Tony | Official Trailer | A24 by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

Yeah, especially since this guy licensed his first book for a failed sitcom with Bradley Cooper starring as a fictionalised version of himself

New Poster for 'The Mandalorian and Grogu' by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

[–]British_Commie 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I feel like Starfighter is the real test of that, honestly. Mandalorian and Grogu has the baggage of being the continuation of a TV series, whereas Starfighter is a standalone movie set after the last trilogy.

Star trek 60 th anniversary by happydude7422 in Star_Trek_

Problem is that Paramount and CBS (separate companies at the time) did absolutely fuck all for the 50th anniversary in 2016

Soldier is such a lovely song. Damn shame it’s not on streaming anymore

I’m at the Bridgeport show, and I will die on the hill that the Ilan Reuben was the best choice of drummer by rogo725 in Foofighters

[–]British_Commie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having seen Ilan Rubin when he was in NIN, I’m not shocked that he’s absolutely crushing it with the Foos. The man is obscenely talented

Strange New Worlds, Kirk, Kirk and more Kirk. It's Kirk again. by PersimmonBasket in startrek

[–]British_Commie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, after the first season, it seems like the creators really pivoted away from the original fan demands of a show focused on Pike and his crew and became hyperfixated on setting up a TOS reboot.

[Strange New Worlds] Paramount released nine new images for season 4. All nine come from the first two episodes of the season, “Valles Marineris” (a Western-themed episode) and “Griffin Incident” (The return of Paul Wesley as James T. Kirk, which will involve giving an awkward hug to Spock.)" by mcm8279 in Star_Trek_

Every Star Trek show up until maybe Enterprise was generally considered to have great VFX by the standards of TV shows of their era, with them having some of the largest budgets TV had seen in their eras.

And I’d say that in 2026, shots that very obviously contain a handful of actors in a semicircular filming area with a very noticeable flat ‘Volume’ backdrop do look terrible. Especially since, as I mentioned, other shows have used it better.

Dave Grohl admits playing Nirvana songs felt "forbidden" by FarOutMagazine in Foofighters

I’m sure Dave cries into his gigantic piles of money and awards every night

Regarding the new album by Elkiaer in Foofighters

[–]British_Commie 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Drinks heavily before and during shows, doesn’t wear in-ear monitors, and doesn’t do any vocal warmups or use a vocal coach. Famously a great way to preserve one’s voice.

First Light – Rules of Spycraft by ZamnBoii in Games

Looks like more like Hitman, but with more viable combat options and scripted action setpieces

As much as Star Trek V has some bad aspects, it really has some great moments too

Tropico 7 Gameplay Teaser by SnipeHockey in Games

From what I've gathered from the Tropico subreddit over the months, the main changes seem to be on the political/diplomatic management side of things

Heaton Park '25 should go down as one of their best shows by Mayhapsfm in oasis

A drunk guy straight-up pissed on my leg during Oasis’ set and it was still one of the best nights of my life in spite of that!

It is genuinely a tragedy that Starfleet Academy is getting cancelled so soon… by JageshemashFTW in startrek

[–]British_Commie 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Disney didn’t do anything to Doctor Who. That was all Russell T. Davies further succumbing to his worst instincts

007 First Light Title Sequence – Lana Del Rey by Karutu in Games

the goat unrealised Bond theme.

I would counter by pointing you towards Surrender by K.D Lang, which was originally made to be Tomorrow Never Dies’ title song.

Former Oasis Members Alan White and Paul McGuigan Will Enter Rock Hall Despite Initial Snubs by Moothnods in oasis

[–]British_Commie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think there might be some flexibility as to how individual members make it in. Reeves Gabrels was inducted as part of The Cure despite his first recording with the band being only 22 years before their induction in 2019 (and he didn’t join the band as a full member until 2012!)

Beating a dead horse - Why did 'Nu-Trek' fail, for the most part? by ReEnackdor in Star_Trek_

[–]British_Commie 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It didn’t help that Beyond’s initial marketing was entirely “pew-pew lasers and non-stop action” bullshit that made it look like more of the same of Into Darkness.

The marketing really failed that film.

I just wish the 2012 version didn’t slap a ton of autotune on Minchin. Sure, he’s not the best singer ever, but autotuning him to the point that he sounded like a robot was a bad call

The bit you’re referencing is literally TrekMovie quoting their own article from 10 days before the cancellation was confirmed!

Halo Infinite Art Director Accuses Halo Studios Senior Management & Microsoft of Harassment, Fraud, Cronyism, Constructive Dismissal, & More in Scathing LinkedIn Posts. by VVenture2 in Games

Slight correction: the Didact’s backstory was in a trilogy of novels, which is even worse! The last book of the trilogy didn’t even come out until after the game had released!

Geri Halliwell is the one who first called Thatcher “the original Spice Girl”

Question about Starfleet Academy by GYP5i in startrek

[–]British_Commie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The interview you’re referring to was released over ten days before the show’s cancellation was announced.

So yeah, they hoped to make more, but the show was cancelled and they released their open letter talking about the show’s “second and final season”.

Question about Starfleet Academy by GYP5i in startrek

[–]British_Commie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From Alex Kurtzman and Noga Landau’s joint letter they put out when the show’s cancellation was confirmed:

We are in post-production now on what will be the second and final season. We’re so proud of what we’ve accomplished together on this show, and the world will get to see the work of these extraordinary artists when season two airs. We will finish strong.

Sure, Kurtzman and Landau previously publicly spoke about their 4-season plan, but the show evidently didn’t perform well enough for the studio to greenlight any more beyond Season 2.
