This is an interesting development.

Not exactly a surprising review of Truth Is.

Gotcha! Would love to know what you thought of Poison and Wine

Oh did you read Poison and Wine or just jump into Truth Is without reading the first film?

Thanks for the marketing Studio has already cut that and plastered it on every poster, Internet ad, and TV Spot

*Nervously laughs and grabs my glass of wine*

@Xillix Can you move Midnight in the Afghan Valley to October 19th?

Flying Spaghetti Monster the Great and Holy Date- December 7th, Y2 Genre- Mockumentary Rating- R Theaters- 2,824 theaters Budget- 25 million Running Time- 85 minutes or 1 hour and 25 minutes Studio- O$corp Pictures Director- Larry Charles Actors and Actress- Flying Spaghetti Monster- Sacha Baron Cohen Plot: In Flying Spaghetti Monster the Great and Holy, the Flying Spaghetti Monster goes on trial to earn his godhood among a council of deities that includes Jehovah, the Buddha, Ganesh, Cthulhu, and Morgan Freeman. He is interviewed for an exclusive episode of the celebrity talk show "In the Monster's Studio" to discuss his relationship with Godzilla and other famous monsters. He rears his head at an archeological dig in a desert wasteland and dines with a horde of food demons in Hell. He rescues pirates, authors, and prisoners from the cold hand of death, while banishing obnoxious children to suffering and starvation. He is a just god, but only if you compliment his vodka sauce. He shows reporters his island volcanic home. Instead of lava, vodka pours out and males/female strippers are abundant across the island. The film is filled with spoofs and jokes about society and religion.

This film is very much a mixed bag and unfortunately leans to the negative end. It just felt messy and the story was fairly dull despite an interesting concept. Maybe it was just me, since it seems every reviewer so fair has seemed to be entertained by the film. The acting was good though even if the characters were not particularly fleshed out enough. Honestly, I can see why others liked it but it just fell short for me especially since I had high expectations for the film.

Well I went in with a love for the Odyssey since it is one of my favorite books. I am a huge sucker for Ancient World epics so you definitely could say this film had an advantage. I liked the film's world building and visual effects. The acting/casting was well. I don't think this will be an Oscar acting film but definitely should get a solid amount of nominations for the cinematography, costume design, and visuals. Best Part: The sack and massacre of Troy. It was a huge visual payoff. Worst Part: The bold writing The film drags in parts and is kind of long however it is mostly forgivable because of the scale of the story.

So today is ending up being a chill day and I will take requests to expand on my grades. Go ahead and fire away!

Yeah I started making Bloody Mary as a good film but then started not to care half way through and wrote most of it half heartedly.

I have the perfect write up for a certain August film and how it relates to wine.

Oh sorry...oops! Our City

I'll go with Closed Domain

The Knight and Our City

That is gonna be a surprise! Even if it is the only one I liked....I didn't like it....I loved it and thats an accomplishment hard to achieve especially with a very over done subject like Amityville.

I am a huge horror fan so I tend to judge horror harder than most. See both these films I just didn’t find scary or unnerving (there is a difference between the two). I found both of them rather dull and boring. Now, I often hate how people say, ‘But that was a shitty horror movie because it wasn’t scary!” That statement is a huge pet peeve because horror is such a broad genre. See films like Happy Death Day, The Babysitter, Krampus, and Scream or Year 2 CAYOM examples The Academy and Deathsgiving. These are horror comedies. These films aren’t meant to be scary but rather entertain with horror elements. I judge these films off entertainment value, humor, and thrills….not scariness. Cello and Skeleton Crew both aren't horror comedies (at least not intentional) so I can't judge them off my horror comedy standards/expectations. You got your atmosphere/unnerving films, Get Out is the biggest example of this one that comes to mind. These films are really meant to be scary, but bring about a unnerving atmosphere to keep the audience is suspense and mental anxiety. You got your gruesome horror films. Saw is the best known. Not meant to be scary or unnerving but rather just gross. These are shit films imo. Then finally you got your scary horror films. Halloween (original), Paranormal Activity (the first one), Exorcist, Blair Witch Project, and It. These films are meant to scary the audience. Both Cello and Skeleton Crew (at least from my perspective reading them) were trying to do this and failed. *I know, sometimes films like It Follows and Halloween (original) also are scary but atmosphere films. Again the genre is broad and rather hard to define* So both films failed at being scary, doesn’t mean they are crap but definitely hits their review grade hard. Let’s say drops it from a perfect 5 star rating to a 2 star rating. Okay, so atmosphere now. Well to me both films also failed this aspect. Neither builds tension or makes me desperate to find out what happens. Maybe its because I am a seasoned horror movie goer. Also the plot of Cello was just stupid and weird (not in a good way.) Skeleton Crew did the best with atmosphere but still failed imo. Well that and the marginal acting knocks them to the bottom of the pile of Year 2 films so far. Like I said before, Skeleton Crew is slightly better than Cello but both just didn’t deliver. Also I have read your other horror films for this year and I know you can write solid horror films and these just seemed like a half asleep effort. Cello is also that obnoxious (Let’s release as PG-13 to we can cash as much box office revenue as possible but than release the R or Unrated cuts on streaming/DVD so we can then cash in on that revenue!” From a business perspective its a solid plan, but from a creative perspective its dumb as hell. If your giving me scary horror or a horror film to unnerve me PLEASE go the fuck out on it. No guts, no glory!

Jesus y'all I don't even know what films I am releasing.
