Fly Me To The Moon - Apple’s latest fiasco

Oh a movie about 1960s NASA… Groundbreaking.

ScarJo is an awful actress. Between her and Channing’s millennial line delivery and the Gen Z sarcastic script this looks like dogshit.

I’m predicting a total lunar eclipse.

I don't think either of them have chemistry with anyone that I can remember. They don't seem like those sort of romantic type actors.

The trailer alone is full of embarrassing anachronisms.

This. Looks. Awful.

Oh great, something else to feed the "fake" brigade. More nonsense. They just don't give up. They hate this country, no lie.

R5 is a MAGA Karen.

OMG. That looks so horrible. $100 million on this garbage?

R5 fell down and hit her head on the ground again.

I think he's had a lot of experience getting rockets off.

The second I saw Scarlet's horrible hair I knew this was a major turkey. Flop Me To The Moon starring Scarlet Flophansson and Channing Flopum.

That's Mrs Colin Jost to you.

Channing Tatum had terrible chemistry with Sandra Bullock in a movie released during the pandemic. I can’t remember the name, and can’t be bothered to look it up.

Scarlett's profile @ R11 is...unfortunate.

r13 I'll never understand her sex symbol status. She has a nice body but her mouth area is a mess. Weird big teeth and ugly chin.

R12 it was called The Lost City. I watched it just to see a lot of Channing's ass.

Channing is getting a little long in the tooth for this kind of mess

It was a joke when 'woke' Hollywood made that Neil Armstrong movie a few years back and cast that smug Canadian in the leading role and didn't even show him planting the American flag on the moon, which was the entire point of the mission.

I stopped voting Democratic in recent years, because liberals have become very anti-America the farther left they've gone.

And they're not subtle about it anymore, which is stupid because most Americans are patriotic and are noticing this trend.

Who wants leaders who hate America and are ashamed of being Americans?

R17? Most Americans are patriotic? Hahahaha! Most Americans don't even know what it means to be patriotic. They think voting for Trump and hanging a flag from their house (and letting it get tattered and worn) and saying "Thank you for your service" to me is patriotism.

I really hate what this country has become. I am a hop, skip, and a Trump from leaving.

Hope I don't have to.

JFC how many movies about NASA in the 60s have there been?

The Right Stuff?

I Dream of Jeannie?

No way is either one of them worth $20 Million. If the studio paid either of them that much then they sure got played.

I'm not that poster, but it does sound like the product of half-assed brainstorming

The fake moon landing director is gay. We can see from his clothes.

I did laugh at the scene where the actor auditions for Tatum's role.

I need to see Channing ass and frontal to make it worthwhile.

Not all nepo babies are in front of the camera. A bit of digging reveals that this script was written by 30 year old 'model' Rose Gilroy, who is also incidentally, the daughter of Rene Russo and screenwriter/director Dan Gilroy (Nightcrawler) and niece to writer/director Tony Gilroy (the Bourne Films, Michael Clayton) and film editor John Gilroy.

So, yeah. Mystery solved.

(Big fan of Renee though.)

Scarlett has lost her looks and age will not be kind to Tater

Tatum had chemistry with Sandra Bullock, in my opinion. Because they both have that snarky style.

This series looks bad. And not helpful - promoting the possibly faked moon landings theory.

R24 nothing gets past you! Or the stratosphere. He's hyperbolically gay.

R11 I love his smile

What are the chances they will use the Sinatra song?

I just can't stand either of these 2. I don't know why they just don't resonate with me at all in any performance.

Has Apple TV had any good original programming?

I don't subscribe, but the few times I've looked in at their original films and series they sound dreadful. Every capsule description worse than the one before, as though someone were trying, rather timdly, to make over the Hallmark channel. The casting likewise: actors unthought about for a long while, and with sound reason.

R34 some of their movies are ok.

R32 I heard they gonna use this version

It looks like it could be cute and trifling. However, I agree with the comments on Johansson’s “sex appeal” and acting talent. Both are vastly overrated. And how is she even considered a box office draw? That’s like saying Chris Evans is A-list for playing Captain America!

Their whole entertainment Division feels like a tax write-off. They don’t care if it loses money.

R37 Most of Scarlett's movies outside of marvel are box office bombs. That's why I don't understand why she is still hired? She doesn't even deserve it because in the beyond the blinds spotify podcast "our favorite Chris (Evans)" episode, it was said that she was allegedly a coke head well into 2018. That's why she already looks 48. Lazy drug-whores get rewarded with exclusive apple movies while talented actresses are ignored. Sad.

Even in her “heyday” when straight Jewish boys proclaimed her to be their high standard for beauty, she still looked like a cheap, plump, Lolita-wannabe to me!

Scarlett can suck the chrome off a1958 Buick in record time.

I like Scarlett. But I imagine Channing's pumpkin head makes him hard to photograph.

This movie was funded by the right. The left had nothing to do with it, but the righties (or Russian bots) like R17 will lie and pretend and disavow their own side.

I LOVED Bayonetta - it was an extremely fun game.

I was so pissed that the sequels went to the Switch as exclusives.

Scarlett has gotten thick on the bottom.

R45 It's the coke bloat. They must do it weekly at SNL.

R43 liberals have a natural tendency to distrust authority.

Stop blaming Russia for everything, including your autism.

R47 Hortense has joined the conversation.

It's so ridic that Channing is sticking around and doing these rom coms as he's aging and looking like a pumpkin head.

When he created his production company [33 and Out] with his "very good friend" Reid Carolin - the plan was in the title. Then they hit with their first major movie - Magic Mike - and even Carolin has moved on.

BTW- Channing is now 43. Tick tick, gurl.

R46 - I thought it made you skinny.

At least Scarlett has a sense of humor about herself.

She'd have to, at this point.

Is no place safe feom these ignorant simpleton conservatives who think being honest about our country’s history is somehow “unpatriotic.”

Demanding that our country and its politicians live up to our ideals and constitution even when we fall short of it IS patriotism. This means you, R 17, you stupid douchebag. Get in your time machine and go back to Nazi Germany or the antebellum south or whatever benighted time you find comforting, and leave te rest of us in the 21st Century.

The two stars do look a little old for this kind of thing, but I would totally watch this on TV. In the movies I’m not so sure.

Apple appears to be where Netflix and Amazon were a few years back - spending mountaint to create content to see what sticks.

They haven't hit the point where they've been forced to scale back as the others have.

I can see a strategy where they've been forced to build a high profile (read: projects with big names) library in order to reach some sort of market scale, but will eventually scale back. Also, they may be just trying a bunch of stuff to build data and models on viewing patterns, subscriptions, etc. so they can better gauge future projects. It's not like Netflix or Amazon are sharing their performance metrics and data with them.

A movie about a pretend faked moon landing is intended to further feed the Magat lie machine. There is no other purpose to this junk and Channing Tatum is an ugly old fag who should stick to what he knows: sucking dick!

Perhaps people are finding humor in the “faked moon landing” conspiracy because of people like r55

After all a greater number of people have come to the conclusion that the Space Race was a colossal waste that didn’t solve anything. Look at R55, still clearly fighting the Cold War, proving the Space Race was never won.

Fun fact, Stanley Kubrick’s film 2001: A Space Odyssey is actually a critique of the Space Race, which Kubrick viewed as a tool of illuminati social control.

I think the moon landing was fake because they just simply used high-tech Hollywood cameras to film it in a studio in order to say: Russia Russia Russia
