I still haven't seen anybody bring up the fact that Blue Beetle beat Supergirl.

If you heard it, you heard it here.

Oh, and BTW... if you include James Gunn's 2021 version of The Suicide Squad, the new Spider-Man movie out-grossed the final worldwide gross of every James Gunn DC movie combined in just 3 days.

yeah Odyssey made money...is it any good?...opinions are divided


Spider-Man wins...its HUGE money
they say movies are back and so is the comicbook genre


What else is there a Toy Story remake, that concert music stuff Michael not pedo-ish Wacko is just weird grabbing his crotch on stage, giving flavored 'wine' to kids

So culturally it seems a little empty but What else? We got a good scifi Project Hail Mary

but then its a wave of foreign stuff a Chinese film about comedy and cars named 'Pegasus 3'
or Mario a foreign Japan owned Nintendo movie product pushed by a US/EU distribution film company

Disclosure Day FLOP, Steven Spielberg brand takes a hit

Star Wars Mandalorian/Yoda another Flop

its not all dead, small horror or those indie films like Obsession, Backrooms make money

Hollyweird budgets are still way too high and there is an uncomfortable Left vs Right political divide that at times is pushing away both sides of the political spectrum



Supergirl – How to Make the Audience Hate You

Anatomy of a Failure


Filmento



another issues happening is 'stars' are changing, the old elite A-List actors are starting to retire or die

hollyweird star power? the new bunch are not replacing the old like they should


The Downfall of Amber Heard
