    His movies make money don't they?

    Hmm not in the top 10 directors for money though. I'm a little surprised at that. But then again while he has made successful films he hasn't made a lot of them.

    If his movies make so much money maybe he should use all the money he makes from his movies make to make his movies

    I would say that his subject matter makes money.

    Humor can be dissected as a frog can, but dies in the process.

    Cause his movies make money

    Wonder Woman made more money than Man of Steel

    Aquaman made more money than Batman v Superman

    Nobody said Hollywood execs were smart.

    In fact, I’m fairly certain that people dunk on those slackjawed bean counters pretty on the regular.

    I am honestly not really attracted to men. I can sort of objectively look at a dude and go "that is an attractive man" but it doesn't do much for me.

    But that Dune photo...is very hot.

    He managed to make a batman and superman movie that made so much less money than a batman or superman movie should make.

    Kevin Smith came out of it and said "that was joyless" and you could film a action figure for 2 hours and Kevin smith would give it a positive review.

    Did anyone else see that video the guys from cinemasins made when it was announced Civil war and the BvS were coming out on the same weekend? It’s hysterical in retrospect.

    Cinemasins is consistently wrong about just about everything.

    I think I just hate the voice

    And the jokes. And the writing.

    The Kong director really showed them up there, and I will admit to finding joy in that

    I watched it last night and I think I agree with all of that. It was fine overall but Brown is excellent. I would have liked to see more Cavill but I understand not wanting it to become an actual Sherlock Holmes movie.

    I enjoyed Enola Holmes but i was a little bothered that they never really addressed the central question of the narrative.
    Namely, what exactly was Mom up to?

    They danced around it but they never came out and said

    I kinda liked Enola Holmes too. It's slight, a bit twee, but entertaining and can be quite charming.

    Cavill is good, Brown is good. A few fun uses of talking to camera (the 'hang on a sec' move on the train).

    It won't set your world on fire, but it's an above average Netflix movie.
