How are like half of these even going to work. UNO movie? Magic 8 Ball movie? Viewmaster movie? How are you going to differentiate Hotwheels and Matchbox? Are they going to make a the Barnie movie for GROWNUPS? Wtf is Major Matt Mason? Why do Mattel own Wishbone? Who's goddamn idea was this.

(Kinda excited for a Masters of the Universe movie though not going to lie)

      The story of Sean Connery doing league of extraordinary gentleman is hilarious (if true). What I read a long time ago was that Connery was offered the role of Morpheus in the Matrix, read the script and went "what is this nerd shit" and turned it down. It became a huge hit and he missed out on a ton of royalty money. Similarly he was offered the role of Gandalf in the lord of the rings movies and turned it down for being nerd shit and missed out on like a gazillion dollars when it became a massive box office success and critically acclaimed. He was approached for league of extraordinary gentlemen and was like "fool me twice won't get fooled again", took the role and the movie was a flop, after which he just said fuck it and retired from acting.
