Terminator Genisys lost me when they glossed over Kyle’s important questions of who sent Pops back. Planned sequels or not they should have clearly answered that important story defining question.
That along with "You're just going to have to trust me," and, "I did it to protect you." Ugh...retire those already as about every lame TV show uses them about twice an episode.
I didn’t think the killers for Scream 6 were THAT obvious considering the film itself explained how someone would be able to obtain all the evidence from the police to create the shrine. They literally said it’s possible for officers to get bribed. It would’ve made more sense if yall spoke about the deli scene - that scene alone showed the killer is clearly familiar with stealth, dodging, disarming and using a shotgun. The audience would assume It’s Officer Baily, but we also had Kirby in the film, an experienced FBI agent.
The really sad thing about MODOK in Quantumania is that him wearing his mask actually made him more intimating and at least look more like how he looks in the comics. The moment he takes it off, now that makes him look too goofy even by Marvel standard.
Locusts makes the most sense as an actual threat, the dinosaurs would never be an actual threat on a global scale. Hell, a group of normal redneck hunters could wipe them out in a week. The locusts are more in line with what Michael Crichton was getting at in his first book.
What was lost on me in the Jurassic Park Domination was why sort of government would not have rounded up or a least killed any dinosaurs they found in their country?! It’s just absurd to think they somehow escape long term to bred successfully… maybe the aquatic ones make sense but that’s about it!
@@mikespike2099The Dinosaurs (at least the ones who had 2 of each sex) most likely bred and spread too fast for the government to contain and or control/kill most of them.
I enjoyed Don't Worry Darling. With all of the problems and backlash I was expecting a total car crash of a movie, but I thought it was stylish and enjoyable.
The average writer for a superhero movie really seems to have some built in hatred for the concept. Even if they're so called fans, they seem contractually obligated to shit on a character's name, costume, powers. This is something the Nolan Batman movies never did, and a reason why they're good at keeping you within the story. Not everything has to be self-deprecating or self-conscious.
as a biologist I really liked the book to "where the crawdads sing". its rare to have such a focus on what drives many of us nature freaks. but that end almost ruined everything
Alma being a murderous nurse doesn't seem like a bad twist, probably based off the real life serial killer nurse with over 60 victims and the trust love and respect of everyone around her who had no idea
I’d argue the introduction to Cassie in Antman 3 did it before MODOK. Sure he was silly but I did hear quiet a few groans of annoyance during her introduction
I liked the Shazam film, even if it wasn't great. I really enjoyed how it embraced the Greek mythology that makes up most of Captain Marvel's powers, and I loved seeing so many classic Greek monsters. As for my own problems both movies, I just don't think this Shazam is a good fit for the character. Honestly, I think the best Shazam movie is a Lego film, of all things. They really did the character justice.
Jurassic World: Dominion is a serious example of someone missing the point. You left the prior movie with dinosaurs getting free and spreading across the world via trafficking. The implication being that that they'll start to reproduce in the wild like they did in the original movie and will eventually become an issue unless the followup is a film about containing them or killing them. Instead of addressing the issue you introduced at the end of the previous film, you come up with a film where the actual focus is rescuing a kid and stopping a corporation's evil locust scheme while dinosaurs run around in the background. It's like we got a filler sidestory rather than the third part of a coherent trilogy.
Yeah! Cause I want to see in a Jurassic Park/World films: frigging locusts! Seriously, at least the original sequels Lost World and Jurassic Park 3 gave us cool dinosaurs and action scenes of them fighting which we would WANT to see.
Maybe it's because other horror franchises used a different person instead of the original killer, but I was OK with Corey helping Michael. The length of the time jump explains how weak Michael is and how Corey can take him
I'm sure i saw the NT Live: Allelujah play production in cinemas a few years ago and i completely forgot the twist ending when i saw the film adaptation 😂
Come one Whatculture, not saying it was a great reveal but no one saw those three coming in scream 6. It was not as obvious as you’re pretending it was
So which movie in the series are they just going to make everyone in the town the killer for scream and then the the girl becomes John Wick and has to kill everybody in town you know so that she can get out of town or it becomes the purge & she just has to narrowly escape from everybody in order to get out of town
Interesting difference in opinions; I saw Where The Crawdads Sing in theatres and I was going to right the movie off as trash UNTIL it was revealed Kya was the killer!
actually the Shazam sequel was lost on me by the first Shazam movie... and I didn't have an issue with Cross being MODOK, and not even as harsh on the cgi, but the comedy of MODOK didn't really work for me.
Michael Myers being a cameo in his final was such a middle finger to the fans. Jurassic World bringing back the og trio just to be there for locusts to the point they were just pointless in the movie is unforgivable. The nail in the coffin tho was Owen thinking he was some sort of Jedi who can stop any dino like WTF!
The sidelining of Grant, Satler and Malcolm definitely was disappointing and a missed opportunity. Could’ve gotten more interesting interactions with them and Grady and Claire, even having Grady and Grant having a debate regarding their own views on velociraptors. Basically the clashing ideologies between the paleontologist and the raptor trainer. So much you could do with it if given more time, but sadly isn’t taken advantage of.
