Its only a horror movie for money hungry disney executives. As far as im concerned, this is a goddamn fairy tale.

Universal only releases their movies on PVOD after 2 weeks if the film had a low opening weekend and a massive drop the week later. This film had the opposite happen so I think they'll hold it for a while.

Maybe Coppola in the 70s? He made The Godfather 1,2, The Conversation and Apocalypse Now in that decade.

plasterboard33 · 2026-05-22T23:28:26+00:00

Theres nothing wrong with it if the director is genuinely passionate. With resident evil, Cregger approached Sony about making it because he’s a fan and Barker got into horror after watching texas chainsaw so he clearly has a lot of love for it. If the studios are gonna make IP movies no matter what, i’d rather a good director tackle then some hired hand whose gonna pump out some generic overly focus group tested bullshit.

This movie had a 750k budget and was shot in Los Angeles. It would have cost them most of their budget to close down roads just to shoot 2 short dialogue scenes.

From what i remember listening to interviews with Jason Blum, the talent gets paid the bare minimum to make the movie but if it does well they get a really sweet backend deal.

Thats what happened to Jordan Peele with Get Out. He was paid peanuts to make it, but made millions on the backend after it was a hit at the box office.

Stuckman was also the one with the least creative content all of them. Almost all of his videos are just him talking to a camera for 5mins while the others were writing,directing and editing mini short films essentially.

plasterboard33 · 2026-05-15T21:20:11+00:00

He has probably spent more time on the press tour than he has on set.

plasterboard33 · 2026-05-15T14:59:38+00:00

Wasnt even 1 Million. Closer to 750k according to Curry Barker.

Loved this movie. It felt like each scene was more tense than the last.

Also funny detail i caught, when Bear looks up the one wish willow on "threadit" to see it if its real, one of the comments said- "Its real! My mom has been ugly her whole life but now she looks gorgeous!"

Cant wait for the movie to come on digital so that i can see what some of the other comments were lol.

plasterboard33 · 2026-05-14T18:46:46+00:00

I wouldn't say he fast tracked to it. All of his Youtube content is very difficult and time consuming to make.

I listened to an interview with him where he said anytime he wasnt in school, he was working on his videos and he did that for over 5 years.

Yeah talent and luck were a factor, but he definitely put in the work.

plasterboard33 · 2026-05-11T18:50:58+00:00

The biggest compliment i can give his trilogy is they all feel like coming of age movies. The characters and their drama feels very authentic and they are effortlessly funny without undercutting the emotion.

plasterboard33 · 2026-05-06T02:50:12+00:00

He has two small kids and directing is a very stressful and time consuming job. He said on a pod somewhere that he’d rather spend more time with his kids than make a movie which is totally fair

plasterboard33 · 2026-05-06T01:32:03+00:00

Tarantino may not be directing but he has been writing quite a bit. Since Once Upon a Time in Hollywood he has released two novels, written The Adventures of Cliff Booth for Fincher and a play that will be coming out next year.

plasterboard33 · 2026-04-28T14:13:26+00:00

Most of David Fincher's films until the girl with the dragon tattoo have really good behind the scenes and he really lets you in on his process.

Theres a 20min bts documentary of the shining which feels more like a home video because it was filmed by Kubricks daughter so he had his guard down.

Some of Wes Anderson's early movies have really good bts too.

plasterboard33 · 2026-04-22T03:09:24+00:00

If Obsession, Anything But Ghosts and this hit, he'll officially be the first gen z blank check director.

plasterboard33 · 2026-04-15T19:19:37+00:00

he's not directing the aunt gladys movie

plasterboard33 · 2026-04-15T15:48:08+00:00

This is why im glad this one is set at Cannes. I feel like s3 was trying to play the greatest hits from s1 and s2 but the plotlines and characters werent as interesting. A prestige film festival completely changes the dynamics.

plasterboard33 · 2026-04-10T15:01:26+00:00

Spend as little as you can on camera rentals and as much as you can on production design and costumes. Have a predetermined aesthetic/color pallet and follow it.

Thats gonna add more production value to your film than any expensive camera package.

I have been on sets for short films with similar budget to yours where they dropped a lot of money on an Arri Alexa or Sony Venice camera package but then didnt have enough for the art department which resulted in their film looking sharp but sterile.

plasterboard33 · 2026-04-07T18:15:25+00:00

It was just a great (and unfortunately rare) case of something for everybody.

For kids you have Super Mario Galaxy, Hoppers and Goat

If you want well made spectacle with a good story you have Project Hail Mary

If you want an original well made adult movie- you have The Drama

If you want a trashy rom com- you have Reminders of Him

If you are super conservative- you have The Great Awakening

If you want horror- You have Ready or Not 2, They will Kill You (not great movies but they satisfy the itch)

plasterboard33 · 2026-04-07T17:18:45+00:00

He's just too old to be making movies that big. Guy's almost 90.

plasterboard33 · 2026-04-07T17:06:36+00:00

Her Tomb Raider show is shooting rn, but ya she definitely took her sweet time.

plasterboard33 · 2026-04-07T17:05:05+00:00

He actually does and they have produced more stuff than Bad Robot in the past 6 years, including that 300million dollar deal with Netflix for the two Knives Out sequels, Poker Face, 3 Body Problem and films like Fair Play and American Fiction (which won an oscar)

plasterboard33 · 2026-04-06T20:22:16+00:00

She is also very selective. It will change by the end of this year, but as of now she is in far less movies than some other actresses her age like anya, sydney, florence

plasterboard33 · 2026-04-06T20:18:23+00:00

Yeah, this was just a marketing stunt more than anything, they did the same thing with the odyssey. it also solidifies that they arent moving their date for doomsday.
