They're remaking The Magnificent Seven as well. A remake of a movie that was a remake of a movie that was an attempt to make a Japanese version of Hollywood Western movies. Watching a modern Hollywood film now is often like trying to read a copy of Watchmen that someone with IBS has used as toilet paper: you kinda can see there was once something good there, but it's now too covered in poo poo to be entertaining.

Pawn 17 posted:Last I read opening was on track for $50M and the movie cost over $150M to make. That's a $50M opening, which is just the first weekend. People are still hedging their bets on whether it'll beat the animated film The Life Of Pets which had a huge opening last week and is still going strong.

Snowglobe of Doom posted:That's a $50M opening, which is just the first weekend. It's running next to a stronger film and next couple weeks have big films coming out (much like every film ever). It looks like the first projections of it hitting 130 million were dead on. Which means a bunch of passive agressive articles about how this is proof America is bad, and not all the dead black people.

They can't, which is really weird why they bothered remaking GB now that China is so important.

And next week is star trek beyond which also looks like it'll suck. But you know, a lovely star trek movie really makes it more like the rest of the star trek movies so

Freddie Got Fingered is way overdue for a revisit. No one is expecting it. And gently caress the chinese market. No one should be tailoring anything to sell to an dystopian autocracy that is just as superstitious as it is oppressive and evil. I wish i could start a production company out of Taiwan or Japan called gently caress You Nongs, every film would be about kaiju destroying mainland china and using the Mao's tomb as a toilet.

JediTalentAgent posted:I don't know if we really have any old 80s/90s/00s properties that can be rebooted out of nostalgia anymore. The stuff we remade from the 50s-80s seemed to have that bit where they had years of becoming cult and pop culture icons, but with the 80s-onward stuff, the really popular things never felt like they hit that same sweet spot of partially forgotten/partially remembered. Studio execs will soon start developing movies based on the only untapped source of nostalgia left- television commercials. Coming soon in 2017: -The Passion of the Encyclopedia Britannica Kid -The Sears Air Conditioner (think the notebook meets titanic) -Kids sitting around acting like smart adults talking about muppet babies books -The "Have you played Atari Today" jingle on a 2 hour loop

Armond White is not impressed http://www.nationalreview.com/article/437888/ghostbusters-cafe-society-thats-not-who-we-are Armond White posted:That’s not who we are,” a familiar presidential entreaty, came to mind after watching Woody Allen’s Café Society and the new Ghostbusters. Each film offers a comical view of American types, but enjoyment may depend on whether one feels the characters are credible. They aren’t. The Jewish-Americans of Café Society recall Allen’s boilerplate self-deprecation, while Ghostbusters has been rebooted, mostly with Saturday Night Live performers as urban caricatures. The gimmick in each film is to appease the current diversity craze. Uncle Wemus fucked around with this message at 05:08 on Jul 16, 2016 |
