  1. I refuse to believe they will let this movie suck as bad as the TLJ. While JJ might be a bit of a hack, he knows how to play it safe and make it general interesting.
  2. I don’t know, 3/4 completely reshot going up to just a few weeks before release? 6 endings all testing unpopular? These are of course anonymous sources (which these days to be fair usually means fake news) saying this. And obviously no major film media outlet would dare speak ill of Disney so likely we won’t see anyone from the classic 20th century media report on issues even with iron clad proof...we will just have to wait and see the final product.
  3. I’ve heard there are massive issues with this film. Some reports are saying they tested 4-6 different endings and none of them worked. That the film has experienced a nearly 75% reshooting and as of the trailer release they were still doing some principal photography for it. That seems like a recipe for disaster, if even only a part of this info coming out is correct.
  4. Took my kids to this, not horrible just a bad film. I don’t get the urge to remove the concept of true bad guys (or girls in this case) in current movies. Just a waste of time and money.
  5. Hopefully this shows Marvel (and other entertainment businesses from sports leagues to Hollywood in general) that you don't need to tailor your product to or bow before China to make money. Yeah its nice to get that good communist dictatorship cash...but you can still have a very workable and sell-able product without chasing it.
  6. Id take the cash and turn it into a lot more, use the funds to buy what I want.
  7. My greatest fear in the world as a child came from Beastmaster....those bat people who wrapped people up and at them while holding them....scared the F--K out of me.
  8. Oh Arthur is Wayne and Penny’s son, but there was an official adoption no doubt about that. I was only confirming that there was a legal adoption that occurred.
  9. As a 7 year old parts of that movie both scared me and made me want to jump around the living room. I have such memories of that film. I knew I wasn’t getting all the jokes but I caught enough to know it was actually funny. great pick up!
  10. Of course there are more sequels. The only things we seem to like collectively is stuff made in 2007 and before. Every movie people are excited for seems be tied to a property that was popular at least a decade ago or more. It’s just a trend I’ve noticed,
  11. Fair enough, I think many would seem them differently. But again, trying to avoid politics here was just pointing out a connection from the film.
  12. In the 1940s, and she had no means of visible support other than a job that would have kept her working many hours a day (no other family, or church group/social group). It appears Arthur's true parentage was unknown at the time of the adoption, that also raises a red flag of pure convenience. Imagine a very rich businessman with all the connections in the world to City Hall and its organizations (like a city adoption agency)...who wanted to make his illegitimate child's birth go away before it ruined him in 1940's society....this is EXACTLY how they would do it.
  13. Well that's the thing since its fiction of course and it was not explicitly shown, you have to just make assumptions. I would imagine though that multiple crippling mental illnesses would not just appear the instant she was granted an adopted child, but likely were always there in her adulthood.
  14. Has he given his opinion yet on "Joker"?
  15. Which is funny, because the film's Joker devoted protesters I thought were based on Antifa (wear masks, fighting against "fascism" and "privilege" all while holding signs talking about "resisting"). I guess the idea of protest in general is a no-go in land of literal re-education camps.
  16. The difference was it was 70's and not the 40's, and it was a married couple not a single 20 year old woman who clearly had mental issues.
  17. Just remember....according to RT critics...."Batwoman" is better than "Joker". That should tell you a lot about the quality of media critics these days.
  18. So its doing all of this, without pumped up China-cash? Its still not opening there?
  19. Great, so she is now "Bat-Rey"?
  20. Staring back at us, from the places we are afraid to look?
  21. Cap come on. It’s a movie spoiler discussion board. It’s supposed to be fun, not some sort of battle.
