If the rumours that is less action oriented, way more worried about creating an epic that spans 2 decades etc is true i think it won’t get anywhere near Fury Road level of reception, especially because everyone loved FR and the comparisons will happen. Still i hope is more of a divisive but solid mid 70’s on MC than actual mixed reviews, otherwise it will flop.

Way longer than usual for Miller, but seems coherent since it spam 2 decades

I’m not arguing about all that, i disagreed and i won’t fight to have a vision. This part tho, of course it’s not a guideline, it’s very obvious an anti-war movie in it’s heart, it still portraits what have to be done to win them. Both things can be true, all war movies have contradictions, even shooting a war movie have contradictions because it turns them into spectacle. I really don’t know why you write about this movie like it’s a monolith that only means one thing because it’s “antiwar”, that’s not true for any antiwar movie. You can disagreed with what i see in the movie, i don’t care, but bring my post to a thread i’m not participating to mock it and say i’m objectively wrong about my perception of an art and that’s why you understand Sasha Stone or whatever is ridiculous.

I don’t think it needed to be said that not every people that are part of a minority have left politics lol. I know some people on the other side in the movie are from some minority, they’re still a very small portion compared to the amount of minorities that we see on the side of the protagonists. It’s semiotics, it’s implied that there’s a division in this pattern of how they show the characters, that doesn’t mean all people of color is on the same side, that’s stupid. I don’t think a have to answer why fascists hire people from minorities despite repressing the groups, it’s 2024, it’s obvious why. And yes, sorry to break your heart but comitting war crimes is a way to fight fascism. For some reason you cut my entire argument, but i can say it again. The movie is exactly about how in a war everyone have to get their hands dirty in order to win, including the right side, and that’s why war dehumanizes people, because there’s no option to survive it without do thing that’s awful. There’s a lot of wars outside of US that shows what the right side had to do to win, just search it up. And i’m really sorry if you understand Sasha Stone because of a post in a forum that you broke into pieces to be angry about lol. She’s psychotic.

I strongly prefer Scream 2 and 4, i think they’re both exceptional and kinda underrated. I find Scream 5 coward, but 6 is decent indeed, and very well made. I just think it lacks Wes soul.

Civil War was pretty great. I’m slightly confused about the discourse of the movie being unclear about it’s ideology, i though it was obvious they was dealing with a fascist in the moment the line “third mandate” dropped. It helps that nearly all the people we see in the pov of our characters are women, Asian, black, queer and other minorities. It paints the picture that usually starts all war, fascism and repression towards minorities that have to fight back, i didn’t really needed any backstory to get what triggered it, and the specified details of how seems really unnecessary to what the movie is doing. Really liked how it portraits a victory against fascism, showing how the left have to drop our ideas of being morally superior and get our hands dirty in order to win, it’s dehumanizing for sure, not pleasant at all to think about, but seems like a cold hard truth to me. And of course it’s a very interesting discussion about the very idea of registering something so difficult, very meta when you think about what the movie is portraying. But yeah, overall great movie, loved Dunst, Plemons and Moura performances especially. And of course, trying to stay on topic now, i’m very happy about it’s performance, 55% drop for this is pretty great. I think 70-75M finish is likely.

Abigail was fun, but i do think the trailer revealing the nature of it’s plot hurted the experience a lot since the first half is a big build up to a reveal we already expect from the first second. Still, very fun movie, not as good as Ready or Not but more interesting than what Radio Silence did with Scream.

Abigail seems to be getting very strong audience reception on RT, let´s see the CS Maybe it can help it tomorrow

They wouldn’t come out to support this movie even if she didn’t comment anything lol, look at how disappointing every non-blockbuster movie is performing these days Still stupid to fire her from Scream, people clearly loved her and Jenna on that franchise. Sadly, in the country of free speech telling the truth is a horrible crime apparently and should be punished even if it derails a stablished rebrand.

This is pulling very strong numbers on Twitter I think it can do very well, seems to have a broader appeal than Cabin

He’s producing the debut movie of his other daughter (Ishana i think), and it looks great. He couldn’t produce a movie for one daughter and not give something to the other, a good dad!

This would rule so hard lol

Great trailer, very well edited Excited for the movie, Cabin was pretty good

Furiosa presales start on May 7 here in Brazil. Normally starts here the same day or right after US presales start, so it seems like it’ll be a relatively short cycle.

So they delayed a finished movie with good test screenings for fully 14 months? This is so insane lol At this point i do believe the rumors that Zaslav is preparing to sell or merge WB and simply doesn’t want a box office bomb in this quarterly earnings.

IMO this franchise appeals mostly to older audiences, maybe it have something to do with it’s low engagement compared to other blockbusters That said i agreed that there’s no much reason to expect a boom here. I’m expecting very similar results to Fury Road (which means a considerable drop in admissions). Just hoping it’s a good movie

They didn’t lie tho

Noooo, it’s the remake hahah The original is very good, not my favorite either but undeniably good.

The first movie is a souless and stupid waste of time, the still they released for this is awful and yet ... i´m morbidly curious about what Jenkins can put into this [or if he can] I´m expecting another boring snoozefest, but it wouldn´t completely shock me if this turned out to be those rare surprisingly decent sequels to awful movies [like Ouija 2 from Flanagan]

This is a very tiresome and boring discussion but i have to say ... anyone that watches movies regularly can tell very clearly that this is a musical based on it´s trailers Not putting them singing for 3 minutes straight isn´t hiding, there shouldn´t be a discussion about this imo but good for the movie if they can make something so obvious generate arguments

89 on MC with 17 reviews insanely good reception, hopefully it will turn out to good numbers I’m a bit sad about good movies this year bombing despite great reception

Napoleon is mediocre because the movie is a snoozefest past it´s first half, i´m not expecting the same here clearly. And honestly, this is a beloved movie but it doesn´t have fanbase and people actively overanalyzing it, i´m sure most people from general audiences would be fine with dumb fun if it´s you know... good and well made

This insanity sounds way more interesting than whatever serious thing i though they would do The best thing about Napoleon was the stupid comedy all over it´s first half, if Ridley can make epic dumb fun with this he should be fine
