What about Cameron or Jackson? They would count as vision guys, no?
Eh, didn't Jackson get talked into splitting The Hobbit into three parts?. So he's willing to play ball. Cameron, too, going by all the sequels he's signed on for.
I dunno, man. A true company man would have rushed out the sequel in 2012. Fuck, Avatar 3 would be out by Christmas of this year.

Batman will crush Cap, it's really not even going to be close..
Not that this is the be all, end all indicator, but the news of the title came out in the early morning and was still trending at like 4 a.m. CST. That was just for a meaningless subtitle. Twitter will break when the first teaser comes out.

Huh? They had Kenneth Branagh direct Thor. Really, if anything has grouped the directors they've hired together, it's the overall idiosyncrasy of the choices. An indie film director, a guy best known for doing Shakespeare, a tv writer/director/geek god, a briefly massively successful action film writer who had directed exactly one movie in his career, nearly a decade earlier... That's a lot of out of left field choices.
You would think Disney/MS and WB would go on a spending spree to find top notch (at least in terms of name power or knowing what these projects require) directors, but I think Wright's departure illustrates why they haven't. Well that and Ang Lee's Hulk. You have Cuaron, Kosinski (who I have a love/hate relationship with), Andrew Adamson (most low key guy to ever gross over a billion total), George Niofl, and probably a few other guys who I probably missed that are ripe for the picking or not tied down to long term projects. But nope. Did this guy direct that one episode of Game of Thrones? Maybe we should give him a shot.

Wasn't Bateman playing a fuck up too? The guy got a call from a hair salon in Florida while he was living in Colorado just a day or so (may have been the same day) after getting a phone call about identity theft. He just dismissed it. That's a pretty big fuckup.

I agree when you said she needs a straightman I was thinking Bullock was by far the best straight man she's had. I actually prefer her in her TV show well before the last season when they went all Melissa Mcarthy show. She showed a pretty decent range of talents in that show but her movies are pretty awful. In fact I didn't even think Bridesmaids deserved near the hype it got. I guess its the same for Kevin Hart, 99 percent of the time he's not funny. He just keeps talking and talking until eventually his character says something amusing.
In a nutshell, that was his last few movies and his last special. A few hits and a ton of misses.
As far McCarthy goes, I've been intentionally avoiding her work like a plague for the last few years. I just saw The Heat and Identity Thief this month on HBO. If Warner Bros. is going all in on her being a summer smash, it's clear they don't want to deviate from the formula. The plot is basically fat, obscene funny person clashes with an upstanding, boring citizen until the latter finally accepts her flaws (or just plain feel sorry for her), and they tag together for hijinks for the final 30 minutes. You can even outline these movies and do a drinking game. I've set the over/under before she gets an ugly person makeover in Tammy at 70 minutes into the running time. I didn't dislike either movie, but the amount of cliches in each is just astronomical. They're going play a funny song from a bygone era and someone is going sing/dance to it ironically? WHAT?!?! Talk about innovation.

I'm watching The Last Samurai on AMC. Someone needs to make a thread about the most egregious/flagrant attempts to get an Oscar by a single actor/actress in a movie because Tom Cruise's performance here would certainly fit that category. Just overacting for the sake of overacting. You know Watanabe and Hiroyuki Sanada were like, "this fucking guy here" and sighing between takes. They had to be. He is on a totally different page than everyone else.

Striker use to do this a lot in our MMA news/talk thread. I've come to accept his ways.

Yes, he was. Cumberbatch is in it now along with Dakota Johnson.

Jim Ross is on FS1 right now talking about the fight card.

PEOPLE HAVE ME ON IGNORE NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Apparently, Johnny Depp and Benedict Cumberbatch (replacing Guy Pearce due to scheduling issues) are doing a Whitey Bulger biopic.

When he makes me laugh, it's on purpose. That's automatically a lot better than Bane.
(Also, you are so fucking wrong about that it's insane. He was fucking fantastic in The Dark World.)
Thor 2 was like the Avengers in that we actually saw the director masturbate over one of his actors
Wouldn't that be the writers' fault?

Do Renan's interim defenses not count on the records?
They count as interim title defenses.

That's disgusting on two levels.

Didn't he come up with the accent? It originated from some ole school bareknuckle fighter dude or some shit.

WHERE DOES THE CHIN END AND THE NECK BEGIN? SO MANY UNANSWERED ANATOMY QUESTIONS!

Why are people not talking about the several empty Snapple bottles underneath the passenger seat? Those have been there for DAYS.
-
Yeah, except Loki being way better than Bane. Fuck, at least generic bad guy in Iron Man 3 didn't make me giggle every time he talked.
Guy Pearce can bring it in the generic non-regional American accent department.

Bellator made people forget about Dave Jansen. They can do the same for Patricio.

Which is probably why someone like Noam Murro, who basically did the 2nd 300 movie how WB/Snyder wanted him to, is being groomed to direct a GL or WW movie instead.
