Deadpool 3 has a fight scene based on the remains of the 20th Century FOX logo

“Fixed it.” - Hugh Jackman

Based Wolverine.

So many interesting things coming up. Furiosa probably gonna be good. Deadpool looks cool. 3 neat looking monkey films with G x K, Monkey Man, Kingdom of Planet of the Apes. Wicked Fucking FINALLY got a trailer to drop. Only been 20 years.

Pretty cool. Weird there’s 3 projects related to monkeys.

The Wicked trailer had an interesting reaction. Most are the theatre kids and musical nerds (yo) happy it’s even happening at all.

The smaller subsection is dudes calling the 20 year thing woke and trash because the witch is good and the wizard is bad. As if that wasn’t how the musical was from the start. Book not as much so I understand. Elphaba apparently does some dodgy shit there because it’s a book about a bad guy, a sympathetic one, but still. Bad guy.

@Dex Stewart

Am I the only one who understands the complexity of this ambitious cinematic masterpiece? This movie isn’t stupid. YOU’RE STUPID!

I saw Wicked over 20 years ago on Broadway. It was an amazing play and I want to see the movie when it comes out. It’s weird that it took this long, though.

@kleptomage
Wicked has been slow to get a big screen adaptation because it has a very complicated relationship with the LGBT community, and adapting it has a ton of room to go wrong,

@kleptomage
I saw it just a few years ago, loved it. Didn’t know it was getting a movie.

@Lord WyrmSpawN
The trailer dropped during the Super Bowl.

@Applepie2010
Looks like it will either be one of their weaker entries or surprisingly good. No middle ground with something like that.

@Thanotos Omega
I really wonder if they’re gonna make them become a couple at the end of the movies. It could go either way.

@♥♥Princess♥♥Celestia♥♥
I certainly hope they resist the temptation.

@♥♥Princess♥♥Celestia♥♥
It’s complicated as hell, on the one hand it’s truer to the intent as the whole fiarro thing is just there to keep the book from getting banned for being to blatantly about wlw, on the other hand dumbass homophobes watch movies so potentially lost money,

This ain’t like if the announced a my life as a teenage robot movie and decided to make the trans fan reading canon, the story is about how the leading ladies love each other and how they are divided by their approach to enacting changes in society,

Madam Web reviews are out.

It ain’t looking good.

Gotta love how Vampires in disguise dress like this at modern day parties where everyone else is wearing hoodies and t-shirts yet they somehow don’t get weird looks:

did you know theres a league of legends smolder now

What’s the point in having drip if you can’t show it off?

Warner Bros. Coyote Vs. Acme Has Caught the Eyes of Lawmakers
Warner Bros might be facing some political issues as a result of shelving the latest Looney Tunes film.

@CaptainXtra
my man we live in a blessed time where you can wear anything from any time period and be as anachronistic or as cross-cultural as possible and won’t get a second glance.

Didn’t this happen when they shelved Batgirl and nothing came of it?

I mean I hope something comes of it. Our economic model is a big enough joke already, tax laws being so backwards that it’s more profitable to not produce a product would just complete the jest.

On a related note, Amazon is currently having a class-action lawsuit over ads being included on Prime

The lawsuit says that Prime is eengaging in false advertising, as the service was advertised as beibg ad free, yet a recent change makes it so that you need to pay an additional $3 a month to remove the ads, on top of the base subscription price
