  1. The trailer is selling the movie, but it's just an aspect of the movie. It's a bigger, crazier flick than the marketing is letting on. I also thought it was genuinely scary. The score is excellent.
  2. I’m really curious to see how audiences respond - this movie is WEIRD. It’s great weird in my opinion, but it’s really gonna rub some people the wrong way.
  3. Bold choice to make Chucky look like Gary from Team America.
  4. The mid-credits scene was originally the actual ending of the film.
  5. There's basically no horror in it - Babyface disappears for huge stretches. The movie just isn't about that. It's great, though. Witty, weird, charming, sweet.
  6. In all seriousness, I've known Adam for years and he's a really great guy. He deserves this success.
  7. My opinions for the record: MAN OF STEEL is okay, BATMAN V SUPERMAN is pretty bad (but the Director's Cut is sizably better), SUICIDE SQUAD is awful, WONDER WOMAN is good, JUSTICE LEAGUE is very flat, and AQUAMAN is fun - my JL and AQUAMAN opinions were on record months before the films came out and I'd say are at least reasonably close to GA response. Also, DEADPOOL 2 *was* a mess. 30 minutes longer and considerably flatter. It was the Super Extended Cut, but way more bloated.
  8. Yup. Really interesting, worthwhile ideas; very disappointing-bordering-on-flat-out-bad execution.
  9. It feels super cheap. Some major events feel like they didn't have enough shooting time to convey the proper amount of weight. Also lots of people are gonna hate the ending and what Night is ultimately saying with these films.
  10. It's a frustrating movie. I don't think reaction to it is going to be toxic, though. Just mixed.
  11. Based on the massive overpredictions for MAN OF STEEL, BATMAN V SUPERMAN, and JUSTICE LEAGUE, shouldn't this say "Finally, DC not overestimated!"?
  12. I don't even think you need to go so far on the opposite side of the spectrum as THE DARK KNIGHT. One of the things I loved about INTO THE SPIDER-VERSE is it had the self confidence to be serious for a few minutes at a time and let the dramatic moments land. Contrast that with GUARDIANS VOL. 2 (a movie I liked) where every - single - serious - moment is undercut by a joke, so consistent you could set your watch by it.
  13. Because people convinced themselves it was going to crush tracking, so when it “merely” comes in on the higher side of what people forecasted months ago, posters weigh it against their inflated expectations
  14. You mean like how Warner Bros has continued The Dark Knight Rises' story?
  15. Spider-Man 4 was cancelled because of the massively ballooning budget and lack of enthusiasm from Raimi, not because of Spider-Man 3's reaction.
  16. Anyone have a time machine I can borrow to jump back to 2011 and put a prop bet on the next Halloween sequel having a higher opening weekend than that year's Harry Potter movie?
  17. I hate Rocky IV - it's pretty easily my least favorite - and liked Creed II a whole bunch. I don't think it's quite as good as Creed (I think that film is exceptional), but it's really good on its own. Tessa Thompson is phenomenal in it.
  18. At the very least, WB's logo plays at the front of CREED II. How I know that... 🤐
  19. Just remember that it's one guy's opinion. As WrathofHan said, one dude blasted HALLOWEEN on Twitter, and I hardly made it a secret that I didn't like DEADPOOL 2 very much. One person does not a consensus make.
  20. Was just going to say this! There was a test screening last night. Not sure if the review is legit though, as I haven't heard anything about the movie's quality.
  21. I'm kinda thankful we can't track U.S. box office in real time because I'd never leave my computer. Jesus, just reading you guys was exhausting and fun.
