>actually fucking terribleWOW what the fuck was that shill campaign during release? This only got interesting enough to watch during the last 30 minutes of the film. Glad I didn't waste money watching this trash in theatres.
>>214422132can you just kind of run me through it as I just started watching it and am already bored.
>>214422132I liked it
>>214422132It was enjoyable, stop being such a tryhard crybaby.
I just got done watching it. It was good but it's overhyped. It's definitely worth a watch but people are sucking this movies dick way too hard. I guess in a sea of garbage it sticks out. The subtext of 'kill boomers' is pretty based.
>>214422730Crazy witch lady only gets introduced properly 3/4ths of the movie in. Before that absolutely NOTHING happens. Nothing.
>>214422132I think it had a lot of potential, but they spent 1.5 hours (of a 2 hour runtime) repeating scenes from different perspectives when they couldve expanded the lore
I liked it, but honestly I was way more invested in the teacher's and cop's storylines than the spooky stuff. Also the chase at the end was so fucking retarded it made me laugh so much.
>>214423008>it made me laugh so muchYou do realize it's supposed to by funny right?
It's by the guy who made 'Barbarian'If you had high hopes for it then I don't know what to tell you
>>214422132This place is getting worse and worse with the bait
>>214423168it felt out of place with the rest of the movie - and specifically the buildup of the preceding scenes.
This was a good movie and so was 28 years later. Sorry, contrarians.
>>214423216>28 years later
>>214423216>and so was 28 years laterBut what about that fight at the end?
>>214423274I thought it was funny.
>>214422132the last thirty minutes are the worst part of the film
>>214423216Weapons was good, 28 years later was good only the first half
All she had to do was stop drinking and that police guy would drop that hag stacy
>it's a witchBefore that reveal movie was fullscreen, after that I was browing 4chan on the other half.
Was good but a little overhyped like others have said. I would have liked a little more lore and a few of the scenes were too darkly shot which felt streamerslopish, plus the ending didn't quite live up to the potential of the early set up.Overall a solid 7/10
>>214423438Theres no way a straight man likes the dikey jew over the big tittie blonde wife
>>214423463shit, meant for >>214423392
>>214423463Big titty bimbos just aren't my thing. I've always had a thing for alt chicks and understated girl-next-door types. Bimbos are also terrible in bed, it's the shy short hair girl with the nose ring and full sleeve arm tattoo will eat your ass without hesitation.
>>214422132It was too long. And the teacher was insufferable.Setting up a mystery and then just have it be a witch mind controlling people was ass.
>>214423600It was obvious it was going to be something supernatural from the very beginning
>>214423616Supernatural is fine, but in this case it was too simple, which made it both overpowered (this makes the witch look retarded for failing) and easy to use that even a kid could use it after watching her do it once.
>>214423600>a witch mind controlling people was assIt really do be like that though
Remind me, did the witch use the teachers hair for something? I don't remember her being mind controlled.
>>214423616Yeah, true. >>214423651 read my mind.
>>214422132le RESPECT TEACHERS propaganda
>>214423688the hair is supposed to belong to the person the 'weapon' will attack
>>214423761Ah that's right. That's why the Asian guy t-posed across town to find her
>>214423688Yes, she used it to re target Marcus the gay principal after he killed his boyfriend.
Does the climax of the film happen a month after the kids run out at night?So that kid was buying soup on his own for weeks and the store clerks never thought it was weird, in relation to the disappearances?Were the basement kids being fed soup too? That's a lot of soup cans.
>>214424007>Were the basement kids being fed soup too?true. never thought about this. maybe the spell is soo strong it makes the mind ignore starvation and muscle strain (standing all day and night) like the parasites the control bugs
why did he include a dream scene with a huge floating stattrak AR15?
>>214422132>>214422730note that the movie literally lies about the kids never being found at the start, in the voice-over narration. they are found, they all survive. my guess is that the movie got changed a lot during reshoots.
>>214424201Maybe. I would have to listen to the context of that narration again, but (playing devils advocate) maybe it meant they never got found during the initial search (notice no one is searching for them anymore - except Josh Brolin) .
>>214424201>The film's ending was initially going to end with a silent shot of Matthew, but due to negative test audiences reaction, voiceover was added.
is there a movie genre that requires less talent than horror?
>>214424201My read on that is the narrator is speaking from the point in time right before the events of the Justine chapter begin. Haven't the kids been gone a month or so at that point?
>>214424402Romance movie for women?
>>214424402Romance. Cheaper too.
Retarded movie but it's a horror so I didn't expect anything else. Still worth a watch just for the camerawork as many scenes are creatively and/or cleverly shot.
>>214424426direct quote from the beginning
>A bunch of kids literally Naruto running into the night>Its not an allegory for autistic trans children who watch too much animemissed opportunity desu
Here's the exact text of the starting voice over from the script, it doesn't say disappeared it says never came back.
>>214424201I just watched it again, the narrator only said that on THAT NIGHT the kids ran out of the front door and never came back. She never said that the kids were never found.
>this trash>sinners>28 years>eddingtonall fucking suckedI spit on modern movies
Now that it's out on streaming, it's nice that people are finally able to be filtered by it.It gives me joy.
>>214422132So... who did knock on the teachers door in the first segment? And who did the breathing to her phone. Josh Brolin painted her car but was all this also him? Feels out of character desu
>>214422953>Lore Shut the fuck up not everything needs to be expanded upon.
