>horrible digital photography, dubious lighting, and bad CGI>soap opera tier dialogue (some of it so bad that I refuse to believe it was lifted from Shelley)>Oscar Isaac, one of the best actors of his generation, gives a completely undirected performance, flailing and gurning>as always, the monster dindu nuffin (didn’t it murder William and Elizabeth in the book?)Aside from the predictably impeccable production design and Elordi’s performance, this film was completely pedestrian and underwhelming. What the fuck?? I thought this is something that Del Toro has worked at and thought about for decades, why is the direction on the level of a high school play? An interesting contrast for this film is Eggers’ Nosferatu: both are idee fixe passion project classic horror remakes, with roots reaching back into the physically meticulous writer-director’s childhood, yet Nosferatu -- which is by no means a perfect film -- completely mogs Frankenstein and succeeds in all the things this film failed at.
>>215552271Can I get a style check?
>>215554250Del Taco literally made frankestein kill elizabeth and the monster literally dindu nuffin, he doesn't even try to kill anyone, he WAS monster in the book.
>>215551970Critical Drinker liked it and I trust him more than you
>>215557097>he doesn't even try to kill anyoneHe literally killed Victors brother a bunch of farmers and sailors also some CGI wolves
I thought he was against cgi
Damn. No Ana De Armas in the next mission impossible now

>>215544484They need to make a movie with Cruise, DiCaprio and Brad just to get something of interest on the table. All these old actors can sell anything on their own anymore.

lol, this thread is brimming with bitter incels who have been "blackpilled" to hate women. It's like an /r9k/ thread or something.

> Have you ever been mistaken for a man?
>>215554236>No but I don't think you have either Jonah.
>>215554236Was Jonah's entire change in appearance caused by this one incident?
>>215556039most of the alleged "abuse" is Jonah having his gfs re-enact the Ornelia affair with a different script on a daily basis
>>215556808Yup. I couldnt believe an hollywood megastar would get absolutely mogged and mindbroken by a rando french girl telling poor "you so fat" jokes but she did it, the mad lady!

>Political and religious leaders, billionaires, bankers? Nah I'll just kill petty criminals, that will surely bring order to the world.I thought this guy was supposed to be smart?
>>215555930In a way he is representative of the Japanese culture. The perfect societal product, a prodigeous stand-up young man with good values and morals, but who completely fits the mold and never tries to question the authorities or people in power. It doesn't even cross his mind.>>215556165Exactly but let's not forget he's 23 by the end of Death Note so there's no excuseBut people need to stop with the bankers are evil trope, it's not 2008 anymore
>>215555930Light being smart is a meme. He's an open criticism of the kind of person Japanese society tries to churn out on an assembly line. He's a hall-monitor that shows what happens when you actually get someone like that hammering every nail they set their sights on, threatening to disassemble the society that made him in the process.
>>215556682>>215556691No I'm not a pedophile. I'm also not a manchild who watches "cartoons" for "adults". Fuck off to reddit.
>>215557047>>dies of old ageas long as Ryuk exists, that was never gonna happen, imagine some shithead demon hovering over your head for 40 years - you'd off yourself by year 5 at the latest if that thing had any malicious intent whatsoever after getting bored of your mundane routine. The series plays him off as this passive entity but that's only cause light is the exact kind of egomaniac that ryuk is hoping for He even laughs when he sees light's lifespan. If some pointdexter picked it up with the intent to do some small good deeds like killing a bully or maybe a local mob boss or something and going quiet for 8 months at a time - you really think Ryuk would even let that brat sleep?
>>215556682Usogui is fun but I don't see the comparison with Death Note, besides "smart people playing each other", in which case Usogui is far more ridiculous than Death Note and probably takes itself less seriously as well
Saw the first episode, what did I think of it?
>>215555680>Derry a boring town with a dark history and no racism to really speak of is now a full on racist town that hates the brave good black peopleNigger, did you even read the book? If so, did you forget the Black Spot? Did you forget about Henry and Butch Bower's deep seated hatred towards Mike and his family? Even in the original book, there was a lot of racial shit going on in Derry.
>>215556825Stephen King is notorious for including racial shit in his novels. He even has the shining end with the black cook stealing the white dude's wife.
>>215556876>He even has the shining end with the black cook stealing the white dude's wife.No he didn't.
>>215556704>Also what was the deal with the whole airforce base shit and the presumably Soviet spiesthey want this series to be their stranger things
>>215554012>Isn't that because kids have more tasty fears because of their limitless imagination? While adults mostly have grounded fears related to boring things like money, work, social status etc.Yes, that's more or less explicitly stated in the novel. Instead of targeting adults directly, It casts a sort of spell over Derry as a town that prevents most (adult) people from looking into or caring about what is happening*, which explains why no one outside the town is aware of the fact that, even in "off" years, Derry has a child murder/disappearance rate that would be extremely alarming national news. *there are mentions of people who end up fleeing the town regularly, but it's more out of a general feeling of fear/unease than any specific knowledge
Does A Nightmare on Elm Street series mog Friday the 13th series? Which is better overall? Which has the highest high? The lowest low? What about the Halloween series?
>>215555021the original is not a good movie
>>215555091you're right, it's a great movie
>>215555143You have awful taste, and should kill yourself.
>>215553559no, FT13 as a series is significantly more enjoyable and consistently entertaining for longer stretches of films. I really like the original NES, but sequels are not nearly as good. They have their moments and the series is relatively unique though. NES sequels are like proto-Saw movies where the spectacle of the torture becomes the focus. FT13 does a great job of being a better pure slasher, and, as mentioned before, the sequels are significantly better relative to the original and even golden age compared to NES and its sequels.
That nurse’s nude scene is easily the franchise-best nude scene.
Is there any chance this will be good and not woke?
>>215554894Ryan is an incredibly shitty actress, so probably not.
>>215557021No she isn't.

