Don't feel too bad Wango, I had the exact same reaction when my wife told me she had not seen any of the original trilogy Star Wars movies.
“Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you.”
Real WWII Period Aircraft featured in this film include a Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress bomber, North American P-51 Mustang fighters, Supermarine Spitfire fighter, Hawker Hurricane fighter, North American B-25 Mitchell bomber, and Messerschmitt Bf 109 (ME 109) fighter.
But they couldn't had repaint them correctly or special effects their paint?
Also stop making World War 2 movies if you don't know anything about World War 2.

What I often wonder with bad movies like "Wolf Hound" is do the film-makers realize they are making a terrible movie when they watch the dailies or are they intentionally making a bad movie just to get the laughs from the audience? Certain movies like "Attack of the Killer Tomatoes" were very obviously made to be campy and stupid but it's much harder to tell with other movies.
For example I highly doubt the Wachowskis were intentionally wanting to make a ridiculously campy sci-fi epic with "Jupiter Ascending" but that's exactly what the finished product was.

There is a very specific reason why it went straight to streaming. From the trailer it really looks like a well-polished FAN film.

Unlike Alien and Predator, the MI films are still making a ton of money so they will continue to be made.

WIKI: Mission Impossible Dead Reckoning Part 1 2023 and Mission Impossible Dead Reckoning Part 2 2024, 7th and 8th installment of the Mission Impossible film series, will be Ethan Hunt send off.
They say that now but these 2 films earn $1 billion or more which will be easy, last 3 film earned $694,713,380, $682,714,267 and $791,115,104, you know Cruise will be back for 8 more. He gets $75-100 million for each Mission Impossible movie: up front salary and back end profit.

We all need to understand the first basic concept here which is that Hollywood is a BUSINESS before anything else. So movies and tv shows that generate a big profit will continue to be made regardless of any creative considerations.

I saw that trailer for Black Adam and what struck me is just how formulaic the movie looks. I don’t think the Rock’s star power alone will be enough to save this from being a flop.

I’m sure Ahmed Best could REALLY use the work.
