It’s time to #ReleaseTheTrankCut of Fantastic Four
Anghus Houvouras with a call to #ReleaseTheTrankCut… In 2017 Justice League was released into theaters. ‘Released’ like a synthetic virus engineered to numb your senses and lull you into a state of catatonia.

Anghus Houvouras on Ed Skrein’s decision to walk away from the Hellboy reboot following whitewashing criticism… Damn.
