ifif you wanna go really dark, check out *Attention, the kids are watching* from 1978 with Alain Delon. it’s basically the same plot as a psycho thriller
can’t wait for the memes
No matter how many people try to make a case that it is “clever”, in the end the last one was just an irredemable POS. The one thing you could never attribute to the 3 original movies was “badly made”, but this one was just borderline amateurish and ugly to look at. Please just let it die.
“Detroit Rock City” is at least 3 times as funny as the shitty “American Pie”.
Every few years a famous director comes out and says they always wanted to do a horror movie. Wes Anderson was the last one before Nolan, I think? They never follow up on it.
just let it die....or rest at least
“Dream Scenario” was just “Adaptation”light. Wasting Cage’s talent and a fantastic premise. It starts out really promising, but then they forgot to write a proper ending.
Like Musk, Aronofsky produces shiny,ugly products without any substance,so he is a good choice
His version of “This is Halloween” comes to mind, yuck
The “Funny Games” remake did indeed retain the stiltedness and the heavy handed, self righteous finger wagging, alright
Why though? She is a lousy actress with barely any screen presence. As if Emma Watson and Orlando Bloom had a child.
I like seeing Zodiac on top, otherwise this list is a mess. “Fight Club” might be talked to death, but it was undeniably a landmark movie that holds up. “Gone Girl” on the other hand is, unpopular opinion, glossy trash, as is “Dragon Tattoo”. “Benjamin Button” is far better than its reputation.
I am also more of a “Chatterer” fan
The Nun and M3gan are already half-forgotten, goddamnit.
There was a great “And then there were none” adaptation from 1974, starring Oliver Reed, Elke Sommer, Gert Froebe, Richard Attenborough and Herbert Lom. But I seem to be the only one who likes it, or am I?
Maybe because Abrams loves easy storytelling devices
ok, while I do agree a little that ID4 and Twister didn’t age all that well, I disagree with the notion that they had no soul or vision. You can see that there was some inspiration and visual spark. The remark about MI is simply idiotic. That movie was a fresh breath of air in the action movie of Die Hard clones…
it had the heart in the right place and the protagonists were all pretty likable, but as much as it hurts me to say that, it was quite lame. Listless action and storytelling, cringey jokes. I am not familiar with this superhero on page, but he struck me as a random combination of Iron Man, Venom, Green Lantern, …
Wouldnt be too surprised if the “rich men” are a dog whistle for Jewish people.
