I love that a bunch of execs saw the success of Barbie and concluded “so, people want more movies about toys, right?”

Starring Jack Black as a busy father.
He buys one at a creepy retro toy shop for his son.
His son scoffs at the gift and wants to just play on his phone.
Jack gets sucked into the images.
To save him, his son must flip through the images and cards to keep his dad away from danger.
They bond, and the View-Master was a totally cool gift after all.

I think this could be a legitimately interesting horror movie, very final destination-esque. But probably a bad idea

I wonder if they’ll steal from Insidious and have the Viewmaster be a way to see things normally unseen, like ghosts.

Ken movie, Mattel. *We want the fuckin’ Ryan Gosling KEN movie.*
Not whatever cliché-infested abortion whatever this clearly delusional Sony pitch turns out to be.

I have an embarrassing story about View-Masters. I had one when I was little, bit I didn’t like it much and hardly ever used it. It baffled me why they were so popular.
Fast-forward twenty years and I saw them mentioned in an article as “Stereoscopic 3-D View-Masters”, which made me puzzled. 3-D? I read more of the article and then a light-bulb went off in my head. I realized that I must have been looking through my View-Master as a kid with only one eye open.
