Got told about this in comments by Constant Reader Aetius451AD. Anyway: interesting. You’ll see why once you watch the trailer. Ach, well, it happens all the dang time in the comic books, too.
Otherwise: heh. I remember 1984: I was a teenager then. Guess they’re aiming at my demographic? If so, I don’t mind. Looks pretty good as a trailer, but I already knew that I was going to see WONDER WOMAN 84 anyway. It’s pretty much a destiny thing.
Ryan Reynolds has seen a niche, and he has swiftly moved to ruthlessly claim it. I am all right with this; and for the most selfish of reasons, too. I’m always down to see a movie like FREE GUY:
I mean, that’s not so much aimed at my demographic as I’ve been outfitted with a homing beacon that this movie has locked onto. Hell, now I want to play the game that the movie is based on. Yeah, I know, it doesn’t exist. I wanna play it anyway.
Ryan Reynolds has no fear. I approve. I dunno if I’m gonna see FREE GUY — although I am gonna watch 6 UNDERGROUND next week — but this here is some good marketing. Ryan has a knack for this, methinks.
This is an insightful point (ware spoilers at the link):

It’s a whose who of cool, but underutilized Star Wars action figures made real.

These two and their collaborators on this show, are the luckiest guys and gals in Hollywood right now. They’re making the show that millions of kids dreamed about as they played with their sun faded action figures in the backyard.
Continue reading So. It’s going to be called GHOSTBUSTERS: AFTERLIFE?A few weeks ago, we reported that the upcoming Ghostbusters sequel had its title released by Italian movie site BadTaste.It. While it was not confirmed by the studio at the time, it is now official, and the film is titled Ghostbusters: Afterlife. And not only do we have the title, but it’s been reported by joblo that we will see the film’s first trailer this week!
I missed the last one. Two? Not sure. But NO TIME TO DIE looks pretty interesting. Although @LASTEXITshirts is correct: the trailer seems like it’s telling you what the whole movie is.
Just dropped.
First impression: there is clearly a lot of stuff going in this that I’m missing because I didn’t grow up on Marvel. But I’m used to that. I’m also sure that the Easter eggs will all be explained to me by lunchtime.
I know that this might be a perverse disappointment for some people: they had issues with THE LAST JEDI*, and some are perhaps ready to renew their subscription.
A good deal. I finally went ahead and picked up The Colour Out Of Space Dark Adventure Radio Theater, which I’ve been meaning to get forever but I had all the other DARTs to get first. But I seemed to have run out of other DARTs to get first, which is worrisome. I kind of liked having the backlog there to chew through.
Anyway, 20% off is nice and there’s stuff in there worth getting.
