  • Happy 32th anniversary to this timeless classic. https://variety.com/2024/film/news/the-batman-2-director-gentleman-ghost-rumors-script-done-1236130836/ I'm still hoping for new villains. I still think the Penguin is overused in Batman media. …

  • I am thankful that Spielberg has always generally kept his eye on JP. It feels right with him calling certain creative shots. As for JPR I'll still see it regardless of sequel overkill (and getting sick of Scarjo being advertised nonstop, no matter …
  • Special appearance: Woody Allen as a dinosaur. Requested by Scarjo herself. Mixed opinions on the project itself. Which of the big 5 (Neill, Goldblum, Dern, Pratt & Howard) will appear? Probably get a trailer by the end of the year. I’m also get…
