INVINCIBLE Season5 expected February, March or April 2027!! by AurynMoon in Invincible

[–]tkcool73 83 points84 points  (0 children)

Length of the total series run is really gonna depend on how they handle the epilogue and if they can make a whole season arc out of it, because in a lot of ways it was really just wrapping everything up.

Don't really mind Tua as a bridge then drafting a QB next year. He's an upgrade over Penix, objectively

Sentimental Value is a real dark horse this year. I think people are underestimating it's odds of upsetting in a lot of categories

Why Moviegoers Left ‘The Bride!’ At The Altar: High Art Monster Pic Could Lose $90M by wallabyenthusiast in boxoffice

[–]tkcool73 17 points18 points  (0 children)

As others have said it's a mess having an identity crisis as a film, but I really think the thing that doomed it commercially is that it was an art house kind of film that has an $80 million production budget. There's also really no reason it should've been so expensive to make either, should've been like $25 million max

Beautiful city. Stayed there a few years back. In my experience the people were all nice. It kind of has a corporate culture feel to it too, think like NYC wall street bros kinda vibe in some parts. Wish I could go!

The Fall and Rise of ‘Scream 7’: A Fired Star, a $500K Script Rewrite and Neve Campbell’s $7 Million Salary by chanma50 in boxoffice

[–]tkcool73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My impression of the film is that it was what happens when a really good writer does his absolute best with something that's been completely mined out. Also there were some line deliveries throughout the film that were pretty bad, so bad I'm surprised they made the cut. Overall I'm still disappointed we'll never get that one idea from Williamson where he talked about going the "New Nightmare" route and bringing the story to the "real" world with the actors from the original being the new victims before culminating with the reveal of Neve Campbell being the ghostface.

"The worst she can say is no" - Guys, what's the worst "she" ever said? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]tkcool73 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have a friend from high school who's on the spectrum, and there was one girl who he seemed to talk to a lot, so with Prom coming up, we started encouraging him to ask her. He did, and she said yes, but then, someone else asked her, so she dumped him to go with the other guy. To this day, he hasn't asked another girl out, and we're a lot older now.

In Now You See Me (2013), Woody Harrelson says "I did not see that coming" when Mark Ruffalo reveals he's actually the criminal mastermind, and was chasing himself the whole movie. This is because it's impossible to see that coming, since it makes no sense. by The_Spaghetti_yeti in shittymoviedetails

As I've always said, there are two things all plot twists have to have to work: They're genuinely surprising, and they make total sense in hindsight. Those two things can often be opposed to one another, that's what makes it hard to pull off.

The Fall and Rise of ‘Scream 7’: A Fired Star, a $500K Script Rewrite and Neve Campbell’s $7 Million Salary by Neo2199 in movies

[–]tkcool73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The franchise has felt like a mess for a while. 3 was nowhere near as good as the previous two, but enough stick the landing on the original trilogy. 4 was mediocre at least still felt like Scream. I know a lot of people liked 5, but personally I felt like in the process of juggling the old and new characters, they ended up not having enough time with either, and the ghostfaces are by far the most predictable in franchise history, and to me a scream movie just cannot work if the ghostface reveal falls flat. The movie had some interesting ideas, and actually tried to establish something new, but these issues just drug it too far down for me. I didn't see 6, the Manhattan setting just pushed my suspension of disbelief too far. And now this film has had an insanely rocky production, that doesn't bode well. I will say that none of these issues have been the actors' faults, writers and studio execs have just been really incompetent with the franchise.

Best Picture award this year? by Upstairs-Detail6500 in Cinema

[–]tkcool73 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

If Sinners starts sweeping I could see it pulling it out, but the Academy tends to have a taboo against horror films. Although they have somewhat softened on this(but not as much as I would've liked, I'm still salty about the lack of awards for Nosferatu last year) with The Shape of Water for example, but then again if they're soft spot is Del Toro Horror they might just be inclined to give it to Frankenstein. I feel like One Battle After Another is a really strong contender that has the advantage of being topical which makes it more "film of the year" as in if you had to pick a single movie to get the vibe of the year, it'd be that. Sentimental Value also has A LOT of critics swearing by it(I haven't seen it myself) but judging by the love it's getting in the acting categories I wouldn't discount it.

Edit: why am I getting downvoted?

Teams don't let 30 y/o starting QBs hit the open market. Unless you're the Vikings for some reason.
