Michael Keaton doesn’t seem upset about Batgirl cancellation: “Big, fun, nice check”

August 21, 2024 by EJ Moreno

We all remember Batgirl and the decision to cancel the film; one person who isn’t looking back at that project is Michael Keaton, who seemingly took the check and moved on. If you don’t remember, Warner Bros. pulled the plug on a $90 million Batgirl, which was already shot and through post-production when the decision […]

Has the Mainstream Audience Outgrown Comic Book Movies?

March 1, 2024 by Tom Jolliffe

Has the mainstream audience outgrown comic book movies? We ponder whether comic book movies have enough audience to warrant such big budgets now… Remember a time when short of being one of the big two of Batman or Superman, comic book adaptations were seen as a sure-fire money pit? We saw failed Punisher, Phantom, Shadow […]

Jason Momoa didn’t recognise Dolph Lundgren when they met on Aquaman set

December 13, 2018 by Samuel Brace

Aquaman

Aquaman star Jason Momoa apparently didn’t recognise Dolph Lundgren when the two first met on the film’s set. With all the costumes, makeup, and whigs involved with a film as fantastical as Aquaman, it’s perhaps not that surprising that some actors didn’t recognise one another when they bumped into each other on set. Well, this […]

The Most Overhated Modern Superhero Movies

February 23, 2024 by EJ Moreno

EJ Moreno looks at a selection of unfairly maligned superhero movies… Nowadays, all we hear is “superhero fatigue,” with audiences and critics growing tired of the genre. As cinema has been dominated by DC and Marvel for decades now, it seems like almost every superhero movie is met with a blah reaction. But that wasn’t […]

Dolph Lundgren calls Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom original cut “really good”, was disappointed by the reshoots

January 17, 2024 by EJ Moreno

We survived the Release The Snyder Cut movement; we almost had the Ayer Cut of Suicide Squad, but could we be looking at a similar vibe for the DC Extended Universe swansong Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom? One of the actors behind the project has spoken up and feels like the film has been chopped […]

David Ayer is “done with DC” and Suicide Squad: The Ayer Cut

January 6, 2024 by EJ Moreno

For years, filmmaker David Ayer wanted fans to see his version of 2016’s Suicide Squad. The film was publically and infamously changed at the last minute, partly due to the poor reaction from Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice a few months before. Ayer often spoke about not getting a fair shot and wanted to […]

January 6, 2024 by EJ Moreno

With social media still as volatile as ever, Amber Heard isn’t often talking about her roles and Hollywood productions as much these days.
