Cavill Is Out as the Witcher

#TheDarkHeraldWasRightEarlier today I stated that the third season would be the last one for Henry Cavill on the Witcher.Cavill’s Highlander movie appears to be dead.He was supposed to be shooting it in April. But he came down with Covid. The film’s funding went bye-bye.Now that he is signed as Superman for the next ten years, he’s not going to have time for it. I suspect that the next season of the Witcher is going to be the last. Cavill’s constantly having to...

We Happy Few, We Band of Brothers

Happy Saint Crispin's Day. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A-yZNMWFqvM “He that outlives this day, and comes safe home,Will stand a tip-toe when the day is named,And rouse him at the name of Crispian.He that shall live this day, and see old age,Will yearly on the vigil feast his neighbours,And say ‘To-morrow is Saint Crispian:’Then will he strip his sleeve and show his scars.And say ‘These wounds I had on Crispin’s day.’Old men forget: yet all shall be forgot,But he’ll remember with advantagesWhat feats he did that...

Blogs and Ends: The Opposite of Love

FIRSTWhy don’t I have an opinion on the death of Jodie Whitaker’s Doctor Who? I just don’t care.That’s it. That’s the deal. I don’t care. I don’t give a shit. Tolkien, I care about. I just wrote a multi-week 20,000+ word rant dedicated to my hatred of Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power. But the end of the worst era in the 60-year history of Doctor Who happened last night and YouTube had to tell me about it. I had promised myself I...

The Dark Herald Recommends Black Adam

I trudged rather than walked into the theater to see this one. I had, with childlike innocence taken the critics at their word. Intellectually I know I can trust an angry cobra more than the opinion of the 21st-century film critic. Thus, my determination to approach this film with an open mind but I could hardly ignore the track record of every Marvel movie since 2017, to say nothing of every DC film since The Dark Knight Rises.My low expectations weren’t unreasonable.So, I...

First Impressions: Black Adam

Prepare yourself for a shockThe critics are lying through their teeth.Black Adam is excellent.Although the reason why the critics are lying is the really important issue here. Everyone is assuming they are trying to punish David Zaslav for shutting down various Woke projects at Warner Brothers.But I strongly suspect that the real reason it's getting a bunch of bad reviews is that Black Adam is a nationalist movie.It's an accidental nationalist movie. I'm quite sure it was trying to...

Walter Hamada Is Done

Today in completely expected news. Walter Hamada has been fired as the head of DC films.I was wondering why Zaslav hadn't axed him yet. Now I know.Black Adam is going to underperform. Either the shill media hasn't been paid enough to give good reviews or they are mad enough at David Zaslav to not care about reprucsussions... This time.Walter Hamada was clearly hired in a panic. He was a producer at Warner’s subsidiary New Line Cinema for ten...

There is a rumor running around that I would grade at a “B” for reliability, that Storm from the X-Men is going to be spliced into Wakanda Forever.Why the late addition?Well, the problem Disney has right now is that Marvel has killed another cash cow with Black Panther. Apparently, that decision had been made even before Chadwick Boseman’s condition was known to the company. Disney Marvel...

Red Sonja Looks Promising

I capped this from star Mathilda Lutz's Instagram.It looks like this is actually being made which I find astonishing. Red Sonja has been in development hell for better than 15 years.It might be something even if the director wasn't quite was I hoping for. From my first post on the subject:I had long since abandoned all hope for that project. It was clearly and obviously going to be dripping with Woke. One of the writers was Tasha Huo, whose only credit...

How Much Interest is There in Rings of Power?

Intriguing question. Amazon is claiming they are mopping the floor with everyone thanks to their Tolkien fan fiction. Particularly HBOmax's House of the Dragon.But are they?Well, there is no question of this if you ask the shill media. Variety and Hollywood Reporter were positively crowing over numbers that Amazon released that proved. PROVED mind you that more people saw The Rings of Power than the House of the Dragon.Except they didn't prove anything of the kind. ...
