Yeah. Outside of Mel Gibson no hardcore Christian filmmaker has any talent. It's strange. You would think some of these people would be able to write or direct something good, but nope. It's not impossible to make something "faithful" and good at the same time, but most of them can't hack it for some reason.

Been a great year for horror IMO. It Follows one of the best I've seen in a long while, and The Visit was a pleasant surprise. Still got Green Inferno, The Witch, and Krampus to come. Most years there's only one or two horror films that interest me, sometimes none. This year there's a slew. As far as box office, all of the good ones have been indies, and not exactly greatly marketed indies, or, like It Follows, they're just weird enough or slow enough to not really catch on despite being great movies. The Witch will be another one of those.

Caught The Visit in an advance screening. It's the return to form for Shyamalan we've been waiting years for. Not as great as his first two, but on par with Signs. It's really funny too, and this time intentionally so. The child actors are sensational.

Why do you guys panic so much? Avengers, Mad Max, Jurassic World, Spy, Inside Out, Minions, Trainwreck...we've already had plenty of big hits and uber hits. Take a chill pill. The summer doesn't need saving. You guys percolate in this little bubble and don't realize your expectations are way too high. Rogue Nation is the FIFTH movie in a franchise that was never super big to begin with.

The trailer makes it pretty clear the only reason humans and dinos are side by side is the lack of a certain giant meteor hitting the planet.

I think Prometheus is underrated (despite that holy script, it's extremely well-directed), but The Counselor is so nihilistically awful it's hard to fathom, and Exodus was gorgeous to look at but otherwise thoroughly mediocre. For now I'll keep giving Scott a chance, but if this one goes the way of his recent output, that might be it.
