Three Pints of Pop- Film Frenzy: From Marvel Missteps to Barbie Breakthroughs

Why are predicting successes and flops of big movies and TV shows becoming increasingly difficult? Why are the right marketing tactics are crucial to a movie's success, and how did the Haunted Mansion movie turn the tables despite its unexpected release date? Welcome to a riveting discussion where we consider the ever-evolving landscape of pop culture alongside the busy yet brilliant Dan Mumford. We also shed light on the interesting potential of a darker, adult-targeted Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie.

In a world where technology is at its peak, one might wonder why the use of 35 millimeter and 70 millimeter film as a backup is still so pertinent. Join us as we take a deep dive into the technical aspects of film production, examining the longest film reel in history and the risks associated with excess length. Transitioning from the traditional to the contemporary, we ponder on the impact of toy-based movies on the entertainment industry. We discuss the success of Barbie and Transformers, the possibility of a Greta Gerwig-directed GI Joe movie, and what the future could hold for other toy IP based movies. 

From the unexpected social commentary in the movie 'Barbie' to the powerful message of self-love it delivers, we break down the elements that make this film far more than a simple girls' movie. We also touch upon upcoming releases like 'The Beanie Bubble', 'Blackberry', and 'Tetris', analyzing the potential of these films and their impact on the audience. Marvel and DC's approaches to the superhero movie genre are also dissected, along with the potential success of forthcoming Marvel films. Lastly, we celebrate the three-year anniversary of Touring Fan Live, reflect on the journey so far, and look ahead to upcoming projects and releases. Join us for a hearty dose of pop culture updates, insightful reviews, and more!