How is this fair?Japan is beating the west just because their movies are dirt cheap, not because they're good.
>>215556716>korean animatorsA lot of them even do SEA and LatAm too just like anime because Koreans have gottne too expensive
>>215551866i love reze so much its unreal
>>215551866>Make something cheap>Make something cool (literally called Chainsaw Man, c'mon who doesn't wanna watch that?)>Spend a fuck load advertising it>Make profitReally not that hard. But then again Kikes don't even care about box office cause they're propagandists.
>Marvel is plunking down $80 million for Anthony and Joe Russo to direct “Avengers: Doomsday” and “Avengers: Secret Wars”. The Russos’ deal doesn’t include back-end compensation, but it does contain performance escalators that kick in at the $750 million and $1 billion thresholds.>Downey Jr.'s base salary is $100 million for Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars, with additional incentives potentially doubling his earnings. Furthermore, his contract includes perks such as private jet travel, dedicated security, and a "trailer encampment".I wonder why Hollywood isn't making a profit anymore.
>>215551866>Japan is beating the west just because their movies are dirt cheap, not because they're good.Disney and their shills still don't get it
Why is this movie hated again? I have only fond memories of it
GenX malcontents thought it was just bootleg Ghostbusters

What went so wrong?
That dude fell off so hard, a whiff of it and he was done.

Panned by critics but it's actually pretty funny at times. Certainly watchable.
how in the fuck did this shit get a 93% on RT
Not OP, but I did have to read a summary after watching the movie for the themes to be explained to me, and then it all made sense and I better appreciated what I'd just watched. I'll even admit that I too didn't quite understand who the other hitman was, like OP I even thought he was some kind of special agent working within the law. Normally I have to watch a movie like this twice before I understand it like everyone else does on their first viewing. Unlike OP though I don't have an ego about not understanding something and quickly try to inform myself. OP, you are either embarrassed that you don't understand and decided to make this thread and act coy about it as a roundabout way of getting things explained, or much worse, you are proud that you don't understand and are acting exactly like a zoomer making a quick tweet similar to 'bruh who tf got time to read a bigass book'.
>>215557050Good post. You admit that you don't get things as fast but you educate yourself so you do understand. OP is the worst type of troll. But these days it's also possible that he's getting a NCFOM discussion going the only way you can anymore, with negativity. Notice how everyone jumps in to defend and explain the movie. This place sucks, but you're okay.
