Betty's going to be black in this. Her VA is and you know the rules. Don't ask how that makes sense when it's supposed to be a sequel to the original series.
WB was developing an all-black Flintstones cartoon at one point.
Pretty sure she was assaulted on set by James Franco and in order to keep her silent Seth gives her money to make whatever she wants no matter how terribly unfunny she is
Google says its budget was only $30-$35 million, I think it probably did make a profit. The marketing push wasn't even that big, I saw some ads for a week or two right before it came out and then word of mouth was enough to get it the rest of the way to a moderate return.
>Banks was born and raised in Pittsfield, Massachusetts, the eldest of four children of Ann (née Wallace) and Mark P. Mitchell.[7] Her father, a Vietnam War veteran, was a factory worker for General Electric and her mother worked in a bank.[8] She described her family as "very meat-and-potatoes, old-school Irish Catholic."
/misc/ would be so much better if the morons that used it could fact check the trash they say
>Banks went through parts of conversion to Judaism, her husband's faith, and studied with rabbis. In 2013, speaking of her religion, she stated that she practices Judaism, though "I did not have my mikveh, so, technically, I'm not converted," but that she has "been essentially a israelite for like 15 years," adding "Frankly, because I'm already doing everything [practicing religious rituals], I feel like I'm as israeli as I'm ever going to be."[58][59]
Fricking moron
>Wilma gets made at Fred for Cavesplaining about Rock & Roll >Michael Jackstone makes a goofy guest appearence >The Rolling Stones jokes >Barney gets stoned
blegh
Pitch Perfect 2 is all she directed before Charlie's Angels. What kind of fricking entitlement does she have that she thinks anyone would give her Mission Impossible to direct?
How do I square the fact that Banks is clearly an incredibly obnoxious dumb b***h IRL with the fact that I've been in love with her since that shitty Seth Rogen movie she did? I fricking love her stupid c**t face.

Who is this for?
Why use the corpse of Flintstones to do a show that clearly has nothing to do with anything?
There’s just a handful of people in the target demos that know what Flintstones is (probably from the Goodman movies). Nobody is excited to see them again. They’re even less excited to see you completely change that show into some modern bean mouth travesty.
I wanna frick Betty
When you think about it, Betty Rubble is the Princess Daisy of The Flintstones.
Betty's going to be black in this. Her VA is and you know the rules. Don't ask how that makes sense when it's supposed to be a sequel to the original series.

Maybe they time traveled to modern africa
how in the frick is this moronic b***h still making movies?!?! whos giving her money???
Pretty sure she was assaulted on set by James Franco and in order to keep her silent Seth gives her money to make whatever she wants no matter how terribly unfunny she is
Cocaine Bear was apparently enough of a success to convince some idiot exec to give her another chance, even if it only made $89 million
That's more than the Pope's Exorcist
Cocaine Bear was marketed out the ass compared to Pope's Exorcist. I doubt it made any money after marketing.
Google says its budget was only $30-$35 million, I think it probably did make a profit. The marketing push wasn't even that big, I saw some ads for a week or two right before it came out and then word of mouth was enough to get it the rest of the way to a moderate return.
They're not getting Disney dist. %. So thats 70million just to break even. There's no way they only spent 10-15 mil on advertising budget.
>ads
There was constant social media viral marketing for that garbage about WOHOHO WACKY COCAINE DRUG BEAR RANDOM TIME XD
It only cost $35m, so that's probably fifty percent net profit on box office alone
She’s a israelite.

Fricking moron
Probably sucks a mean dick
she must be a great frick.
post the Charlie's Angels webm
What?
>There was a story around Charlie's Angels that I was creating a feminist manifesto. I was just making an action movie
looks like a tampon ad
Sony, presumably.
She killed 30 rock and Scrubswhen she joined the cast. Me and my brother used to call her the show killer
You can't tell me Women are discriminated when Kathleen Kenney and this b***h can make so many failures and they still keep giving them millions.
The bar is very low for women in Hollywood.
Flintstone now there's a surname you don't hear anymore
Why is she allowed to be alive still?
how the frick do they let her keep directing films?
Call her Mrs. Flintstone cause she can make movie producers' bed rock.
Is that Joe Pera
I want to hold out hope it won't be complete shit. The comic series was super fun.
Was it fun...on a BUN?!
No, not that level of fun, but it was still a fricking wild ride.
i liked those comics, a series based on those would be great, but Banks directing will be horrible for that.
she should go the historically accurate route and make them all rapist pedophile blacks
Seth mcfarlane tried to do this with his flintstones reboot that nevr aired
Sounds like shit
>the flinstones but with sex jokes and drumpf references
>Wilma gets made at Fred for Cavesplaining about Rock & Roll
>Michael Jackstone makes a goofy guest appearence
>The Rolling Stones jokes
>Barney gets stoned
blegh
How is she still allowed to make movies after so many bombs? oh yeah, white CIS male privilege.
Imagine how insufferable she would have been if that movie was even remotely successful.
Is it possible for her to be any more insufferable?
>Men don't go to see women's actions movies
Didn't the 2000 movie make a decent profit off of a fairly large budget?
>It's a stereotype that men don't go see women do action movies
No, it's a fricking fact.
Oh it shows alright.
what if orange man bad before christ
already did that shit in the 90s, NEXT
YER DEAD TA ME, CAN OPENER!
I'm okay with it if they change the title to The Flintsteins so people can understand what why they did it
FLEENSTONES?!
I found out that Joel was Swedish; NOT Hispanic/Mexican; like a decade ago, and I am STILL baffled/surprised.
she must have some pretty powerful friends
FLINTSTONES
MEET THE FLINTSTONES
THE POST-MODERN STONEAGE FAMILY
FROM THE
TOWN OF BEDROCK
BAM BAM JUST BECAME A GAY troony
Big funny right here
Lel
At one time, actresses who got by on their looks would hit the wall and just kill themselves with drugs or plastic surgery. I miss those days.
Pitch Perfect 2 is all she directed before Charlie's Angels. What kind of fricking entitlement does she have that she thinks anyone would give her Mission Impossible to direct?
How does she keep failing up?
How do I square the fact that Banks is clearly an incredibly obnoxious dumb b***h IRL with the fact that I've been in love with her since that shitty Seth Rogen movie she did? I fricking love her stupid c**t face.
I want to creampie her feminist vegana so hard bros....
yes
Remember that time she openly said she loves big black wieners on a talk show? Never found her attractive since tbh
sauce or bullshit
Sure you're not thinking of Chelsea Handler?
Everytime.
Look at the LOVE in her eyes!
>Show about two blue collar white guy dads
>I know lets get a woman showrunner and fill the writing room with women.
Warner once again proving they are the dumbest in the business.
is nothing sacred anymore
used to be hot
Yes.
Such a fricking shame.
But even if she hitted the wall is sucks that she has to make feminist trash at this stage on her career.
Which is to say it will suck rancid monkey Black sphincter?
>flintstones reboot
The boomers are dead.

Just make your own show?
Why can't Elizabeth Banks stop making shitty movies and just suck my wiener instead?
She should go back to being a hot chick in movies. She might be 50 but she's still hot as frick IMO
She's too good for that now, anon. She made Cocaine Bear.
That photo is 11 years old. She still looks okay but not that good.
I trust Banks, she's a good writer
