MTV was like some sicko voyeur tv, young troubled people made into stars and put everywhere for their dysfunction....it was supposed to be thought provoking like Dr Phil or Oprah but turned out worse than British Jewish American Gerald Norman Springer tv Springer trainwrecks, exploitation.


this news seems to be 'Sean Gunn' not James Gunn, they look similar at times but James is tall and more white gray haired while Sean still has dark haired he is less tall and has a dark beard, they also speak different when interviewed.

Nah.

These numbers are pathetic. They're just pretending the numbers are good in comparison to all the recent flops.


Dr. Strange 2 made almost $1 Billion in 2022.
https://www.boxofficemojo.com/release/rl3724903937/

Even with nearly $1 Billion in box office, Forbes estimated it only made a profit of $127 Million. That is because the budget for this movie ballooned to $414.9 Million with reshoots and heavy marketing. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doctor_Strange_in_the_Multiverse_of_Madn
ess



The first Dr. Strange made $677 Million worldwide, back in 2016. That's nearly before nearly 10 years of inflation and all of Joe Biden*'s inflation. https://www.boxofficemojo.com/release/rl3076752897/

The budget for 2016 Dr. Strange was $165 Million.


The budgets for Superman and Fantastic 4 are currently being reported as $225 and $200 million, respectively. Their breakeven points are $562.5 Million and $500 Million, respectively.

These will both likely make some money here, but we've already had what? 4 superhero flops this year before these two eek out comparatively small wins compared to the kids movies like Minecraft that made a ton?

If they want to keep making comic book movies, they'd better be a lot more picky and choosy with them, and they'd better learn to get the budgets down between $100 and $150 Million max if they want to regularly be fairly confident they're at least not going to lose any more money on any of them going forward.

And unless they've got a GREAT story to tell, stop making the TV shows altogether. Flooding the market with that sub-standard shit like She Hulk and Secret Invasion despite the Hollywood budget per episode was terrible for the genre.

Megalopolis Pitch Meeting



Coppola attempted to produce the film in 1989 and again in 2001, but each time, the studios refused to finance the film, due to Coppola's string of late-career box-office disappointments and the September 11 attacks, respectively. As a film maker it seems he wanted to link with the Catilinarian conspiracy, sometimes Second Catilinarian conspiracy, was an attempted coup d'état by Lucius Sergius Catilina (Catiline) to overthrow the Roman consuls of 63 BC – Marcus Tullius Cicero and Gaius Antonius Hybrida – and forcibly assume control of the state in their stead. Disillusioned by the studio system, Coppola did not produce Megalopolis until he built a large fortune in the winemaking business. He spent $120 million of his money to make the film. Principal photography took place in Georgia from November 2022 to March 2023. Adam Driver as Cesar Catilina, a futuristic architect and the Chairman of the Design Authority in New Rome he cans top time but its not a 'super powers' movie , Giancarlo Esposito as Franklyn Cicero, the arch-conservative mayor, Nathalie Emmanuel as Julia Cicero, Cesar's love interest and Cicero's daughter, Shia LaBeouf as Clodio Pulcher, Cesar's jealous cousin, Aubrey Plaza as Wow Platinum, a TV presenter specializing in financial news who desires money and power, Jon Voight as Hamilton Crassus III, Cesar's wealthy uncle and the head of the Bank, Laurence Fishburne is the narrator and plays as Fundi Romaine, Cesar's driver and assistan.Reviews were mixed, with critics, who praised the film's ambition and style but found it chaotic and uneven, being greatly polarized on the acting and story.
