Writer-producer-director, Robert Meyer Burnett, weaves a tangled web of his own with his fellow Imagination Connoisseurs in episode #203 of ROBSERVATIONS (a show about something). Today Rob explores the following inside the Post-Geek Singularity ...
• Rob reminisces about Disney classics like THE BLACK HOLE and 20,000 LEAGUES UNDER THE SEA as well as content hidden on physical media from Disney Home Media.
• Rob reviews a recent story on Digital Spy about how the father or the current, friendly, neighborhood Spider-Man, Tom Holland, is lobbyign to bring Spidey back to the MCU.
• Rob then covers Borys Kit's recent article in the Hollywood Reporter about the rift between SONY and Marvel and how SONY doesn't feel the need to follow "Kevin's Playbook."
• The stream continues with a letter from an Imagination Connoisseur who questions the need to force diversity in casting our favorite characters on screen on on the page.
• Looking at the other side of the issue, another fan weighs in by comparing what we see on the screen to the way things are in the real world.
• What's wrong with Superman? He's "Superficial."
• An Imagination Connoisseur establishes his creds by catching the 4K version of APOCALYPSE NOW.
• Troy Williams (of CinemaSurvey), shares his conspiracy theory on Disney's motives behind the split with SONY. Are Marvel and the MCU now in an endgame of their own?
• Dieter Bastian, a fan from Germany says he sees plenty of opportunities ahead for both the Spider-Man and Marvel Cinematic Universes.
• Rob talks about iconic imagery from classic movies and ponders why contemporary movies don't (thanks to this letter from a fan).
• Is social media ruining our ability to evaluate the truth of a story? Rob and The Post-Geek Singularity consider it in some detail.
Plus SuperChats from viewers, more letters and the usual sillyness.
