Why isn’t a Black Widow movie a priority for Marvel? That seems to be the question of the year. Scarlett Johansson’s popular assassin character was a huge reason why Captain America: The Winter Soldier was a massive box-office success and the actress herself has expressed an eagerness to see the character have her own movie. It’s downright laughable that between the prolific Marvel, DC, X-Men and Spider-Man franchises not a single concrete announcement has been made about plans to produce a film with a female lead. (Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman is closest, but it’s still a matter of when.) So what’s the hold up? As far as Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige is concerned, “It comes down to timing.” And that, I’m afraid, doesn’t sound exactly right… isn’t “timing” also just another way of saying “this isn’t our priority?”
As for Feige’s question of whether they should put an existing franchise on hold to make room for a female-led one, why not? Do we really need the confirmed Captain America 3 and Thor 3 before we even get Black Widow 1? Is the logic there that both Cap and Thor have established box-office clout? If having a known quantity in the leading role is the concern, then why not Black Widow 1 before the comparatively esoteric new kids on the block Doctor Strange and Ant-Man? There’s no way to logic around the fact that Marvel is dragging its feet on this matter.

(( OOC: I always thought the film version was a little bit over-the-top, although it is beautiful. But it doesn’t quite fit my head canon of Rowena, I think she’s a little more down to earth than that. I wanted the diadem to still be beautiful, but also simple and practical. ))
in case that post was tl;dr: please support The Great Wall movie, this whitewashing accusation is spreading so far the chinese production team themselves had to speak up against it
“In many ways ‘The Great Wall’ is the opposite of what is being suggested. For the first time, a film deeply rooted in Chinese culture, with one of the largest Chinese casts ever assembled, is being made at tentpole scale for a world audience. I believe that is a trend that should be embraced by our industry.” - Zhang Yimou (director) (source)
Why are there not more movies about asexual spies. How many spy movies have they made where they get seduced by the enemy?? An asexual spy would be a fantastic asset and a great movie. I propose a new film called Agent Ace.

Put your music library on shuffle and tell us the first three songs that came up:
4 Minutes - Glee cast Version (because I’m trash)
Where is My Mind? - The Pixies (I mean i know this is the OG, but honestly any cover or rendition of this song is <3)
Flaming red Hair - the Lord of the Rings Soundtrack (Because this song is literally impossible not to dance to when you hear it)Last thing you bought online: A new backpack for my new job! It’s really cute with forest print on it, and it totally has enough space for a lunch box!!
Any phobias or fears: I’m terrified of the dark.
How would your friends describe you: Bitch is trill af
Who would you take a bullet for: I mean obviously my family and closest friends, but I feel like if the stakes were really high, I would be willing to take a bullet for Dylan O’Brien. He just seems like the kind of person that would really appreciate that and then visit me in the hospital afterwards, you know?
If you had money to spare what would you buy first: Plane tickets.

have we all collectively agreed that film adaptations are to be rated on a scale of “holes” to “isn’t it too bad that they never made a movie of avatar the last airbender?”

all the reviews for atomic blonde are like “its an empty aesthetic film where charlize theron just dresses up in nice clothes, kicks the shit out of dudes, and has random sex scenes with women” as if that wasn’t my dream action movie
Aren’t “typical” action movies just a bunch of macho guys in cool clothes/cars kicking the shit out of dudes and having random sex scenes with women?
I wonder what else they were expecting o_O
(and yeah seconding the dream action movie remark, I AM A HAPPY AUD 8))
yep, sounds dandy to me.
I had the pleasure if seeing “Beyond the Farthest Star” on October 18, 2013 at the Cinemark West Plano in Plano, Texas.
I have seen several faith-based films. In each case, I left the film feeling like I had just watched a made-for-TV movie or an after school special. As a result, I was a bit skeptical going in to see “Beyond the Farthest Star”. While delivering a good message, this genre often “preaches” to the viewer, and in many cases seems to lack in quality acting, writing, direction, and production. I understand filmmakers for this genre are limited by budget, but I do not watch a film for its potential.
“Beyond the Farthest Star” has forever changed my expectations. With regard to writing, acting, production, cinematography, soundtrack, and score, this film can clearly hold its own up against any secular film. The plot was engaging and complex. The acting was not only believable, but also moving. No single actor stole the show, but rather the entire cast pulled equal weight. For the duration of the film, I was lost in a story and was quickly committed to the characters—a feat not easily accomplished in many mainstream films. The beautiful score was moving and enveloping without being distracting. Lastly, while clearly touching on a faith-based message, “Beyond the Farthest Star” did not preach to the viewer.
Frankly, I do not go to the cinema to be spiritually moved. I go to be entertained. It is my hope that potential viewers are not turned off from watching this film based on prior faith-based films. I am confident any non-believer or fan of dramas would equally enjoy it. “Beyond the Farthest Star” is a refreshing change for faith-based films and has set a new standard for all dramas.
james bond wasnt even that good of a secret agent someone managed to film everything he did
Explains why Black Widow doesn’t have a movie.
