I thought everybody already knew this? The movie is Kingsmen with the numbers filed off. The production design is Kingsmen down to the smallest detail.

I honestly didn't know that but then again, I didn't know poo poo about the movie. I thought the production design similarities were there because Matthew Vaughn is a hack high on his own farts. People might have made an educated guess, but I don't think it was ever marketed as part of the Kingsman poo poo, nothing in the movie hints at it until the post credits scene.

You can tell the filmmakers knew that Argylle had the stench of failure all over it, because some conspiracy theories started cropping up online about how the person who wrote the (currently still unpublished) book that the movie is based on, is actually Taylor Swift writing under a pen name. They were so desperate to make that movie a blockbuster hit that they pretty obviously made up stories to try and leech off Swift's popularity and fame.

Didn't the first Kingsmen movie end with tens of thousands of the richest people in the world having their heads blown off because Eggsy decided to say gently caress it anyone who signed off on Sam L Jackson's plan deserved it? Asking that I've already put more thought into it than Matthew Vaughn. Guy directed one okay X-Men movie and was given free reign to create whatever dogshit he felt like after that with a nerd crew seal of approval.

That whole heads-exploding-to-Pomp-and-Circumstance scene is still the funniest thing I've ever seen in a movie. I was doubled over laughing.

Wasnt the entire conceit of the Kingsmen that everything they did wouldnt ever make the news? Heads exploding is kind of a thing that would be noticed.

Burns posted:Wasnt the entire conceit of the Kingsmen that everything they did wouldnt ever make the news? Heads exploding is kind of a thing that would be noticed. The plots of those movies are extremely loving stupid. IIRC, Samuel L Jackson manages to convince all the powerful people just by giving them an argument that sounds like a stoned college freshman came up with it that we need to Thanos snap half of humanity. Also the Kingsmen were founded by the tailor's guild because WWI killed all their heirs or something like that so all their wealth was going to nothing otherwise. But wouldn't that be true of everyone? Why isn't there a private spy agency founded by locksmiths or whatever PostNouveau fucked around with this message at 01:58 on Feb 4, 2024 |

Kinsmen was aggressively stupid and had a real mean side to it like the whole church fight. I hated the first one and didn’t watch anything else. I also hated kick rear end and decided this Vaughn guy his stuff just wasn’t for me.

X JAKK posted:Hot Tub Time Machine 2 might objectively be the worst sequel since it completely eliminates the nostalgia draw from the original for a steaming convuluted mess of a story with all the worst elements of the time travel concept that absolutely nobody wanted I've said this before about the movie, but it should have been a 90s nostalgia film and I think there's a point or two that hints that maybe that had been the original plan. I kind of wonder if funding was the reason we got the film we got with it. I seem to recall seeing the budget for HTTM2 was significantly less than the first film. With the budget being so low, they might have scrapped their original script either because they couldn't film it or to save the material for a reboot/sequel down the road with a larger budget.

Kingsman had it's moments. Like the Rasputin fight in which you couldn't totally stop watching the movie after and be fine.

LanceHunter posted:HOLY gently caress Y"ALL WE GOT CONTENT!!!! I’m a diehard Nerd Crew fan so I enjoyed this, Mike’s camera randomly coming on during the countdown had me laughing pretty hard and a few other bits were pretty good. But as always they give in to their worst creative instincts and just run some jokes into the ground.
