It's the talk of Hollywood and the social media circuit: the death of the movie theaters at the hands of Warner Bros. and parent company AT&T. But is it? What are the ramifications of the decision to release an entire year's worth of films in both theaters and on HBO Max?

We've seen a few of them: the dream cast, the "who would you cast if" lists. And we've seen the stories about actors and actresses being replaced -- sometimes for the better, sometimes not. And then there are those times when someone just does not fit the part at all. So let's discuss.

Alan Moore is famous for having walked away from comics, despite being a lifelong fan of the medium. Did he just lose his mind, or was there something more to his retirement from comics? Now, in a new interview with Deadline, Moore talks about his new project, The Show, and how he feels superhero movies have blighted comic books -- which shouldn't be aimed at adults. Is he right? https://deadline.com/2020/10/alan-moore-rare-interview-watchmen-creator-the-show-superhero-movies-blighted-culture-1234594526/ Newsletter: http://eepurl.com/gboU11 Subscribe and share! http://www.facebook.com/scifi4me http://www.instagram.com/scifi4me http://www.twitter.com/scifi4me http://www.pinterest.com/scifi4me http://www.gab.com/scifi4me http://www.minds.com/scifi4me http://www.mewe.com/i/scifi4me #SciFi4Me #H2Opodcast #AlanMoore

This week, we turn our attention to remakes. And specifically, with the impending release of the new DUNE, we look at remakes that improve on the original. It doesn't happen every single time, but now and again the remakes get it right more than the first version. Or the second. Or the third...

Robin. Watson. Speedy. Spock. Jack Burton. There are a lot of great sidekicks in genre, and you can even go back far enough to find early examples in "The Last of the Mohicans". Sometimes they're the audience proxy, and sometimes they're the one that must be put into peril for the hero to be the hero.
