Who was in the wrong here?
>>214378303Optimus Prime, obviously.
>>214378326kek
>>214378303wierd that they didnt just splice 2 shots together. its a perfect setup for it
>>214378303>>214378326NO OPTIMUS
>>214378303I've fapped so fucking hard to this scene.
>>214378398>>214378475I can't believe it took me 2 years of seeing this pet semetary meme before I made the connection to TransformersI hope OP appreciates it
>>214378303The balloon
>>214378475This scene was so fuckin bad ass bro
>>214379806I liked the highway scene Optimus vs that Construction
I would slap my zombie kid so hard
It's so funny how resurrected Gage has like one tiny scar. Even after the mortician's work, he'd probably at best look like a bloated doll that barely resembled himself, that is assuming there would even be enough of a cadaver to work with as opposed to a mess of limbs and goop.
>>214378303That movie was retarded. Stephen King is the biggest hack alive.
>>214378303To be honest the boy had every opportunity to not be there but he CHOSE to be there. So the fault is on HIM.
>>214378303Is this from Pet Sematary?
>>214378303The dad for allowing it.
I think if my son died like this you'd never see me again. I wouldn't kill myself but I'd just be kind of done as a person.
>>214381461The right answer.Also, it was Ultra Magnus
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nr5kRk0Ba5IThis is SO much better than the trash original
>>214381530you're being provocative in order to make people angry but it is a good cover
>>214378303The driver was a pajeetThank you Gavin Newsom
>have opportunity to make a better Pet Sematary adaptation>have retarded oooospooky kids in masks, subvert le expectations by making the dead kid the fucking daughter, have the returned focus on trying to resurrect more dead for who the fuck knows what reasonWhy did they fuck this up so badly?
>>214381567The original IS trash, it's completely unfitting, not to mention the singer can't even sing lol
>>214378303jews. they allowed a trucking road through residential rural properties.
This book is the key to King's bullshit trick in his stories. Everyone is just under the influence of this pet semetary. It calls to people, and the people that live in the town are warped by it. This is the same horseshit magical logic the applies to a lot of his stuff - IT, Tommyknockers, Shining. It's pretty lame but it obviously works and is effective as a horror device to explain why anything is happening.
>>214381934I didn't sense that in the OG film. Thankfully cause I hate King's tropes.But I watched the prequel with Natalie Alyn Lind and David Ducovney and yeah, it pretty much possessed the town. Just like Children of The Corn.
>>214382460If you read the book it's in there.
>>214378303that truck smashed that kid like a pro, it's hard not to root for the truck
>>214382665I don't doubt it, the prequel was said to be closer to the source material than the sequels.
>>214381621It's an unspoken rule in Hollywood that you can't have talented writers making sequels or reboots to successful franchises.
>>214382665Honestly it works better as just being a dark secret that people can't help themselves but to share, instead of the wendigo or whatever having a mystical influence on people.
>>214382778Probably, but with him it's always Indian curses and aliens and, well, pretty much those two. Guy found his notes that rung true and stuck to the same song for 50 years.
>>214378303
>>214382938Why didn't Optimus transform and leap over him :(
>>214378303gage, for being a retard.
>>214381934nothing wrong with that. it's pretty common. there's a lot of criticism you could lob at king but that's not one of them.
>>214382938Getting hit by a drunk driver was great punishment for King after writing all this slop about dead children.
>>214382938Gage would've been a puddle of mush.
>>214382938The remake should star an illegal immigrant indian let into the country by Biden and given a drivers license by newsom as the truck driver
>>214378303For anyone stopping by this thread:If you get the chance, watch the film with the director’s commentary overlaid. It’s great. I really appreciate it in a way that I didn’t before because of which. All the little considerations and old school movie tricks to make the film work. It’s pretty rad. There was apparently a massive amount of work that went into making the trail to the cemetery “shimmer” in the moonlight, and something like there were 12 different cats to play Church.
Regrettable but he was not strong enough to survive
>>214383157My point is more that he overuses it.
>>214381567The Ramones are shit
>>214383191I am collecting dvd commentaries so I will check it out. Thanks anon!
In the book, the trucks represent White people. Riveting stuff Stephen.
>>214378303The road for facilitating this entire interaction
In reality this should have happened to tank man
>>214383278And in real life, the truck is driven by Indian people who shouldn’t even be in the country let alone have a license
>>214383191There's also a documentary about the movie
it's crazy how they had to run over twelve kids filming this scene
>>214378303Why didn't the kid go "Altered Beast" and flip the truck over.