@3:16 you can see a real velociraptor (at least size-wise). No feathers though. They were essentially large, bitey turkeys. You can also see Chris Pratt's real hips and belly.
Atleast nr 10 had the decency to do that at the end of the movie and not at the start of the next. Or possibly worse, a stinger in a semi-unrelated movie... Nr 5 is just a movie about silly people in silly costumes and has a lot of fun with it (the skateboarding fits right in with that). While still maintaining some respect for the source material and having a decent enough plot. I also quite liked Nr 2. Remembering the youtube video I saw yesterday, about prior video game experiences affecting how we experience later games, I feel like I am not allowing past Super Hero movies to spoil my enjoyment of more recent films, compared to what seems to be the discourse online.
LOL you think it was the Wonderwoman moment that lost us??? The skittles product placement (that wasn't even asked for by skittles, even admitted to by the director!) was truly a tipping point for most! Insipidly bad!
@@jimbo9208 it was obvious cause come on detective Bailey is a cop and as Kirby said anyone who is a cop or a fbi will have access to the shrine and Ethan just left after the incident with mindy in the subway hell we didn’t even see Quinns body up close cause usually when ghostface kills someone we see the aftermath after
I couldn't get behind the 3rd halloween. The first of that trilogy was so promising. The second had a lot of issues, but that third one was a miss on all fronts. Except for the final final scene. that was cool.
The ruination of MODOK was unforgivable. If you cannot take a character seriously, don't use them. There was nothing about the character, who was created as an antagonist to Captain America, that made him a good fit for this movie. Handled correctly, MODOK is intended to be terrifying. When a long established character is used primarily as a slap in the face to the fan base of the source material, it's probably time for the MCU to shuffle off into the sunset.
I enjoyed it, but there was WAY too much plot armor for some of the characters. Doesn't hold a candle to the original either. You'd have to make something completely unique and original, twist wise, like the original Scream did.
This movie had several things right for the first half, but the last part was completely stupid, and forced, to the point of being insulting to the audience's intelligence. The "brilliant" killers lost all their brains when they removed their masks and the forced new main characters became invincible with thick plot armor, what a surprise. They shouldn't have messed with Craven's creation after his passing.
Dont spoil the movies in the headlines! Just say what movie it is about so we can fast forward through that entry if we havent seen it. How hard can it be?
@@TalkingHands308 when I see "lose" I don't think it means how much money, but when you kind of just stop caring much about the film. But yes, I am probably in the minority. \
@@Sckipt I am talking about "lose" in the same way. If it indeed "lost" a lot of people, in that a lot of people stopped caring about the film, it wouldn't have made so much money. A lot of it was from repeat viewings by a lot of people.
@@TalkingHands308 The problem with Avatar is its one of those movies that you watch for the visuals, not for the story. The visuals are so good you generally miss that the plot is... not good. Same with the first movie, though that at least had less repeated kid capture. Plus there is no way to really recreate the theatrical experience for it without dropping thousands for a good home theater setup.
I was so disappointed by the last Halloween. Michael deserves better than that. The franchise deserved better. Making Michael so weak was just disrespectful to him. I mean, the whole film was screwed up with that fool guy. The only thing good about Magic Mike was the dancing. Scream VI was great
@@jimbo9208 when i saw the movie i was like a detective 😂and the rule is if u don’t see em dead they still alive even if i was a little surprised that they took that route with Quinn but u can foresee it. Specially when scream 5 followed scream 1. I wouldn’t be surprised if in scream 7 tara or sam turn out to be the killer or their mother to follow scream 3 reveal. But let’s not lie scream 6 is one of the best movies to come out this year.
Scream VI was dire. Cliche after cliche. And look at the one member of the friend group to die and tell me that doesn't tell you all you need to know about the film
I feel asleep during Shazam 2, that movie dragged and that second arc was not good. With that being said, Halloween Ends is definitely the worst movie of this list. Sucks too because first of the new trilogy is my favorite of the franchise. I guess the movie did right in making you hate Corey though 🚮😂
@@jimbo9208 Not at all. The plot runs primarily on Janet repeatedly refusing to talk about a major threat she knows about, even when directly asked. You'd hafta ignore Wandavision, Loki, Ms. Marvel, No Way Home, Werewolf by Night and Moon Knight for that to be true.
Definitely not better than Spider-Man No Way Home and Shang Chi The Legend Of The Ten Rings as well as most of Doctor Strange And The Multi-Verse Of Madness imo.
The kid sub plot in Black Adam was just awful…. It took away all stakes and sense of danger. And knowing that the film was PG-13 and not directed by James Gunn, the audience sadly knew that the little fucker was surviving…
The Rock makes a movie about a bad guy, who turns good cuz of a kid and we all hate it, but when Arnold did it, Terminator 2, we all lost our shit and loved it..me too...lol...I love watching the Rock desperately try to recreate Arnolds Hollywood career and failing...LOL
I don't think that's what he was going for, plus The T-800 in Terminator 2 was reprogrammed by The Resistance/Future War Adult John Connor, so it was pretty much a good guy from the start.
They lost me after Endgame. Everything after that was absolute garbage. Identify politics has infiltrated Star Wars, LotR, Bond and Star Trek…. It’s a shame lifelong brand can’t have nice things.
