Venom was early 2000's B-level comic book movie that I actually enjoy because of the Eddie/Symbiote banter. Excited to see what Serkis has done with the sequel.
Re-watched Batman Returns this weekend after that Keaton suit reveal and many of the decisions Burton made are so frustrating. I love a lot of his work but he values the art of a scene over logic a tad too much in Returns.
Theaters or HBO Max? Warner Bros. movie plans take shape as Discovery merger loomsThe studio’s 2022 theatrical film lineup features five DC movies: “The Batman” with Robert Pattinson, “Black Adam” starring Dwayne Johnson, “The Flash” with Ezra Miller, the animated feature “DC Super Pets” and James Wan’s “Aquaman 2.”
“This movie has to be played on the biggest screen around the world, and the studio gets that as well,” said Wan, who directed two “Conjuring” horror films with the studio.
Additionally, Warner Bros. has mid-budget DC movies on the way for streaming, “Batgirl” and “Blue Beetle.”
I'm guessing Blue Beetle is considered "too risky" which is why he's headed to HBOGlad it sounds like things with Wan have smoothed out.

Not bad
Wide Shot: Inside Warner Bros.'s risky streaming movie strategyHow will HBO Max and Warner Bros.'s DC strategy dovetail?
Emmerich: HBO Max presents a huge opportunity for DC. It allows us to make high-quality mid-budget superhero movies that reintroduce lesser-known DC titles, while also crossing over stand-out characters from our bigger films into original series.
Connecting the DC cinematic universe with Max gives our fans more ways to explore the DC multiverse and more chances to enjoy more great stories with these beloved characters.
Which is what many of us were hoping for when HBO Max became a thing. Of course now since they are doing it the "WB Sucks At Everything *garble* *garble*" crowd will rip them for doing exactly that.
Blue Beetle on HBO Max makes all the sense in the world and gives that film opportunities that it might not have at the cinema. Different expectations, different thresholds and easier engagement.
Nah, a company trying to brand itself as the king of diversity then dumps Batgirl and Blue Beetles on streaming Has HBO Max even gone worldwide yet?
That's like Disney releasing Black Widow, Black Panther & Shang Chi on streaming only, come up with a bunch of excuses and talk down their potentials.
