But, I guess if there was something I really wanted to see, I’d figure it out. |

So, MGM's asking price for Bond was $600 million???!!!! There's no way Apple or Netflix would pay that kind of money at this point in time. MGM/Broccoli's are morons. |

James Bond Film ‘No Time to Die’ Explored $600 Million Sale Apple, Netflix and other streaming services explored the possibility of acquiring “No Time to Die,” the upcoming James Bond movie that was originally slated to debut last April. The film’s release has been postponed multiple times, with the Daniel Craig vehicle moving back to November before being pushed into 2021 as the number of coronavirus cases kept growing. MGM, the studio behind the film, reportedly lost between $30 million to $50 million due to the delays, insiders said. Bloomberg first reported the discussions, which have been the topic du jour in Hollywood this week. Other studios, such as Paramount and Sony, have raked in tens of millions by selling movies like “Greyhound,” “Coming 2 America” and “Without Remorse” to streaming services while the exhibition sector continues to struggle during the pandemic. |

Asking $600 million is literally a joke.
Instead, it appears that this will sit on the shelf until 2022 at the earliest while MGM will need to spend another $50-$100 million worldwide in marketing costs, which is extremely risky considering that there's no guarantee that audiences will return to movie theaters, or if movie theaters will even be open at that time. The only word that fits this decision by the Broccoli's and MGM is dumb. |

Got bumped to Oct 2021 today. A bunch of other stuff got bumped to the fall as well.
I’ll bet Disney will bump Black Widow soon. Disney + perhaps? Last edited by Deberg_1990; 01-21-2021 at 10:23 PM.. |

I don’t think there’s any reason to put Black Widow on Disney+.
Disney isn’t willing to lose money on it what will likely be a $750 million dollar box office, especially considering the upcoming slate of Marvel properties that will run through August, with more Star Wars coming soon as well with The Bad Batch. |

Just watched it. So so great! Loved every second of it. The action was top notch, and all the women too! Loved all the little callbacks to previous movies in the series.
Had a great little running gag about ‘007’. Great send off for Craig. |
