FilthyImp posted:Dude, how do you list all those but leave out the brilliance that is SUBURBAN COMMANDO (originally what Devito and Ahnuld were signed on for before the Twins script happened). I think it's all attempts to recapture the magic of Arnie without realising he was perfectly good at being a comic actor.

I'm apparently the resident cheerleader for it, so I'll quote myself from when the trailer first arrived: Alehkhs posted:Back when word came out that James Cameron's followup to Aliens was set in the deep sea with a possible extraterrestrial influence, several competing studios thought, "Ah, he's making Aliens under the sea." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jCFWEzIVILc https://twitter.com/UnderwaterMovie/status/1203720899012235266 Someone in the Horror Thread noted earlier today that Deep Rising also came out in January, so it's just carrying a torch at this point.

Don't really understand people who love Kristen Stewart. She looks perpetually bored. Apparently they finished filming this almost 3 years ago. I'm guessing TJ Miller getting a bunch of his lovely behavior exposed right about that time might have something to do with the delay.

I remember the local video store when I was a kid had a copy of Deepstar Six and the cover terrifying me. Never saw the actual movie but from what I heard it's not as good as what scared kid me imagined it would be like.

Serenity has to be one of the more bizarre plot descriptions I’ve ever read for a film, and that includes poo poo like Book of Henry

OP seems to be saying Unplanned made -17M overseas, which would be great, but i dont believe is true. Someone spoil Serenity for me, i'm too lazy for Wikipedia and goons are usually more entertaining.

Tars Tarkas posted:The Witches - A remake of the Roald Dahl book (I guess technically a new adaptation but whatever) with Anne Hathaway as the leader of the witches This is one of the few remakes/adaptations on the list that feels completely pointless. The 1990 film is almost perfect and I love it, even if the scene where Anjelica Huston and the rest of the witches turn into a bunch of hideous rats scarred me for life as a child.

One More Fat Nerd posted:OP seems to be saying Unplanned made -17M overseas, which would be great, but i dont believe is true. Matthew McConaughey is a fisherman named Baker Dill (seriously) living on this tiny island obsessed with catching a giant tuna called "Justice". He gets approached by his ex wife Anne Hathaway who offers to pay him $10 million to kill her rich husband who is abusing her and their son. McConaughey hems and haws about killing the dude or not. Then all of a sudden it's revealed by a fishing gear salesman that they are actually inside a video game. The real Baker Dill (who as it turns out has a much more normal name) died in Iraq and the movie takes place in a fishing video game Dill's son has modded to cope with his stepfather's abuse and he recreated his dad, mom and stepdad inside the game. The game itself tries to stop Dill from killing the virtual step dad since it's "against the rules" (nobody is supposed to die in a fishing game I guess) but he manages to do it anyway, and this in turn gives his real son the courage to stab his real step dad to death. The End. I'm not making this up. This movie EXISTS. AceOfFlames fucked around with this message at 18:14 on Jan 2, 2020 |

There is no way they'll make it anywhere near as terrifying as the 1990 version.

Never saw the actual movie but from what I heard it's not as good as what scared kid me imagined it would be like. Deepstar Six isn't the worst, but it's not bad. I'd strongly recommend the Peter Weller movie Leviathan though if you haven't seen it. Basically Alien but underwater with really good sets/strong cast/etc. Not nearly as good as Alien of course, but it's drat solid. Lastdancer posted:Contact is perfect it doesn't need no remake...! I had no idea I wanted a remake of Freejack until now. Whatever would be done with such a thing, my only need would be that it sits on the shelf for about four years before coming out. Same on a Contact remake, why? Will they get whoever the current president is to "cameo" in it again? Alan Smithee posted:Make Hackers 2 This reminds of the odd confusion that happened in the 90s/early 00s due to film piracy. The Hackers soundtrack was so popular that two followup albums were made over the next couple of years, called Hackers 2 and Hackers 3 respectively. Shortly after, the unrelated film Antitrust came out, and it was released in some countries with some form of the word "hacker" in it. Long story short between that and the soundtrack people thought Hackers was a series of films and would end up viewing Antitrust by mistake because people would level bootleg DVDs of Antitrust "Hackers 3" or whatever and it would be listed on those old file sharing sites as Hackers 2 or Hackers 3, which would lead to an amazing level of not what you were expecting if you wanted something like Hackers.

My favorite part of Serenity is whoever made it was clearly so proud of that twist, they revealed it 3 separate times in 20 minutes and all of them were way too early in the movie.

Serenity gives me hope for the future because the one upside of China taking over the movie industry is we're going to be getting even more amazingly lovely movies like that made by Chinese investors who can just be bamboozled into supporting terrible vanity projects.

Jena Malone, who played the young Eleanor Arroway in Contact, is now 35, which is how old Jodie Foster was when the 1997 movie came out, so they should just get her for the remake. That way they can simply reuse that beautiful into-the-mirror tracking shot.

Between the two of them, Arrival and Interstellar are kind of remakes of Contact. One does the wormhole and time dilation stuff (and McConaughey), one does the communicating with aliens and dead relative stuff.

Looks like the New Mutants that "will" get released this year is going to be the original cut that was rumored to test well.Sir Kodiak posted:Jena Malone, who played the young Eleanor Arroway in Contact, is now 35, which is how old Jodie Foster was when the 1997 movie came out, so they should just get her for the remake. Also Malone is great and it's a drat shame that her career didn't take off in a bigger way.

I mentioned this in the last thread, but Gretel & Hansel is by Ozgood Perkins, son of Anthony Perkins and director of The Blackcoat’s Daughter and I Am The Pretty Thing That Lives In This House. The Blackcoat’s Daughter was good, so I’m interested in Gretel & Hansel.

Is horror the only genre that has successfully avoided the budget bubble? Because it seems like everything else now cost $100 million.
