The Internet Is Roasting Patty Jenkins For Saying Streaming Movies Look Fake

Film snobbery is a very real thing in the industry, but it comes in different levels. For example, Steven Spielberg said he’d never direct a feature for streaming, which is perfectly fine because he’s one of the all-time greats and can do whatever the hell he pleases, but that didn’t stop him from okaying a deal that’ll see his Amblin Partners company produce multiple movies for Netflix on an annual basis.
Similarly, Quentin Tarantino still shoots his movies on celluloid having forgone the age of digital, but one of Hollywood’s foremost supporters of the theatrical experience nonetheless partnered up with Netflix to re-edit The Hateful Eight into a four-episode miniseries because it was an interesting creative experiment that allowed his revisionist Western to be viewed from a new angle.
Then, there’s Patty Jenkins. The Wonder Woman and Star Wars: Rogue Squadron director blasted straight-to-streaming releases as looking fake, a blanket statement that comes across as an entitled and elitist point of view, especially when so many of her peers have helmed projects for various platforms, many of which have been great. As you can see below, the internet evidently doesn’t agree with her sentiments.

Patty Jenkins and Christopher Nolan have spent this entire pandemic whining incessantly about movie theaters, and yet, have either of them dropped even a dime towards pandemic aid?
— Stevie Mat (@stevie_mat) September 2, 2021
What about all the theater employees who got laid off from closures? Not even we matter, huh?
Its so hypocritical & nasty for Patty Jenkins and others directors like her to say something like that. You ain't dragging those "fake movies" sis. Your disrespecting your colleagues, other directors, who make them movies.pic.twitter.com/fZjTOv8Gtn

I don’t know how Patty Jenkins considers these “fake movies” when they both outsold WW84. pic.twitter.com/EqJVCpbeSV

WW84 was one of the biggest disappointments in the DC’s universe. Patty Jenkins should stay very silent about what qualifies a movie as legendary and great pic.twitter.com/I9N6OIokme

Patty Jenkins and all the directors who think their movies are “too good” for streaming are full of shit
— Hello, Peter. (@IWriteAllDay_) September 2, 2021
Thank you to all the directors and creatives who moved their projects to streaming during the pandemic. Patty Jenkins may think you're shit below her heel but your art has been appreciated by myself and many. We've also been able to safely view it.

Of course, Jenkins was more than happy to allow Wonder Woman 1984 to score a hybrid release when she was reportedly awarded a bonus of around $10 million to compensate for lost box office-related bonuses. Not only that, but something like David Fincher’s Mank, Aaron Sorkin’s The Trial of the Chicago 7 or Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom looks a damn sight more real than whatever happened to David Thewlis and Kristen Wiig in the third acts of the filmmaker’s DCEU duo.

Dune Director Says The Sequel Could Shoot Next Year

Denis Villenueve’s Dune finally held its world premiere yesterday at the Venice Film Festival, and it would be fair to say the early reactions have been enthusiastic. The latest adaptation of Frank Herbert’s seminal novel has been labeled as a masterpiece, a generational cinematic event and one of 2021’s best movies by far, but it also hasn’t been without criticism.
Dig a little deeper, and you’ll find several of those in attendance criticizing Dune for only telling half a story, and ending on an incomplete note. Of course, that’s to be expected when Villenueve has stated on countless occasions that he’s leaving the door open for a sequel, which will tackle the latter half of the source novel. It’s a risky strategy, and one that could backfire should the sci-fi epic fail to perform at the box office, leaving the movie as sequel bait with no payoff.
In a new interview, Villenueve admitted that should Warner Bros. pull the trigger and give Dune: Part 2 the green light shortly after the film’s simultaneous theatrical and HBO Max release on October 22nd, he’d realistically be ready to have the project in front of cameras in a matter of months.
“I would say that I would be fairly ready to go quite quickly now. Quickly in terms of a movie of that size. You still need to make sets and costumes, we are talking about months. But if there’s enthusiasm and the movie is green lit, sooner than later I will say that I will be ready to shoot 2022 for sure. I am ready to go and I would say that I would love to bring it to the screen as soon as possible.”
When you think about it, the filmmaker already has a lot of costumes, sets, digital models and such ready to go, and the principal cast have presumably all signed on for two movies. Looking at the sheer wealth of talent involved in Dune, though, scheduling might be the biggest obstacle towards getting the band back together in 2022.
