Consider this your first warning. Those who wish to watch Wonder Woman 1984 on HBO Max now officially have less than a week to do so. The day and date release in theaters, the first in the landmark deal with Warner Bros., will leave the streaming service as of Sunday, January 24th. When it may […]
Wonder Woman 1984 continues to either prove that the HBO Max hybrid release model is not going to work at all or that people are being smart and staying away from movie theaters because there is a pandemic. Either way, things are not going well for one member of the DC Holy Trinity at the […]
On December 25th, Warner Bros gifted HBO Max subscribers with a very generous Christmas present. Wonder Woman 1984, the highly-anticipated sequel to 2017's Wonder Woman, dropped on HBO Max for a month worth of streaming day and date with its theatrical release, the first of Warner's 2021 slate to do so as a response to […]
It's a little weird to be writing about the box office again, and while things are in no way returning to normal anytime soon, it does feel a bit like the pure hell that was 2020 is at least a little behind us. Wonder Woman 1984 continues to have the more interesting box office to […]
To say that Zack Snyder's Justice League is a bit of a mess would not be an understatement, nor is it a condemnation. We are talking about a movie that is four years old. being put back together through footage that was unfinished, footage that was complete, and footage that was recently shot. That's not easy […]
When it comes to Wonder Woman, one of the most recognizable superheroes in the world, has had a long and hard journey to the big screen for some reason. Once Supergirl bombed at the theaters, the movie industry got cold feet when it came to putting lady heroes on the big screen. Elektra and Catwoman just made […]
The much-anticipated Warner Bros' release of Wonder Woman 1984 had its share of ups and downs. Obviously, quite a number from within the entertainment industry remain furious at the studios' decision to have simultaneous releases (for now) of their tentpole blockbusters from now through 2021 and the cat's out of the bag on the Patty […]
Two days after Wonder Woman 1984 dropped on HBO Max and got a limited theatrical release, Warner Bros. announced that they were fast-tracking Wonder Woman 3 with star Gal Gadot and director Patty Jenkins both set to return. That is good news for fans of Wonder Woman, but it was a little concerning because earlier that same month, […]
Wonder Woman 1984 is a strange movie with a long list of flaws, but we're not talking about them here. The movie makes the odd choice of being set in 1984, a time long ago enough now for people to be nostalgic for it. It is a simulacrum of the 1980s, a rose-colored look back […]
When it came to Wonder Woman 1984, one of the big questions going into the movie was 'how does Steve Trevor (Chris Pine) come back?' It wasn't that surprising that director Patty Jenkins and Warner Bros and DC decided to bring back Steve as played by the best Chris. He was an awesome l0ve interest, one of […]
Wonder Woman 1984 is one of the biggest movies of 2020, and going into 2021, it's still the movie that everyone is talking about for better or for worse. There was one aspect of the movie that people are starting to really pick up on, but it is a spoiler on some level, and not […]
It's still weird to see studios so excited over numbers that would have normally gotten someone fired a year, but this is the reality of a COVID-19 world. Yesterday it was reported that Wonder Woman 1984 is the top streaming movie in 2020 despite only being out for five days. We know that Warner Bros. […]
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has forced the movie industry to finally come to terms with streaming. They've been putting it off for years because box office numbers were still good, and streaming services didn't appear to be massive threats yet. So they were not ready for COVID-19 and the idea of movie theaters being shut […]
While Wonder Woman 1984 might not be a critical darling like the first movie was, and the numbers coming out about HBO Max are still a bit nebulous, whatever the movie did numbers-wise, Warner Bros. must be pretty happy because they announced a third movie in the trilogy and confirmed that star Gal Gadot and director […]
The light at the end of the COVID-19 tunnel seems to be on the horizon but we aren't there quite yet. We still need to mass distribute the vaccine before things can really get back to normal or at least whatever version of normal will be possible in a post-COVID-19 world. Wonder Woman 1984 opened on […]
The box office is a fascinating thing to look into right now because there are so many different factors we need to consider when we look at numbers. Even in places where theaters are open, that doesn't mean all theaters are open or how many people they can let into each screening. It's like we've […]
When it comes to 2020 and the box office, things are a little different. And by a little different, we mean a lot different. There really isn't a good way to judge whether or not a movie was a success or a flop because the numbers are so off. Regal Cinema, the second biggest cinema […]
The numbers for the first HBO Max/theatrical release aren't even completely in, and it seems that whatever they are, Warner Bros. is pretty happy with them. There was some talk from director Patty Jenkins about whether or not she would return for a third movie, and she made it sound like a traditional theatrical release […]
The year was 2011, and the superhero genre was really starting to take off in terms of pop culture influence. The Marvel Cinematic Universe was just a year away from releasing Avengers and changing movies as we know it, Christopher Nolan was a year away from finishing his Batman trilogy, Fox had just soft rebooted the […]
When it comes to Wonder Woman 1984, the references aren't exactly subtle mostly because this is a comic book movie, and it takes place in the 1980s, which wasn't exactly a subtle time in the world. So when we got our first look at Pedro Pascal as Max Lord, we all thought the reference was pretty […]
