Kim Possible Theatrical Movie Update #5

11/28/2020

0 Comments

 
It has been a rough 2 years, since I finished the script for the theatrically-released live-action film adaptation of Disney Channel's Kim Possible.

For some reason, no one gives a **** about the way, I want to make it, which I take very seriously. Not even my dad give a **** about it.

People think movie theaters are dying cause of the ****ing pandemic! Can't this get any ****ing worse?!?

Kim Possible is supposed to be one of the biggest blockbusters of 2022, which would mark the 20th Anniversary of the Kim Possible cartoon's debut. I want this to happen, very badly.

I mean, what else do you want from a dellusional 21-year-old aspiring filmmaker, like me?

If anyone out there in the movie industry or on the internet is reading this, I hope they understand

Kim Possible Theatrical Movie Update #4 (I Think)

11/10/2020

0 Comments

 
Well, let's face it. It has been a rough 2 years, since I finished my script for the live-action Kim Possible movie (set to be released on August 12, 2022) and I just can't get it off the ground  and that is boring me to death.

I seriously wish there were more people to support this project and NOT think of ways to have it stalled. Let me list as much that has been stalling the production of my Kim Possible movie.

1. too many film classes which are putting too much pressure on me.
2. Disney's ownership of 20th Century Fox.
3. Lack of support from Hollywood in general.
4. Internet fan communities ignoring the #MeToo movement.
5. (worst of all) the COVID-19 pandemic! WT*?

I find all of these ways to stall my projects and/or career unforgivable!

Why the **** can't I receive any support and/or respect for my creative vision for the theatrically-released live action Kim Possible movie, which is in turn is supposed to be the 2nd highest-grossing film of 2022 worldwide, behind James Cameron's Avatar 2?

If any of you have anything to say about this BS issue, type it in the comments below or let me know on Facebook, Twitter, whatever 

And at the very least, see you at the movies.

Tenet review

9/5/2020

Just a few moments ago, I went to the theatre to go see Christopher Nolan's new movie Tenet in IMAX and it was great. It was very safe and everyone had their masks on. I do recommend going to the theaters again, the way I exprienced it. However, that is not why we're here. We're here to talk about Tenet and see if it holds up after all the delays, due to COVID-19 . Before I begin, I a;so recommend seeing the new version of Mulan, if you have the time, because that movie is very good, trust me. Otherwise, give that a rental, when it comes out on DVD and Blu-ray. Let's just move on.

Anyway, so the story of Tenet is as follows: Armed with only one word, Tenet, and fighting for the survival of the entire world, a Protagonist journeys through a twilight world of international espionage on a mission that will unfold in something beyond real time.

So, yeah. Basically, time goes backwards and a team of spies prevent World War III from ever happening.

This film ranks among Christopher Nolan's masterpieces with brilliant performances from the cast, incredible special effects, a great music score and masterful direction. Yet, the film contains a few similarities to one of Nolan's other movies, Inception. However, the two-and-a-half hour running time almost makes it so complicated, you'd have to pay attention to everything.

Outside of that, Tenet is the movie that will save 2020, with the end of the pandemic reaching closer as the weeks go by.

Tenet gets 10 out of 10.

See you at the movies and at this time,stay safe and wash your hands. Seriously!

Live-Action Powerpuff Girls TV Show in the works at the CW. (My Thoughts)

8/24/2020

Just today, I heard that a live-action Powerpuff Girls TV show is in development. The story involves The Powerpuff Girls (Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup as disillusioned twentyseomethings who resent having lost their childhood to crime fighting. Someone on the internet said it reminded him of the edgy fan film of the Power Rangers, back in 2015. How do I feel about this? I feel just as  excited as I was when I heard that Netflix was planning their live-action reboot of Avatar: The Last Airbender.

This is just so cool. I wonder, if it will to a live-action feature film based on the original animated show, in the style of Nolan's Batman films. I can dream, can I? We'll just have to wait and see.

In the meantime, see you at the movies.
