  1. Lol On the plus side, this may free him up for Shazam. That needs a charismatic actor who is capable of making a manchild appealing. UNCLE is the only movie with comedic elements that I've seen Hammer in so I'm not sure whether he could pull it off.
  2. Foiled by MARTHA! The pathos write themselves. Hmm, the older GL rumor would kill Armie Hammer's chances then.
  3. I think it will be tweaked a bit. It may resemble the style of the Super Best Friends Forever series of shorts from the same creator (Lauren Faust).
  4. They should make Wacky Races too. That has the potential to be their Cars in terms of merch, but creatively superior. I think WB is wondering whether to use Legion in live action or animation. They should go for Teen Titans or Young Justice first if they want to go the teen superhero route for the DCEU though.
  5. WAG has access to a major library of Hanna-Barbera toons. They need to dust them off the shelves and get really funky with modernizing them. @YourMother may be right about the June 2018 animation being DC Superhero Girls. Maybe a prequel movie to kick-off the animated series from the My Little Pony creator.
  6. I dunno, it has potential to be the most kiddie-friendly superhero movie since The Incredibles and Big Hero 6.
  7. Naah, I don't believe it to be true. That's just Kill Bill with different character names. Totally Reddit material and something I inadvertently spitballed a couple of pages back.
  8. In my early 20's I used to think that too to a certain extent. Now that I'm in my late 20's, Sunset is the one I rewatch and connect to the most. I won't be able to take it when I reach the Midnight phase. *gulp*
  9. Coz society was racist trash when they were created in the 30-60's and POC were viewed as subhuman, so white was the only option.
  10. In the next promo they need to hype up the "From the writer of Frozen" part. I dunno how much of an impact it will have, but no harm in trying.
  11. It sucks for Naomi. She's not a ScarJo/Emma Stone level actor who has plenty of opportunities in the industry. She is also a WOC, even if a white passing one (I personally don't think she's that white passing but that's pretty subjective). Despite my adoration of Disney's Aladdin, this particular aspect has always been messy though. They conflated different cultures together and put a lot of Indian influences in the original movie like Agrabah and its palace based on the Taj Mahal and its native city Agra, the many armed idol, elephant, tiger imagery etc. As a result, Indians too felt a strong connection to the film due to the cultural ambiguity. It was easier to overlook when it was an animated film, tv show etc. from the 90's. In a live action film set in the 10's though, yeah... people are going to call it out. It was one of the biggest reasons I hoped they wouldn't touch Aladdin during the live action remake spree, but greedy ole Disney gotta milk it.
  12. I think it may still do better than other Disney fairytales. Not as well as Jungle Book obviously, but probably much better than the rest. My friend said the original Aladdin was one of the most popular Disney animations in India. And was there a Bollywood version of the film?
  13. Haven't read the book (yet) but I thought the focus was on the father-daughter relationship? And with the three kids on the quest? Not sure how big a role Gugu has in the actual movie.
  14. Yeah it was hella weird. They even included X-Men: Apocalypse in the tribute video @Morieris see vid
  15. They actually showed Fant4stic footage during the Jack Kirby tribute yesterday
  16. Nostalgia is a helluva drug. Also, in BatB's case, the concept of Hermione playing Belle
