Eternals Screenwriters’ Next Movie Is ‘The Matrix Meets The Virgin Suicides’ [Exclusive] Marvel Studios By Jeremy Mathai/Nov. 21, 2021 5:01 pm EST So much debate surrounding superhero movies tends to revolve around how directors are affected, both negatively and positively, from their experiences on these incredibly large blockbuster platforms. Ideally, up-and-coming talent can use these franchise films to raise their profile, gain a global spotlight, and go on to get their smaller, more personal passion projects greenlit and funded while studios get the positive publicity of giving opportunities to promising filmmakers with a voice and reams of talent....

Undeniably the most entertaining and energetic movie of that now-caput year, I found myself funstruck from film’s start to its fireworks-laden finish; ATCP is also 2009’s best animated film, somehow scurrying and climbing past other visionary, grand entries from the oh-nine like Wes Anderson’s fireside-classic Fantastic Mr....

This is the only time those two actors have worked together, so if for no other reason, Devil in a Blue Dress is worth a watch to see that duo share the screen....
