No way!
No way!
Tarantino has some stupid-ass rules for himself. Won’t watch a remake, won’t make films past 10, likes Joker 2…
I mean, I can understand him not liking Oliver Stone’s version of Natural Born Killers… even though I enjoyed it more on multiple viewings, but to not even give some remakes a chance… it’s just stupid.
Imagine not watching The Wizard of Oz because he’s seen the 1925 version. Or Scarface, or The Departed, or Cape Fear, or The Thing, or Ocean’s 11, or The Birdcage.
And didn’t he pitch a remake of First Blood and thought about remaking his own Reservoir Dogs?
I like his movies, but he’s a hypocrite.
This looks as generic as eating plain yogurt while wearing a white golf shirt and a pair of beige cotton Dockers at a bus stop.
Saw the musical, though off Broadway. Didn’t like the musical… maybe two songs, but that’s it.
This will likely not be great, but probably will make money. Both performers seem like annoying narcissists to me.
I enjoyed it for what it was. Maybe it helped that I saw it on the big screen. It’s difficult to bring new life into what is now the ninth in the series. But overall, I thought it was decent, but not great.
I did think Prey was a fantastic chapter to the Predator series and I saw that at home. That’s how you reboot a franchise.
I used to think Monkey Shines was based on a Stephen King story. And so I thought The Monkey was a remake of that. But no… they are two separate stories by two separate writers.
This looks good though.
Yeah… and Coming 2 America wasn’t as awful as many on that list. I was pleasantly surprised despite the stupid title name. No where near as good as the original, but better than expected.
I can’t recall Star Trek Nemesis, but I’ve seen all the Star Trek films and I never thought any were bad enough to be put on this list.
I liked the first one, but not really the second one.
I dunno. Maybe I need to give it another chance as others seem to enjoy it more than the first.
But see how evil he looks…

Saw it last night. It wasn’t terrible, but can’t really recommend it either. There were good things in there, some surprises, but some stuff that felt slow and not needed for the story. Too many plotlines that wrapped up too quickly at the end. Several jokes didn’t land for me either. Maybe when I see it again, I’ll like it more.
This is what happens when studios don’t negotiate in good faith with their workers, the ones writing/filming/editing the actual movies.
You get strikes, then you get less content to show later on.
You also get Deadpool with his mouth sewed shut like during a previous strike.
I was kinda upset with Disney/PIXAR for not bringing back Bill Hader and Mindy Kaling due to pay disputes.
Amy Poehler got $5 million plus bonuses… and they offered Bill and Mindy $100k each. Now, I know Amy’s character Joy is the most important with likely the most lines, but that’s a huge difference. And then you cut out taxes, pay managers, agents, lawyers… the amount is a lot less. A slap in the face.
Would kids notice the difference in voices? Probably not. But then why hire those actors to begin with on the first movie?
Teeth (whole jaw) and arms. Michonne did this to travel around as their smell would cover hers so other walkers couldn’t detect her.
I did enjoy Chris Pratt’s Mario, which was unexpected. I don’t know about Jack Black’s performance in Borderlands, but he was good as Bowser.
I also don’t know how much of their voices were manipulated however.
Yeah. I doubt very much Borderlands will be good, but I’ve been wrong before.
I didn’t think “Puss in Boots: The Last Wish” was going to be that good. I thought it was fantastic.
They say there’s going to be a Donkey standalone movie as well. Again, not sure how good that will be, but time will tell.
Well, my expectations were really low for that so I didn’t mind that as much as others.
My expectations were slightly higher for this and so I didn’t enjoy it as much. It’s not the worst thing. It’s watchable, I got a few chuckles, but it’s simply meh. It didn’t need to be made, but for two hours, it’s fine.
I think it was about ten-fifteen years too late.
Yup… slightly different, a lot older.
I get that they want to keep it similar style, but man they didn’t take any risks.
It’s like watching episodic TV. There are no surprises.
Saw it. It was okay. Expect everyone to be old. Expect the writer to take the same beats as previous movies. There were a few lines that were funny, but Murphy is obviously not the same young kid from the first movies.
I liked it better than 3, but that’s not saying much. 1 and 2 were far better. Don’t expect a Top Gun: Maverick experience by any means.
To me it’s about balance and design. I’ve been in cars with too many physical buttons and those can be a distraction too.
