    Rumor has it (unconfirmed of course) that Bruce Willis, while not officially diagnosed with dementia, has been going through some bad mental and memory issues over the past couple of years that could lead into something worse. Him doing cheap VOD action movies where he shows up on set for a day and gets a fat paycheck is probably the best he can do as an actor and helps support his family.

    I think there's something to this. In 2015 he was let go from Cafe Society and replaced with Steve Carrell because he couldn't remember his lines.

    I don’t think it’ll effect Aquaman. He had one throw away line in his movie about Steppenwolf. His adventure can still happen, he just wouldn’t have met the other Leaguers yet. 
     

    SS, BOP and TSS are also effected because Task Force X is never assembled in the first film due to Superman not dying. That means Harley was never free… though you can erase the first film and just say after BOP is when Harley was captured and TSS is the first time Task Force X assembles… guess we’ll see in November

    The scenes in Wonder Woman where she receives the photo from Bruce would have to go, as well.

    I really hope Europe isn't going into lockdown. That is beyond absurd and just flat out destructive - COVID is here to fucking stay but most people have been vaccinated so people need to start living their goddamn lives especially since it overwhelmingly kills the older. 

     

    Hindsight is 20/20, but the economic, political, and mental devastation COVID has caused in its wake was way too overblown.

    Unfortunately, the economic repercussions of the pandemic will be with us for a long time to come, especially if the lockdowns continue.

    While everyone is up in arms about Eternals, the disastrous performance of Spencer squeaks by unnoticed. But make no mistake, it's a disaster. The "oh but it's just an indie" excuse does not have merit. This is a movie about one of the most iconic and beloved figures of the last 50 years. It stars a name actress. Between critics swooning over it, months of  festivals/accompanying BA Oscar buzz, Neon's barrage of promoted tweets, Kristen Stewart strategically announcing her engagement on release week in a way that would have made the Kardashians proud, and a bullish near-1,000 screen count, this should have done at least $4-5M. 

     

    Another reminder that Twitter is far removed from the real world. 

     

    It's a terrible, terrible movie, even worse than Jackie. And Stewart isn't even that good in it; she looks the part but her efforts to ape Diana are desperately strained.

    Guess "diet and exercise" also explain the gigantic head and jaw growth as well. To be clear I'm not "shaming" anyone, just making the obvious observation that he's on HGH.

    Isn't it a given that actors who have to quickly bulk up for an action movie are administered a regimen of steroids?

    @Ipickthiswhiterose Great points and amen to It Chapter 2 reviews. The movie was a chore. Overlong, boring, not scary, choppy, etc just didn't come together on any level and even performances were uneven. Hader and Skarsgaard were good. The rest barely had anything to do but look bug eyed. But it got a pass not to drag the really good Chapter 1 down. 

    The conclusion to It is just very hard to film. The novel works because King is such a great story-teller.

    She said they're struggling with edit (probably make the story flows well), DS2 especially and that's one of the reasons for the delay, but she said so far is nothing to be afraid of, especially since they give time to correct some things instead of rushing it.

    It's blindingly obvious that Doctor Strange 2 is an overstuffed mess. WB better take care with Flash.

     

    Anyway, I'm honestly surprised by the response to Eternals. I truly thought the combo of Marvel, Zhao and DIVERSITY!!! would be catnip to critics. Surprised, and pleasantly so.
