  1. Let’s say I’m not a fan of the first two movies (actually I heavily dislike them), but this trailer ain't so bad? Given the X-Men connections and the new director (who is not great either, but can do serviceable entertaining flicks), I might even see it on streaming someday. Color me surprised.
  2. After 2 years not going to cinemas, I went to see this with high expectations, even though trailers were meh, but I put in a lot of confidence in the director and reviews, so I saw went the extra mile to see it in theaters. What a let down. Preachy beyond belief and way too simplistic in how with deals with its themes. It just as bad as any blockbuster out there in that department. Def not what I was expecting from Greta. And not nearly as funny as I expected it to be, despite the trailers already being lackluster in that department. ”ken is me” epiphany is the epitome of that oversimplification, dumbing down of the themes of that permeates the whole movie. Just a big ass disappointment. I fully believe it got glowing reviews just because it’s slightly more original than big tent poles we are getting right now. No one can convince me otherwise, it must be the only reason. Side note: Oppenheimer, which I was also very interested in seeing, got one subtitled showing in one day only here. (I can’t bring myself to see the dubbed version). Hopefully It’s still showing at IMAX theaters in September, when I have trip planned to a big city with lots of IMAX screens. Expecting Papa Nolan to give me a proper cinematic experience. Is it normal for a movie like Oppy (specifically designed for IMAX), to still have showtimes months after the opening if there isn’t any appealing IMAX releases in the way? If that is a common practice, I should be able to see it in in the first week of September. Only film I saw in IMAX was The Walk 😢(only option I had, it was that or never experience the iMAX experience again/for quite sometime). Sucks to live thousands of miles from a big center.
  3. I’m very easy to please. I just need some cool shots and stepieces to give these blockbusters a pass. Is it now too much to ask for? Can’t remember the last one big-budgeted that impressed, and I mean big-budgeted movies in general. They just look visually appalling and mechanical nowadays.
  4. I just wanted to see something light & fun yesterday and went with this since it had good reviews. It’s a theme park movie, solely designed to boost the brand. No style whatsoever, which is the minimum I expect from these movies. They just go from one location to another location to another one without any rhyme, explaining weird ass names they throw up constantly, and quipping it to death. All of that while looking very cheap. Almost went to theaters to see this one. Dodged a bullet.
  5. Judging by the early reactions, I would say this will land somewhere between the 60s/70s on RT. As BO goes, I thinking something like 180-200m DOM and 200-300m OS. That if Keaton’s Batman presence has minimal impact on box office. Liked the trailer, this could be actually good kinda of reaction, them I saw the tweets here, and now I’m back to nah. Early words are very positive, but the few negatives hints (and the positives as well) what kind movie this is, one in which I’m not interested.
  6. Looks basic, animation aside (which is nice, not spectacular ( general design is what you except from any other studio and and the technique (lightning, textures, etc) feel like a slight downgrade)) the whole vibe reminded me of Robots and probably a million other things I can’t remember the name of off the of my head.
  7. Saw it again. A few isolated moments shine strong, but this probably Raimi's worst big movie. In his entire filmography I think it’s only better than Crimewave?
  8. not a big avatar fan, but that teaser was good. the music is bliss. and yes, visually it's a significant leap from the orignal, which has aged a bit.
  9. I think the reason stopped caring is the abscence of big budget, well made spectales that seeked to entertain and provoke in equal ammounts. Well made, entertaining and thought provoking are keywords here. Those have become so rare and far between now. Even when they are here, there are either failures or not nearly as good as could have been (see: Dune). Pixar used to get me excited, but I still haven't seen Luca and their last movie even though I loved Soul. Harry Potter is my #1 series and I can't muster any exctiment for the last FB. Matt Reeves is great, but wasn't really interested going to the theaters to see Batman. After Tenet, I don't even know or am interested on what Nolan is doing next. Every single director that did good big budget movies have been disappointing with their stuff. Sam Raimi is next I'm sure. Aging out of the hobby (following bo) might be part of the reason as well. I started in 2009 and I think I started losing interest with BvS's debacle. I come for movie news now, once every two weeks maybe? I used to post all day.
  10. Movies that think they're so smart because they know all the rules, likes to show off how much they know, which this does very explicitly, are the worst. Without Wes, the meta and subversive aspects turn into a eye-rolling fest. Even technically, whoever directed this is not half Wes Craven when it comes to crafting movies. Only the mother/son sequence got anything from me. I hated it. Scream 96 8/10 Scream 4 7/10 Scream 2 7/10 Scream 3 6/10 Scream 22 2/10
  11. Saw it. I was expecting awful, in line with the last dozen MCUs, and got mediocre, which makes it the best one since Doctor Strange, another mediocrely enjoyable superhero entry. Watts as a director puzzles me. Dude does a lot of embarrassing shit: take that one moment that is supposed to be a callback to TASM2. Mostly, he’s just in sleep mode, coming alive two or three moments in the whole thing. Giacchino surprised, tho. That’s for me the only thing that really works, and the only nostalgia bait that go me. His best music in a while.
