Hector, since you mentioned Space Jam 2 earlier, I watched it with my son the other day and thought it was quite bad. Just not funny. Some of the visuals were great and the concept was fine but the jokes just aren’t there or fall flat.Comment

Yeah, that’s what I hear. I can watch it on HBOMax right now, but not feeling it. I wasn’t even too crazy about Michael Jordan’s original Space Jam to begin with. Imagine the new one, lol. But I might give it a glance over the weekend.sigpicComment

I'll wait for Black Widow to hit the streaming channels for free. I've always been under the impression this was a late entry in that original storyline that concluded with Endgame. As well as a sort of last hurray for that character. On the surface it doesn't appear to have any connective tissue to the current storyline created from the streaming series that seem to be building towards bigger character reveals in Dr. Strange and Spider-man No Way Home.Comment

I would agree with this statement. It would seem before watching, it would be a end of line statement for this character and not moving the needle, but the truth is it's much more than that. Some new characters introduced, and yes setup for Disney Plus as well as some MCU movies as well. I'm hoping a Red Guardian series or movie might happenComment

'Black Widow' star Scarlett Johansson is suing Disney for breach of contract over its release of the film on Disney+ the same day it opened in theaters
I can't say I really blame her. Sounds like she was screwed out of money that other Disney execs took to their banks by shifting things over to Disney Plus. Hollywood accounting has always been screwy, with many stars loosing "participation" money because their hit movies somehow miraculously never made a profit. Now streaming has added a whole new wrinkle to this.
I heard on several Disney insider podcasts that Feige was very much against Black Widow going to Disney Plus during it's theatrical run. That contract may have been a big reason why.
Stars have sued studios and worked for them again. I think Shatner and Nimoy sued Paramount multiple times, but they'd win or settle, then be back to their pointed sideburns by the next film.

money talks, and if the studio see money in working with an actor/actress again, they will do so. Shatner and Nimoy sued over likeness rights, as i recall, and they won.Comment
