Awful news. I feel like just about any film fan has some attachment to something Rob Reiner worked on. Just yesterday I briefly talked about Misery with my mom while we had dinner (I'd just wrapped up a listen of the audiobook of the novel and she apparently rewatched the film recently).

Nice. I myself am hoping that if that Super manga ever comes back Freeza gets the ending he deserves.

Sony currently had an ongoing relationship with both, though. There aleays seems to be at least one Sony movie on HBO Max. Currently I know HBO has Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile. They definitely had Morbius for a little bit. Those streaming deals are all over the place recently.

I'm seeing that a bunch of the supposed leftwing/trans/antifascist stuff that was supposedly engraved on his bullets...

Yeah, those were videogame quotes and memes. He was apparently a rightwing gamer raised by a minister.

Well that's just depressing.

I love Nightmare, but Burton isn't even the director! Absolute bonkers list. Gen Z not knowing Big Adventure and watching so much game streaming's got me giving them the side eye.

The most accurate part of this is the "depends what day you're talking to me" bit. 😂

Today I'll say Batman, Zatanna, and Dick Grayson.

I feel like even at this super early stage the DCU already has a perfect setup for Conner, Donna instantly gives you a hook for the WW reboot, and Wally makes the most sense for a future Flash film (but can intro as Kid Flash first). It makes a lot of sense to bring that era to the screen.

Don't eat the pâté.

The one time stunt casting one of the core trio worked was Don Cheadle voicing Donald Duck (and that worked because it was a gag about fixing his voice that was temporary). You can go different on the extended cast (DT17 is great), but the core trio and their "character" voices are too ingrained.

Twisted Tale

They've got a bunch of different book lines, though. Disney's publishing branch kind of throws everything at the wall to see what sticks. I think they're putting out a Golden Girls cozy mystery later this year.

Now get ready for the adaptations of the weird alt universe versions! Sleeping Beauty, but this time half the characters die, those fairies are concerned about Aurora knowing about rapists, and also the princess is suicidal!*

*This is a real Disney novel

I think he'll show up, but I could see it being a voice cameo only if we only see the ice form. Might not make a cast announcement for that.

Storm, Jean, and Rogue for sure (some may not be seen until Secret Wars). I think Secret Wars will have several of the big classic moments (black suit Spidey, for example). Carol's gonna have a run-in with Rogue.

I could also maybe see Liev Sabertooth, but not until Secret Wars.

Nightmare is 100% getting a remake or a sequel. They're throwing too many things at the wall to see what sticks over in publishing to NOT be soft developing ideas for a movie. Lots of TNBC prequels, sequels, and alt versions happening in that line. They did the same to Buffy, and, well...
