  1. #MeToo hasn't targeted enough Hollywood pederasts yet Though in this particular case, it just seems like Gerwig wanting to work again with some of her Lady Bird actors.
  2. How many lily white adaptations of LW do we need though? At least if they went Hamilton with this then it would instantly stand out and at the hands of an adept creative team, even introduce refreshing and fascinating new dynamics to the story.
  3. I think you'll like Alex Strangelove more. It's definitely a movie worth recommending.
  4. In the book, yes. With Weixler's casting though, maybe they've removed that aspect of the character for the film.
  5. Jess Weixler, who doesn't resemble Chastain but she's her real life BFF and also featured with her (and McAvoy) in that Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby movie. Apparently Weinstein tried to get Chastain to pimp Weixler for him
  6. LMAO I knew someone was not going to get it and say or imply that the original poster was talking about Wonder Woman. WW is basically the Donner Superman movie template which was apparent even if it had not been explicitly revealed by Patty. Though the Donner DNA is in the MCU DNA as admitted by Feige himself. WW directly borrowed from the original source but this thread was created for fanboys indulging themselves anyhoo so I guess reality's irrelevant.
  7. I'd like Richard Donner's time machine that allowed him to use the "MCU playbook" in 1978.
  8. Jared Leto went around biting co-stars while method acting on the sets of Morbius ^2020 movie news headlines
  9. Wow, missed opportunity to not cast Bryce as Audra. But from the looks of it, doesn't seem like they were willing to pay up for her anyway.
  10. Belated s/o to No Man's Land (and the subsequent fight scene) for winning "Best Fight" at last week's MTV Movie & TV Awards. The fact that WW won anything more than a year after release and with competition from the far more recent BP and IW shows what an impact this sequence had on people.
  11. Amy Pascal probably wants to be the first to get an Asian superhero movie out in the diversity race triggered by the stupendous success of the Wonder Woman/Black Panther one-two punch. It's crazy how both Marvel and DC are still lacking when it comes to Asian (and Latino) superheroes, even when those markets have proven to be such formidable box office forces.
  12. Think this piece will be in the first or middle act as an armored costume was teased as well, which I figure will be her final fight ensemble.

  14. Lol this lends to the theory of Steve as fish out of water this go around with Diana being his guide.
  15. Welcome. Yeah, I think she will be called Wonder Girl as someone on the show's costuming team leaked that she may be wearing the traditional red costume with yellow stars. No idea about Donna's origin as that continues to be a clusterf*** to this day.
  16. I prefer the Circe theory the best but I like the sound of the bolded part. Especially since they made Dr. Cyber Japanese in Rebirth and such a plotline is totally in synch with the trend in 80's Japanese fiction of focusing on the "technology/innovation arms race paranoia" through seminal work like the (original) Ghost in the Shell. But I think it's most probably magical hijinks thanks to Pedro Pascal playing a Deimos/Phobos type figure.
  17. Yay, a fellow Donna Troy fan! Did you know she's appearing on the upcoming Titans live action show? Though would love to see an actress of color play Donna on the big screen. Thoughts on making Cheetah a geneticist who's searching for an AIDS cure through human/animal splicing and when denied the resources, is forced to experiment on herself, thus turning into a cheetah/woman hybrid monster? It would make her a pretty tragic figure and this origin is the same as the one in the Justice League Unlimited animated series (except for the disease being AIDS).
  18. Why would she hallucinate him in those 80's pants? Also, you can see his bewildered expression at his surroundings so it appears to be really him brought back to life. It would be a neat reversal of the "fish out of water" dynamic for Steve and Diana. Yeah, but there are many other figures in Greek mythology like Circe who aren't part of the "pantheon of gods". She's more of a witch goddess. The movie IS the same universe as this after all: Even Shazam and Aquaman will be heavily rooted in fantasy/myth.
