Make the money back by greenlighting more Reeves-verse projects. Thank/pay me later.

One of the creators said in an interview they tried getting him back but he couldn't due to scheduling conflict.

Turturro is one of the leads in Apple’s excellent Severance series, which is filming Season 2 now. I wouldn’t be surprised if that was where the conflict lie.

That must have been it. According to Wikipedia, filming on Severance season 2 lasted from October '22 all the way through this past April because of the strikes last year. Penguin was shooting for most of that same time. It started in March '23 and wrapped this past February.

It's been a long long time since I was rooting for a movie to fail. X-Men 3 was probably the last one, so nearly 20 years! But after watching the **** pile that was Joker 2, I am glad it's failing miserably.

Lol I’m just curious, what was your beef with X-Men 3?

@Drizzle we literally just had to wait for a week or two, but nooooo we just had to pay theater money for this.

 

[Pennywise]

I don’t know whether to laugh at Joker or cry, leaning towards the former.

It was rushed garbage that Rothman forced to come out before Superman Returns just to get back at Singer. It's a poor movie and ruined all of the set up from the previous 2 movies. Killing Cyclops for the Phoenix Saga was ridiculous also.

I don't hate it as much these days as the likes of DOFP kinda retconned it. But man in 2006 that movie made me angry.

Same man, same.

On top of all that, I hated that they just did nothing with Rogue, Colossus was just there for SFX and symmetry, and more Wolverine shoved down our throats.

And don't forget that behind the scenes Rothman was abusive to Elliot Page.

We can at least apply each other's clown makeup for not having the patience to wait another six weeks or so from now when it'll be on Max for free.

In better news, speaking of Max I caught up with Penguin episode 4. Ho-lee ****, you guys weren't kidding. Milioti is coming for that Emmy. Such a great episode even with Oz barely being in it.

Dude…

When she took the electroshock therapy and then when she cracked Magpie’s skull.


That episode was brutal to watch but soooo good.

Taking everything we later found out about Singer out of the equation, I was kinda mad at him too at the time for leaving the X-Men franchise behind to direct Superman Returns. If it had been a better movie I'd have maybe understood.

I'm sure that a Singer-directed X3 would have been more of the same from X2 but it probably would have been leagues better than both the X3 we got and Superman Returns.

And don't forget that behind the scenes Rothman was abusive to Elliot Page.

You mean Ratner. Rothman's an idiot who failed up but if he's an abusive monster, there's no trace of it on the internet from what I can see.

Y’all’s fixation with Tom Hardy and his symbiote will never cease to amaze me.

I think you misspelled "CINEMA"

I didn't realize you weren't a BJ fan, Ice. Shame, as it's a Spooky Season staple! Gotta love the Juice.
