Huh, this and Jimmy Olsen are the castings that make me most excited!
Those episodes back in the day dropped Usagi off in the modern world, and that storyline was never resolved. If i'm reading this correctly, this one-shot will be the resolution showing Usagi...
A proper new Uncle Scrooge comic is a dream come true! Love Uncle Scrooge!
Will the Traveling Wilburys stuff be phase 2 or 3?
Seeing reports of people going to this in groups and laughing their butts off. Is this dull bad, fun bad, or funny bad? Does the audiences' sobriety at time of viewing change this equation?
The emperor ape leering, saying "you will die!" is giving me goosebumps. I feel that the last few decades we've gotten away from classic, scenery-chewing villainy. We've forgotten how satisfying it...
Holy mackerel! An in-production TV series sequel quickly repurposed as a movie?!
The '90s are back, baby!
I was raised by Cartoon Network. Sure, I'd seen and enjoyed the occasional import as a kid in the '90s (like Speed Racer, Voltron, and Samurai Pizza Cats), but it was around age 10 to 11 that I...
The best part of Oscar season is them putting stuff I missed the first go-round back in theaters.
Pretty great year for movies! A decade ago you'd see all the categories filled with...
Hmmm... if Popeye becomes public domain soon that means Olive has been for a while, right? She was introduced in the comic like a decade before Popeye popped up as a bit part and took over the strip....
If these companies want to keep making money off of these characters after they become public domain the obvious solution is just to make good new movies/shows/comics with them.
Imagine Godzilla...
Speaking of woke... you know, Universal Studios released Dracula in 1931 and then Frankenstein later that year. Frankenstein has got a gay director (James Whale) and a gay lead actor (Colin Clive as...
My boy Anguirus should be in one of these.
Intersting public domain thing: whoever owns the rights to the classic Laurel & Hardy silent movies has been sitting on them for decades, but now, as they fall into public domain in waves year by...
Good.
Being in the public domain hasn't stopped multiple restorations and releases of Buster Keaton's films. It hasn't hurt Dracula or Ebenezer Scrooge. If Disney wants to still make money off...
I loved that. In the 1954 film there's no indication Godzilla is anything but a legend on Odo Island, and they name the monster after the legend. Similar backstory in Shin Godzilla. Happy to see the...
The black and white version of Shin Godzilla has also been playing in Japan recently and it looks pretty great. Would love to see that!
Love seeing Miyazaki and Godzilla hanging in there so well!
I adored hearing the classic Ifukube music reorchestrated in this movie. In the American Godzilla King of the Monsters they reappeared, but they went overboard on adding all the chanting and taiko...
Gotta be Uncle Scrooge, right? Barks had already workshoped the character in several years of Donald Duck comics, he was at his peak artistically, and he had several months between issues to come up...
Indeed it did. The first time this new understanding crept into the series.
Speaking of (spoiler!) the pre-mutation Godzilla we see in the beginning; as a longtime fan that was a wild thing to see. In '54 Godzilla was based on current ideas about what dinosaurs looked like....
Since when have two foreign films from the same country been in the top five of the US box office? I can only think of when the avalanche of imported kung fu films hit America in 1973?
^ - and the Heron is gray, not blue! ;)
It's more evocative of some of Miyazaki's earlier films (especially Totoro and Spirited Away), but from the POV of someone nearing the end of their life. A...
