Had this amazing conversation with Charlie Vickers and Jamie Campbell Bower about The Rings of Power S3, Sauron, Vecna and all things Middle-earth

lacked pop culture impact please respectfully fuck off like do you even know how it got us kids believing kindness is the ACTUAL PUNK ROCK !?!?!?????!!????
One of the reasons Skydance replaced James Gunn and Peter Safran as the heads of DC Studios had to do with box office.
• ‘Supergirl’ was a massive bomb this year.
• ‘Superman’s $618M box office was not impressive to Skydance either, as the film lacked “pop culture impact” in their eyes.

James Gunn is an inspiration... around the first Gaurdians of the Galaxy release he wrote a long SM post about how he pushed past drug addiction and turned everything around after this intense period of writing…
James Gunn and Peter Safran will no longer run DC Studios.
Jeremy Latcham, who previously served as a producer at Marvel Studios, is taking over DC.

He said he would write hunched up all day long that it ended up requiring spinal surgery. That was badass. As a life long DC fan this exit pisses me off. As a fan of James Gunn I hope this means he's off any corporate control and goes on to do amazing original stories.

Inbaraj is cool but never asserts himself in a way a masala hero does. No sappy melodrama. Has high ego but somehow doesn't take himself too seriously as well. Doesn't need heavy emotional downfall to rage out. He's just fun and cool like a blend of Sherlock and Bugs Bunny….
Scene has that authentic style, energy, and rhythm we rarely get to see here. Every little thing, no matter how small or goofy a detail is, it's all factored in. It might all look casual but everything packs intent..

There’s no one version of this movie that can satisfy all its audience. Very tricky time to make a film out of a story that isn't just a story. So, all things considered, Ramayana succeeds in giving the most agreeable version, and for that it sacrifices a lot.

Stories need human characteristics, human complexity, human flaws to show depth. The movie wants us to treat Ram like a god AND a human but it only ever shows him being a god. Which makes him look and feel plastic. But we are shown a very specific and narrow idea of divinity.
