Doctor Sleep | November 8 2019 | Ewan McGregor is Danny | Jacob Tremblay joins

[Hatebox]

Gotta say, reviews have made me tempted. Fair play.

[Jonwo]

I wonder what the budget was? Given it has Ewan McGregor and Rebecca Ferguson, I'd say $35-40m.

 

I imagine whatever the film does box office wise, WB will probably want to use Mike Flanagan for another film.

I hope he gets a Conjuring universe film!

Lets not waste him in that please. That franchise is dead.

Good movie but General audiences most likely won't like it.

its got 95% verified audience score on RT so far, early but sort of impressive . Since these are from previews i'm not sure what it means for general audience

Stephen King films are always divided by audiences. The Shinning, Carrie, Shawshank Redemption, Green Mile, and Misery are normally the positive ones. 
 

While adaptations of Cell, Dreamcatcher, Thinner(which I like), and Dark Tower are deemed the bad ones for example.

this was ok. mike flanagan never really earns the sappy moments in anything i've seen from him. i always feel like he wants to scare me and make me cry and usually ends up with a result that causes neither reaction! surprisingly i had this the wrong way around based on the trailers. the hipster monsters eating superpowered children is cool and fun and the stuff actually related to The Shining is totally botched.

This came out on Thursday here but I need to play catch up, having a double bill tomorrow, Secret screening on Monday then this next weekend.

Exposition and sappiness is Flanagan's Achilles heel. It doesn't jive with Kubrick's Shining.

Kubrick.

Emotion.

 

Two words combined that can't make sense.

probably why Hush is still the best thing I've seen from him. less of that stuff. short and sweet.

The Haunting of Hill House - I never got through it. Think I made it to Episode 5? The scares are good and all but I did not care about these boring ass people and their boring ass problems that were boringly acted.

Wow, I think the opposite. I think Hush is the only movie of his that is not good at all.

[imbruglia]

The Haunting of Hill House  was amazing. I didn't know it was same director. more hyped now.

 

[CloneWars]

The film looks good, but I will say this, it doesn't look like a horror film at all. I know it's a sequel to a horror film, but the trailer makes it look like more like a gothic fantasy film.

I liked the first five episodes but the rest of the show is very weak and completely misses the point of the book.
