My wife jumped a few times, in the right places, but l didn’t find it frightening. Then again l have seen more movies than her, so l was expecting most of the the action points.
Finally got around to watching the animated Batman film “the killing joke”. I had heard such great things, but it was pretty disappointing, ending was weird too
The fact Cruise doss all his own stunts too, breaking ankle on the jump, flying helicopters, skydives…he puts people like the rock (over rated) and most other actors in that genre to shame. Regardles what people think of him personally
Just watched predators which I think is very underrated. I believe the predator (as in the Langford) is due in September.
Hope to god they don’t screw it up. I’m hearing stories about rewrites, more shoots etc which is what killed suicide squad. Which had a heap of potential with David Ayer until the producers got involved and said lighten it up because Batman v Superman was so depressing. And stupid.
The new predator has Shane black who is an awesome director. From what I’ve read they’re going in the opposite direction as in they tested it and came back as not scary or dark enough. Ffs.
I’m a movie snob and proud of it and it ■■■■■■ me off when producers start meddling in scripts which would definitely appeal to certain movie goers rather than dilute it for the great unwashed.
I’ve had enough of Hollywood bleeding movies so they can make a killing.
That is not exactly what l said, or rather not what l meant. l wonder what makes them so attractive as a vehicle for movies. First Jaws, and its lame and lamentable sequels, now this. l can’t comment on the Sharknado series, or whatever they are called, as l refuse to watch such silliness.
It’s the fear of the unknown that is the greatest of all.
The dark - under the bed, behind the corner, the rustle, the shadow, down in the abyss, behind the tree…surging up from the depths… a horror of glistening blooody teeth and death
It’s our subconscious throwing back to when we were more prey than now - when it paid to be scared and twitchy. Have you heard the ‘dragon theory’?
Predators is pretty good. The original predator still stands up today, one of arnie’s Best films.
As you said I really hope the new one is good. Shane Black wrote it and is directing it. Which gives me confidence, especially considering he would know more than anyone what made the original great
The less said about the predator sequel the better
