Deusdaecon Reviews is a show looking at movie franchises and sequels and analyzing the resulting fallout, of poorly executed ideas, bad writing or just plain old cash grabs, but as well as the ugly backside of movies there's also plenty of good out there as well, which the show will endeavor to illustrate.
My terrible habit of overthinking is kicking in hard from the egg/nome thing: Is it just chicken eggs or will any egg from a bird do? Does it even have to come from a bird? Would a helping of caviar do the trick? What about human women? While technically called ovum, they still count as eggs. :p
@@deusdeaconReviews Oh, I'm sure. I'm just being cheeky. lol My mind just has the tendency to dig way too deeply whenever it sees an opening like that. 😂
Thank you for the fantastic reviews as your channel is one of my favorites. Have you seen Hereditary or Midsommar, and if so, have you reviewed them? Take care now and greetings from the United States.
Not gonna lie, I saw the thumbnail and clicked because I thought I was gonna see some well drawn and animated indie horror. Imagine my sadness seeing it was a regular film.😢
Wait....didn't the Thing want to take the smaller saucer and park/crash near a metropolitan region, and not re-freeze itself? I got that from a re-make, I think...
It was something theorized by Blair in this film, and when those plans were foiled, McCready suggested it then wanted to freeze itself cause there's no other option, but the actual thing creature has never confirmed nor denied any plans or intentions in either film.
@@deusdeaconReviews That's right. When McCready found the small ship, Blair said he just wanted to go home but McCready said that Blair just wanted to get out of the tundra and infect/turn our world since he (Blair) had absorbed all the memories of his victims and wanted more. I remember now. Great flick! I saw it with my dad when I was maybe 12 or 13. I was so terrified at the slaughter of the dogs that I ran out of the theatre.
Ok you're wearing a Rick and Morty shirt and there's a guy named Pikel in one episode, never even got that as a reference. Also just watched fallout with tooth bullets
1:40 yeah I really don't like design of the cube in this not only does the mostly bright white walls hurt to look at after awhile but it has the same aesthetic of an Apple store
I know this is an older video, but my wife had a superpower or guardian angel. On MANY occasions, we, at her direction, have left early or late and avoided big accidents. Once if we had left when we intended, we would have hit head on by a speeding mustang. And more recently, she felt like she was going to be late and left early, she would have been a part of a multicar collision that might have harmed if not killed her. But the kid complaining about being scared of the feathers hit pretty close to home.
While I love Ryan Reynolds, I would have preferred to have Nathan Fillion in the role. Not only does he have the look, but I believe his natural personality and charisma better aligns with Hal Jordan's character.
It’s true that maritime law requires a ship to assist a vessel in distress only up to a point where the ship does not put itself or its crew into danger. But, the interpretation of that law has varied through time. For obvious reasons, earlier laws were much more gung-ho about saving ships in distress. In a world without computerized navigation, the danger of the sea required all ships to sacrifice a lot to save others, and to the expect the others to do the same. If the crew saw no physical signs of danger (ocean currents etc) the captain might demand a rescue. I think films need to explain this law more because it always seems unnatural when a cruise ship suddenly helps a ship in the arctic, so a bunch of rich people can be turned into zombies or something.
I know everyone heard it before, but the girl was such a terrible actor. Her performance kept taking me right out of the movie. Yeah, she was a hot thing at the time, but she was an awful actor. Shannon Elizabeth, that's her name. I actually did like the DVD features behind all the ghosts' backstories. The movie itself was ok I guess.
I recall hearing somewhere that Neil Gaiman was very hands on when the movie's creative team were first adapting the movie, wanting it to be fateful to his creation and to ensure they do it justice, as he does with most of his other works. However, after spending months on recording the audiobook for Stardust, he realized how long and daunting it would be to adapt Stardust into a 2-hour movie, so he decided to give his blessing to adapt it in whatever way they felt was best.
No, The mistake with using fruit bats was not "intentional" to be campy, nor was the terrible sub par makeup that he wore. At that time, they were capable of truly convincing prosthetics, but that makeup was as bad as the worst halloween mask.
because they take a lot of time to make and I've been focusing on completing my degree, but I'm currently working on 5 reviews that I'm hoping to get done and released before September, no promises but that's the plan.
When I saw this in cinema I had to leave due to vomiting as well as a a bad case of feeling vertiginous. I got a refund, but to this day I want to punch Mr. Wes in his Craven-Cock!
