Tom Holland’s career cannot catch a break I would compare him to hayden christensen due to them being relevant for big franchises for years But Hayden at least was nominated for golden globes and sag awards before even joining star wars

 

Except Tom is good in those Marvel movies.

 

Hayden not so much

I agree that Ben Stiller, Justin Theroux and Etan Cohen intended Tropic Thunder to be a satirical action comedy, but there’s a big problem when so many miss the point of a movie, or when a satire goes over the head of so many of its viewers. I have mixed feelings about the film; in retrospect, I think that Blackface, like the N word, should just be avoided by non POCs, EVEN IF used solely to try and elucidate and/or mock racism, because the potential for misunderstanding and offense and harm is simply too great. I respect the views of others who disagree with me.

Kirk Lazarus is an allegory of every oscar-chasing “Method Actors” (Daniel Day Lewis, Leo and Bale come to mind) who cross the line for the sake of “inhabiting for the role”, for this context by altering his skin pigment into black and cussing N-word to get into characters.

Well, after Hogwarts Legacy sold more than 12 million copies in just two weeks, WB knew that nothing can stop the success of the franchise. Most people don’t care about what JK says or whatever. But, I’d love new books instead of revisiting the old ones. I’m happy JK will be involved because I know her motivation for this isn’t money. Maybe she wants a new generation of fans.

I think the activists action against Hogwarts Legacy ironically contributes to the game’s success (they brings publicity, lol and game streamers are pushing back againsy them).

As for the actual game itself, HL actually tells a relatively fresh story with great gameplays to engage with gamers hence the massive success

Makoto Shinkai’s latest movie has some really good reviews, is making lots of money across Asia, and was even shown at the Berlinale (first anime film to do so since Spirited Away). Sony/Crunchyroll are distributing it in America. Do you think it has any awards potential?

If Miyazaki is releasing a new film, probably not.

Having seen it, the Visuals were outstanding as usual. Shinkai has a fascination for natural disaster from Japanese Folklore and you will get exactly this.

That being said, I feel like this movie is 15-20 minutes longer than it should be, and if there are several aspects on the movie that feel slightly undercooked.

I got more from Weathering With You (yes the male lead is selfish) and Your Name than this.l, though.

A recent article talks about how many academy members refuse to watch anime: https://www.vulture.com/article/oscars-animation-award-problems.html

Ironic that:

Aronofsky clearly draws influence from Perfect Blue for Black Swan, and Nolan from Paprika for Inception

The entire Pacific Rim is just Evangelion but stiffer and less phylosophic.

They are making shitload of upcoming anime adaptation as its stands.
