i felt like sci fi

i got atlas, holy shit don't make this mistake

ai bad mkay, also main character is fucking jlo, she wants to be ironman so they put her in a bad cgi exosuit from avatar and half the movie is a face closeup of her talking to bad ai jarvis

movie so bad, i was like how the hell does jlo still "act"

turns out most of her movies are cuz they are produced by her own company

I have some of the later cross over comics. I'd be into this for pure nostalgia.

Weren't the other Joe movies female centric? Like they had 100 GI Joe characters, but let's subvert expectations and focus on the few girl characters they had that nobody cared about.

the ones i briefly saw were females bouncing around owning everyone, but i wrote off this franchise long ago so maybe i misremembered how prominent they were.

I only remember the ones with Brendan Fraiser as a trainer + 9th Doctor Destro, and then Bruce Willis as retired General Joe. Did not bother with anything past that.

Ryan Reynolds Scrubs GIF



I didn't realize they were going to do a new trilogy or reboot the entire trilogy in the first place. None of those movies needed to be remade, and as much as I like Mike Flanagan's stuff, he ought to just be working on something new.

I guess he's the new hotness when it comes to horror. I thought his next big project was trying to get the Stephen King Dark Tower stuff off the ground as a multi-season series, but if they're going to pay him to make a stupid exorcist remake, that kind of throws a wrench in that whole deal.

I feel like horror movies in general don't really serve a purpose anymore. They used to be able to scare people or at least gross you out in comically horrific fashion. Such as the original Evil Dead first two films or the old Freddy, Michael and Jason films. You went to the movies, saw the stupid teenagers do stupid things and get fileted by the scary guy with the sharp weapons. Or the ghosts and monsters would creep around waiting til you were asleep and then start making noises under your bed. Fun times

These new movies try to recreate those old films, but they use digital blood and cgi monsters now with very bland plots. Do these new monsters even have a backstory anybody is interested in? I would also like to point out the lack of mystery anymore in movie trailers. They show the whole film in under 2 minutes. Show the monster, and a bunch of boo scares and then expect you to pay a stupid ticket price to be underwhelmed.

I used to love horror movies, but it's been downhill for the last 20 years.

I think you're conflating slasher movies with horror movies. I know slashers or within the genre, and maybe some of the original ones were scary when you were younger, but the really good horror nowadays tends to be the slow burn, atmospheric dread, not knowing exactly what's going to happen type stuff.

It's still out there, and typically done by a little indie films. It's not like I get scared watching most of it, but some of the things can be unnerving, and especially when you're not relying upon jump scares, but that slow anticipation that something is going to happen, you're just don't know what, that in and of itself is scary.

It's still out there, it's just not the same type of horror that we got used to growing up to as kids. Hell when you're a kid a lot of other things are scary.

I remember the first time I watched Alien, I was spending the night at a friend's house, and his dad took him, me, and his little brother to Blockbuster. We got to rent one movie and one video game. I think we ended up getting Jackal for the NES because you could play co-op, and we picked Alien for our movie. His dad didn't care, but that was the glory of the '80s.

We stayed up that night and their giant basement den with the lights off watching it, and I was probably the scariest movie I had ever seen at the time. Yeah there are a couple of jump scares, but they're well done, and not necessarily overused.

Is the film scary to me now, no, but it's still unsettling in certain scenes, appreciate the tone it tries to set in order to scare the audience.

Anyways I don't know if that makes a lot of sense, this is honestly a conversation I was having with a buddy not too long ago just talking about movies in general, and what's good out there. I just think there's some good indie horror that seems to be a hell of a lot better than any giant mainstream production, but I'm probably just biased, because I'd rather watch some film made for $2 million in Ireland vs a superhero movie.

i count the slasher films as horror because a Jason or especially a Freddy are not humans anymore but supernatural monsters/entities. probably the scariest movie i have ever seen was the original The Blob films. The Blob could not be stopped, it could be only slowed down. when i was a kid, that scene where the guy is getting his hair cut and the blob comes right out of the motherfucking drain and cover his head has stayed with me my whole life.
