Bale and most of the new Monster reboots are looking like SNACKS.

wild casting

Born with a lazy eye that naturally resolved, he’s still legally blind.

So he's playing Igor.

Probably not, but I would actually love it if that were the case. It'd be a way more interesting role for him than heartthrob male love interest, etc.

He only got it because his sister is the director. When will Hollywood’s nepotism end?!?!

Maggie Gyllenhaal's The Bride Is a "Wildly Romantic" Musical

A lyrical love story starring Frankenstein's Monster and his lovely bride? You have our attention, Warner Bros.

Damnit! Ah well, at least we’ll finally find out at CinemaCon what the hell Weapons is about!

Warner Brothers strikes again. They're totally giving it the Mickey17 treatment Also, I don't know if I just missed this being announced earlier, but apparently it's a musical?!?

Wait WHAT?

They just doomed it by not only moving it out of Halloween season but also after Del Toro's Frankenstein.

Why is Warner second-guessing like this? Is the movie just not ready yet?

Presumably because, unless I'm mistaken, it was made under the previous regime and also they have no faith in it because it's not a super mainstream movie. Not defending them, they're the worst studio in the business and I sincerely hope they collapse, but that's why. They're not even bothering to seriously market Sinners - a very fun accessible looking movie.

Zazlav has to go. NOW. This nun****ery is getting stupid. Why does he hate money like this? If Disney buys them out, I will have ZERO sympathy for Warner! This is a case where I’ll say “that’s fine, you can have it”!

WB just seems to be in a general panicked state these days. If Superman fails, it's over.

But just being pragmatic, The Bride probably isn't a movie that'll light up the box office in this current state of moviegoing. That said it would certainly do better in October. What this needs is a studio like A24 or Neon distributing it, not WB.

They're not even bothering to seriously market Sinners - a very fun accessible looking movie.

And the trailers that they actually have been putting out for it give away way too much of the movie, which to me is a sign that marketing is asleep at the wheel.

WB is like a parent who has one child they’ve got really high hopes for and place unbelievable pressure on. And then just sort of forgets their siblings exist and doesn’t help with their college fund. Or tell them they love them lol

And Harry Potter is like their kid that died but they buried him in a Pet Sematary to bring him back so they can profit off of him again.

Jesus. Lmao.

They put PTA closer to festival season and brought Creggers’ next film up like 6 months. And I see Sinners marketing all the time lol

Maybe this film just needs more time to be polished? And idk if GDTs Frankenstein going straight to Netflix was some major situation for this film tbh.

They’re an easy target, but pretty much every studio moves things around lol

Fair point. It’s just people being paranoid over Zazlav’s past behavior and Mickey 17 bombing.
