eloped in Vegas in May after some awards show, Diplo livestreamed it on his Instagram. It got huge publicity then, maybe it boosted the Jonas Brothers song some more (though Sucker had already gone number one) and gave Sophie Turner a bigger name as a celebrity, because Game of Thrones was at peak publicity regardless. Certainly didn't help Dark Phoenix...or maybe it did, and it would have done worse without Sophie being more famous than ever.

     

    The wedding now is just for show and sentimental reasons, though Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra had like 12 celebrations and got a lot of attention for each one.

     

    Sophie Turner's magic has captured the hearts of a lot of Marvel fanboys. It shall do wonder again.

    The one good thing about almost all of the superhero movies from the past 20 or so years is that they have prevented their largely heterosexual fan base from mistaking their sexual desires with their box office analysis. I just didn’t expect Dark Phoenix to be the movie to mark that turn around. Wonder Woman seemed to have shocked them into mostly silence whereas Captain Marvel bravely reminded them of their incel status. Now Dark Phoenix has opened that Pandora’s Box and we will all suffer for it.

    People hate Dark Phoenix because they hate Sophie Turner. They hate her because they hate Sansa in Game of Thrones. 

     

    Sophie has beauty, charm and the ability to act. She does not deserve all the hate. By the way I don't let my sexual desires get mixed up with my box office analysis. You can be assured of that.

  7. I like to read and write poems. So here it is. 

     

    <Self-terminated>

     

    Franchises come and go.

    And the Terminator got self-terminated.

    With the trailer, no need of Judgement Day.

    The movie is already sentenced to death.

    Let it rest in 1991.

    But Greed said no.

    Milk it to death, so say they.

    Come Dark Fate, gone are fans.

    People ask for Salvation 

    But the answer is the eternal recurrence of Genisys.

    Where does it all end?

    So I command, Rise.

    Rise of the machines.

    Rise of ruthless critique.

    Rise of the fandom and go against all incompetence.
