Remember when people petitioned to have a new ending of GoT and nothing happened? And remember when people petitioned not to have a MiddleEarth tv show with black people in it and it still went ahead? Almost as though there's a pattern there.

Anti-Woke Superhero Movie Blown Up in $1 Million Con
The film was based on a Confederacy-themed superhero comic book character created by a right-wing blogger. But then the money disappeared.

wonderful!Serves those jackasses right. Still, be on the lookout for people like that. They have no business being in any type of entertainment industry
I'll try and see if I can watch this movie on sunday. If not, it'll have to be next weekend.
I saw someone post the Creed 3 trailer in another thread but I wanna mention it here because I always have a lot of thoughts about the Rocky franchise, it's one of my pop culture obsessions..
So... Creed 2 sucked, ok? Because Rocky 4 (the one with the Russian) sucked. It's become this nostalgia touchpoint but that is the bad kind of nostalgia, the kind that celebrates something old just because it's old not because it's good in any way. Rocky 4 is a garbage movie but Stallone seems to feel that the story and character of Drago hasn't been given its due or whatever (possibly colored by the fact that Dolph Lundgren who played him is apparently a super nice and cool guy). So Creed 2 has Drago and his son and it's pretty dumb.
But if you like the formula and Michael B. Jordan as much as I do it's still fun. Wereas first Creed was actually pretty decent.
So there were rumors that Creed 3 would also bring in a Rocky sequel villain son, this time the son of Clubber Lang, the character played by Mr. T in Rock 3.
*sigh*
Ok, Rocky 3- now this is proper nostalgia because Rocky 3 is an incredibly mixed film. It's not a good film at all- it completely loses everything that gave the first 2 Rocky movies their charm- the whole underdog, working class, grimy vibe- in favor of BIG 80s FRANCHISE nonsense. But it's good nostalgia because it's entertaining as hell, has a killer soundtrack including the Eye of the Tiger song, and Mr T's performance is captivating. It's also incredibly racially problematic, which is delightful for nostalgia farming.
But the idea of having another Rocky son was just lame, especially as it turns out Stallone is done appearing in these (which I respect). So I'm glad that they ended up NOT doing that.
However- the trailer reveals it's the same plot, lol. Almost... I mean, in Rock 3, Lang and Rocky were strangers while in Creed 3 they were friends once. But the hungry challenger with a chip on his shoulder out to get the softened comfortable champion is exactly what both movies are about.
Either way, Creed 3 is also yet another movie with Jonathan Majors, who seems to be having quite a moment as I'm seeing him in like everything these days. I don't mind, he is a very watcheable actor. And damn did he get jacked for this flick.
So basically we're getting Rocky 3 but by having black characters in all the principle roles we're removing the very hilarious and weird racial subtext- or, text, hahah- of the 80s version.

Creed is great, and Creed 2 fine/ok, but made the tile character less sympathetic, yet we're still supposed to root for him. They made his character too arrogant. I did love the dynamic between Drago and his son. I don't know what to expect from the third movie, but I'm interested.
So, an article has come out claiming that Sacheen Littlefeather faked her Native American heritage https://www.sfchronicle.com/opinion...efeather-oscar-Native-pretendian-17520648.php.
The article allegedly contains direct quotes from Littlefeather's own sisters.
However, some have claimed that the author of the article has a known history of falsely accusing people of faking Native American heritage, including Native American who are also black.
And apparently she once suggested using blackface as a form of protest against a football team.

Halloween Ends Director Responds to Negative Feedback (movieweb.com)
Ends didn't bother me. Each of Green's movies did something different which, as Carpenter says, is better than doing the same thing over and over again. It has its issues but so did even the original.

Well, I wanted an actual blue faced Kang but this is fine too.
Honestly while I enjoy the character and his movies, I find it hard to get excited about Antman. Or the Wasp, who yes, is in the title of this movie yet seemingly gets zero lines in this trailer.
Outside of a few clips on youtube, I haven't watched any Ant-Man movies. Nor do I feel like putting in the energy to do so. I am more than likely going to skip this one as well.
Kinda old news, but I didn't know they were doing a cinematic universe. Is Joe Musashi or Axel Stone gonna show up at some point? Vectorman would be nice too. Apparently, Tails is going to get a solo movie after Sonic 3, and Knuckles gets his own mini-series on Paramount+ next year.

Huh. Thought that was just clickbait when I saw it somewhere else.
Good luck DC. I don't think this will pay dividends for the film part for a long while, but I see the animation and maybe TV shows really benefitting from this.
Still looking great, and glad to have a more action-packed Sonic cartoon again. Sonic Prime is going full Spider-Verse here! Release date is December 15th.
He has a point, but 3D is still overrated either way. Even with Avatar it was barely noticeable anymore after a few minutes of watching because your brain had already adjusted to it, kinda like going from 1080p to 4K.
I don't know why James Cameron is acting like he's saying something new. This was pointed out years ago.
