Woody Allen Considers Retirement 👓

Woody Allen, the legendary filmmaker, recently premiered his 50th movie, "Coup de Chance," at the Venice Film Festival. But here's the kicker – he hinted that this might be his swan song in the world of filmmaking. The reason? Well, it's not because he's run out of ideas or lost his creative spark. It's all about the hassle of raising funds for a movie at his age, 87, and the changing landscape of the film industry.

In a chat during the festival, Allen shared his deep-rooted love for French cinema and how he always wanted to be a French filmmaker. He talked about his admiration for iconic French directors like Truffaut and Godard and how they influenced his cinematic journey.

Of course, the conversation couldn't sidestep the controversy surrounding his daughter Dylan Farrow's allegations of sexual abuse. Allen firmly maintained his innocence, highlighting the extensive investigations that found no merit in the accusations.

When it comes to future projects, Allen's uncertain. He pondered the challenges of funding films and the fact that they end up on streaming platforms just weeks after a theatrical release. However, he still holds a flame for New York and might consider making another film there.

So, will we see Woody Allen back in the director's chair? Only time will tell, but his passion for cinema and cities remains undiminished.

What's coming? 🤔

Disney and Charter Impacting 15 Million Customers 😰

Disney and Charter, a cable company, are having a big argument, and it's affecting about 15 million cable customers. These customers can't watch 18 Disney channels, including ESPN (which shows sports) and eight ABC stations. This is happening right when football season is starting, so fans are upset.

Disney is telling these customers to switch to other services like Hulu + Live TV, which Disney owns, or other streaming services like YouTube TV, Sling, or Fubo.

This argument is a big deal because there's a lot of money involved—about $2.2 billion! Usually, companies don't tell their customers to go to other companies, so this is unusual.

This situation is causing problems for sports events and making Disney's stock price go down. It's also showing that more people are moving away from regular cable TV and trying out streaming services instead.

Fans Demand 'The Nice Guys' Sequel 🔫

Ryan Gosling and Russell Crowe's "The Nice Guys" may have been a bit of an underdog when it first hit theaters seven years ago, but it's suddenly getting a lot of love online. Fans are even calling for a sequel!

The film, directed by Shane Black, is a black comedy featuring Gosling as a private investigator and Crowe as an enforcer. Despite receiving positive reviews, it didn't perform exceptionally well at the box office, making $62.8 million on a $50 million budget.

However, over time, it's found a second life, probably thanks to streaming platforms and good old word of mouth. Recently, it trended on Twitter as fans expressed their admiration.

Some fans have watched it numerous times for the chemistry between Gosling and Crowe and the heartwarming father-daughter bond in the story. Others are sharing fan-made clips and hoping for a sequel set in the '80s.

Although a sequel might have seemed unlikely after its initial release, the film's growing popularity might just give it a fighting chance.

An Actual Barbenheimer Movie? 💣

Remember the Barbenheimer meme that had everyone laughing? Well, guess what? They're making a real movie out of it. But why?

Barbenheimer started as a mash-up joke combining Christopher Nolan's "Oppenheimer" and Greta Gerwig's "Barbie." It became a viral sensation, and folks even bought double-feature tickets for fun.

Now, brace yourself for "Barbenheimer: The Movie." But here's the twist – it's not a big studio production; it's made by Full Moon Features, a B-movie company known for a good time.

The movie's plot? In Dollsville, a group of fed-up female dolls led by Dr. Barbenheimer builds an atomic bomb to take down the patriarchy. Yes, you read that right. It's just B-movie fun.

Don't expect cinematic greatness, but if you enjoy B-movies and a good laugh, mark December 25, 2023, on your calendar. That's when "Barbenheimer: The Movie" hits the screens, just in time for Christmas.
