>When people use the term “shots fired” on the internet to draw attention to some hot gossip, the news being referenced rarely fulfills the promise of high drama. But an open letter written by an alleged former Warner Bros. employee to her former place of employment is truly a diamond in the infinite digital sea of garbage. This letter, posted on the website Pajiba, isn’t “shots fired.” It’s “The nuclear codes have been entered.” The ex-WB staffer gives only the name “Gracie Law” — Kim Cattrall’s character in the movie Big Trouble in Little China — but she sure throws a lot of shade at studio chairperson and CEO Kevin Tsujihara, as well as the “mastermind” of DC’s film slate, Zack Snyder.
>You just don't get it. And it's not just DC movies, it's your whole slate. Jupiter Ascending. Get Hard. Hot Pursuit. Max. Vacation. Pan. Point Break. Fucking PAN, you jerk. People lost their jobs and you decided Pan was a good idea. You think another Jungle Book is a good idea.
>What are you even doing? I wish to God you were forced to live out of a car until you made a #1 movie of the year. Maybe Wonder Woman wouldn't be such a mess. Don't try to hide behind the great trailer. People inside are already confirming it's another mess.
Damn the WW trailer fooled me. Not saying it looked great, but I thought it would be DCEU's first fresh. I blame Gal.
Kevin Foster
between sony and WB i'm beginning to wonder if there's a controlled, planned effort to completely tank the movie industry
Xavier Phillips
I fully expect wonder women and Justice league to be hot steaming piles of shit but will make money regardless because you autistic cunts and normies will pay to see it simply because it says a name they recognize
Brody Parker
muh geoff johns tho
Nolan Peterson
>it's a shots fired meme episode
Leo Evans
Isn't this what everyone's been saying about WB and Tsujihara for a while though? Ignoring their DCEU shit, everything else has also been a shitheap.
I don't know how people can legitimately believe he's going to fix anything. He's Snyder without a color saturation filter
Owen Watson
>Pajiba.com Why does this no name site keep getting "scoops" on all the flavor of the moment stories? I first heard of them when Making a Murderer was having it's moment.

Mason Thomas
DCucks will lap up anything they shit out so why should they care
Jonathan Myers
Fuck, I didn't realize WB was responsible for all those shit movies.
This is practically Sony tier.
Adrian Gray
GET DAVID AYER TO DIRECT DC FILMS!
He was superb in Fury and he was great with what he did with the actors in Suicide Squad (if you read his original cut of the film) and then get new editors who truly care about making a good film.
Keep Snyder on as a cinematographer, visual arts guy but make Ayer direct.

loooooooooooooool.

It's clear they're never gonna make a good movie, and it'll just get more sad the longer it goes on.
Evan Miller
Are you implying Johns is a director?
Christian Allen
I was puzzled by the "another jungle book movie is a good idead, but then i looked it up". Jesus christ. It doesnt even matter if it's good or not. Somebody greenlit it.
Isaac Jackson
>It's clear they're never gonna make a good movie FUCK YOU
Suicide Squad is an 8/10 enjoyable action drama that got almost everything right with character development.
You fucking people cannot appreciate anything
Austin Edwards
They also made the hobbit trilogy.
Connor Lee
The Wonder Woman trailer made me think the movie was going to be shit. The Justice League trailer was ok except for the Flash's terrible jokes.
Charles Wilson
I don't watch Will Smith movies after that diversity shit he and his wife tried to pull while being one of the richest black actors.
Ryder Fisher
>Suicide Squad is an 8/10 enjoyable action drama that got almost everything right with character development. Except it was ruined by god awful editing and if there were any characters in it, they don't matter. The whole movie is about Harley & Deadshot. Croc has like 3 lines. Boomerang and Katana do nothing.
The movie was a joke.
William Campbell
Why list Mad Max when it was excellent?
Isaiah Cook
JL trailer was pretty garbage imo
Cameron Johnson
Probally WB just is planning on losing mad money making oceans 8.
Fun fact:WB owns the mortal kombat rights and has jared leto margot robbie and david ayer under multiple film contracts
Instead of oceans 8 WB should make a mortal kombat film starring margot robbie as sonya blade wearing booty shorts with jared leto as johnny cage.
Jayden Richardson
Snyder's movies will be great as usual but you can't fault him for corporate decisions as they have the final say.
Angel Brown
WB has artistic integrity, unlike the capeshit factory at Marvel
Joshua Ross
it didn't do gangbusters $$
Joshua Hall
It didn't do that well at the box office, just like Edge of Tomorrow, which is listed too. Although Edge of Tomorrow suffered from very bad marketing.
Henry Morgan
>her stopped reading, don't care
Chase Diaz
The budgets of movies are too high these days
They need to write scripts that focus on smaller budgets and better storylines
someone needs to edit that thing down... I bet there's a decent movie in there.
Ignoring all the bad cgi stuff.
Austin Reed
I think she means this Max.
Adam Thompson
Then how come they did all those re-shoots to change their artistic vision of Suicide Squad to be more like Marvel movies?
Logan Davis
IIRC someone already did a Tolkien Cut. All three movies in one.
Jayden Nelson
not to mention like 5 name changes right before opening and after going digital and shit movie wasnt even that bad of an adaption, standard hollywood changed shit but it was atleast enjoyable
Goddamn, that letter is a thing of beauty. I hope Kevin gets fired after Snyder finishes crashing the DCEU with no survivors.
Parker Gutierrez