>>214422953>the heckin lore
>>214425867presumably those were all the same person. after she runs out to confront the k
>>214425125>28 yearsdiamond in the rough m8
>>214426459nocker she sees the defaced car
Not watching this, it looks lame. >a witch makes all the kids in town Naruto and they run away into the night to a witches house to eat soup in a basement and then there's a floating AR15
>>214422132It's not terrible. But yeah, embarrassing that it got anywhere near the hype it did
they were really flexing with all the tracking shots in this, especially at the end and the liquor store>>214423777>t-posedI think it would have been scarier if they just ran normally instead of doing the stupid naruto running >>214426524I had the witch part spoiled before watching and it still had some fun parts. 6.5/10 for me
This shot reminded me of IT and was one of the spookier moments imo
>>214426915the problem isn't the witch. its the lack of setup and the way the ending contradicts the voiceover at the start. the movie was obviously just cobbled together from reshoots because the "artistic" version wasn't judged to be marketable enough.
>>214424201I mean, the narrator immediately lies about all kids from the class disappearing, then it turns out one boy actually went to class 1 minute later
The movie only gets fun once Aunt Gladys is introduced, before that it's sleep inducing and filled with well, literallywhocares filler of boring characters talking
>>214423753you are a high schooler
>>214424106They were being fed soup by alex there's literally a scene where he buys all the Campbell's soup and goes down the basement to feed the kids
>>214422132The last 30 minutes was the worst part of the movie thoughbeit.
>>214426524>makes all the kids in town Naruto and they run away into the nightYah, I immediately had this song playing in my head.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=scWSTDsj3IM
>>214422132Haven't seen it yet but so far I've heard considerably good things about itI'll probably watch it over the weekend
>>214422132this guy got got bamboozled by 1 rupee per post shills
>>214428194Pretty sure you only see him feeding his parents. He doesn't buy enough cans for 19 people either.
>>214428852NTA, but no the kids are seen being fed as well.
>>214424201The narrator is a kid telling a campfire story so obviously unreliable. I liked it, it made it more kino imo. >>214428131KINO
The movie needed more Gladys in her deliciously hideous red wig.
>>214422132same thing happened with barbarian
>>214429377>by wrapping the victims hair around this branch and snapping it, I can make them attack you until death>by doing something never explained, I can make them approach you and delicately cut off a lock of your hair
>>214427687>>214427733those few out of place jumpscares spliced in just for the excuse to market it as a horror
>>214422730hack shit #2 from a guy with a "can't do a straight continuous narrative" gimmick, and video game cinematography which is all the rage in the last few years
>>214429480Why even kill the teacher instead of just taking her belongings to make her one of your drones
>>214429480also she made the cop get the junkie out of the cop carhow?who care this is what the script calls for!that'll be $10 million burgers
>>214424007the cops would know they have something to do with it from day 1talking with the kids would be enough but the weird person out of nowhere who claims is an aunt and oh btw the father is catatonic and the mother is in another castlethe writer just brushes it off with cleaning the house and sending the kids to the woods for a few hourshow can she send the kids out?she just can
>>214424201I think they say no one ever figured out what happened, not that they never found the kids.
>>214422132who wouldve guessed that the stoner sketch comedy guy isnt a serious director
>>214423585gay
>>214422132I liked it. Thumbs up 6/10. Not great but better than most everything these days.
>>214425567its a very straight forward movie. the reason people didnt like it isnt because they didnt understand it
>>214429235so the monster in this movie is a clown?
>>214430020barely above average? that sounds like shit
>>214430027if it's very straight forward then how do people not understand it? what are you saying
>>214430119nice reading comprehension bro
>>214422132Stop complaining faggots this was finally a movie that feels original
>>214428775>All right Benedict, for this take, I want you to do it happier and with your mouth open>>214424201>my guess is that the movie got changed a lot during reshoots.No, he literally just started writing the movie with no idea how it would end and then he didn't go back and edit it. It's literally just a guy making up a story for two hours.
>>214430170Agreed. Weapons was a 7.5/10 that turned out to be a big hit that was not a sequel, that's a plus. Materialists also is or just crossed the 100 million dollar mark as an original idea this summer. That's what I hope to see more of.
>>214430168retard
>>214430379you literally failed to understand the words i wrote and you call me a retard?
>>214430409My point was that it is a straightforward movie, there's nothing to not understand. Ironically you're the one without reading comprehension lmao. Retard. Please don't post you add nothing.
>>214430470stop acting fake smug out of embarrassmentyour original post was >Now that it's out on streaming, it's nice that people are finally able to be filtered by it.It gives me joy.you just failed to understand a double negative in my reply and now youre making things up
and weirdly, people seemed lukewarm on eddington but i watched that and it was great weird opinions goin round
>>214430584no one here likes it, we have been dissecting this movie for days i dont even know why, it doesnt deserve it. but it's become a beast and the contrarians are saying it's good. there is a point the contrarians have like this;>>214415524regardless, in my opinion, the movie doesnt warrant even the exaggerated praise
>>214430557I'm not the original poster.I understood you, you're just redundant and type like a retard lmao. You typed two sentences to convey the same idea. Do not reply to me I am closing this dogshit thread.
>>214430691>Do not reply to me I am closing this dogshit thread.come back dont let him bully you!
>>214430027What's there to not understand? The movie having gaping plot holes like >>214429480>>214429599 has nothing to do with people not understanding it.
