    There it is: Ratner, with sexual assaults allegations, directed a $40 million documentary about Melania. So Trump wants him to be able to make Rush Hour 4.

    Again, the rapist is helping out his own kind.

    New community idea: “Is it Onion?” Where you post an article title and the community has to guess if it’s an Onion article or not.

      I’m actually looking forward to this absolutely bombing, the likes of which would make Tron Ares, Morbius (both releases), and that Spider-Man Movie without Spider-Man, seem like blockbusters.

        that Spider-Man Movie without Spider-Man

        Which one?

        I know you mean Madam Web, and you already said Morbius, but Kraven the Hunter would also fit. Also technically the three Venom films, but those didn’t bomb (but the third did poorly).

          Yeah Madam Web. I kept getting stuck on Black Widow but I knew it wasn’t that lol.

          There was a Kraven movie?

            Yes, there was a Kraven movie. I made it through about 25 minutes of it. Ten minutes longer than Borderlands. I actually watched all of Madam Web. I am still not sure how that happened.

              Honestly I thought the Kraven film was the best after Venom and Venom 2. If it had come out right after Venom the whole Spider-Man minus Spider-Man films would have been on better ground. Morbius was terrible and then Madam Web killed any good faith anyone might have had left. By the time Kraven was out everyone had, rightly, given up.

              (If you’ve never watched any of these films, this is not an endorsement.)

                I tried to think really hard about if I saw the Kraven movie, and the only thing I got was the plot for Spider-Man 2, and I know that wasn’t it cause that was a decent plot-line.

                I’m gonna have to pirate this out of morbid curiosity. Like that time I watched the 2 girls 1 cup video, which I still would recommend over Madame Web and Morbius.

    A real billionaire would have bought the rights and produced it themselves. See also The Expanse.

    Holy shit, raw story is unusable without some sort of ad block. I really need to figure out a travel pihole or something.

    I just do not like Chris Tucker. Like, at all. I just don’t get the appeal.

    I hated his character in Fifth Element. Just the worst. Ruined the movie for me.

    I remember watching the Rifftrax version of Fifth Element and laughing at how they groaned at his parts, LOL. I could not agree more. I don’t know if it’s possible to make a cut that excludes him, but I’d sure like to see that…

    Anyway, I didn’t even know they made three Rush Hours already. Clearly, I’m not the target demo for this franchise. If the world has a fourth, I guess I’ll care about it as much as I cared about the first three, LOL.

      He is completely fucking annoying, and I have refused to watch him in anything else, but somehow Ruby Rhod just works for me. With all the ridiculous stuff in that movie, he feels right at home.

        It’s a scenario where Tucker’s main schtick makes sense in context. Ruby Rhod is basically Space Tucker with a gossip podcast, and his hyper-annoying behavior serves to illustrate how different he, the other passengers, and celebrity obsessed people in that universe are from Corbin’s grounded and sane everyman character.
