Nolte: Woke Marvel Turned ‘Blade’ Into Women’s Film ‘Filled with Life Lessons’

The Disney Grooming Syndicate had originally planned to release Marvel’s reboot of "Blade" this year. You won’t believe the madness that has held it up. Actually, you will… | Entertainment 'Blade' "morphed into a narrative led by women and filled with life lessons. Blade was relegated to the...

Wesley Snipes can breath easy as the best Blade ever.

If you’re tired of Marvel movies with woke plotlines and feminist leading ladies, then that’s too bad because there’s another one on the way. “The Marvels” is gearing up for its 2023 release next week and will star Brie Larson as Captain Marvel. While Lauren Chen isn’t a fan of the Marvel...

Wait. There’s a strike going on in Hollywood? Huh. I didn’t notice.

 

[KLB]

I thought was over

Wait. There’s a strike going on in Hollywood? Huh. I didn’t notice.

I have noticed that in all the pictures I've seen of the picket lines, I haven't seen a single recognizable "actor". So the "actors" don't really care, except when they're nominated for a SAG award I guess...

Wasn't it the writers on strike, not the actors?

 

[DoggyDaddy]

Could be. I thought it was the "Screen Actors Guild" which I thought would encompass the actors too, but I really don't know. Still, you would think they'd show some solidarity if they really gave a crap.

 

[jamil]

Just googled it. Heck they’ve been striking for months! It’s not the big actors picketing. They’ve got theirs.

It was both. WAG has settled but SAG has not last I knew…

Ah. I guess they haven't talked much about them. I heard some stuff about the writers. They had shows stopped. Apparently the others aren't missed as much

The writers are why Fallen and company were off the air and are now back, those shows have no actors.

All the NCIS shows were off for the writers as well. They start again tonight.

That seems odd unless they had episodes done before the strike as the actors are not working to my knowledge…

I see what happened. The commercial was for NCIS Sydney, starts the 14th.

My daughter is in an electricians union out there. No unions are crossing any picket lines.

I also thought the strike was over. I also don’t care if it never gets over.

I know of no one that gives a ****…

This is a perfect examp,e of where AI would be great. Hell most movies now days use a tremendous amount of CGI anyway. Fire actors, use AI, come up with actual good stories, instead of unrealistic and obviously fake special effects

 

[oze]

I know of no one that gives a ****…

I do. But only because I want my daughter to be successful in her chosen profession. She can't do that because her union won't let her work because the poor writers and then the destitute actors are on strike. There are so many goddamned unions involved in any kind of filming, none of which work if even a single one strikes, that it's a miracle any movie or TV show ever gets aired. **** unions.

Interesting that you say that. AI use, current and future, is a major sticking point in negotiations.
