Fanboys Anonymous

Welcome to another edition of WEEK IN GEEK here at Fanboys Anonymous—a rundown of some of the events, news and stories that went down over the past few days in the geek culture spectrum.


Here are some of the topics I felt like voicing my opinions about:

Hollywood Sound Stages Possibly Converted into Hospitals

In order to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic, it seems different sound stages may be converted into makeshift hospital locations in order to treat people away from others.

This is scary, heartwarming, awesome, horrendous...everything. It's great to see so many businesses looking to find ways to help and it's shameful to see those who aren't. I'll spare you my conspiracy theory thoughts about this whole situation and just say that it's great to see situations where humans are acting like humans.

Anya Taylor-Joy for Young Furiosa

Supposedly, George Miller is working on a film revolving around Furiosa's younger days prior to Mad Max: Fury Road and Anya Taylor-Joy may play the titular character.

I'm all for a film revolving around this character if there's a good enough idea. I don't know about Joy playing the role, but I can oddly see it, too. It might give her a chance to break out and do something different that she totally kills.

- Aaaand that's it? A few people have talked about how they're excited to do movies and TV shows coming up, whenever that will be. More things are cancelled or postponed. It's a ghost town. Or maybe I'm just not looking hard enough. As always, if there are things you want me to address, drop a comment below and I'll give you my thoughts.
