Why Conan when Red Sonja is available?

Fight the Ginger Apocalypse!!!!

Who knows with these low budget artsy indie French auteur filmmakers.

Though a film exploring the themes of Ginger Apocalypse does seem like something right up their alley.

The new Planet of the Apes movies fucking suck! I want men in monkey suits again not all this damn CGI. Also the original movies were far more thought provoking and had a lot of intellectually stimulating debates in them. The rebooted movies are braindead action movies.

I didn't even know there was one another until I saw it and posted the same day here.

Is it already released?

Well the original was written by a certain fellow named Rod Sterling. He had a small TV series called the Twilight Zone.

Liam Neeson will potentially be starring in a reboot of the Leslie Nielsen The Naked Gun parody police procedural movie. Seth MacFarlane is also producing.


Liam Neeson has some nice comedic moments though in his career. He cameo'd on Saturday Night Live once opposite of "Nicholas Cage" pitching film ideas, and was in Ted 2 as well as some other comedic roles sprinkled throughout his career.

On the one hand I'm horrified at what modern Hollywood will do to some of the greatest dumb-comedy to come out of Hollywood.

On the other hand, I do appreciate (if it happens) the seeming-goal of leaning-in to the dumb-comedy by meta gag-casting of Liam Neeson in the role of Leslie Nielsen since I think it's intentionally trying to cause/make confusion with the Liam-Leslie Neeson-Nielsen business (yes, the first one isn't close but I at least have confused the two before and I think it's kind of a thing?).

On the third hand and kind of dovetailing with the first...Tired of reboots and eyeroll tired at scriptwriters trying/having to slide their shit into existing or prior franchises just so a presumed captured-market can already exist for the film...But since that continues to work and I'm just as guilty of feeding it as anyone else, I have no real space to criticize. It just...feels a bit more grand when it's a relatively niche franchise that banked on comedy as opposed to action set-pieces or 'big-name' characters?

So the director of Madame Web movie only made one film before doing her "debut" feature film, which a TV movie. A decent comfy pre-woke era comedy biopic movie.
