It felt very much in the vein and quality of the previous Guardians films to me, so I figured, if people loved those, they would also love this. Personally, I thought it was probably one of the better non-Spider-Man marvel offerings we have gotten in a while. The last phase had a lot of underwhelming releases.
Danny McBride sure likes to put dicks in his show—both figurative and literal.
I understand why Warren Ellis was ousted, but—having read plenty of his comics back in the past—so much of what made Castlevania great was clearly his own style he brought to it. The personalities that he infused the characters with was a huge part of my personal enjoyment. I wish people would stop ruining things just because they were horny, and can’t behave appropriately.
The new writer/showrunner doesn’t have much to his name for something like this, but i’m totally willing to give it a shot.
Hook with it’s 29% tomatometer rating. Dustin Hoffman—sexual misconduct allegations aside—fucking nailed it as Hook, and I think the general concept of an adult Peter Pan returning was pretty cool. Also, who doesn’t love Robin Williams? It was a movie I loved in my childhood so I am absolutely biased, but 29% seems absurd. I still find the “Don’t try to stop me, Smee” scene hilarious to this day.
This was pretty much my take too. I went in wanting to love it, but it ultimately fell flat for me—even if I didn’t exactly hate it. I re-watched the first four seasons back when it was announced this was coming. So, maybe I did this to myself by setting the bar way too high. I’m still going to give it a chance, hoping the overreliance on meta humor was a one-off, but I’ll be tempering my expectations going forward.
I read this and it does not say he shot down rumors of a justice league live action film despite that being stated in the title. This is all it has to say regarding Justice League:
DC announced over the weekend a Justice League animated film that would be released in 2024 and it’s based on Crisis on Infinite Earths. Many deduced that this could be the basis of a possible live-action film by Gunn. However, Gunn shot down the rumor by replying to a fan with a simple “No,” on Threads.
It simply states there is no Justice League film based on Crisis on Infinite Earths coming. This article mentions 3 heroes—Guy Gardner, Hawkgirl and Mister Terrific—but fails to mention they also added Anthony Carrigan as Metamorpho to the cast as well. Feels like the author kind of half-assed this. Honestly though, whether the movie is labeled as such or not, once you reach a certain number of DC heroes teaming up it becomes a Justice League film by default.
For real. I imagine they’ll be finding someone new, but no one will ever truly be able replace him.
