A) don’t blame audiences unless you have stronger proof
B) when you say international, does that mean the two movies have been released in the same number of theaters and countries?
Maybe the lack of promotion was because they knew it sucked. It’s not like there’s good word of mouth about this movie.
How do you give it such a near perfect rating while having 2 issues with it?
Bump
You are reading way too much into this
I think this film tried to appear like a sophisticated art film but I don’t think esteemed film critics of any era would praise it.
Filmstock and development are both cheaper for cinefilm.
Interesting point.
I don’t know who this is supposed to appeal to. Younger demographic doesn’t know the original TV show, probably doesn’t care about the 90s movie.
It’s another example of studios being afraid to just make something new. In this case an action movie with 3 female leads. They’re milking the brand but changing it to something they think is modern. It’s possible it’ll be good, but unlikely
“ by not thinking too hard about it...”

What a stupid statement
Lol non American like me. Says it all
Lol “got it”. You’re intentionally oversimplifying it. Corporate control hasn’t always been the same. Hammer movies relied on low budget moviemaking so even a modest box office performance would yield a profit. Theres always been the bottom line but at least there was some awareness of trying to do something different. The stakes are much different now. Huge budgets increase likelihood of outside interference and mediocre product. Now they’re not even trying to make something new or interesting, even with huge budgets and access to any talent. They’re just making movies with lots of pretty colors and explosions.
Also, the people who didn’t like old monster movies etc still had other options at movie theaters. Now if you don’t like X Avengers Men United Revenge there’s not many options.
Even if you include Joker (debatable) that is clearly an exception to what Scorcese is referring to. And don’t think Marvel is that different from DC, they’re both junk
He’s spot on and someone has to stand up and speak out. Superhero movies are formulaic infantile garbage free of any artistic expression keeping studios from even trying to make quality movies made to last
Hammer and Marvel etc aren’t close to the same thing. There’s plenty of universally beloved escapist fiction. Recent EF is corporate garbage
So edgy. Why do you hate it so much?
What is posey direction?
Yeah it’s hard to put my finger on it but this seems potentially more messed up for young minds. Slasher movies have lots of blood but aren’t psychologically messed up somehow
Kids can get in with parents or a guardian
Nothing suggests it
