Spidey Freak

Ngl some of these Little Monsters are SPICY. Someone tried to shade Gaga on Twitter by saying Margot remained untouched so one of LG's minions promptly replied saying the only thing untouched were the Birds of Prey tickets 😭😭 The original account ended up deleting their tweet

The original plan was to give Maguire and Garfield much bigger roles in NWH but Maguire held out for such a long time that they had to limit them only to the third act. If things had gone according to the initial plan, maybe Kirsten would have gotten a call.

*Expectations before the trailer came out

I keep forgetting about that movie's existence. Doubt the lean schedule will increase interest for it. There's only so much Ryan Reynolds people can take in a single summer.

The hierarchy of DC Universe says hi

I knew it wouldn't be as polarizing as some folks insisted it would be but I still thought there would be a 75:25 Like/Dislike ratio. But THIS? Is insane.

Strike delays otherwise Deadpool would have been the opener. As it now stands, this is the second time the stars have aligned for a perfect release schedule for an animated movie starring Chris Pratt. A 2.5 month break between KFP4 and Garfield and Apes is the only thing to qualify as a "family" blockbuster since GxK

Imagine if we get a Marvel vs. DC, Swiftie vs. Little Monster, Dazzler vs. Harley Quinn showdown for Best Original Song on Oscar night. Ratings gonna go through the roof with everyone tuning in

If this chad shows up then Joker gonna spiral/pull a Riddler and take it to the incel boards on 8chan

People wanting Batman in this franchise need to be careful what they wish for. Todd gonna make all those smartass Twitter jokes come true by depicting Bruce as a super narcissistic Elon Musk type who goes one step further to uphold the oppressive structure by running around beating up the impoverished and mentally ill

Hold up, let's just hope for a BO breakout first Ahm... have you actually seen CMBYN numbers?? Lol this is easily passing it even if it has a less than average performance

Cats was before she entered her Super Saiyan mode I saw Swifties actively boycotting Amsterdam because of DOR Having said that, just a cameo won't make or break anything. A real BOP is needed with an excellent video.

HOLY SHIT, the latest episode of X-Men 97 was fire. If the MCU's version of the mutants will be anywhere as good as it's on this show, then Marvel's back firing on all cylinders.

Yeah I edited my original post. It's just that 1995 was very unique in that a very popular medium that was at the pinnacle of its success was instantly cut down because of an unfortunate letdown that happened at the same time as a brand new medium put out a great film. That obviously led to a decline in interest for the successive hand-drawn films (ugh, what could have been if Hunchback had preceeded Pocahontas). But things won't be as extreme as 1995 so Disney needn't worry about taking creative risks. In fact, I'd say Pocahontas wasn't a risk as it was Disney doubling down on everything that THEY thought made them a critical and awards darling at the time.

Unfortunately for hand drawn films, the far superior Toy Story happened in the same year as the terrible Pocahontas which led to people subconsciously assuming CGI was an evolved medium than hand drawn. The stars aligned horribly for hand drawn as the drop in quality between TLK and Pocahontas was much worse than an Endgame and Black Widow and even worse than an Endgame and Quantummania. A much stronger film than Pocahontas would have put up a better fight for 2D films.

It's not the pre-teaser but the timing. Late evening Pacific drops have it harder than early morning drops like the pre-teaser as Asia is already sleeping and it's too late for some of Europe as well. Let's wait for the full 24 hours report IMO. This is obviously gigantic but there are still a few more hours for people getting back from work to view it for the very first time and drive up the ## even more.

These numbers sound insane

Sexism exists ofc and I feel Gaga could have asked for more (unless she has backend deals) but TBF she REALLY wants that Oscar and Phillips is handing a golden opportunity to her on a silver platter which many may not post the Gucci snub which I feel was the elitist Academy telling her to stick to her lane (ditto for JLo and the Hustlers snub). Gaga might even stand a chance to be a double nominee/winner on the same night if she is credited for Best Original Song. So I feel this film and role are doing equally as much for her as she's doing for them. OTOH no Phoenix, no movie. He already got HIS Oscar so he has far less inclination to return, so of course he can ask for whatever he wants.

Au contraire, she seemed to be right about the scrapped Middle East subplot too. Credit where credit is due. And atleast she put the idea out about Gunn taking over DC. She even takes a poll around the 17.45 mark in the vid.

Maya get it together girl

Even a twink's gotta eat

Lol if I remember correctly I think she found the real-life scenario around the film to be uplifting with so many incelviduals sympathizing with Joker and making him "feel seen". So I guess you may still be right.

But the Gunn announcement happened immediately on the Monday after BA OW. Black Adam didn't even get a proper chance tbh In that video I posted, Grace is literally talking about a Gunn/Rock power struggle and she even semi-titled the video Dwayne Johnson vs. James Gunn. She posted the video on Tuesday BEFORE BA release

THR put this article out on the Monday BEFORE BA came out. Scoopers then declared it was a power struggle (16:30 onwards) so it didn't come out of nowhere. We just didn't know that The Rock would be COMPLETELY shut out

There were rumors before Black Adam came out that Dwayne Johnson and James Gunn had competing visions for DC. Johnson apparently wanted to build up to a Black Adam centric Justice League/Suicide Squad crossover which is why he got Cavill back onboard and why Superman was working with Amanda Waller in the BA stinger. Apparently she was getting JL together to take down Black Adam and possibly the SS members who survived and defected at the end of TSS would side with BA. However, Johnson's rivals got the better of him Succession style, had Gunn appointed, announced his hiring on the Monday after BA release, confirmed Cavill was out and then proceeded to put out a hit piece against The Rock in The Wrap sometime later. The first paragraph is mostly rumors (tho it's interesting that Waller and Superman working together in BA collaborates with them) but we saw everything in the second paragraph play out in public. Which is why I'm not entirely sure this wasn't a big cluster fuck decision. Will the rebooted Gunnverse really be more profitable than letting the Rock plan out his JLvsSS movie? 🤷‍♂️
