You forgot the part where he makes everyone question their sexuality
He is indeed a very handsome man.
I don’t see it. He just looks like a buff version of the guys in my family.
Hi can I fuck your family
Better to ask forgiveness than for permission.
I wouldn’t say I’m questioning it, Bob.
He was a great Superman. Perfect casting. Wrong director and story.
And I sometimes get crap for this but Batfleck was pretty good too. Those movies had issues, oh my yes, but the casting for those 2 roles was not one of them. Luthor, on the other hand…
Superman has always been a bit of a boring character, which IMO is hard to write for to make interesting beyond the origin / coming of age story.
I think screwing up Batman is a lot more offensive. So much good lore and villians to work with.
IMO, Affleck played a terrible Fatman. He wasn’t dark and brooding, he was wooden and boring. It wasn’t just the story, but Afflecks portrayal of the character.
Honestly, if Jesse Eisenberg had just been doing a version of his Zuckerberg from The Social Network, it would have been fine. His whole twitchy routine was weird as fuck.
Probably a hot take, but I think Batfleck was the closest we’ve gotten to a comicbook accurate Batman. Batfleck’s size and build were correct (physically imposing, could have been a bit taller), he was intelligent, mostly broody, and could fight. There are some things that could have been better (being a martial artist instead of being a brawler), but of all the movie incarnations so far I’d say he’s the closest.
He’s as disappointed in the witcher as the rest of us
dang what happened with the witcher? i’m not in the loop
The show runner insisted on telling “their version of the story”.
Which… let’s put it like this:
If you’re making a TV series about a book series written by a world famous author, and you think you can do a variation / “your take” on the story, because you think you’re just that great of a writer, artist, director, etc., then you better actually be on his level.
Say, for example, Kubrick and The Shining or Ridley Scott and Blade Runner or Jackson and The Lord of the Rings, as opposed to Shyamalan and The Last Airbender or Jackson and The Hobbit.
The Hobbit wasn’t Jackson’s fault. The studio was going to make the movies in that time frame with or without Peter Jackson, so he chose to helm the crashing ship.
And without him they were threatening to have the production leave NZ, which would’ve put a bunch of his friends out of the job.
I didn’t know that detail. What a mensch.
It was good. Then, they fucked it.
The Witcher had so much damn potential, I absolutely loved the casting all around not just him (yen was mid tho)
I’m still salty
Both Yemefer and Triss were poor choices in my opinion. But I would have watched it regardless if there was anything of substance to watch after the first season.
So any news on Warhammer 40k?
I wouldn’t hold out much hope. Games Workshop was a nightmare to work with in the past. Doubley more now that they’re owned primarily by BlackRock and investment banks.
If Netflix can totally fuck up the literal gimmie that was the Witcher…
they need to get the guy who did the astartes cg, lock him in a room with cavill and let them hash out the first 10 movies.
Lock ADB and Dan Abnett in with them for good measure.
I really hope he catches break with that one. Seemed really passionate about it.
And the whole setting allows for awesome sci fi, with spin offs if successful. I’m not holding my breath but it would be awesome if the series opens the door for broad application of the franchise.
Decades of universe building and flexible enough to allow new stuff. But Tyranids, orcs, chaos, eldar, necron, Hive cities, battlefleet, titans… please don’t let them fuck this up.
please don’t let them fuck this up.
Totally unrelated question: Which chaos god feeds on disappointment? Tzeentch? Malice?
Nurgle does despair right?
Amazon went woke mode and ruined it, it seems.
So in case anyone wonders what that unhinged excuse for a sentence is supposed to mean: there is a rumour that came from a random unverified 4chan post that amazon wanted a woman in power armour and a sister of battle wasn’t good enough. Which is why there’s a female custodian in the latest codex.
The rumour also states that cavill now wants to leave. The source is about as trustworthy as something sharpied on a highschool bathroom wall and was only spread by angry youtubers that got suddenly into 40k without realising it started of as a parody of fascism. So I wouldn’t be too worried honestly.
That’s the reason most big name actors have their own production companies to work on their own movies, you have way more control over your own role compared to being just another actor on set.
In any case, I think the audience still recognize great performances by individual actors even if the end product is badly reviewed or didn’t do well at the box office, and there are lessons to be learned from the “Suicide Squad” and “Amsterdam” and “Babylon” until you finally get a “Barbie” against all expectations.
I hope he finds his own “Barbie” too.
I deeply wish The Man From Uncle kept going. Sure the whole Armor Hammer thing was pretty unfortunate, but geeze is that movie (and soundtrack) a fun watch
The Man From UNCLE is always my first choice for a movie that needs a sequel.
Sorry, Hollywood doesn’t make fun spy movies anymore.
Much as we want them.
They should absolutely recast Army Hammer with someone else and make another movie. The Man from UNCLE had too much going for it to fall into obscurity because just one of it’s stars was a cannibal.
Say what now?
Cavill is a god among men
Bro that’s some major dick riding you’re doing. He’s just a human like the rest of us.
