quote:It really isn’t that weird that someone spent $105 million on a “Power Rangers” movie in 2017. What’s weird is that someone spent $105 million on a “Power Rangers” movie in 2017, and then decided that it should open with a gag about a teenage boy inadvertently masturbating a bull. quote:And it’s not for children, whose parents might let them watch the TV show on Saturday mornings, but may not understand why they’re supposed to laugh during the pre-credits scene in which a high school prank goes awry after a juvenile delinquent admits to mistaking a bull for a cow and yanking its dick until some “milk” came out. quote:It’s hard to remember exactly how John Gatin’s screenplay pads out the rest of the film’s 124-minute running time, but there are a ton of training montages, Rita murders a homeless guy for no particular reason, and at one point the Power Rangers are almost undone by a sexting scandal. quote:Power Rangers has one of the most zig-zagged tones of any big budget studio film I’ve seen in a long time. It’s jarring at times how often it goes back and forth between “gritty” and “silly.” Here’s an example: There’s a scene in which Kimberly Hart (Naomi Scott), a.k.a. “the Pink Ranger,” admits that she distributed revenge porn to humiliate a classmate, and now she feels she’s an awful person. Kimberly even goes on to describe in detail how she was forced to sit in a room with the victim’s father and watch this man look at this explicit photo of his own daughter. Not long after this, there’s campy dialogue about “stopping Rita Repulsa from getting to the Krispy Kreme.” power rangers is a super hero film will rlm, do you think rlm will review it

Power Rangers is another one where the director has one small film under their belt before they are given a huge franchise to gently caress up. The only group of people more retarded than modern film directors are entertainment executives.

IMDb: "In an early draft by Max Landis, the writer switched the colors of both Kimberly and Zack, making Zack the Pink Ranger and Kimberly the Black Ranger. This concept was quickly scrapped."

It looks like the film won't make its budget back though box office, but I wonder if the film mostly exists to move toys and that's how they intended to turn a profit in the first place.

Dmitri-9 posted:Power Rangers is another one where the director has one small film under their belt before they are given a huge franchise to gently caress up. The only group of people more retarded than modern film directors are entertainment executives. I think its because its assumed that they've shown the bare minimum amount of movie making know how to just tell the drat actors when to pick their noses while the labyrinthine studio apparatus creates the stuff like super saturated visual effects and interchangeable scripts perfectly targeted to reach the maximum possible audience that the director has no involvement in. Then, since they've had no experience working on a project of this scale, its assumed the director will be quickly taken aback by the display of money and complexity taking place before them and immediately cow to any studio suggestions put forward to make sure that they can secure that McDonald's happy meal deal, or clearly crowbarred in elements to create more potential for toys, or clunky setups for the next 14 movies in the franchise, or one incredibly awkward scene that will play well in China. Obviously this sometimes doesn't work at all and everything goes off the rails, as Josh Trank will tell you.

I think another issue too is that big name respectable directors don't want to touch a superhero movie. It's a thing I've mentioned before, but comic book/superhero/live-action adaptation/etc. sort of level of pop culture media can really doom a director/actor and derail their careers if it fails. Meanwhile, a success can lead to either typecasting or getting enough popularity to call your own shots for future films. Not to say that hasn't been changing now that they've become so big and popular in the last 5 years. In the realm of most Marvel stuff, for example, and even the Power Rangers, you can look at most of the Phase 1 stuff and this and go, "Okay, THIS is why this person was hired. This guy has done a popular low-budget sci-fi film with young leads, this one has done a stylistic Hamlet, this one has done period piece genre stuff, this guy did like 10 years of a comic book-styled ensemble TV show with a huge following, etc." DC/WB on the other hand seems to be going after people who have become seen as more acclaimed or are award-winning directors, with sort of mixed results.

Finally saw Resident Evil: Final Chapter. Pretty drat fun. It doesn't gently caress around and it knows it's shlock. It has enough of a plot to hum along with enough there to have cool poo poo happen. Ending was stupid though with another sequel hook. I hope RLM watches this at some point considering how good the response was.

quote:(That’s another thing: The most important location in this movie is a Krispy Kreme. And this isn’t a situation where it had to be a business, so why not just use a real company and make some money off of it in the process. The huge MacGuffin in the movie is at a Krispy Kreme. There’s even a scene in which Rita Replusa stops to eat a Krispy Kreme donut and we, as the audience, just watch her eat it. Corporate product placement doesn’t bother me that much, but at least try to incorporate it into the story.) everyone wants my dunkacino can't get enough of my dunkacino

i just looked up the wikipedia for that new power rangers movie and the plot sounds dumb as poo poo and specifically mentions the krispy kreme as playing a key role in the story, but the funniest part was this: quote:Dacre Montgomery as Jason Scott / Red Ranger, the leader of the Power Rangers.[5] so you got the guy and the girl who want to gently caress, then the queer ... and then the autistic and ... the bilingual one?

they took the smart one who was just learning martial arts in the show and made him the autistic one lol "alpha, get me some teens with attitude. make sure two are straight and into each other, one is gay, make sure one has autism...uh, and get me one that speaks two languages." the green ranger better have both male and female genitalia

Yeah, it says "queer" which means she usually dates men but one time fell in love with a girl. Mostly they just did hand stuff.
