FOX *CBM thread - RIP STAN LEE - Dark PhoeniX 06/07/19

[...So]

I mean he is a screenwriter so it makes sense from his perspective... I would say the same **** if I were in that profession.

Or do better.. maybe if fox made better movies, they'd be getting at least a bill for every xmen film

 

[...So]

.

 

[IATT]

So true..but like everything else in this thing called life, easier said than done.

They have a ton of material to pick and choose from.. these dudes decided that stuff wasn't good enough for them

No one was asking for these dudes to reinvent the wheel.. just adapt the damn thing, where practical make changes

Get people who at least like the subject matter or character(s), like with deadpool

 

[rfx45]

nvm

I don't even want to get into it

 

[shogun]

I would blame the studio more than the writers. They could have written some good stuff but the higher ups were like naw, we need scripts that suck since that is the fox standard.

 

[IATT]

with fox, if i had to guess i'd put it on singer and kinberg

 

[Fozz]

Interesting.

Fox/Disney rumored merger has implications beyond the mcu

Netflix can get more expensive

https://www.cnbc.com/2017/11/06/disney-fox-potential-merger-makes-it-tough-for-netflix.html

Netflix is only going to get more expensive or Disney creates a larger streaming service and Netflix continues to lose money.

Netflix will be fine. They just have to keep the original content coming.

 

[IATT]

Netflix will be fine. They just have to keep the original content coming.

yup.. they keep pushing their own original content, they'll be good.. kevin spacey mess hurts, but they obviously got other huge properties

 

[Mark Antony]

Or Disney just keeps winning, and steamrolling everything in it's path to eventually consume netflix as well.

 

[rfx45]

FCC won't allow it

 

[tay1]

Yeah Disney not gonna be some giant monopoly on everything media

Can't wait for the new Scorsese film starring De Niro, Pacino, and Pesci

 

[Fozz]

Curious how much money they lost or will lose since Spacey's Al Gore movie was cancelled, when the film was already in Post Production.

 

[Mark Antony]

I can appreciate a company taking action against assault, all that seems way overboard though given the nature of the act and the timeline.

 

[tay1]

Can't wait for the new Scorsese film starring De Niro, Pacino, and Pesci

Feel like I've been waiting forever for that.

 

[Fozz]

Say what?!

The Irishman

 

[shogun]

netflix pushes out so much original movies and shows now, especially a lot of international stuff. I only get interested and watch maybe 25-30% of it though.

 

[tay1]

That's a good amount. The more original content they have, the less they have to spend to have all the other stuff on there

 

[everysingletime]

Netflix is planning on spending 8 billion on original content

To put it into perspective Disney spent 4 billion on SW

 

[shogun]

They spent a ridiculous amount of money making foreign original content. Their goal was to get more international subscribers and it worked out for them. If they keep upping prices i’d def cancel.

Don't think I said it before but they need to be gone before the reboot is underway.

FCC won't allow it

Disney just gonna have to buy the FCC then.
