he specifically no longer takes those roles because he's sick of the memes, it's honestly funny that the internet cyberbullied an actor into rejecting certain roles due to meme status

Maybe now we can get him to settle on a pronunciation for his names. Seen Bean or Shawn Bawn, pick one.

There’s two evergreen movie rules out there now:

1. Sean Bean never dies
2. iPhone users are good and android users could be bad (due to a licensing agreement).

O gently caress yes. Powerfully my poo poo.

The imdb trivia page says that they’re speaking a constructed language called “Tola” based off of Basque. I don’t know if I buy that because it didn’t seem ergative and that’s Basque’s whole thing. However, leaving the imdb trivia aside, the quality of the conlang seems pretty dang good from the sample size of a trailer.

Muchly excited.

Proto-European languages are otherwise largely lost outside of Basque so they probably just took some words from it and said it's based on it

Basque isn’t Proto-European because that isn’t a thing. Basque is a linguistic isolate, i.e. we can not confidently say whether or not it’s related to any other living languages. I think you’re half-remembering Proto-Indo-European, the ancestor of modern languages like English, German, French, Greek, Farsi, Albanian, etc. etc, i.e. the Indo-European languages. Basque is smack in the middle of a bunch of those and aggressively unrelated to anything even vaguely nearby so it’s a giant mystery. Juliet Blevins has some interesting arguments that might link Basque with Aquitanian, but that’s still highly speculative.

Years back when I was taking a History of Language class and we were going over how so much came from Proto-Indo-European, mentioning Basque would make my professor's eye twitch.

but, uh... well, there it is

I think the killer should wear a great big novelty cowboy hat. It would keep getting knocked off his head when he tried to go through doorways or under low branches but if the movie is from the killer's POV it would just add to the tension. Can he stop and pick up the big hat before his victim gets away? What if one of the teens steals the hat? Lots of potential here.

Didn't you see the 2009 movie? He's new jersey's best weed farmer. The reason there haven't been any more movies is Jersey has since legalized it, so he went legit and no longer has to guard his stash by killing teens.

Really enjoying Silent Night Deadly Night. It's got a hot Santa who has nightmares about being stabbed in the butt and a random lady whose main character note is that she really loves her awful awful Christmas hat.

Okay I finished this now and it owned. Forty year old bully getting into a half assed punch up with a teenager boy and stealing his sled owned. Santa daddy? Owned. The scene with the little girl? I was cackling with laughter.

Final line was perfect. You cannot convince me they didn't know this wasn't not a comedy.

This? Doesn't own. Why in the goddamn would you base your remake of a hilarious horror film around real world murders?

Also four years between the killings and the film? Wtf.

It was the weirdest poo poo ever when the film came out and no one was appalled by it. No reviews mentioned it, no one asked about it in interviews. Utter madness.

Reminds me of when the x-Files would incorporate thinly disguised versions of fresh real world tragedies like twa 800 or Oklahoma City into their conspiracy plots. I was a kid and didn't notice at the time, but going back that is absolutely wild.

I feel like there's a bit of a difference between "this is somewhat based on TWA flight 800" and "this movie is, at times, a recreation of a horrific mass murder, right down to the killing of children"

I find that that's the limit on what you can do with horror. Once you start trying to ape mass murders you're little more than a grimy sleazebag exploiting a tragedy.
