The Mummy director fires back, Spider-Man in MCU update, Pirates of the Caribbean passes $650 million and more – Daily News Roundup

June 20, 2017 by Luke Owen

NOT FOR CRITICS It’s becoming a cliched response for directors, but Alex Kurtzman has played the “not for critics” card following the poor reviews for The Mummy. Although completely asinine, this isn’t the first time a filmmaker has fired back at critics for not liking their films, claiming they were made “for the fans” (which suggests […]

Alex Kurtzman calls his Dark Universe non-starter The Mummy “the biggest failure of my life”

April 24, 2022 by Matt Rodgers

“Welcome to a new world of Gods and Monsters” was the optimistically bombastic tagline for the launch of Universal’s ill-fated Dark Universe.
