Agatha All Along - Early Reviews, Just Watched! Baz Luhrmann Joan of Arc, James Cameron Hiroshima

[Happyday-pswy]

Will and grace had gay leads and people watched it and their been gay characters in anime for decades. They didn’t complain people didn’t like it, they just let their audience come.

Grace, stop worrying about whether people are going to hate on Agatha, and just worry about whether its intended audience is going to watch it. Those haters, as you'd describe them, don't control viewership. They don't have that power. They're playing to viewers who already agree with them. They could make a hundred videos mocking Agatha, or none at all, and it would nary make a difference to Agatha's performance.

We talk a lot about the MCU’s diminished audience and, in my opinion, a reason for this has been that some MCU movies and shows haven’t been able to age with their audience, being very silly and in same cases immature. I think a lot of the original MCU fans have migrated to more age appropriate content like House of the Dragon, The Boys, Invincible, The Last of Us, Fallout, etc.

The most successful MCU project after endgame seem to be precisely the less childish ones.

Grace, assuming the above is correct, if you don’t think it is I’d love to hear your thoughts, do you think it will impact Agatha?

Forget the feminist take, what really matters is not offending maybe the two billion people who honor Joan of arc as a saint?

I was gifted a membership, I am so happy, thank you!!!!

The idea of Joan of Arc singing "It's My Party" cracked me up. Still laughing. Think they'd go for "Heat Wave" when she is tied to the stake?

Just make good content. If the best thing you say about your show is it is "diverse", or "it's not for x or y group" then it stands a good chance to fail...not because of toxicity, it's because it only appeals to people who care only about said diversity. Most pple want good stories with well-written characters. Worked for Barbie, Will & Grace, and Pitch Perfect.

Jenna Ortega is close to overexposure.
And I'd say a European actress should play Joan d'Arc, but this is Baz Luhrmann so it'll be style over history anyway.

I'm very excited to see Agatha All Along! 💜🔮

[JSV-prqo]

Me as a Gay person having to hope that straight people can handle seeing relationships and people like me exist on a tv show. Its 2024 ... I'm exhausted

Grace: Non political movie announced.

The movie: Real life exploration of the biggest man made detonation during warfare in human history; the victims perspectives.

I was flabbergasted

Can I say, politics isn't just "when character black or woman"

[justphil]

Maybe Joan of Arc will be similar to the stylized Sofia Coppola’s Marie Antoinette. I’d like that.

[dylanmcmahon]

grace doesn't get why all these shows are failing

The UK has its own Day After Tomorrow called THREADS. A 1980s tv movie that is waaayyy scarier than it has any right to be!!

[brucewayne]

The fact that Jenna Ortega would want to do the of Joan Of Arc just shows that despite her being Latina, she knows she is white-passing and therefore does not experience the challenges of casting that non-white passing Latino/a actors experience that John Leguizamo was talking about.

It was a quick thought on your part, but thanks for mentioning that you don't have to have seen Wandavision or know much about the MCU. I want to watch this with the bf, who hasn't seen any recent MCU. Excited for this!

[Petrichoroma]

First I’ve heard of this James Cameron project. Sounds perfect! I think it could be very powerful in 3D. I don’t think anyone has ever truly captured the impact of nuclear weapons.

Cameron could both realize it and make everyone see it. I want this to exist not as “an exciting movie”, but because I genuinely feel it could shift human understanding toward our fragility and interdependent coexistence.

I really hope he makes this.

"chappell roan, everyones kind of upset with her right now" what? Is the upset in the room with us?

[sergioacosta]

That is the problem that I have with marvel, everything is on its own space. I want to see a story that has consequences beyond that and goes beyond. Like it was phase one of marvel.

What’s with the comparisons to Penguin? Agatha is nothing like the other. One is more grounded, the other is more Disney-fantasy.
