    I’m still mad they couldn’t just recast Ezra Miller after all his controversies.

    • @MarcSpctr
      @MarcSpctr 7 месяцев назад +25

      even after proven guilty they aren't cancelled and yet Johnny Depp and James Gunn would be people to get cancelled instead.
      I think Hollywood has learnt it's lesson cause even after allegations now Jonathan Majors is still playing Kang, and I do not think Disney would repeat it's mistake again, probably would cast him only after He is proven guilty, else they ain't taking risk again, they saw the outcome already with Depp and Gunn.

    • @deadpoolrockz6410
      @deadpoolrockz6410 7 месяцев назад +12

      For The Flash I kind of get, since the actor was playing 3 different versions of the same character (Present Barry, past Barry, and Black Flash Barry), most of which were on screen at the same time. They apparently had all the parts featuring all 3 Barry's complete by the time the controversy hits, so logically if they did recast, it be a major investment loss since it's not just a single character that is prominently featured in the film being recasted, but 3.

    The big issue with The Mummy is that they tried too hard to make it an introduction to the Dark Universe franchise instead of trying to make it a good movie on its own.
    It would have worked a lot better if they focused on the plot of the main monster and only introduced the whole Jekyl subplot near the very end to start building up that there's something else.
