Natural disaster +huge heist is such a great theme that hasn't been hashed out past it's due in the 90s. My favorite is the pure cinematic mediocrity known as 'hard rain'

Looks fun but I hate it when media depicts hurricanes visually as tornadoes.

'Entertainment Studios' is a great name for a production company making complete schlock

Accretionist posted:There's no way you could've known they were Swedish from the trailer The first ten seconds have the murdered chap want to go hiking in Sweden. It doesn't seem to be that big a leap, when next we see all his companions hiking, that they are in fact, in Sweden. If that is too much of a spoiler for folks, one has to wonder what they are doing here... in the trailers thread.

Who knows what simple fact goes over our heads and needs to be explained. As to what happens in the forest, I kind of assumed it was pagan Swedish cultists. Maybe a supernatural element, though that seems less likely. Less The Descent and more Southern Comfort. Looks like a good flick, and I'll be glad to watch it. I'm scratching my head as to the nature of the spoiler. As far as I can see, Fartbox's comment basically just reiterates the premise of the trailer.

Krankenstyle posted:dont talk about what happens in the forest!! People, possibly all of them, die in the forest, possibly at the hands of something supernatural or just weird. It's all a metaphor for guilt. Did they delay this movie any? It's been a while since the first trailer, and I assumed it was because the marketing tag line was "They should have gone to Vegas" around the same time as the Vegas shooting.

Yeah I remember that. The first trailer came out several months ago, and it did have that "Vegas"-catchphrase.

I remember seeing a trailer a while ago, but I assumed it was because it was showing at a festival and hadn't been picked up yet. I'm glad Netflix grabbed it.

"Buhhh, I figured it was either a super broad option A or super specific option B!" Okay, cool, and both are also invitations to shut the gently caress up.

It's a weird reaction to speculation (?) over trailer content in the trailer thread.

To rerail, here is a trailer for a series based on a Dan Simmons book that isn't Hyperion but was still before he went crazy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rnN7Aad3c7A I have no idea how they're making an anthology series out of this, but fuckin' A look at that cast. They don't show what's hunting them, but I'll spare you the trip to Wiki and tell you that it's Swedish pagan cultists. Oh and also this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rwdojcKHAFA I guess fishmen are back in vogue? Dark Universe, now is your time to tap that cultural zeitgeist and release a terrible Creature from the Black Lagoon movie.

Alternatively: If spoiling a plot point ruins a story, it wasn't a very good story to begin with and you'd be wasting your time watching/reading/listening to it. Stop being a child or don't go into the trailers thread where people continuously post trailers to movies, some of which contain spoilers. Sometimes people even discuss the trailers. edit: gently caress I forgot to put what the trailers thread is about in spoiler tags

I was just speculating on it being cultists or pagans or whatever, I don't know the answer. Surely speculation isn't considered "spoilers" nowadays But there were like, symbols and carvings and statues and poo poo and the movie is called "The Ritual" so it sounds like there are people hunting them and not Shadow Monsters or whatever

Ciaran Hinds, Tobias Menzies, and Jared Harris are three good actors that look like they're in starring roles in the movie? Like three good core actors is often more than what most movies can gather up, let alone a TV series.
