We, too, are all for the crossover., but we’d like to up the ante and say why stop with Dom and the dinos? Let’s crossover every studios’ biggest properties. You want to revitalize the DC Universe, Warner Bros.? Throw some Harry Potter at that shit. Superman might not be able to bleed, but we’re betting he’ll have a hard time stopping Voldemort from turning him into a chinchilla.
Paramount hasn’t had a truly major hit since 2014’s Transformers: Age of Extinction, but what would happen if you threw Ethan Hunt into the mix? Forget stealing from the CIA; there isn’t a more impossible mission than trying to infiltrate an army of sentient fighter jets. Even better, take Paramount’s highest-grossing movie of all time and watch in awe as the Titanic transforms into a massive fighting robot and nukes that iceberg to smithereens.
Of all the major studios, Sony might be in the direst need of a boost, so what’s stopping them from trading James Bond’s Walther PPK for a web shooter? Sure, Spider-Man might feel more like a Marvel property now, but Sony still holds the film rights meaning it’s totally within the realm of possibility for an older, gruffer Peter Parker to join MI6 and start banging Russian operatives.
And again, we’re all for it, but even if we weren’t, doesn’t this feel like the natural progression of Hollywood? First, we got movie franchises, then we got shared universes, and now we brace for impact as those universes collide into one another. Sooner or later, we’ll have every single property in existence mashed together in one giant ball of a movie, like one of those gross eating challenges on YouTube, and then the sun will explode, bringing us all towards salvation.
But until that time, we’re down to watch some dinosaurs drive some cars or whatever.
