John Wayne's Oddball Advice Left An Impression On Michael Caine - SlashFilm

It's very ... specific advice.

www.slashfilm.com

"He said, 'Never wear suede shoes.' I asked why and he said, 'Because you'll be taking a piss in a men's room and there'll be a guy next to you, and all of a sudden the guy will recognize you and he'll turn and go, 'Michael Caine!' And he'll piss all over your shoes!' I never wore suede shoes again."

No wait... No I think I would actually pay to see a theater perform some kind of Batman musical. Have Bruce and Penguin doing a duet about how money should be used, give Joker a big and showy number on chaos and killing, Two Faced gets a nice swanky jazz number.

Yes, give it to me. I want to see a Batman musical. (Specifically a theater performance)

What the hell is up with those eyes?! Like, I know they're supposed to look painted on, but seeing as this is live-action and they have to actually move like eyes, why would you make them painted-on?

And people complained Alita's eyes went in to uncanny valley. All the more ironic, because Disney bought Fox, can't get something right Cameron, Rodriguez, and their crews accomplished.

Netflix cancels 'Resident Evil' after one season

It's game over for Netflix's 'Resident Evil' TV series, which has been canceled after one season.

In the news and apparently surprising nobody.

Strangely, the films apparently did well enough to get like 6 of them despite the fact they apparently became increasingly incomprehensible as they went on.

I have given up on Hollywood or Capcom making a good official live-action RE movie.

I have given up on Hollywood or Capcom making a good official live-action RE movie.

I think part of the problem is the series is generally kinda cheesy and campy but in a way that works in a game setting and the RE movies kinda don't get that. Except for the really rare moments they do and honestly those are the few times I actually enjoyed the movies.

I get the feeling those moments are completely accidental rather then the production team doing any of it out of any self awareness. I've honestly never played the series but I feel I've gotten an appreciation for it from Noah Gervaises 7 and a half hour video on the entire series, and of course the culture osmosis from the past 20 or so years.
