I haven't seen a single movie in F&F franchise. And I'm into cars...

Well, most of the world that watched this movie were Chinese. Movie ticket prices probably average under 5 dollars (for 3D lol) and it made 391 million in China compared to 350 million in the states. That statistic is just amazing...

I thought this was the Conjuring 2 thread?

Will The Conjuring 2's RT score be O/U Furious 7's ? it is great to see it getting some decent reviews thus far especially considering it's a horror sequel. No matter what I think it'll stay fresh.

Lets go talk about the Conjuring 2 in the Fast 8 thread.

Yay! 86% is a promising start considering the state of recent blockbusters. I thought it could be good. It looked good in the last trailer.

Horror movie receiving good reviews? Guys, a ton of horror movies get good reviews on RT. Imo, horror movies have less reviewers than blockbusters, and those reviewers are usually already sold on the film. That said, I'm cheering for this movie to do well anyway. My wife loves James Wan.

Yeah but not the mainstream releases. Usually they are trashed. The Witch was the last one to get out unscathed and I don't agree with critics there. The indie one's fare better but they usually have way less reviews then these big releases.

Pretty scathing from Consequence of sound.

"The Conjuring 2 is slick and stylish to the point of distraction; this isn't horror, this is exaggerated carnival fare."

Yeah but that was the original and Insidious. They are carnival fare movies. They are fun but they aren't "frightening" in the way psychological horror is. They just have to be fun. They have to have tension with the jumpscares.

So I'm not put off by that review.

Isn't this rated R? I thought R rated horror movies where box office poison.

Not anymore.

I thought The Witch had amazing acting, if nothing else. My wife disliked it, as did the crowd we watched it with. This genre just has little effect on me. None of these movies are scary. I liked Nightmare on Elm Street from the 80s for it's original concept, and maybe Cabin In The Woods and the original Saw. I liked Annabelle for the main characters because I didn't find anything in it to be creepy, let alone scary. Still going to cheer for the success of this one though...

I dont think I ever  saw a Horror Sequel that is actually as good or better than its predecessor.

 

This is very encouraging.

[Goffe]

they are all trash. Where people see fun, I see death by boredom.

Got screening tix for next Tuesday. And I don't have to go downtown to see it!

IGN gave it an 8.5 and called it excellent. But....don't watch that video review which probably spoils most of the big scares in the movie. Someones talking over them but they are all shown.
