Reply to comment by FuckStalkers2ndAcc in Any movies you love that are similar to The Batman (2022)? by FuckStalkers2ndAcc
Watch Zodiac too. The Riddler's look in The Batman was inspired by the Zodiac Killer.

This almost entirely dependent on the success of the film. If the film is memorable people remember tunes from it. FWIW I think JW's work on Tintin was excellent.
Also TV themes will almost always thump Move themes for memorability because they are repeated over and over the course of several seasons for several episodes. The theme doesn't even have to be good to be remembered. I am pretty sure more people can hum Batman tv show theme more than the excellent and lauded work of Hans Zimmer and JNH in The Dark Knight.

Reply to comment by MartinScorsese in Why did Faye Dunaway's career not surge after she won the Oscar for NETWORK? by Lili_Danube
Yeah, it was her first win but her third nomination. She was nominated for Chinatown too. Her career was already in basically a decade long surge, 3 Best Actress noms from 68-77.

Reply to comment by TheCosmicFailure in Rebecca De Mornay was the original choice for Tinkerbell in Steven Spielberg's HOOK. Julia Roberts was so miscast that it was part of the reason I didn't like the movie. by Lisieu_Lustre
Although in Peter Pan canon, fairies don't live that long. I believe that is the reason why they have such intense feelings. So Tink really wouldn't have lived long enough to see his return, even if we all clapped our hands the whole time.

Solution: watch the theatrical cut

Requiem for a Dream
Obv this is not a heartwarming family film. I watched it a decade ago. Now that I’m older with different perspectives and more awareness, I really felt the portrayal of addiction and it’s consequences even more than the first time. Never again 😭

Ron Weasley got a pretty bad run in the films. He is a much better character in the book, Rupert did his best, but the writing just made him less enjoyable.

Cyclops in both X-Men timelines. I think Cyclops is an interesting character to dive into but it seems Bryan Singer had no interest in him as the lead character.
XMen Apocalypse should've focused on Cyclops. His own brother that he's pretty close to, dies. And they treat it like a small footnote in the film.

I liked Julia in this! It didn’t bother me at all.

Her career already surged after Bonnie & Clyde, and you can only have so many.

I’m obviously joking, he is definitely an acquired taste. I may or may not have broken up with a girl because she was obsessed with “Mulholland Drive” when it came out.

Irons steals every scene he is in, maybe 3 scenes total?
Tuccis bridge monologue at the end, also fantastic.

Reply to comment by LackingInPatience in Likable characters who are poorly used in franchises by mranimal2
Beat me to it. I like the Disney trilogy even though it has its flaws. One of them definitely being Finn and Poe not having a clear and defined path.
I wish we had more of Rey/Finn/Poe together. One of my favorite parts of Rise of Skywalker is when the 3 of them are interacting.

Idk what happened as I still can’t wrap my head around the fact Faye Dunaway was married to Peter Wolf . The lead singer of The J GEILS Band . They were married from 1974-1978 . I can only wonder to what extent the marriage played in her career.

Didn't Reese Witherspoon do a movie about this topic at one point?

Well, youre looking at a scene that was originally cut from the theatrical version. The scene wasnt in the movie. They added it back because fuck it we gotta make this movie 4 hours for the extended cut

Don’t know why you were downvoted but you’re spot on. It’s extra drama introduced into the movies that isn’t in the books. In the original, Aragorn declares his ancestry, and that the curse would be lifted if they go to battle with him. They accept and go.

She was 35 at the time of The Network. Back then Hollywood wasn't inclined to give diverse and big roles to older actresses. They typically were pigeonholed into specific roles.
