Reid, maybe you need some space...to pull the knife out of the back of the most celebrated Canadian alt-rock band of the mid-90s, you selfish, jaded ass.
And maybe BNL has two Billboard Awards to your zero, Reid.
A test that determines your tolerance for bouncy pop punk, Barenaked Ladies lyrics, and the intersection of these two polarizing sounds.
I’ll be the one to go ahead and say that those first five Barenaked Ladies are terrific and I still listen to them all the time. They got too cutesy after that - and I lost all interest once Steven Page left - but the 90s stuff holds up so well.
I think this is the quintessential don’t think too much about it movie
I mean, a movie about a giant ape punching a giant lizard seems like the epitome of a “don’t think about it too much” thing, when you get right down to it. Brains should be stowed neatly below your seats.
With each of these new movies the creators go through the effort to tell you the size of Godzilla but then don’t really seem to stick to it. For the last one they said he was 400' tall but then sometimes when you see him standing next to skyscrapers the scale doesn’t seem to fit. He seems much bigger.
Earlier in the trailer it appeared that they’d taken one of the Iowa-class battleships out of mothballs, presumably to face the kaiju threat, so I guess that’s not entirely out of the question.
WATCH TED LASSO!
Not to mention the 2016 one very much “drowned itself in the nostalgia of old Ghostbusters movies”, no “instead of”, far more than anything I’ve seen about this new one.
It’s weirdly comforting to know that, come what may, the AV Club will try to stir up the long-burned out embers of the Ghostbusters (2016) controversy whenever they have the opportunity.
But while Finn Wolfhard’s confused face and Paul Rudd, Nostalgic Ghostbuster Nerd weren’t necessarily enough to spark the public’s imagination for a “real” Ghostbusters movie, i.e. one that drowned itself in the nostalgia of old Ghostbusters movies, instead of just letting four immensely funny comedians bust the shit…
Quick test: Name one classic or even recognizable good line or joke from Ghostbusters (2016).
The AV Club will apparently continue to talk up the 2016 Ghostbusters movie long after it has been consigned to the $5 bin of mediocrity by the rest of the world. And it comes off really defensive here.
Yeah, the contract language was almost certainly something along the lines of ‘these characters may not appear in a non-Netflix produced live action film or television production for a period of no less than 24 months from the date of cancellation.’ Not ‘nobody is allowed to even think about using these characters in…
‘I won’t work for you if Hamada remains with the company.’
He’s not very bright, is he?
the film cleverly opens with a clumsy cacophony, the offscreen sound of his students badly playing the Disney theme over the company logo.
Of all the sad things I can think of, this is not one of them.
