Pitch Meeting (2017)
What if some of the worst movie-making decisions were made with the best intentions? Step inside the pitch meetings for some famous movies!
Seasons & Episode
Rebel Moon: Part One - A Child of Fire definitely raises some questions. Like is this movie a long montage? Why is everything slow-mo? When you join the squad, are you required to just stand silently in the background?
Step back into the pitch meeting and revisit the completely factual accurate conversation that led to Wonder Woman! Complete with commentary from Ryan George who is now several years older! Ever wonder how the pitch meeting that started it all went down? Check out this video to find out how Gal Gadot's accent lead to an island of Borat-ladies, or why Chris Pine's Steve Trevor was so non-challant about meeting gods. You might even learn how Diana Prince fighting Ares became one of the most ridiculous third acts we've seen in a while! Trust us, it's super easy, barely an inconvenience.
Blumhouse has made a name for themselves in the horror genre with massive box office hits on relatively low budgets. But as their output increases, sometimes we get some movies that just aren’t hit material. Take a movie that’s about a haunted pool, for example.

Before the writers of Madame Web and Morbius graced the world with those cinematic experiences, they delivered Gods of Egypt, a movie that exists and was made and exists. Gods of Egypt definitely raises some questions. Like why is the God of Egypt Scottish? Why didn’t the other gods help Horus when they were all together, instead of being picked off individually later? What was the point of the entire second act? To answer all these questions, check out the pitch meeting that led to Gods of Egypt!
Now that the original Ghostbusters are back on the big screen (after forty years and a failed reboot attempt) it’s time to revisit the classic movie that started it all. The original Ghostbusters definitely raises some questions. Like why didn’t the guys take their ghostly evidence somewhere else instead of starting a ghostbusting business? Why did they get a secretary before having any clients? Whatever happened to that library ghost? To answer all these questions, check out the pitch meeting that led to Ghostbusters!
Step back into the pitch meeting and revisit the completely factual accurate conversation that led to Fan4stic! Complete with commentary from Ryan George who is now several years older!
It’s been sequelized and animated and rebooted and sequelized again, and now Ghostbusters is BACK with another sequel before the animated reboot comes out! Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire definitely raises some questions. Like why are there so many characters? Why don’t they use their flying equipment against flying ghosts? Why is Winston keeping secrets? What exactly what Garraka’s plan? To answer all these questions, check out the pitch meeting that led to Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire!
Step back into the pitch meeting and revisit the completely factual accurate conversation that led to Thor: Ragnarok! Complete with commentary from Ryan George who is now several years older!
After more than a decade of studios trying to build cinematic universe after cinematic universe, one that has actually surprisingly stuck around is the Monsterverse, featuring increasingly insane movies where large things punch other large things. Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire definitely raises some questions. Like why does this Trapper guy have the perfect equipment always lying right next to him? Why is there a podcaster and a child on this trip? How detailed were those hierogylphics?
Ghostbusters was a massive success in 1984, but it took more than half a decade for the world to get a second one! Why? I don’t know. That information is probably available on Google. Reasons, presumably. Ghostbusters 2 definitely raises some questions. Like did they just redo every beat of the first movie but slightly different? Is Venkman even a Ghostbuster or are we just following his love life? And most importantly, how did everyone forget that ghosts exist?!