Constantine, and this Constantine, would re-appear in the Arrowverse a couple years later to help Oliver Queen take down Damien Darhk in season 4 and Arrow before becoming a regular in DC's Legends of Tomorrow. Although, while I believe it to be the same Constantine as this one, I don't believe it to be the same Earth as the one depicted in this show. There's a few key pieces of evidence to support my theory. Most of which I'm not gonna cover here due to major spoilers, but I'll do my best I can to defend my claim without going into them. Though, there is two key piece of evidence that is are SPOILERS for the Arrowverse's "Crisis On Infinite Earths" crossover, but I'll minimize their impacts by only divulging what is important for my theory. They'll be important once I get to the ultimate point of my theory. 1. There's a seasonal arc in DC's Legends of Tomorrow's season 4 involving Hell and its politics. Constantine ventures down into Hell himself for reasons having to do with the plot, at which point, he's taken to see Hell's Triumvirate. While I know that's more accurate to The Sandman (DC's Vertigo) comics -- although, Lucifer nor any of the other leaders from the comics are members of this Triumvirate -- which is something we never saw in Constantine's show. In fact, we're shown something completely different in "The Devil's Vinyl" episode where the Devil is so horrifically bad ass that even his voice that was accidentally recorded can cause wide spread calamity. That same Constantine episode even painstakingly shows how souls are collected and that they're done so to spite God; meanwhile, Legends of Tomorrow show, not only a much goofier method of collecting souls (that I'll admit did make me laugh), it shows that souls are a form of currency down there. Each soul forged into coins with Constantine's owned by a particular demon that I won't say due to spoilers, but I don't believe anyone had claimed his soul in Constantine's show. So the Hell in Constantine and the Hell in the Arrowverse are clearly not one in the same. 2. About half-way through the Crisis on Infinite Earths crossover event, Constantine is brought in to help out with something heavy that happened in the plot. A part of this involves traversing the multiverse, which Constantine claims to have a lot of experience with. This is made evident when Constantine and two others travel to Earth-666 -- yes, really -- to meet up with a particular Fallen Angel turned part-time police consultant and part-time LA night club owner named Lucifer Morningstar. The titular character from the supernatural crime dramedy, "Lucifer". The two are shown to have quite the history; Constantine and company showed up, because Lucifer owes Constantine a favor because of something Constantine helped him out with a long while back. This proves that not only can Constantine travel the multiverse using magic, but each Earth/universe has its own version of Hell, too. (The show, "Lucifer", shows its Hell quite extensively and it's nothing like how either the Hells in Constantine or the Arrowverse works. (Though, the entire multiverse may share the same Purgatory? I'm not sure about that one, but I know if I didn't bring it up, someone else would have. lol) 3. Almost immediately after the Lucifer Morningstar (Tom Ellis) cameo, they come across Jim Corrigan AKA The Spectre. Though, this is not played by the same actor from "Constantine", the show, which was Emmett J. Scanlan. A detail that Constantine, the Dark Arts Petty Dabbler, is quick to point out by saying, "Not *my* Jim Corrigan. This proves that not only was this not just a simple recast of the character, but that this is also the exact same John Constantine from his self-titled show, and not just, say, his Arrowverse doppelganger. A concept not unprecedented in the Arrowverse since it seemed like that all the mapped 53 Earths possessed counterparts for every character in the Arrowverse (e.g., The Council of Wells). Which leads me to my ultimate theory: I believe that Constantine had failed to stop The Brujeria on his Earth, with everyone on his world dying or had at least fallen far beyond saving. Constantine then pulled a "Rick & Morty" traveling the multiverse for a while before assuming the life of his doppelganger. Not sure what happened to the Arrowverse's Constantine since it's unlikely he died since that Constantine's soul was nowhere to be found in Hell. Plus, you know they'd be asking questions why there were suddenly two of them. That brings up another point where we see absolutely none of his friends and former allies in this world, either. From a meta perspective, I'm sure it was just a casting and/or writing issue, but if my Multiversal Mage theory is correct, then that would explain a lot. I mean, we don't even see our favorite angel make an appearance. (Yes, I know about Constantine's first and final season finale cliffhanger, but bear with me.) This isn't beyond a Constantine to do, either: In the Injustice comics, that Earth's Constantine tricked both the Regime and the Insurgents, so he can escape that universe with his daughter. Since I'm fair, the only hiccup to my theory is that in an episode of Legends, since it was a time travel show (which is fitting considering Deusdeacon's funny comparisons to The Doctor), Constantine and the other Legends traveled back to 1960s London. John tracked down his dad at a pub, and he tried to kick him in the balls, so that he wouldn't be born and wouldn't kill his mother with his own birth. However, he was unable to due to the "killing your own grandfather" paradox by blinking out of existence from a brief moment every time he tried. While that does seem damning (no pun intended), I believe it's because without another Constantine whose life he can take over, he wouldn't have stayed in that Earth. While butterfly effects won't effect him before the point he entered that universe in his own timeline, anything ever since is fair game. Anyway, I know that was a LOOOOOT, but I've been holding onto this theory for a while and needed a place to share it. I'm sure no one will read this whole thing, but if you do, please let me know what you think. :)
I think they were working on a reincarnation and destiny idea rather than a genetic one, but I think this movie was just a complete wild card with not much actual logic behind it anyway.
If I had to guess for the Mad Max-type setting, it's prolly a nod to RE5, which took place in desert landscape. But even that can be bullshit because the reason for the environment in RE5 is because the setting took place in Africa. Here, it's just simply Mad Max.
The whole action figure commentary makes me laugh, because during the 80s and 90s, they were always marketing Rated R movies to kids as toy lines. The most notable ones I can recall were Robocop and Terminator. It's just hilarious to think about since you know they would never do that nowadays. lol It's just short as the old Flinstone's cigarette commercials. XD
When he told him to leave he had no choice but to abide by the rules of fulfilling a wish that couldn’t be twisted. If only the security guard wouldn’t have spoken after that he’d still been alive 😂😂
I find it funny (in a mocking kind of way) the way the djinn said "GRANTED!" at the end there. He sounded like a generic video game announcer in some generic fighting game, because the movie was too low budget to get the license for a real one. lol
Ironically there is an upside down cross 😂😂😂 the the demon leader guy (don't care enough to remember names lmfao) was taking his tea canister out there is a cross attached to it but because it's a chain that dangles it'll always be upside down 😂😂😂