>>214382938>oh no I'm easily catching up to this toddler even when I'm trying my absolute best to run like a slow disabled retard>uh what do I do>fuck it just fall over for no reasonevery time lmao I wonder why these kinds of movies always insist on having a chase scene that requires fully grown men being unable to catch up to literal babies
>>214378303Who dresses their kid in yellow overalls like this? What kind of truck has such a bright red lustrous paintjob?this screams fake to me
>>214383457name literally three movies with men being outrun by babies
>>214383521child's play 1, 2, 3
>>214383521https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b-0AzH-gD-g
>>214378303Randall Flagg was driving the truck if you look closely enough
>>214378303optimus prime
>>214383556you got me
>>214383610fucking star wars slop
>>214383365odd isn't it, how jeets and similar become taxi drivers worldwide. all over Europe now, the US, Canada, Asia even - and they can't drive for shit and have the most chaotic roads on the planet.
>>214382938Getting hit by a truck like getting hit by water.
>>214382938lil kid would've heard the big ass truck way before that, he got what was coming
>>214378303I don't know what exactly it is about this scene, but it's somehow one of the most real death scenes I've ever seen. It's a really simple concept and doesn't show anything graphic and yet it's genuinely upsetting.
>>214383457It did show him sprinting.
>>214378303The kid. He's in the road where he isn't supposed to be. The trucker is where he should be. Or at worst the child's parents are at fault for letting their toddler run around unattended.
>>214382938Showing all the polaroid photos on the concrete after this scene was a really disturbing inclusion.
>>214384026It's every decent parent's nightmare.
I don't even like King, but the book made me feel dirty and I think it's his only work that tapped into something genuinely evil.
>>214383556not a baby.
>>214384741King is genuinely evil.
>>214380959Oh shit, Dean Koontz died?
I unironically much prefer the second film.
>>214383159Is that why he's on a wheelchair?
>>214378326>>214378475>WHAT I 'VE DONE?!
>>214383610if you watch this as a Monty Python type sketch where with each cut the pursuers are reset to 30ft behind her it becomes slightly better.
Three people were in the wrong. The parents, the parents, and the parents.
Sometimes dead is better
>>214385357It was "Roadmaster". The evil version of Optimus who led the Stunticons
>>214382938I literally saw this happen IRL last month but the mother grabbed the baby before the car came, gave everyone a heart attack
>>2143815302/10 bait
>>214382938if the driver hit the breaks then immediately floored it the truck would have went nose down, kicked up and leaped over the kid but some dudes just can't handle that kind of shit
>>214385384And how do I watch that? Do you have a link to it?
>>214382938Did the driver survive that lol
>>214385829He was fat and ugly so it doesnt matter
>>214378303one of the funniest scenes I've seen to this day
>>214385829No but they buried him in Trucker Sematary so it was ok in the end.
>>214383372Yo, thanks. I’ll watch it.
>>214385903Sounds comfy
>>214385829In the book he did. He also tells the police that he had no idea why he was driving so quickly. He had never done that before and this time was just feeling it. Something about the town negatively affecting his mind.
>>214382938this reminds of that one twin peaks scene where they actually show the kid getting hit. somehow that lynch nigga made it fucking hilarious.
>>214386459>i-i just had to do it! I HAD TO d-drive this quickly, don't ask why
>>214386781It works in the book.
>>214386459>the wendigo made me do it officer
>>214381621>>214382749What typically happens is;>Nepo baby wants to write/direct their own thing>Studio doesn't want to sink money into a risky original ip and gives them a remake/reboot/sequel instead>Nepo baby obviously has no respect for source material and churns out some paint-by-numbers slope while also trying to inject as much of their original ip idea as possible >nobody is happy
>>214380867I forgot that was his name, the only other person with that name is gauge.
>>214382938A magical invisible dwarf caused this btw
>>214381594Why are people thinking his non reaction is proof of guilt? Has no one heard of stunted or delayed reaction to a horrific tragedy. He is a dummy for.doing that uturn but it wasnt done in sheer disregard.
>>214382938I wouldn't have believed that rip and fall if I didn't see a mother do the same thing with a baby carriage
>>214379806Transformers was probably the peak of CGI, you could tell they put a lot of effort into it, modern CGI doesn't look good.>>214380683That was epic.
>>214383191Based commentary chad!>>214383273What other movies commentaries have you enjoyed? Fight club and resident evil are fun as hell to listen to. Joyride with Paul walker and Steve zahn feels like a road trip with cool guys.
>>214382938If I was on that road with my kid, it wouldn't have went down like it did. There would have been a lot of blood in that tractor-trailer cabin and then me saying, 'OK, we're going to drive somewhere safely, don't worry.'
