Pitch Meeting Season 6 Full Episode Guide
2009’s Avatar was the highest-grossing movie of all time. Naturally, that meant sequel-time, and FAST. Okay maybe not fast. Maybe not even slow-paced. Maybe THIRTEEN YEARS LATER James Cameron has brought us back to the world of Pandora, along with all the characters whose names we definitely remember. Avatar: The Way Of Water definitely raises some questions. Like why spend so much money bringing back Colonel Quarritch to life, the guy who famously failed the last time he attempted something similar to this mission? Why does Jake suddenly decide that it’s suddenly time to run away after literally heading into battle regularly? Where did all the ocean people go in the third act? How many decades until the next movie? To answer all these questions, check out the pitch meeting that led to Avatar: The Way Of Water.

Before the massive success of the MCU and the DCEU, the superhero and comic book genre was still trying to find its footing on the big screen. Before Henry Cavill donned the red cape, Brandon Routh played the Man of Steel on the big screen… ever so briefly. Superman Returns definitely raises some questions. Like why didn’t Superman tell Lois he was leaving? How did nobody realize that Clark and Superman left and returned on the very same day five years apart?

Amazon Studios decided to step up their game a few years ago by spending something like 250 million dollars on the rights to make a Lord of the Rings TV show. And then to make sure it was really good they spent another 750 million on production. So there you have it. One billion dollars! Instant classic, guaranteed! Right? That’s how it works, right? The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power definitely raises some questions. Like why is Galadriel so invincible and powerful? What were the odds of her stumbling upon Sauron in the middle of the ocean? Was she really just planning on swimming across an ocean to get home? Are volcanic eruptions not a huge deal? What was with that weird Rube Goldberg set-up at Mordor? To answer all these questions, check out the pitch meeting that led to the The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power!

After the tragic passing of Chadwick Boseman, Ryan Coogler and Marvel found themselves in the difficult position of continuing an iconic and culturally important series without its main star.

After over a decade of superhero domination, a certain movie absolutely crushed it at the box office in 2022, in what many described as a refreshing change of pace.

Like will Maverick ever get in trouble? Is this the plot of Star Wars? Do any of these jets have security? Why are they so easy to steal? Do shirtless beach games really lead to such camaraderie?

After decades, the Halloween saga is coming to an end. Again. In a different way, and like in a different timeline? Don’t worry about it too much– the point is, Michael Myers is BACK. Kind of. Actually he’s not really in this movie, but he’s definitely on the posters and in the trailers. So that’s pretty cool! Halloween Ends definitely raises some questions. Like why, in this movie marketed as the epic final showdown between Michael Myers and Laurie Strode, are we spending 90% of our time with a new dude named Corey?

If you hadn’t noticed, Disney has been on an absolute rampage of re-making their animated classics in “live-action” over the past few years.

After the success of The Mandalorian, Disney+, and Lucasfilm have been churning out new Star Wars content like crazy, with lots more on the way. So it makes sense that they wanted to make a show about a cool bounty hunter in Mandalorian armor, because, well, that seemed to work well the first time? Thus, everyone’s favorite bounty hunter from the original trilogy is back in The Book of Boba Fett. The Book of Boba Fett does raise some questions though.

Marvel has been going full throttle with their content output in Phase 4. With show after show after show hitting Disney Plus in the past year, some people are saying that superhero fatigue may finally be setting in. So putting out a new series about a character people aren’t super familiar with, starring a newcomer actress was always going to be a challenge, no matter how well-reviewed the show was. Ms. Marvel does raise some questions though. Like, does every single teenage boy have a crush on Kamala? Why is this Damage Control department so bad at their jobs?

Netflix has been absolutely churning out content over the past few years, and seem to have settled on a formula that works for them.

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is the sixth book in JK Rowling’s massively popular book series, and dives into the mystery of the Half-Blood Prince, Voldemort’s backstory, the assassination of Dumbledore and the teenage romance occuring between the characters at Hogwarts.

Like why not use the Felix Felicis liquid luck potion immediately? Or why not use the Truth Serum on Slughorn rather than create a super elaborate plan and hire him as a teacher?

Thor: Ragnarok in 2017 completely reinvented the God of Thunder, who, after Thor: The Dark World– many thought had become a pretty boring character. Since Ragnarok was such a hit, it seems like Taiki Waititi was given free reign to do whatever he wanted for the sequel 5 years later. Thor: Love and Thunder raises a lot of questions though. Like did Thor Odinson get dumber? How many times are these goats going to scream? Can we see Gorr the God Butcher butcher some gods sometime? Was that Guardians of the Galaxy tease in Endgame really just for the intro of this movie? If Gorr thought all gods only cared about themselves, why did he assume they would rescue children?

Stranger Things was an absolute phenomenon for Netflix when it hit their streaming service back in 2016. A whole lot has changed since then, but the show is just as popular as ever with their latest fourth season being ALL OVER SOCIAL MEDIA ALL THE TIME, and even sending a 37 year-old song back to the top of the charts.

After three Toy Story movies wrapped up a touching story started all the way back in 1995, Pixar and Disney decided it was best to leave the franchise alone after such a great accomplishment. Oh, except then they made a fourth one. And now they made a spin-off. But other than that - just a great trilogy left untarnished by corporate greed! Lightyear raises a lot of questions. Like what is this movie exactly? Was this really meant to represent an action movie that came out in the mid 90s? Why did Buzz land the entire colony onto a planet instead of sending a scout to see if it was habitable? Why did we never see a Sox the Cat toy in the Toy Story universe?

Video games tend to not do super well when adapted to the big screen, but gosh dangit, Hollywood’s determined to keep trying.

With the first John Wick being such a surprise hit at the box office in 2014, Hollywood had no choice but to immediately green-light some more. Fans of the Keanu Reeves movie were given John Wick: Chapter Two and then John Wick: Chapter Three - Parabellum, which had a neat little latin word on the end for its title for some reason.
