9/10 avg on RT and 82 on MC, pretty fucking solid start. -
Opening with an 8.88/10 avg on rottentomatoes and 85/100 on MetaCritic is the good shit.
-
Yep, I can fuck with this.

LET'S GO

Oh no don't get me wrong, I'm not disappointed, I don't find any horror movie to be particularly scary (especially not either of these IT movies). I brought it up in this case because it felt unusally unscary. Usually I can go "I don't find this scary but I can see how it would be for others and admire the craft behind it". I didn't think that for anything in this movie, the setpieces were mostly just fun time-fillers.
-
Got busy immediately after the movie ended so I couldn't delve into it as much right away. I didn't find a single thing in the whole movie even remotely scary or unnerving, and it didn't feel like anyone else in the theater did either. Horror was basically more of a style here than a genre. It's fun, funny, weird, poorly structured, not as epic as it seems to think it is, and Bill Hader is Oscar calibre.
-
Wow this was more entertaining than good. It feels like it's all just filler, but it's all fun.
-
My screening (in 4 hours) is completely packed. Usually there's at least a few seats in the corners that no one will take, but for this every single seat has been booked and paid for.

Could you just inject this into my face already
-
Oh I definitely don't think she's owed. But I agree, she was the best part of all her films which is a big reason why I'd want her back for what seems to be building up as a final hurrah for the franchise (another one lol). Obviously I don't want to force a character into the story just so she could play her, but if they had one I'd like to see her be around.
-
Of course she wouldn't come back as Jamie Lloyd, but she didn't come back as that character in the Rob Zombie movies either. But I don't think "that's just blatant fan service" works here when you're already bringing back several random actors & characters from the original film, and none of the other actors except possibly JLC are "owed" anything either. That's a really bizarre way to put it.

Black Christmas - cut down from an R rating to a PG-13.

Woah yeah that seemed like a hell of a lot of story info to reveal in a trailer. -
Got my ticket for tomorrow, let's do this.
-
Just saw the 1990 IT, and well yeah, looking forward to getting away from it and on to the 2017 version asap.
-
The 59/100 MetaCritic score is extra frustrating to look at lol. It's so close to a green score, but feels so far.
-
There is, but Ready Player One had a substantially stronger warrant for the certified fresh stamp at this point. EDIT: and now IT 2's gone down to 74%.
-
Yeah now it'll be tough to know. I bet they'll hold out on the certified now.
-
It also depends on how strong the trajectory looks. If it looks like it's any second away from collapsing under 75 or 70, they hold off on making it certified. I don't think that'll be a problem here though, but we'll probably get to about 95-100 reviews in before we see it certified.
-
My case in point for Spielberg is Jurassic Park and Schindler's List in the same year.
-
I'm not a DC nerd but the first that came to mind for me was Hugo Strange. Oh, and you absolutely should catch up on his run, #BestEra.
-
Yeah it's gonna pull it off, it'll be certified fresh.
-
oh shit I forgot there was a teaser. Holy crap, why'd they even make that?
-
A few movies having done it doesn't exactly make it likely compared to how many that have not.
