Way more gossipy than is my usual want, but it is part of my beat.Yeah, he was always holding hands with Gina Carrano.If you look at the body language from the rest of the panel it's obvious. This is not a casual friendship. And Mickey is not going to be cool about it. Husband and wife team, fine, but they aren't married and probably aren't going to be, and given Pascal's dating history they aren't going to...
I knew it was going to be bad but I didn’t think it could be this bad.Between the years of 2015 and 2021 a wave of stupidity unlike anything that has come before swept over Hollywood. Largely it was Bob Iger’s doing. Disney was the industry leader, largely because Bob had bought successful franchises and hadn’t ruined them… Yet. Although he had totally trashed Disney Live-Action but Hollywood preferred to ignore that due to the size of the box office...
UPDATE: 8/2/24 (At the end of this post I predicted that Gaiman would one day be torn apart by his fans for a failure in political fashion. I now feel rather foolish for not suspecting that the creepy-looking dude who looked and dressed like the owner of a windowless van, and frequently wrote about sexual violence would turn out to be sexually abusive to a number of women. Gaiman as it turned out, was very good about selecting...
It’s official! Disney+ has now fallen behind Tubi. The little service that could has climbed over the multi-billion dollar zombie that is Bob Iger’s legacy. The dream of his career as CEO was to make Disney’s content digital. Well, he’s done it and nobody wants it. His solution is to merge Hulu with Disney+ and then kill Hulu completely.Brilliant.Iger doesn’t have a clue why Hulu worked in the first place because his head is fundamentally wrapped around a Boomer’s view...
he Carano TrialThe date when both parties could petition the court for a settlement has expired. It looks like they are going to trial and it looks like they are going to roll out the red carpet all the way to the witness stand. Here’s the list of people who will be deposed, whether they want to or not.First of all, Iger himself is not on the list but that doesn't mean that if during the course of discovery, something...
“Personal Log: Stirling Van Ruiter, Captain of the Jackpot.Do the right thing and you’ll always be punished for it. I was more loyal to Fleet Captain Garth than I should have been. When he went completely over the edge, I was the one who finally led the mutiny. Starfleet rewarded me by officially drumming me out. Oh, unofficially I still have my commission but now it’s in Starfleet Intelligence. ”A cashiered officer is ideal for the cover identity we are developing,”...
(I won’t be able to avoid spoilers in this review but I will try to minimize them)This is the last of the 20th Century Fox Marvel movies and it was… I was about to say it was a sweet send-off but I absolutely cannot apply the term ‘sweet’ to this movie in any context. It is even more raunchy and foul-mouthed than the other two Deadpool movies put together and that’s saying something. This flick is loaded with drug and deviant...
Straight from Comicon. Feige has announced tonight that the Russo Brothers will be directing the next two Avengers movies and that...I can't believe this but the ink has to be dry on the contract. Robert Downey Jr returns to Marvel as Doctor Doom.I know right?"Same Mask, new task," Downey told the audience from the stage.It’s proof, as if any was needed that Kevin Feige absolutely positively does not get Marvel comics.He was always just a Hollywood movie producer. There...
Creature Commandoes showed up in Weird War way back in 1980. It was the team back then consisted of a human commander and the Universal Monsters plus the Gorgon. As you can see they were kill'in Nazzzzeees.They were reintroduced in 2000 and have bounced in and out of canon depending on what direction the latest reboot is doing. Consequently, I don't really care that they don't look like the original team. This is the first appearance...
(Please note the question mark at the end of the title.)Star Wars Skeleton Crew is being poorly received at LucasFilm. The only reason we know that is because this leak is from Shill of Shills John Rocha so it's about as unofficially official as it gets. He would never let something like this out in the wild without permission. If that collegium of dramatic brilliance and taste known as LucasFilm hates this show enough to order that groveling fat-ass...