Anthony Clark
Wow. That was a glorious rant and a much needed one too. Too bad they won't listen. I always preferred Bugs to Mickey. Shame.

half of it is just half truths on principle but if you want to believe her obvious butthurt because it goes with the WB sucks and i want them to fail narrative then do

DChads win again
Gabriel Cox
Watchmen was pretty faithful as an adaptation, he's good on that end. but he doesn't understand the source material at all, BvS proved it. he just slapped together a bunch of iconic comic book shit he saw and called it a day.
Cameron Ortiz
>Disney employee falseflagging

You need to shitpost faster, WB shills. If you don't you might get laid off when Wonder Woman bombs.

Jacob Sanders
Does anybody else finds weird how hard these faggots are hitting WB, lately?
They are retards but so are most big industry studios.
It just feels so dishonest and agenda driven.
Jose Powell
>it's just half truths and WB sucks propaganda! You're either a retard or a shill. Her rant is completely right, WB have been steadily releasing bombs for the last two years and instead of kicking out the retarded higher ups who greenlit these bombs they've been laying off employees who are in no way responsible for WB's fuck ups.
Justin Butler
DCucks already in denial.
Nicholas Hall

Landon Jones
Who let the Sup Forumseddit in?
Jack Cook
>company acts completely retarded >company gets roasted for acting completely retarded >"DINDU NUFFIN! IT'S ALL AGENDA DRIVEN BULLSHIT" I see you shills have gone into full damage control mode. Sony has been acting completely retarded for years and has been relentlessly roasted for it for years but I don't see you sticking up for them.
Jackson Nguyen
Why would Ayer want to stay on after the studio cucked him on suicide squad? He could be off Making legitimate Kino.
Adam Gutierrez
Its actually very smart move. They are firing directors and crews left and right just to make all this movies based on one guy. They are literally saving millions while making as much. The Jap knows what he is doing.
Ethan Howard
>while making as much. This is where you're wrong. Warner Bros. excepted Batman v Superman to make 1.5 billion dollars at the box office and it didn't even make 1 billion.
Dylan Young
>Yeah man movie studios hate making money. It's not that that the corporation is trying to commit suicide, but that a jewish minority influence may be slowly killing it from within. You could call this a conspiracy theory, but I wouldn't even call any of this deliberate. Jews generally feel very isolated, and have an instinctual attraction to anti-establishment narratives, and they are very intelligent hardworking people who can find shitty movements like communism and help the incompetent gentiles get their shit together, such that these anti-establishment organizations get off the ground and undermining society. These jews, not consciously being pro-jewish, or anti-gentile have no problem letting other gentiles take the spotlight. I wear no tinfoil hat, because even though I recognize that the resources exist for the government to spy on all my internet history, with a simple straight talk to my ISP, I don't believe they're even doing that.
This whole thing is gutsy and powerful incompetence, but it's incompetence from very smart people who don't realize the damage their doing.
Daniel Rogers
It is frustrating to watch movies with gaping plotholes and garbage writing. Can't even imagine how maddening it is to work on these.
Gavin Young
Fucking /po-
Wait. That makes too much sense.
Lucas Johnson
>Being declarative >Not being rhetorical When will these people learn?
Julian Howard
4 or 5 out of 10 at best.
William Martinez
I don't get it, jungle book isn't even WB.
Andrew Gomez
>Wait. That makes too much sense. If you want to dine on the red pill of the refined narrative that is more intelligent then Sup Forums's fearful anti-jewish super-conspiracy narratives, then I suggest Kevin MacDonald's "Culture of Critique"
If you would like to hear more about the origins of Judaism a religion that has mostly died out among enlightened intelligent western society but still loosely influences the thought of the jewish race, much that Christianity likely still influences you even if you've shedded the Cross and Bible of your parents which is not unlikely in my estimation, then I suggest the writings of Jonathan Haidt, and jew who examined the Talmud and the Caballa, highly important jewish documents that written AFTER the New Testament contrary to popular belief.
