Star Wars: Andor on D+
ThaOGDreamWeaver replied to ThaOGDreamWeaver's topic in Comic, Hero & Villain Culture
Clearly they don't like the look of it... It *does* have the flying bridge and a little bit of the delta wing common to Imperial/Clone Wars Republic era designs, so I'm thinking either Imp - some kind of superheavy constructor, carrier/troop vessel, or pre-Death Star demolitions vessel - or it is an old Republic-era supercruiser that's been repurposed, either by the Empire or the fledgling Rebellion. If this is introducing the Rebels, something that big could deliver an Imperial Planetary Occupation Facility. Though the weird snub nose doesn't look quite like the old place...? And Lothal was home to an Imp skunkworks, so pulling a Firefox on an advanced TIE fighter would be a nice prize. (Yes, that gag's been used before, but at least I'd get to post this.) -
So the announcement has gone out about the fourth Spidey flick, and... ...yeah, if they go with some of the key elements of the arc it's named for, I'm quite pleased about it. Brand New Day is, handily, a post-retcon incident arc in the books, in which Peter and MJ's relationship has been erased (check) as has everyone's memory of Peter being Spidey (also check... which also handily explains why he wouldn't be called up for Doomsday, as nobody'd know to call him). Sadly I don't think they're gonna rez plz Aunt May for the movie. This is also the era of the Superhero Registration Act, and Pete's decided to opt out of the game entirely. Harry Osborn is also around in this one - though not in full cackling mode, that's his Menace of a girlfriend - and J Jonah Jameson loses control of the Bugle to an even more unpleasant "celebrity businessman". (No end of candidates as to who that could refer to these days.)

Day The Earth Blew Up / Coyote Vs Acme
ThaOGDreamWeaver replied to ThaOGDreamWeaver's topic in Comic, Hero & Villain Culture
So this IS HAPPENING… https://deadline.com/2025/03/coyote-vs-acme-warner-bros-sale-complete-ketchup-1236354552/ Scribbler note: I didn't know CvA is only the second full screenplay from Samy Burch, who used to write audition materials. I guess that was good practice, because May December was nominated for Best Original Screenplay. Not a bad way to kick off a career, but CvA is one weird followup to a very dark comedy. -

Final trailer: More corridors. For “different kind of mission”, read “suicide.” Bix on the farm planet looking happy. Does look like a Talz. They know about the Death Star… “the monster will come for us all”. “Revolution is not for the sane” is a superb line, btw. -

Avengers: Doomsday - Full Cast Announcement
ThaOGDreamWeaver replied to ZacKing's topic in Comic, Hero & Villain Culture
Kinda think the cat's out of the bag now... ...then again, if we're going for multiversal-collapse malarkey, you can still defeat any given character but have another one show up from a different 'verse. Also, in the comics... -
Avengers: Doomsday - Full Cast Announcement

Okay: we have an anno video for the entire cast... And it is worth listening to just for some of the neat musical cues in here too 😄 But for reference, we get - and this ALSO may give spoilers for F4 Thunderbolts, so BEWARE... -
The Cramps - Tear It Up

Regenerating this thread for the Season 2 Trailers... So it looks like the big arc is that Earth's current timeline has been erased from existence. Whether that's the Doctor's fault, some kind of accident, or an Evil Plan of some kind. Also, someone's been playing a lot of Cuphead. And everybody's just gotta have an animated episode as well as a musical these days. But between that and the old Fleischer cartoons, they still didn't skimp on being scary as all hell, so... BTW - while searching, found one of those old Google hidden games...

Day The Earth Blew Up / Coyote Vs Acme

Oddly enough, I have run into a lawyer that size Stateside - and yes, charismatically evil. Also hot. But evil. -

Day The Earth Blew Up / Coyote Vs Acme
ThaOGDreamWeaver replied to ThaOGDreamWeaver's topic in Comic, Hero & Villain Culture
So, adding some news. As Day The Earth Blew Up is doing reasonable numbers even outside holiday season, Ketchup are now going after a bigger prize: Coyote Vs. Acme. The flick is a live action/animation Looney Tunes courtroom drama - and surprisingly biting satire - starring Will Forte (opportunistic but probably good hearted lawyer) and John Cena (definitely evil corporate lawyer). In a nutshell, our New Mexican friend decides to sue for decades of injury and abuse at the hands of clearly unsafe and unworkable products. Underhand stuff vs toon chaos naturally ensues. It was produced by James Gunn, is apparently one of those smart flicks that's written on multiple different levels... ...and became a symbol of the same corporate garbage it was satirising when WB vaulted it for tax reasons. The price to get it out is now a more sensible $50m instead of the $80m to $100m WB were originally asking for. Let's see how that goes... -
Star Wars: Andor on D+
ThaOGDreamWeaver replied to ThaOGDreamWeaver's topic in Comic, Hero & Villain Culture
They may pick it up again in this part. Or parts, if I’ve read right: I’ve heard this season comprises of three interlocking stories with large time jumps between them, dropping us off at Rogue One. So it’s possible she’s involved in one of them, or he spends some of that intervening time doing the looking and we pick it up when he’s back on the trail. Or they just drop and fridge her, which would disappoint. -

Star Wars: Andor on D+
ThaOGDreamWeaver replied to ThaOGDreamWeaver's topic in Comic, Hero & Villain Culture
No fridge so cold as a fridge in space. I'm hoping Tony's too good to go for that ancient, creaking, irritating story beat. Then again, we've only seen two to three minutes tops out of nine hours(ish) of content between these two trailers, and a lot of that was sizzle reel 'splodey stuff. If she must be 'fridged, let her go out in the most glorious double-wide fridge with its own ice dispenser, icing as many Imps along the way as she can. -

Nice little EPK for you - and I think they heard you. We now have a grand total of 3 (three) aliens visible: two posh Senators, and what looks like Chewie's Canadian cousin. Also - I wonder if we know, or will know, that kid running across the wide open prairies... -

Random clips you didn't know you needed
ThaOGDreamWeaver replied to TheOtherTed's topic in Off-Topic
Think you'd need a sensor rig on the towed vehicle as well to monitor for vibrations and path deviation. That reminded me of another "stated experience": depths of winter, going up a hill in the wilds of Norfolk, following a BP petrol tanker truck. Seemed to be struggling a bit with the ice. Then stopped. Then started coming back down. Then the trailer started coming out sideways, occupying the entire road. Luckily there was enough grass verge to duck out onto, but neither I nor my IBS are fond of things like that. As my instructor said: "Remember, 99 out of 100 drivers on the road are idiots." "So I'm supposed to be the good one?" "No, they're an escaped psychopath. People will always, always do what you don't expect, so Remember The Box." Defensive Driving's kept me safe. If paranoid and cautious, to the extent my 6-year-old niece takes the mick out of me. The reaction from the driver felt fairly genuine, but I wouldn't put it past them if they had to run a take 2 (or more) and take 1 wasn't satisfying enough.
