Glass Onion at least not releasing before Mid October will close out BFI on October 16th Aug 03, 05:38
Fingers crossed I can catch it during my short TIFF stint. {nm} Aug 03, 05:48
Greatphase: I'm also pretty certain the Green Lantern HBOmax series was canned a while ago. Aug 02, 22:19
it's certainly typical for incoming studio heads to cancel their predecessor's projects that are in development Aug 02, 22:30
Surprise! LUCK is playing at Harkins Theatres this weekend Aug 02, 21:47
Cinemark also is Aug 02, 21:52
Picturehouse has reported in the past but I cant imagine Apple would let them {nm} Aug 02, 21:55
Yeah, it was always getting a select theater release for Oscar consideration. It isn't bad. Has its moments. {nm} Aug 03, 04:21
Leslie Grace is an incredibly talented actor and this decision is not a reflection of her performance. {nm} Aug 02, 21:20
Weird they single her out. {nm} Aug 02, 21:22
Because of the backlash. MKEAT, JKSIM and BFRAS are veterans who aren't hurt by this. {nm} Aug 02, 21:26
Zaslav needs to greenlight a $200M theatrical BATGR starring LGRAC. {nm} Aug 02, 21:22
They probably do have another project with her which would explain the statement mentioning her {nm} Aug 02, 21:28
In the Heights... Again! {nm} Aug 02, 21:29
There will still be backlash if they cast anyone else as future Batgirl. {nm} Aug 02, 21:30
and just to pile on here, why wouldn't you think this character isnt one of the most valuable characters you own?!?!?! Aug 02, 21:36
WONDER WOMAN made $800m worldwide! Why flush BATGIRL down the toliet? {nm} Aug 02, 21:38
they can spin it however they want. Alan Horn has a lot of handholding to do, fast, b/c creatives are losing their **** tonite Aug 02, 21:32
Optics on cancelling a film with the lead being a POC and then holding out for Ezra "troubles" to blow over...... {nm} Aug 02, 21:41
also of a piece with Gordita Chronicles being canceled last week for no better reason than “HBO Max doesn’t do family anymore” Aug 02, 21:44
Would appreciate a Mel Brooks take on these events. {nm} Aug 02, 21:33
CARA: AFTR4, DFAD, BLDMN, STARN have been rated Aug 02, 19:57
Yeah this is fairly common for animated films, but they usually aren't in post. Newt, Me & My Shadow, Boo U for example. {nm} Aug 02, 18:09
There's like dozens of cancelled Disney Animated Feature Films for the curious. Aug 02, 18:16
WB should sell the film to Netflix. WB will make profit, and the film will definitely become a Netflix hit. {nm} Aug 02, 20:30
if you're purportedly dumping a film for "taxes" then selling it at a profit actually defeats your purpose {nm} Aug 02, 20:39
Some tweets from a few people saying there is more bad news coming about DC...(I will guess Blue Beetle) {nm} Aug 02, 21:06
OUCH.... Director of Blue Beetle making some comments about studios cancelling Latino stuff. {nm} Aug 02, 21:10
Sources don’t expect other films to get killed because of this expiration date. {nm} Aug 02, 21:16
The director, Michael Kurinsky, is trying to drum up support for WB to reverse their decision on Twitter {nm} Aug 02, 17:50
The full interview Aug 02, 17:51
DL: Janet Yang elected AMPAS President replacing David Rubin Aug 02, 16:28
VA: Michael Keaton only had 5 scenes in BATGIRL. He didn't train Barbara... Aug 02, 15:13
Anyone worried The Flash will get canned now (even a little) Aug 02, 14:31
Flash has more than double the budget of Batgirl. {nm} Aug 02, 14:32
Delay, reshoots, recasting, no release, streaming only or everything is peachy? {nm} Aug 02, 14:34
Studio is hoping they can delay release until Ezra Miller stops being "Troublesome" {nm} Aug 02, 15:43
While he still breathes could be a long time. {nm} Aug 02, 15:56
Has he been found, yet? {nm} Aug 02, 15:57
As far as anyone knows no he hasn't. Aug 02, 23:07
Maybe he joined Armie Hammer in his time share business. {nm} Aug 03, 05:21
