He he, ha ha, ho ho, wanna hear a jo-ker? Well, that's what I'm here for allegedly. Maybe I'll just leave it to the professionals, like Todd Philips, the director of one of 2019's highest-grossing pics Joker. With the future of the DCEU up in the air currently, nobody knows for sure what's going on, but the filmmaker certainly hopes for a future where Batman explores the remnants of Gotham City that were forever changed by Joaquin Phoenix's antics.
You guys saw The Mandalorian finale, right? Crazy shenanigans. Filming it was apparently real tough for Gina Carano, too, who had a heck of a time faking choking to death.
The 2010s were kinda spooky, huh? There's all those politics, wildfires, contaminated lettuce and, of course, spooks, specters, and ghosts. One of the major scary franchises over the last decade would have to be Insidious though. With four films under its horrific belt, it's become a staple of the genre to many zoomers out there. However, despite making loads of cash, nobody knows what's going on with it currently.
Just like all the major slasher franchises, the Halloween series has been all over the place. Most start off strong, like the 1978 original, but by the middle, they're running out of ideas and try, desperately, to inject some fresh blood into a dying property. Friday the 13th tried it when they swapped main villain Jason Voorhees out for a spurned ambulance driver in the fifth installment, A New Beginning, Freddy Krueger pursued a Dream Child for a few films and, for Halloween 5, Jamie Lloyd was almost the new killer.
If you do indeed celebrate it, I hope you folks out there had a nice Christmas yesterday. And if not, I hope your Wednesday was awesome as all heck! Either way, I know for a fact that nobody got a Baby Yoda yesterday. The breakout star of The Mandalorian was unavailable for purchase in any notable form for this holiday season because Disney really goofed by not having anticipated the global need for The Child. And analytics are now suggesting Mickey lost out on Scrooge McDuck levels of cash.
Most of our feline friends are known as having nine lives, are they not? I don't think Tom Hooper's take on Cats will have any left to spare by the end of the month though if I'm being honest. Already a massive flop, being both critically panned and financially devastating, the five people who actually sat through the movie are finding more and more misses by the VFX crew, including Judi Dench's very human hand and very shiny wedding ring.
Rock musician Corey Taylor, lead singer of both Slipknot and Stone Sour, has finished up a horror script and is actively trying to make it into a movie.
