Odds and ends May 9, Clifhanger, The Rocl, and stuff...

What is a stupid way to make a reboot? Vagina...
Here come the Hwite Knights and the Misandrists...
"Your a misogynistic ass!" "How dare you!? REEEEEEEE!!!"
Genderbent reboots are as creatively bamkrupt as "... in space!" Suffix used on any franchise... Even if the movie is Cliffhanger.

Why? Can't an original movie be made about a female Alpinist being forced to stop an evil plot? Also, was Cliffhanger even popular in the first place? Aside the opening scene that was parodied EVERYWHERE...


My whole beef with this whole thing is using women as a gimmick. I'm cool with female led films ie. Alita, Alien, Kill Bill, to name a few... Hell even the Underworld movies, or most of Milla Jovovich's movie career  (not counting the movies based on Capcom games)... it's the whole: "let's  have a Remake with a woman!" That bothers me.

These remakes are relying on people aware of the original in order to watch these bastardizations... At least the Die Hard Remake with The Rock as a handicapped McClane had enough balls to call itself Skyscraper instead of Die Hard...  and it was tweaked enough to "pass" as something original.

The Rock seens to be interested in synchronizing schedules with Kevin Feige... and Rumors are putting wings at The Great One's ankles... Yes, this would mean that If you smell what the Submariner is cooking...
He better show up at least ONCE with the green scaled speedo. This is Namor we're talking about. That is MANDATORY! If this gets ne what I want (4) then so be it...
At least it's not Patrick Duffy...

For every 10 complaints I have about Noelle Stevenson's cultural appropriations of She-Ra, she seems to get one or two things right. One of Bow's two dads, George, is named like that as a nod to George DiCenzo who voiced the Real Bow (and Hordak). And as much as this take on She-Ra insults the original, this nod is a respectful one.