Sharon Waxman: at the moment, 10,000 people are reading Umberto's story on BATGIRL. Aug 02, 14:26
Duffield (who is writing a King Kong anime for Legendary): "Well that's the end of Warner Brothers" Aug 02, 15:11
DL: Word just came down this week that BATGIRL would be shelved according to sources close to the project Aug 02, 14:43
"is in the final stages of post-production" {nm} Aug 02, 14:43
i'm guessing Alan Horn didn't recommend this {nm} Aug 02, 14:48
He officially just started yesterday, so he'd be a go getter if he did. ;) {nm} Aug 02, 14:52
sort of the type of decision you'd think he was hired to consult Zaslav about {nm} Aug 02, 14:55
also, here come the lawsuits one would surmise Aug 02, 15:19
At this rate, Michael Keaton will end up owning Beetlejuice. {nm} Aug 02, 19:43
With a big enough fan campaign #ReleaseBatgirl, it will eventually come out. Fantastic Four 1994 came out. {nm} Aug 02, 14:18
THR: WB is also shelving the 40 million SCOOB: HOLIDAY HAUNT in addition to BATGIRL. Aug 02, 14:09
No IPO to short...........Boooooooooooooooooo {nm} Aug 02, 14:10
This really disappointing for all fangirls. Even if it's terrible, who does it really hurt if WB release it on streaming? {nm} Aug 02, 14:11
Re: BATGIRL {nm} Aug 02, 14:12
I agree this is extreme. Maybe they need reshoots and thats' to expensive. Test screenings must have been awful. {nm} Aug 02, 14:13
Recap of reactions to the test screening, they were not great, but they also were not "no way WB can release this!" Aug 02, 14:16
Besides how to explain MKEAT, that they need or want to take the write-down now could be a factor. {nm} Aug 02, 14:19
Is BLUBT "blockbuster scale"? {nm} Aug 02, 14:27
They hadn't already started production on that prior to the theatrical upgrade, so maybe they bumped it up in time? {nm} Aug 02, 14:32
NY Post: ‘Irredeemable’ ‘Batgirl’ movie gets ‘shelved’ by Warner Bros. despite $70M price tag: source Aug 02, 13:15
This is not official. But think the chances it goes to steaming and no theatrical release are going right up. {nm} Aug 02, 13:16
Variety article seems more definitive (link inside) Aug 02, 14:04
Mayimbe seems to believe it, and he usually has sources he can double-check with... Aug 02, 13:30
That would be TERRIBLE. {nm} Aug 02, 13:39
Wouldn't they prefer to fold Discovery into HBO Max? Max has much more name recognition than Discovery {nm} Aug 02, 13:39
Keep HBO and fold HBO Max into Discovery. {nm} Aug 02, 13:42
it was announced some time ago that HBO Max and Discovery networks would merge. there's no way they abandon the HBO Max brand Aug 02, 13:50
Grace Randolph is confirming. {nm} Aug 02, 13:41
Tweet from Grace Randolph with more rumors Aug 02, 13:44
WBD's earnings call is after market close on Thursday, so I'd imagine more leaks leading up to it. {nm} Aug 02, 13:51
because the test screening reactions while not great, were not OMG this is BATMAN & ROBIN: PART 2 {nm} Aug 02, 13:43
THR conforming Batgirl is being scrapped. Aug 02, 14:04
225M shares held LONG...SMACKDOWN...... {nm} Aug 02, 14:07
NYP: “Batgirl” will be completely “shelved” by Warner Bros.[BATGR] Aug 02, 14:06
The September shoot FITA lists is probably 2nd unit location shooting and cast will probably all be indoor sets. {nm} Aug 02, 12:58
EW has confirmed that Jared Leto and Jamie Lee Curtis are in HAUNTED MANSION with a source close to the production. Aug 02, 12:23
Variety: Ann Dowd joins THE EXORCIST sequel. Aug 02, 12:04
Variety: BULLET TRAIN 30 million (vague mention that others expect higher), EASTER SUNDAY $5-7 million Aug 02, 12:00
DL: Sorry DC&MCU, The Daniels have signed a 5 year exclusive pact with Universal (similar to Jordan Peele's 5 year contract) Aug 02, 10:41
Great! I thought they would be a good match for Secret Wars, but let them continue to make original movies {nm} Aug 02, 10:55
