Oh wow. Just been looking at what's coming this year and it's a strong list. As well as the forthcoming Road House remake, we'll also be treated to a movie of 80's series The Fall Guy, what must now be the third reboot of Planet of the Apes, various sequels years after the original (Beetlejuice 2, Gladiator 2, Twisters) plus things like The First Omen, Bad Boys 4, Joker 2, Venom 4, Ghostbusters etc.Let's gooo

IIRC the new Planet of the Apes is a continuation of the recent reboot trilogy, which was much better than it had any business being. Buuuut the franchise is with Disney now so let's see what happens.

Saw Wonka with my kids last week. It is exceedingly whimsical in a way that surely isn't to everyone's taste, but imo they managed to thread the needle with a pretty delicate tone of magical realism, kept the character likeable (much credit to Chalamet), some good dance numbers. Biggest criticism was it's very sanitized and tidy, doesn't really stake any sort of unique and memorable identity. The songs were eminently forgettable. And the plot was pretty ridiculous but they make it pretty clear you shouldn't worry too much about that. All in all, as a kids' movie, I enjoyed it!

I'm gonna be real interested to see if another Exorcist actually happens after the most recent one got ripped to shreds and David Gordon Green immediately split. I can't Believe(r) they committed to an entire trilogy before waiting to see if the first one was a total POS. Just keep flushin' that money down the toity, Hollywood.
