commendable Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 6 hours ago, Eric Drake said: Because he's not getting cast and it's annoying people keep saying "lol Joaquamole Phoenix needs to beat up Battinson in the next one". They're from different timelines, and I don't think Joaquamole would say yes anyways. It's just irritating people keep saying they want something that will never happen. Even if it COULD happen, should it happen? I dont think that iteration of joker would work in a batman movie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When was last time? Everything has been so sterile and asexual, lacking charisma and chemistry I think there's been a misconception in Hollywood over the last decade that sexuality or romance in big movies are inherently contradictory or reductive to strong and good female roles which I disagree with. You can have that without the woman character just being eye candy or a simple love interest. Or maybe its just because Disney owns everything now and super safe sanitation is their brand. I don't really know. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I am Batman fan since 1997, this is the most anticipated movie of the year for me, so it's been extremely hard year and a half. Thanks God the wait is over next Friday (I'll see the film on March 4th, 2:30 p.m. GTM+1). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really know. You are right, it’s probably both. Ironic since the Raimi Spider-Man movies are romantic and Batman Returns is so freakish. But star power has taken an asexual backseat with the rise of modern studio filmmaking and IP over saturation. The demand to see the same movies again and again has overwhelmed the desire to see actors express any desire that isn’t strictly plot related. I mean, was Jungle Cruise the first instance of The Rock sharing an onscreen kiss? He had awful chemistry with Blunt. The sanitized, family brand of Disney has certainly diluted the sexuality of MCU movies (largest form of entertainment) so the films can remain as broad as ever. Interesting how the biggest forms of expression and love recently in Disney films have been, like, quick, brief kisses between gay characters, either in background or hardly mentioned… Eternals, Rise of Skywalker.. I also imagine the MeToo movement had a big impact. With the rise in intimacy coaches to avoid discomfort, scripts/producers, etc probably decided for best judgment to avoid these instances. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The twist in Red Notice is that the Rock is married to Gal Gadot and they kiss a few times in that. It was a little like watching two dolls smushing their mouths together though. For such a manly man, the Rock feels weirdly sexless to me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to remember that Disney initially purchased Marvel to appeal to boys, so there must have been a "Little boys find romance/kissy scenes icky" thought process that went into making the MCU films during the Perlmutter era, the remnants of which lingered in the Feige era. Hopefully Love & Thunder is a refreshing change and highlights a love story front and center in an MCU movie.

Capitalism has always been an issue with filmmaking, but the last 15 years or so of studios relentlessly catering to boys and infantile man children has been a cinematic low point 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
