yesterday I heard from one of my sources that birds-of-prey was undergoing
massive reshoots as I shared on Twitter and today it's blown up into a
full-blown story that I can do a video on alright so anyway again as I said I
heard that birds of prey was undergoing massive reshoots thanks to what I think
most of us would agree our reasonable studio concerns I know if some of you
want your niche picture and I you know what I understand that I'm I'm I'm
sympathetic to it but I think at the same time even though birds of prey has
a small budget which is fantastic it minimizes the risk you still need these
movies to do well they can't make less money than ant-man
I mean DC is a brand that should be on par with Marvel it's not like some
little avant-garde niche franchise for Morna brothers to to fart around with
lack of a better word I mean this is a huge IP which is supposed to have all
these you know verticals that it spawns like you know merchandise and theme park
attractions you know it just it needs to perform as it should all right so anyway
some people yesterday tried to write off the reshoots this typical Hollywood
tinkering but today we find out that an entirely new director has been brought
on to the project and it's it's fabulous news yes while tweeting it again
tweeting with some of you yesterday I had said I hoped that this birds-of-prey
reshoot situation would be like the one with rogue one where Tony Gilroy
infamously came in while infamous forget Gareth Edwards but Tony Gilroy had to
come in and significantly rework the picture but we are the ones who
benefited because what Tony Gilroy came up with was pretty darn freakin cool I
really liked rogue one particularly the last you know the final act that was
like spectacular stuff in many ways my fit actually I'll just I'll just say it
it's my favorite new Disney Star Wars movie thanks to Tony Gilroy and sure
enough that seemed to be it seems to be exactly what
being here with birds of prey as The Hollywood Reporter is reporting that
John would direct your chats to house key who quite frankly should have been
directing this or suicide Suicide Squad - from the very beginning as I've been
saying since I saw John wick - well at least he's stepping into design and
co-direct new action scenes for the film design the action sequences is very
important because his stunt company has already been working on the movie from
the get-go but as anyone knows who's seen John wick - and particularly 3
which is a stunt is a stunt masterpiece that's just such an amazing film many
saying the best argument yet for an Oscar category for stunts that's how
good the movie is roaster house key has a special set of skills when it comes to
dreaming of action sequences while his company of course really helps execute
them for others Stachowski in fact is even known for keeping an ongoing
journal of ideas for cool stunt sequences that he can drop draw from for
his movies and if I were Warner Brothers I'd say can't please see your journal
okay I mean I know he's probably earmarked it not a lot a lot of that for
John wick for but still house key needs to level up and I think we can all get
behind that so if he's got to give a few sequences to birds of prey he's got to
give a few sequences to birds of prey now he'll be uncredited for his work in
the movie but it's not surprising the word got out immediately because his
involvement will surely be a major selling point for the film it sucks a
bit for Kathy Ann but it also sucks she delivered a movie that needs significant
reshoot so she should embrace this in an effort
to be a team with style sookie instead of flat-out replaces is of course what
happened to gareth edwards in at least to her benefit Stachowski is primarily
an action director so she can lay claim to any dramatic aspects of the film
where it was prop it was diff it was problematic with the Gilroy Edwards
situation because Tony Gilroy of course is a very prolific writer does a lot of
dramas so he could you know you could just think that he did everything but I
think Stachowski style is so clear and Yan's is I believe that we should be
able to tell their stuff apart I hope they can mesh it well I hope it
turns out well but I think Stachowski is a real team player
and he ain't gonna want to mess this up because this is a fabulous
and for him with a major studio Warner Brothers because I think it's been
shocking all of us have wondered why he hasn't been able to get any work
despite consistently delivering with the John wick movies you know the second and
third after david leitch left the franchise to strike out on his own so
it's the house he doesn't get any additional work but leach is able to
under deliver on movie after movie oh you know you know the drill
get your next project before your upcoming film is actually released and i
think david leitch does that very well right away as i said there's a slight
concern that birds of prey could cannibalize John wick a bit especially
because both have neon candy-colored gritty production design but against the
house key I think just needs to level up already and this is his big shot I think
we can all get behind that in fact DC fans are already saying what DC film
Mikey get is a reward for this last-minute white knighting and
considering his close relationship with mr. Keanu Reeves they've been close
since he was a stunt man on the matrix could DC also use this connection to
steal Keanu away from Marvel I'd be thinking this too I'd be like ah Chad
thanks so much for helping us out let's go to dinner hey do you know Chianti I
mean you think Janos around maybe he wants to come out
I want Keanu that's what I would that would be my mantra over Warner Brothers
and you know what just first you know Stachowski certainly has some great
friends but he's awesome all on his own and it's great to see good talented
people get the recognition that they deserve and what it also happens to be a
perfect fit with a big movie featuring important characters and it's still
struggling franchise well everybody wins oh this is fantastic
we'll see if birds of prey hopefully remove some of it's unfortunate
stereotypical allude story choices if you'd like to know what they are the
spoilery details are in another video that I recently made and there's a link
down below in the comments you know I'll pin it to the top of the comments you
can check that out if you desire it would be great it would be wonderful if
birds of prey became a John wick style action extravaganza with fun female
leads some great dramatic moments come on Cathy we're rooting for you and a
cool game villain who is a force to be reckoned with and taken
obviously as all the best villains are so all this news gives me a lot of hope
for birds of prey I knew help for birds of prey I loved
drug gone it was so good I was so happy to see this do a major turnarounds to
house key because exactly the kind of talent you want to bring onto a picture
like this should have been that from the beginning but we'll take it better late
than never so what do you think share your thoughts down below be sure to hit
