It’s another episode of It Is What It Is, and B.C. is talking The MCU!

While the Disney/FOX merger is still up in the air, FOX is not laying down as they continue to plan and push for new films in the X-men  Universe, as well as possible Fantastic Four Spin-offs.

With Disney buying out many of 21^st Century Fox’s major assets, the House of Mouse will now have control of all of Fox film properties, such as Fantastic Four and X-Men. What does this mean for the future of film and television, and the MCU in particular?

Disney could own another major movie studio soon as 21st Century Fox has engaged in talks to sell a vast majority of their company.  More details below.

Out of SDCC comes news that Fox is currently working on a new take on the Fantastic Four universe with a movie focused entirely on Doctor Doom being developed by Legion and Fargo creator, Noah Hawley.

Filmmakers often plan ahead, and many of the movies which come out each year are designed to be part of a multi-film series. However, it doesn’t always work out that way.

However, in recent times, it seems that discussions about the merits of popular media projects are being sidetracked by debates about political correctness. Why are these issues becoming more important than the movies themselves?

 With everyone talking about the results of the Oscars and the best films of the year, let’s not forget that last weekend was also the time for celebrating the years worst cinematic stink-bombs. The 36st Annual Golden Raspberry Awards have anointed the best of the bombs for 2016.
