Richard Linklater rotoscopes his memories of growing up in a NASA bubble and a Spider-Man-adjacent character gets his own movie. Plus brief reviews of new films from Justin Kurzel and Chris Pine.
The Contractor's great not for the film content but because the financiers are doing a legit The Producers-esque scheme involving a merger, undoing the same merger, declaring bankruptcy every month and still promising/threatening to give us the sequel to Gerard Butler's Greenland.
Love that Apollo 10 1/2 review, especially that last graf about how Linklater may be answering those who critiqued Boyhood based on the title without being overly defensive.
I haven't read the comics so I know nothing else about the character, but Jared Leto seems like perfect casting for someone who flies to Stockholm to melodramatically turn down a Nobel Prize.
IMO one of the reasons WeCrashed is working so well is that there is an automatic gut level dislike/distrust of any character Leto plays.
I'm an MCU junkie, and watching some of my friends resign themselves to seeing Morbius because it's apparently going to start explicitly tying Sony's Spider-Spinoffs to the main universe even has me wondering "Has this gone too far? Must Feige be stopped?"
I like that Morbius is so inconsequential that it doesn't even get a star rating.
