Uncut Gems looks interesting. In the very few dramatic roles he's done, Sandler has been quite good. I thought he was terrific in Punch Drunk Love and Reign Over Me. Particularly this scene, which just destroyed me the first time I saw it:

I remember that movie and that scene in particular really caught me off guard too. Was very impressed with Sandler in such a different role.

All of the digital de-aging they did for the actors looks pretty amazing from the clips.

This is a 4 part HBO limited series. Looks promising.

I can’t tell if the trailer looks good or if War Pigs is just warping my mind into thinking it’s awesome. Still don’t like the feel I get from the recruit. Looks like a gape-mouthed blockhead, rather than the smooth streets smarts of Edgerton.

That’s purely based of these trailers tho so we’ll see. I also wasn’t a fan of Kingsmen 2. The first one is a classic though.

Kingsman 2 was a definite step back from the first one but it's not unwatchable garbage.

I thought she was the highlight of suicide squad and made parts of it watchable.

I'm interesting in the BoP movie, and kind of wondering a bit at the addition of Harley Quinn to it. AFAIK, she's never actually been a BoP member, but they seem to be centering the movie around her? It's both kind of interesting, and a bit of a shame. I quite liked Robbie's Harley, and feel she could carry a movie of her own (Harley and the Gang?). But I was also interested in seeing what a Batgirl/Huntress/Black Canary movie would look like.

That trailer didn't do much for me, but like Cap said she was the bright spot of SS so this has a shot of being good.

Oh so it’s a HQ solo movie. Why not just call it that? Did they think it’d do better if they went for the whole girl power angle?

From what I read, the movie was originally going to be a Harley Quinn solo film, but Margot Robbie wanted a girl team up movie and fought to include those characters. The reason we aren't getting Batgirl for BOP or Poison Ivy/Catwoman is that they are saving those characters to introduce in the Matt Reeves Batman films.

That’s super lame.

If HQ is doing a team up, BoP was an idiotic choice. A team of superheroes she’s never been a part of. Why not just make Gotham City Sirens? Instead they’ll ruin this one so they can “save” the characters for later. Oh yeah, because god forbid DC have too many iterations of the same characters.

DC can’t do anything right.

Well, if they are saving Poison Ivy/Catwoman for a different/later project, that kind of puts the kibosh on a Gotham City Sirens movie (which would be awesome).

There are a ton of 'Harley solo' things they could have done. And if Robbie wanted a team up style movie, something with Harley and the Gang of Harleys would have been a good take at it, possibly injecting some humor into the DCEU.
