We see him get pushed down a well, we don't know unambiguously that he died.
I liked what they did with chapter 1, so I'll wait until chapter 2 is out before deciding that it's terrible.

The adult side of the story has always been weaker, even in the book, because there's barely a story. I'm not declaring it terrible, but the more they change the better, and it's going to take that much more effort to pull off.
He was very badly injured from the fall but he managed to recover.

And the Three Sea Shells...
There's a rumor going around that John Mulaney might be joining the cast of Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse as Spider-Ham.
Also, the toy packages for Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse have revealed what Kingpin's looking like.
Make him bigger.
Unbreakable was a lot of fun, and I would be excited about a sequel except for the inclusion of McAvoy's character. I really hated that movie whatever it was called.

Quite likely too sad to watch.

I linked the trailer over in the trailers thread. I don’t know how sad it will be, but I definitely expect it will be tragic.

Shudder spent the past 24 hours streaming a horror movie marathon hosted by Joe Bob Briggs (like MonsterVision of yore), and I sadly missed almost all of it. I'm sure Shudder will be milking re-streaming it later since it'll be exclusive content which they badly want to have.
I'm kind of surprised they don't get Svengoolie off of MeTV. Or get the rights to do Night Owl Theater versions of movies Fritz the Night Owl's been doing here in Columbus.
I do!
Awesome!
FYI -- there are a few clips of him on YouTube, though I can't find the one clip I most remember him for -- doing his own version of the WTOG "As far as the eye can see" bumper.

I am so hype for this:
Tom Hooper (the guy who directed the movie adaptation of the musical Les Miserables) is apparently going to be adapting Cats to the big screen. It will be starring Taylor Swift, Jennifer Hudson, James Corden, and Sir Ian McKellen.
No.
Wholeheartedly agree with you. I don't know why this is happening now, much less why at all. Like, is it CG or motion capture? Would they try something as dumb as actually having them in the cat costumes? Just...why?
In better news, Lin-Manuel Miranda's looking at making his film directing debut with an adaptation of Tick, Tick...Boom!.
They've now confirmed John Mulaney as Spider-Ham for Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, along with announcing Kimiko Glenn as Peni Parker. If you don't know her, she's a Japanese high school student with a psychic link to a mech piloted by a radioactive spider.

I'm guessing it was Taylor Swift's idea.
When I saw this news, they showed a picture of her with her cat and now I'm totally in love. That cat is gorgeous.
Also starring RDJ as Rum Tum Tugger and Benedict Cumberbatch as Macavity.
...I mean, not really, but you were totally with me for a bit, there, weren’t you?

Honestly, I'm surprised they haven't tried to pull Hugh Jackman in for some capacity.
In any case, I'm just not real interested in this project. That said, apparently Spielberg was apparently developing an animated adaptation back in the '90s: https://io9.gizmodo.com/stunning-concept-art-for-spielbergs-animated-cats-movie-1599739506