>>214383159Lol what? Children are starving to death and having 2-tonne bombs dropped on their heads right now, but writing about it is obscene?
>>214383357The Chinese protesters in tiananmen square? Yup.
>>214378303lol
>>214387224Based Gauge enjoyer.
>>214385097The mashed potatoes scene with mr crabs is hilarious.
>>214380867In the book he's really fucked up. His head is poorly sewn back on and his face is just a mess in general. Lewis thinks he's gonna fall apart in his hands when he digs him up.
>>214385435Best south park reference .
>>214385097/ourguy/ EddieClancy BrownOh yeah, it's kino time
>>214378303The parents for not keeping a better eye on the kid. The truck driver for driving like a maniac. >B-b-b-but truck drivers have a hard job and have to make it on time to-Yes, I know. I worked at a grocery store distribution center for five years, handling truck driver paperwork, logging their arrival, etc. I know about the hours system and everything. However... it doesn't matter. The only work related speeding that acceptable are emergency servicemen and doctors being called in to save someone's life.
>>214387299Jeets believe they simply respawn after death. Since the family was wrongfully killed, the Jeet driver believes that they will respawn into a higher caste. So he actually has done them a big favor!
>>214381913I can't believe THE JEWS THE JEEEEEEEWS made that little boy run into the road and made that truck driver drive like an idiot. Did they use their psychic powers, you think?
>>214387757>That Time I Was Struck By a Train and Reincarnated In a Higher Caste
>>214378303Building a fence could have prevented this and lowered the obnoxious road noises
>>214378303>>214378326>>214385357
>>214385442It’s Motormaster you fucking retard
>>214382938he tanked that
>>214387425kek
>>214378326"One shall stand, one shall fall."
>>214378326He's about to commit an Optimus Crime
>>214381621Don't forget just making the dead guy a fucking kenyan foreign student who all the white women are really broken up over, it's that kind of senseless faggot bullshit that broke people down over the years.
>>214387757You don't need to make up things to be racist.
>>214378303Your mom, for not aborting you.
>>214378303Stop right there, that child is mine.
>>214383286If only we'd listened to the libertarians this senseless tragedy could have been avoided.
>>214385097my nigga
>>214382938I hope the same director does Jeremy Renner's biopic so we can see the speeding snow plow bearing down on poor Jeremy and afterwards all we see is a bloody jock strap lying in the snow.
>>214378303SHEENA IS A PUNK ROCKER
>>214382938would have been a lot cooler if the truck wrecked and the kid stood there completely unharmed and then he looked at the camera and smiled a wicked smile like the joker and then down with the sickness started playing
>>214378326top kek good sir
>>214383457They could easily have just written him to be further away so he didn't need to fall over. It would have been less silly to have him slip of a banana peel with a pin whistle sound effect followed by a loud splat noise, then followed up with the kid being hit by the truck to the sound of bowling pins.
>>214389843Why was the green goblin on his hood? Was he that popular in the 80s?
>>214389538anon...
>>214382938Houses on either side this is clearly a 25mph residential street, trucker was going way too fast. If he had been going the speed limit even if he still hit the kid there's an outside chance it could have survived.
>>214391414>If he had been going the speed limit even if he still hit the kid there's an outside chance it could have survived.You think a toddler could survive being hit by a semi truck going 25 MPH? I don't think so.
>>214383457On a similar note not a straight up baby but that obi wan show pisses me right the fuck off with that stupid chase
>>214391473Yeah, they actually have pretty precise statistics on it. It's actually not even an outside chance, at 25mph the kid would have had a 75% chance of surviving, even higher chance if it was a smaller vehicle. It's why they set the speed limits the way they do and ban trucks over a certain size on some roads.
>>214381934>Everyone is just under the influence of this pet semetaryThat isn't what happens in the book. It's only what Louis and Jud tell themselves.
>>214383610The worst part is the sudden competence of quickly shooting that guy.If you're gonna make your villains clumsy buffoons stick to it instead of them being clumsy buffoons that are also crack shots.
>>214387299>saaar please understand, he was in the shock ok. he did not doing wrong, he only make uturn saar. maybe not wasnt best uturn but still not his fault ok saar
I always likes how the final confrontation between Lewis and Gage takes place in the morning. There's something creepier about it than if had taken place at night. One thing I wish they'd kept from the book is how the undead know all sorts of secrets about you and your loved ones, like how Gage taunts Jud about how his wife was a buttslut who got joy out of secretly cucking him with his friends.
