We Get OUR Movie, and Possibly a Cinematic Universe

Reports are that the possible Valiant Cinematic Universe are wrecked, and if that's the case, then bummer.

But at least we're getting a Bloodshot movie.

It stars Vin Diesel as our titular anti-hero, and while I don't have a hate-on for Vin, it seems like plenty of fans, and the general chatter in the dark recesses online, are firmly anti-Vin.

He may not have been the first person I would have chose, but he's certainly not a bad choice. And look, THIS IS HOW MOVIES GET GREEN-LIT TO GET MADE. You need a star's name.

To paraphrase David Simon, co-creator of "The Wire," if given to opportunity to make a movie/television show based on your written content, YOU DO IT, even if the movie/show is garbage. It will always raise awareness of the source material.

And hey, the trailer doesn't look bad, which is a good sign.
