/mtv/ General: Purple Rain Edition

I started the last one off with the death of a musician, and this one unfortunately coincides with another.

Mine tends to have a strange fondness for dumb shlock so it's not really that surprising. That's not an insult either, is fine to like that stuff and doesn't invalidate his other views.

I did find it surprising because Mike hated the first ID4 precisely because it was dumb shlock, and Resurgence is even dumber and shlockier and somehow he loved it. I am not saying he sucks for it or anything like that, but it was supremely odd to hear him giving praise to the movie.

I just watched The OA.
I kind of really enjoy that its climax is really emotional and powerful with context, and extremely silly without.

Marvel General - The End of an Era Begins Here!

Phase Three is the end of an era in Marvel films, in and out of the MCU: the X-Men film franchise will lose the only Logan it’s ever known after Hugh Jackman films the next Wolverine, Robert Downey Jr. and Chris Evans will close out their runs as Iron Man and Captain America with Infinity War—Pt. II, and Infinity War itself will be the climax of a decade-long plan that turned Marvel films into box office juggernauts.

And it all begins with Captain America: Civil War. Here’s the last trailer for the film—complete with the reveal of the MCU’s friendly neighborhood Spider-Man: //youtube.com/watch?v=dKrVegVI0Usyoutube thumb

Can totally see Vulture Suit being the heavy weapons prototype they canceled that was either the alternative to Falcons or its predecessor.

He's got that furry collar I hope stays into the final production.

"Half the fanbase" is referring to the gender politics engaged by the marketing, director, and production staff, which has nothing to do in regards to making references to the previous movies.

Funny that he ultimately did not make Battle Angel Alita, he passed it off to another director. Also, that movie is probably the most accurate anime to Hollywood conversion I've seen so far.

I don't follow capeshit movies any more, are they still being made? Last time I checked, they completely axed most of those and started a flood of TV series instead, since nobody was going to movies due to covid.

I didn't expect a reply, I was scrolling through since I saw this thread was from when BVS opened and found it fascinating to read.
With capeshit the short version is both Marvel and DC are in the process of rebooting or changing significantly. Marvel are seemingly building up to a large in-universe reboot and has been pulling from the 00s Pre-MCU movies lately also, meanwhile DC are completely restarting with James Gunn at the helm, remains to be seen if the much delayed Flash movie will be the one to pull the trigger on Gunn's reboot as it was meant to be a different in-universe reboot.

tl;dr marvel is going steady but stale, dc is currently fucked but Gunn is better than Snyder.

She's not playing her usual type as that role was giving to someone else. Also this is meant to be a tent pole for a franchise.

If it doesn't make more than 300 to 500 they'll consider it a failure.

>Those rival distributors who lowered their Batman v. Superman opening forecasts toward $100M have their suspicions about the Zack Snyder-helmed movie given the MPAA’s news that the home entertainment version of the movie would carry an R-rating. However, according to social media monitor RelishMix, since the R-rated news broke, the conversation for #BatmanvSuperman spiked 60% with 5K combined hashtags across Twitter and Instagram. Ninety-five percent of the chatter is positive about that R-rating.

Now that Star Wars is in the hands of the Family Friendly American Mouse Company™, how long until we get Blu-Ray releases of all the versions of the original trilogy? I mean the original theatrical releases, Special Edition 1997 theatrical release, and the DVD release. I watched the DVD edit first, and for that (and some other) reason(s) I prefer that one over all the others. However, I realize many other people grew up with different edits, and therefore think we collectively deserve ALL versions in 1080p.

I think it is up to us to bug Disney until they give in. What do you think?

Today I've had a dream about a sequel to "Kindred: The Embraced". It had a pretty mediocre name, something with "blood" in it, but the contents seemed decent. Then I woke up and was sad.
Before someone mentions it, I know that "Kindred" brutally violated some parts of lore and rules of the setting. But come on, it was the best thing in media since VtMB and some of the actors did their job really well. I'm normally not a big fan of bloodsuckers, whether old-timers following in Stoker's footsteps or modern variations, but oWoD really struck a chord of some kind.

So, anyone up for a "what kind of VtM (or some other WoD) film I would like to see"?

Yeah, Daredevil mostly avoided that trap by including the training montage with the origins of Matt’s “blindsight” ability and such that was frontloaded into the film. It doesn’t even show him deciding to become Daredevil or getting the suit or whatever; he’s just already Daredevil once the frontloading ends and the movie’s story begins. That left open the plothole of how he gets all those things he uses as Daredevil, though—and Marvel can’t make a glaring oversight with something that important.

My guess is that Marvel will shoot for a GOTG-style opening where the origin is frontloaded before the opening title sequence, which’ll leave open a way to transition into the opening title sequence and start the movie’s story.
