It totally is.
Not because he's an abusive asshole.
But because it's total crap now as it was 30 years ago.
No man.
The thrill is gone.
Nobody gives a fuck anymore. Stallone mastered the sequel idea in his career.
It's actually back then that the concept was mastered in Hollywood.
Nowadays, 40 years later, it's abused as every fucking movie has a sequel. It's not only expected, it's sure.
If anything, most of the times the only surprise it's a "they are making a sequel to THAT?!?!" situation.
But mostly, it's just assumed.
And certainly, as thrilling as a new McDonalds: Wow! I wonder what they will serve in there!!!!
Totally correct.
It's how specific it is that is offputting.
It does not feel organic with the rest of the writing.
It smells of screenwriting class 101 "my character needs a reson to react and do this and this".
"Well, he could get mad when he is called chicken".
So they forced this random gimmick in.
I have to say, you enjoyed it more than I did.
I found Hamm particularly off in this, not his performance but the way he does not fit the smug, funny, slobby character. He keeps trying to go against his Draper persona but I think it is not working.
And yeah, I hated the wrap up but I was not surprised like you, the whole movie put Fletch behind Griz and pretty much everyone else.
This project was the dream of those same asshole types that said 007 is a chouvinistic dinosaur from the 60s and he needed to apologize and be cancelled. In many Craig's movies they address this, but thank God his character keeps his stubborn way to act and seems not to care too much.
In this Fletch movie instead, that same sentiment is so transparent and dominant that it overwhelmed everything in the film, starting with its main character, to expose him and to point out his flaws and ridicule him for them. It felt like they wanted to retell his story out of hate for him, so they could fix what was said in the 80s and make it right.
"She would make great choice as Dil in a remake of The Crying Game, just add a prosthetic in the reveal scene."
That is a great idea.
Max, but most other guys too, is mad about seeing his name and his franchise being dragged into movies that do not star him.
That is a fact.
I can only imagine her disappointment when she realized there was no handjob scene. Poor Nicole.
So it was YOU!!!!
Cinema is doing just fine.
Cinemas on the other hand are dead, with 115"tvs nobody wants or needs to go there anymore and be forced to sit next to an asshole coughing for 2 hours.
Hey, she was great in The Ice Storm.
Which is an awesome reson not to cast her in Face/Off.
You can suck on an alien dick instead, Rorikock.
Well, he is fucking right.
I want my dollar back.
This.
Both great, this is clearly greater.
Yes, vapid is very appropriate, a vapid movie about ghosts.
It needed solid creative input like the first GB (great writers, director, actors, producers) who could think on two feet and improv their way into a classic.
The ones behind this turd are some talentless kids that got their homework handed to them and could not even copy it properly.
Good for you that you had that 1 laugh.
I found that Spin Doctors joke to be genz lame at its maximum: let's use a one hit wonder from the 90s as a target, those old folks are so old for us young and hip har har har.
Other than kissing this lame as fuck generation's collective ass, it did not do anything for me, like the rest of the movie.
Paul Rudd, which I like, was wasted, limited and felt as old as the old GB (which is weird for him). He was there to play this lame shoulder to the cool heroes of the movie: the kids. And my God, those kids are more insufferable and unfunny than the women in GB16.
This movie is a tragedy in filmmaking.
Yes this is it.
Ignore that ridicolous SW post above here, that is just nonsense bullshit.
Yeah I guess you are right.
But it still feels jarring to see them like that.
What women?
He looks and sounds like a cock aficionado. Like you and the OP.
Just look at his face. He is a fucking loser!
You forgot to say that she also stars smoking to fit in.
