Movie Thread

They want a third movie to expand on Pennywise's backstory, you know, the worst part of the book?

I'm sure normies would love to watch a movie about an evil space spider crashing on earth to piss of a giant space turtle. This might actually be dumber than that Game of Thrones prequel series about those ugly fairies whose only contribution to the entire plot - the creation of Wight Supremacy - nobody is even aware of.

His Kennedy time travel series was a whole lot of nothing. Spoiler: nothing happens.

I bought Hannibal, because I'd read Red Dragon and figured 'Fuck it, might as well read them all' and on the back of the book, you know how most books have all the praise for the book? Well, there's a quote there from Stephen King, and I swear to God he's the only person on Earth who thought Hannibal was remotely better than Red Dragon or The Silence of the Lambs.

I'm surprised #Time's Up darling Chastain agreed to play a rape victim without it ever being brought up. It's almost like child rape is normal in Hollywood.

Roald Dahl hated Willy Wonka and the Choclate Factory. He hated the songs, hated Wilder as Wonka, and hated how Wonka was more prominent than Charlie. If he only lived to see Burton's verison.

Or the cheap-ass Tom and Jerry crossover DTV movie.

Yeah, then he could hang himself.

I think World War Two fucked him up enough

Could be. Anyway, here are some reviews that accuse it of being politically irresponsible:

"Joker" is the boldest and most exciting superhero movie since "The Dark Knight." It's also incendiary, confused, and potentially toxic.

You really read reviews from critics like this? I find these reviews and opinions as credible as opinions of a golden retriever.

I'd read Golden Retriever Reviews religiously.

How dare they make the movie more about the most interesting character instead of the poorfag child self-insert?