>>214391546F=MA dude. A fully loaded semi truck weighs like 80,000 pounds, that's like 20 cars worth of mass.
>>214391982His head isn't between the truck and a wall, it'll bounce off the bumper. Hold your hand out as a semi passes at 25mph and it won't even break your bones, would just sting like a belly flop.
>>214391982what if he was hauling helium
Unironically the dad was at fault>first scene of the movie has the kid almost wandering into the road and getting hit by a truck, but is saved by Jud>Jud informs the doctor that the trucks drive too fast on the road and they are constantly driving by>Doctor, knowing this, doesnt think to put up a low fence along his property to keep his kid safe
>>214392142If Mike Tyson punches you in the face is your head going to bounce off his fist? That fist probably weighs about 5 pounds not 80,000 pounds.
I tried to watch a Netflix Pet Semetary with the younger Herman Munster character, but instead of taking place in the 1940s, it took place in the 1970s. It was fucking garbage.
>>214378326One shall stand, one shall fall.
>>214392308Sorry, not interested in your bro science, we have actually statistics that prove you wronghttps://www.moneygeek.com/living/driving/pedestrian-chance-of-survival/
>>214391624I dont like the guy but his stoic reservation shouldn't be a testament to his intent and state of mind.
>>214391772The baby talked in the book?
>>214391473Amazing that kid walked away but he might have ruptured an organ.
>>214392526Yes>Gage was grinning at him.>“Hello, Jud,” Gage piped in a babyish but perfectly understandable voice. “I’ve come to send your rotten, stinking old soul straight to hell.”>“Norma’s dead, and there’ll be no one to mourn you,” Gage said. “What a cheap slut she was. She fucked every one of your friends, Jud. She let them put it up her ass. That’s how she liked it best. She’s burning down in hell, arthritis and all. I saw her there, Jud. I saw her there.”>“Listen, Jud,” it whispered—and then its mouth hung open, baring small milk teeth, and although the lips did not move, Norma’s voice issued forth.>“I laughed at you! We all laughed at you! How we laaaaaaauuughed—”>“Stop it!” The cleaver jittered in his hand.>“We did it in our bed, Herk and I did it, I did with George, I did it with all of them. I knew about your whores but you never knew you married a whore and how we laughed, Jud! We rutted together and we laaaaaauuughed at—”
>>214392612This is shit writing on King's part. Zombie Gage is still a baby and wouldn't know those words.
>>214392661The whole point is that the walking corpse is no longer the same being that died.
>>214387299It's proof of lack of sentience
>>214392703>The whole point is that the walking corpse is no longer the same being that died.I don't disagree. The zombie is now a killing machine. But there's no way that their vocabulary would just shoot up with words they could have never heard before.
>>214392753No, it's literally not the same being. Gage is dead and gone on to wherever. A demon is puppeting his corpse around.
>>214392753They're at least partially controlled by the wendigo, or whatever other malevolent forces bring them back. It's the same reason why he could channel Norma's voice.
>>214392818>A demon is puppeting his corpse around.Is that from the book? Because if it's not it's headcanon. The pet semetary sends your body back as a murderous, rotting corpse. Judd told the story of the friend of his that died in the war and was buried in the Pet Semetary and he didn't have a new vocabulary. He was just a barely functioning thing that they knew they had to kill.
>>214381530>Not the 'Muncie Girls' versionhttps://youtu.be/h8bVSse1k3s?si=XpeXmTe4RzFa1slM
>>214392729Being a dullard isn't a crime.
>>214392311Yeah not even the presence of a zombie loli could save it.
The parents
>>214392612What did Church say?
>>214378303The Ramones.
Is Louis's "It's Thanksgiving Day for Cats" speech one of the greatest monologues ever committed to film?
To this day this is one of the scariest things I've ever seen.
>>214384741There's a moment in the book when the kid taunts Judd, telling him how his late wife was cheating on him with all his friends, that always stuck to me. Something about it struck me as especially vile, more so than any other King's transgressions.
>>214393126what, they just put Iggy Pop in a dress
>>214393126Holy shit, me too. That scared the fuck out of me as a kid. I know it's a horror movie and the entire point is to be scary, but there's just something about that scene in particular.
>>214393331She (he) looks terrifying, acts terrifying, and there's just something genuinely frightening about a sick loved one becoming a shadow of person, both mentally and physically (which of course was the main theme of the book/movie).
>>214383159Openly writing about his child killing fetish is not even the worst thing he did. Horrible person.
>>214382938I really thought the joke was going to be that the kid was so short the truck went over him and the driver died for no reason
>>214378326>>214378475Kel