However the red pill isn't super happy. I understand anti-Sup Forums sentiment and as a half-white half-mestizo scumoid, that the enterprising neo-nazi's would like to exterminate for undermining white society with an influx of shit-tier Democrat voters, I don't know how much I want to spread what I see as simple truths.
Oh well! Try to stay positive. :)
The blue pill is still a valid option, and I don't fault people for taking it!
Adrian Sanchez
>got almost everything right with character development. >joker in that movie >MUH FAMILIA out of nowhere yeah, nah
John Myers
WB also has a Jungle book movie in the works with Andy Serkis in it, probably more closely based on the book than Disney's which takes its cues from their animated movie
Elijah Peterson
>written by alleged former Warner Bros. employee >her >pajiba >staffer gives only the name--
Levi Nguyen
oh fuck, that's just stupid
Jason Wright
Good thing they got rid of this cuck.
Jonathan Myers
Even if WB didn't have a Jungle Book movie coming, the fact that Disney made another one can be seen as a belt-weather, in the industry.
Christian Sanders
>It's time to wake up and make the fucking donuts, Kevin.
The fact that the industry, as a whole, has gotten to the point where they're remaking fucking Jungle Book, even devoid of which company is doing it, is a bad sign.
>What things do we own or can easily get... that we can remake as a bigbudget action movie on part with anything Marvel is doing?! PETER PAN MOVIE INCOMING!!!!
JUNGLE BOOK!
Where's the War of the Worlds reboot as a cinematic universe?
Dominic Robinson
I read shit like this with all its weasel words and utter lack of citation and people wonder why I think Disney is making a concerted effort to tank their competition, poisoning the well before they even get out of the gate properly.
It's not that I necessarily believe that DC's making masterpieces; it's just that I know the MCU isn't either, yet there's this conspicuous vacuum of information concerning any hint of drama from behind the facade of the "Magic Kingdom."
They reduced Johansson's character to a walking Hulk tranquilizer and a helpless damsel when she could have been the first female lead in a big-budget cape movie. Am I to believe that she's cool with that?
Josiah Ward
>War of the Worlds reboot I'd watch it if it was set in the time period it's supposed to.
Call me a pleb, but I wanna see Thurderchild scene in 3D.
The ending in the book is not very movie-suitable, though, but eh.
Alexander Anderson
Cereal King will save us
Luis Collins
>it's just that I know the MCU isn't either, yet there's this conspicuous vacuum of information concerning any hint of drama from behind the facade of the "Magic Kingdom."
What about Idris Elba talking about how he wasn't having the best time on the set of Thor, or Renner faking heart attacks on the set of the first Avengers? Or the whole Ant-Man Edgar Wright fiasco, or Edward Norton getting kicked to the curb for Ruffalo, and let's not forget Terrence 1+1 = 3 Howard getting dropped as Jim Rhodes because he wanted to be paid the same as RDJ?
Kayden Gomez
Of course, I would also watch a period-set War of the Worlds.
But you know if they make it, it'll be a fucking joke. The whole movie will be the last 10 minutes of 10 Cloverleaf Lane, only the cars are carriages and everything is steampunk.
Juan King
I wouldn't go that far. They're IPs that people enjoy and love and I can get making new ones for new generations. I mean the cartoon version is fine, but it's also old as fuck and looks it.
Isaiah Brooks
sssh sssh user, no one wants to hear logical truth if it doesn't relate to how disney buys reviews and is controlling all the positive feedback they get. I'm sure scarlett is trying really really hard to get her anger out but all that money they throw at her keeps getting in the way.
Ryan Sanchez
That's ridiculous, no one is wondering what you're thinking.
Grayson Bennett
Yeah, I don't see them just making something good either. Could be a fun movie, though.
