I will cop to being into RHPS in high school but back then it was really my first window into anything remotely transgressive and exposed me to the wonders of aggressively trampy theatre chicks, so I have no regrets.

Iirc yes Uncle Wemus posted:boy if even rocky horror is deemed problematic... welcome to the wacky world of tumblr activism, we got an attic filled with problems and we keep making more! (basically anything that a normal person can enjoy has to be redefined as problematic so that they can continue to be hated and shunned. Rocky Horror is too mainstream, it's on cable all the time and the internet loves Tim Curry. Bad, wrong! It's problematic for a straight cis white man to portray a trans gay character! But it was cool when it was the thing that queer people went to midnight showings and got crazy at.)

Groovelord Neato posted:when they remake jaws there will be riots in the streets. It looks like the rights are still with Amblin (now called Amblin Partners, an amalgamation of Amblin, Dreamworks and Participant Media and part of the Universal group) and Spielberg said in an interview last year that he'll never remake any of his Amblin films. If anyone wants to remake Jaws they'd have a hell of a legal battle on their hands. http://www.avclub.com/article/steven-spielberg-will-never-remake-jaws-might-rema-229953 Not that we need another shark film, what with films like The Shallows and SyFy's Sharknado quatrology and the Sharktopus trilogy etc flooding the market.

Laverne Cox looks like she's having so much fun in that RHPS trailer. Never saw the original and have no interest in the remake though.

hollywood is so averse to any sort of risk that they let a remake of RHPS be a network tv movie

Y-Hat posted:jump scares make me more pissed off than scared Jump scares are such a cheap loving trick. The best jump scares are the ones with none of that wack soundtrack crescendo that is common now; like Leatherface opening that door in the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and nailing that dude on his head with a sledgehammer, out of nowhere.

Blair Witch is actually a sequel though. Bloody Disgusting loved it. Which doesn't mean anything but at least it's something. Could be worse like that new Batman comic movie which adds a 30 minute prologue to it where Batgirl fucks Batman on a rooftop. To you know, add DEPTH to when Joker cripples her and then takes pictures of her undressed and crippled. Vvvv because it's so mindbogglingly RETARDED it alone ruins the entire goddamned thing. Which already has issues to begin with. I mean I love the novel IT but there is one scene towards the end, like 5-6 pages that nearly destroys a 1000 page book. (Drugs are bad kids!).

Actually, the loving only takes like half a minute or so. The rest is character development Its weird to see people zero in on a minuscule portion of a movie like that.

Uncle Wemus posted:lol gb2016 finished 5th yesterday It's actually in a three way tie for third between Ice Age (which flopped) and Lights Out (which has had little to no marketing outside of generally positive reviews.) Star Trek is also having the lowest opening of the three in the series. It's been a rough year for theaters. What's the next bomb in the pipeline, anyway?

“There’s going to be an implosion where three or four or maybe even half a dozen of these mega-budgeted movies are going to go crashing into the ground, and that’s going to change the paradigm again.” -steven spielberg, 2013, via this article now might be the time that he predicted, but i just can't see the paradigm shift happening

Maybe not a total paradigm shift but likely even more reboots/sequels. With movies costing more every year sticking with an existing IP guarantees an existing fan base. I'm fascinated with how many Chinese film production companies are popping up in this summer's films. Star Trek, the latest Independence Day, and I believe the latest TMNT movie has Chinese backers. It's going to be fun seeing their influence on our entertainment the next couple years.
