  1. WHOA ALADDIN NEWS! Smith as Genie, Naomi Scott as Jasmine and Mena Massoud as Prince Ali himself!
  2. Well, Emily Blunt and Mary Poppins Returns are trending worldwide...
  3. All the (living) princess VA's minus Idina and Ming-Na with Silverman. Apparently they appeared on the stage for the WiR2 panel (L-R) Paige O'Hara ("Beauty and the Beast"), Irene Bedard ("Pocahontas"), Mandy Moore ("Rapunzel"), Auli'i Cravalho ("Moana"), Sarah Silverman ("Wreck-It Ralph 2"), Kristen Bell ("Frozen"), Kelly Macdonald ("Brave"), Anika Noni Rose ("The Princess and the Frog"), Linda Larkin ("Aladdin"), and Jodi Benson ("The Little Mermaid"). Detailed description of the scene: https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/entertainthis/2017/07/15/wreck-ralph-sequel-disney-princesses/481531001/
  4. I'm surprised no one has mentioned this yet, but it sounds like WiR is being retooled to become Disney's Lego Movie franchise in a way, what with all the studio owned IP's appearing and all the meta references.
  5. I think Leto will be saved for the actual Batverse films like Batman, Sirens and/or Batgirl. No need to trot him out for this again. Harley, Deadshot and Amanda Waller are capable of carrying the film by themselves. They may also feature Deathstroke as the villain if he gets cut from Batman as rumored.
  6. Hadn't done what? If you are talking about the murders, I thought it was proven that he personally did not commit any of them. He just convinced his followers to carry them all out.
  7. There was a good tv movie a decade back named Helter Skelter that told the story from Linda Kasabian's POV (and played by Clea DuVall, who looked uncannily like the real deal). Kasabian is the only member of the MF who I found interesting and sympathetic, a decent kid who just got stuck with the wrong crowd. The others were just asshole narcissistic publicity whores who went too far. Unless Tarantino has Sharon Tate survive and kill them all Bride-style, color me uninterested in this dumb criminal glorification. I'd be okay if this were from the cops' POV too though.
  8. I don't want a prequel, I want a sequel. It would be more interesting to see how Furiosa and the Wives managed to protect and sustain the Citadel in the aftermath of Fury Road.
  9. Suicide Squad wasn't a Batverse franchise. The earlier teams were an even mix of villains from all corners of DC. Then Harley was included and she came to dominate it in a big way, but I still don't think it counts as a "Bat franchise".
  10. If the source wasn't THR, I wouldn't have believed that the two folks being approached were Dev Patel and Riz Ahmed. Lol so ridiculous. Even Life of Pi worked harder to find its star. In other hilarious Disney news, Tara Sutaria also starred on the Indian version of Jessie. So Disney Channel just "creates" international adaptations of their already cookie cutter, assembly line produced shows? This is kind of surreal for me.
  11. I mean, I liked her in Power Rangers, but lol at her of all people playing Jasmine. Tara Sutaria was apparently in the Indian version of Suite Life of Zach and Cody. Oh Disney
  12. Hathaway's Catwoman was verily watered down. Pfeiffer's Catwoman was terrifically acted and written, but I still feel that character should have been Poison Ivy and not Catwoman. Uma Thurman played a very superficial version of Ivy but god bless her for having loads of fun with it. I'm scared for Gotham City Sirens now. They are possibly the most complex female figures in comics and while I don't find Ayer offensive like many other folks do, I would hate to see this movie savaged by the critics like SS, or worse, like Catwoman.
  13. DM3 counts as a superhero movie too (technically supervillain but that's no longer true for Gru and fam). Just not live action or Marvel/DC. Brad Brevet hasn't gotten the hang of BO analysis yet. But what surprises me is that the WW comparisons to movies she has already blown past are still there. His successors would immediately change the comparison movie once the current movie began to vastly outperform it or began to lag behind.
  14. Awesome start for Spidey. And WW making 2M inspite of SMH previews is amazing too. The first sign of Peter and Diana perfectly coexisting?
  15. DH2 did about 29M more than TF3 in 2011 so there's a recent exception. Interestingly, that was also the last year before the consistent superhero/animation domination of summer since 2012 (JW in 2015 being the sole film to buck the trend).
  16. Poor Emma Watson got stuck with the worst successful niche: Millennial nostalgia wank
