The final product wasn't the problem. There were dual strikes, virtually no marketing, and y'all threw the director under the bus before it even came out
"The Marvels" is the MCU's biggest box office flop.
Disney CEO Bob Iger says: "[It] was shot during Covid. There wasn’t as much supervision on the set, where we have executives really looking over what’s being done day after day after day."
Not only did Lupita not get the roles her white contemporaries were offered, the few live-action parts where she should’ve been nominated were completely ignored
@Kevin_Jacobsen
It already had bad vibes bc film producers shouldn't produce live TV but I knew it was gonna be the worst when they randomly threw Chloe her Best Director Oscar like it was a Razzie
@hiimbobbi
Just another case of a perfectly nice movie suddenly becoming bad bc peoples' faves in the awards race weren't winning. Happens every year. Awards season is a curse.
‘Wizards Of Waverly Place’ showrunner confirms Alex Russo was bisexual and wanted to do more with Alex and Stevie’s relationship, but they weren’t allowed by Disney Channel at that time.
THR reports that Jenna Ortega was either never contracted to be part of ‘SCREAM 7’ or, if she was, she asked for “too much money”.
No, this is not a joke.

Saw Barbie in the most hazardous possible climate with a terrible crowd and I’m still a changed woman. Unlike anything I’ve ever seen.
I forever wanna be her

Busy Philipps is getting a new late-night talk show.
The host of the short-lived E! talker "Busy Tonight" will return to the genre with “Busy This Week,” which will stream on shopping network QVC's streamer, QVC+.
Tis the time of year when y’all stop liking movies bc the film you want to win awards isn’t & I’m here to tell you awards don’t make films good or bad & you can like more than one thing!
My film bros.
If you're DM-ing a film gal on the regular and she responds with less than a sentence or doesn't respond at all, maybe stop & reconsider your choices.
Touch some grass.
This rule of thumb works for non-film person settings
I love

, easily in my Top 10 of the year, but the fact I still see people predicting it for Best Picture… y’all come on.
#EverythingEverywhereAllAtOnce
not only has gotten the guild support it needs, but it’s also won on a preferential ballot (PGA). It’s winning.
Very this.
Just bc somebody disagrees doesn't mean it's an attack on you personally. Untie your identify from that TV show/film/musician & just like what you like. You don't need validation.
Some of you have to take deep breaths on here. It’s art. It’s movies, music and shows. They’re fun. No need to go red in the face threatening people if they don’t like something you like. Please actually get a life.
@hiimbobbi
It’s also most theaters needing to be updated and/or not maintaining their systems to properly show these films. It’s like how Netflix will just toss something on their service & it won’t look or sound right bc it wasn’t created for that specific system.
Y'all,
@lizzo
is a real one for using every single tour stop as an opportunity to affirm, support, and uplift the LGBTQIA+ community & call out the dangerous legislation in every state.
Every touring artist with queer fanbases should be doing this.
Anyone who thinks Greta “sold out” by working on the Barbie movie doesn’t know how bad it is out here. Every studio film I’ve been hired to write was based on IP. It’s all movies based on candy, toys, board games, video games, remakes… This is the job pool right now.
Michelle Williams on Kelly Reichardt: “Because she makes films infrequently, she doesn’t have health insurance through the DGA. So, she has a theater named after her at the Sorbonne, but she has to teach [at Bard College] to get health insurance.”
Sally Field, a true Hollywood icon and trailblazer, will receive the 58th SAG Life Achievement Award, a well-deserved recognition of her exceptional talent and contributions to the world, at the 29th

Two fave things The Rings of Power
1. Galadriel is a bad bitch. Morfydd Clark saw that Cate Blanchett "step on my neck" energy & said bet
2. I don't have to worry about the women being assaulted like ever
Nickelodeon offered Jennette McCurdy $300,000 if she agreed to never speak publicly about her experiences at the network, which she refused, her new memoir reveals.
I can only fit 4, so we will call it the top 4, only talking about the ones where the moment was so iconic and fun and pleasant that my grandkids will make TikToks about it someday
