Movies


Follow-ups/Corrections

WB - All movies in 2021 getting simultaneous VOD release on HBO Max. In order to get around existing contracts that were dependent upon box office numbers, WB and AT&T had to pay out as if the movies had made a BILLION dollars. Legendary Pictures even going so far as to threaten legal action over the announcement. Chris Stuckman thinks this means Theaters won’t have to give production studios as large of a cut as before… apparently he doesn’t understand corporate greed.


Spider-Man 3

Alfred Molina is returning as Doc Oc.https://deadline.com/2020/12/alfred-molina-doctor-octopus-spider-man-3-1234652377/

Is Brie Larson getting the ax? There is word that either she will be recast in the Captain Marvel role, or upon the introduction of Rogue, they will go something similar to the comics/animated series and have Rogue supersede her. What with Captain Marvel NOT factoring into phase 4 at all as far as we can see, either is entirely possible.
