You follow Grace Randolph, who said Jacob Tremblay (aged 14 at the time) wasn’t attractive enough to play Percy Jackson.

James Gunn is a pedophile and unemployed

Ellison, like Zaslav and Chapek before him, is going to learn that folks do not like asshole media owners/execs making obvious bad moves that the public can see were poorly advised and flawed.

Before, nobody cared what he said or did; now everything is under an ultra-microscope.

@Steele131 Same.

Rip Stacy Keach a great actor and a great guy to work with. Pouring out a duff for him now.

Hi, person who started reading Marvel comics regularly in 2001 here. The Avengers in general were so unpopular, the Italian publisher canceled all the monthlies except THOR (where AVENGERS was the second story) and rebranded IRON MAN and CAPTAIN AMERICA as quarterlies.

I need to know what 30 year old white guy made up the rumor Iron Man was a C-list Marvel hero before MCU despite the fact he’s a founding member of the Avengers and was in like almost every pre-MCU project under the sun

[HiTop Alex @HiTopFilms]

Never Stem, I feel close to you because back when I was 18 years old you called my partner, at the time, a "c•nt" for helping me make YouTube videos, and I feel even closer to you after the last decade of you spreading misinformation about that video.
But the thing that makes me feel the most connected to you, is the idea I've pissed you off since I was a kid, a twirp, and yet, you were already a full grown man, and here we are.

[Max Borg 🇫🇮 @IMDBorg]

@Emiliovic1337 @Stunt_ManMik3 That’s the main mistake Marvel made post-ENDGAME: not understanding the Avengers should team up even if the threat isn’t a universe-ending one.

[Max Borg 🇫🇮 @IMDBorg]

@reneisrlycursed @CyberJonker And the only reason that movie was as successful as it was is because Tom Cruise and Jerry Bruckheimer insisted on releasing it in theaters. Multiple streamers tried to acquire it during the pandemic, and Cruise shut down those talks every single time.

[Max Borg 🇫🇮 @IMDBorg]

The only DC comics he’s read are non-superhero stories that take place in DC.

[Ron Marz @ronmarz]

If Ben Shapiro really does read DC comics, he's understood none of them.

[Comrade Rodrigo Perez @yronlyhopes]

As long as studios keep treating DC like Marvel and expecting the same Marvel-sized success, it’s doomed to fail, period.

There is already one Marvel. You cannot give people a slightly different version of the same thing and expect the same cultural impact or box office.

[Drew McWeeny @DrewMcWeeny]

One of the reasons Marvel still owned Iron Man outright was because every time anyone tried to get a film made, it stalled out because no one outside of comic readers knew the character or cared. Spider-Man, Hulk, X-Men... even Daredevil was considered a better bet pre MCU.

[James Vanderbilt @jamesthevan]

I had the terrific good fortune to direct Stacy Keach in TRUTH. A tremendous actor, completely egoless and up for anything. Funny as hell too, there’s a reason he’s in the best Cheech & Chong movie. A leading man, character actor, and comedian, he could do it all. A legend. RIP

[L @Steele131]

You can’t have Avengers and Brand New day numbers in a year. Skydance wants billions without any of the build up or audience. Brand New Day was almost 20 years of MCU and audience trust. Another reboot for DC and we will be back to square one. And another reboot in 4 years

OBSESSION was submitted to the Golden Globes as a comedy, and I asked producer Jason Blum to weigh in on that. His reaction cracked me up:

[Max Borg 🇫🇮 @IMDBorg]

@GoToThePictures I saw three films, and I talked about two of them. You’re not even a good stalker (btw, your hopes of seeing me in October were for nought).

[Max Borg 🇫🇮 @IMDBorg]

You fantasize about murdering people’s pets, and made an AI video about it (which you then deleted because like most people of your ilk you’re a coward).

[Going To The Pictures @GoToThePictures]

Remember, James Gunn fans detest Henry Cavill because he's classy, respectful, polite and believes in God. They love James Gunn because he fantasies about sexually molesting children. These are just facts. 🤷‍♂️
