BTG: History, Behind the Scenes Articles & Photos
She needs to have YOUNG black writers that she and here team can train on the ins and outs of writing soaps. The unfortunate thing is she does not have an expansive pool of black soap writers who understand the nuts and bolts of the genre to tap into (this is where daytime failed) - but hoping she can use this opportunity as a chance to create opportunities and train up and coming black talent.

Deadpool & Wolverine
Highest opening for an R rated film of all time too! I think the film has a good chance to join the $1bIllion club - the only other R rated movie in that club is Joker.

The Madonna Thread
She was getting ready to attend the Deadpool & Wolverine premiere in NYC. Like A Prayer is used in the trailer, but also in an important sequence in the movie itself (which she gave music notes on). Ryan Reynolds has been telling a story during this entire press promotion of the movie about how he had to go to Madonna’s house and ask for permission to use the song, and how it was like asking royalty for something. Madonna doesn’t usually license her music to outside parties, so it was a rare thing that she said yes (particularly a song like Like A Prayer).

Disney+ X-Men'97
Marvel Studios is notorious for completely micromanaging and overhauling their projects in both pre-production and post-production. To varying degrees of success. Definitely not out of the ordinary for them, but definitely a wait and see as there isn’t too much out there to really judge the new show-runner on. In related news, Kevin Feige is making the rounds promoting Deadpool & Wolverine this week. He mentioned that they’re excited to finally tap into the more soap opera elements of the X-Men IP in live-action soon. He might not necessarily be a fan, but Feige does seem to have a shred of respect for soaps. Perhaps because his grandfather was Robert E. Short - who once oversaw soap operas for P&G as the Executive In Charge of Production.

Loving/The City Discussion Thread
The City’s production format should definitely be attempted again. It wasn’t the problem and the technical team did it well IMO. I would love it if The Gates uses a similar production format.
