Somehow, tragically... it is only just now that I'm discovering the existence of this movie, The Legend of the 7 Golden Vampires....
 
Of course being an obscure thing I've already found the whole thing posted on youtube....I found it by browsing yet another channel that had the entire "House" movie.
Anyway, I haven't watched the whole thing yet but I already like the concept here.  If I were one of the suits in Hollywood production companies, looking for yet another thing to reboot, this is prime material right here.  Imagine this with today's level of special effects tech and choreography.  

Nothing.
Racism is the classic deflection used by companies when people don't like their product.

The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power on FB is defending itself
 

 

 

 

Damn, Halle is gonna catch shit for things that have fuck all to do with her performance:
 
 
I'm not saying she is bad in this. But after watching 5 seconds of the trailer it made me realize that this movie was headed into hard visual effect situation like the "live action" Lion King. I'm not sure that live action Lion King needed to happen and now I'm not sure that this necessarily needed to either.

Not sorry at all 

 
 

I wonder if she found any coins down there.

In the "Smut Sunday" files...
 
 

🤘

Never seen the live action BATB. So I looked it up. 
 

 

Someone needs to face criminal charges for this shit.

I thought black people didn't like to swim, so making Ariel a black mermaid doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me. 
 
They should have made her a Mexican.

I can’t get behind belle. She’s kind of a piece of shit. The very  first song in the movie is her making fun of everyone in her village doing what they need to do to survive the day to day. Including her father. 
 
Yet,  while they all bust their ass all she does is read young adult literature while thinking she’s better for “wanting more”. But what happens? She ends up being stockholmed by a piece of shit murderous furry that was justifiably cursed. 
 
so much for being smarter and better than everyone you stuck up bitch. 

My beef with race swapped characters. Is that it's the laziest form of inclusion and diversity. Make a new IP with a new character that is black, Asian, Latino etc. With a story and challenges unique to his or her race and or culture? 
 
Ain't nobody got time fo dat! Just take a popular well known brand. And put a black person on the front and call it a day. 

"Let's take the greatest classics of Disney animation and translate them in a medium that deliberately tries to kill all the quirks and uniqueness of animation" was the most retarded idea ever conceived by mankind since that time in the 1910s and 1920s when it was popular to add random radioactive elements to shit like drinks and jewelry because it was cool and new.

Lion King was all CG though (and they apparently announced Mufasa which...I'll only be interested in if they learned from the mistakes of Lion King.  Characters need to be more expressive.  Needs to be some compromise between the original 2D and the realistic 3D cause while realistic Lion King is not bad...it definitely was lacking in some of the charm and heart from the 2D) so I'm pretty confident that Little Mermaid will probably be closer to Beauty and the Beast (personally think this is was the best done realistic remake out of everything I've seen them put out).  Halle's got the voice and I'm hoping that in combination with her performance will quell some of the dumb outrage.

This man definitely needs to fake his death for this.

Saw Bullet-Train
 
Honestly, I really enjoyed it. It's more style over substance (in a good way). This felt like it should have been released in the mid-2000s. All of the performances were solid, the action was slick, and there are a few cameos to boot. I'd give this one your time. 
 
As of right now,  this is how I'd rank the 2022 movies I saw in theaters based on my general feelings at recall:
 
Top Gun: Maverick Everything, Everywhere All at Once Bullet-Train The Batman Sonic 2 Thor: Love and Thunder The Norseman Dr. Strange and the Multiverse of Madness  
 
 

Gonna be trash I think, Kevin Smith hasnt produced anything good since the 90s.

WTF
 
 
 

Yeah dude, we also had:
 
Robocop
Princess Bride
Raising Arizona
Full Metal Jacket
Untouchables
Good Morning Vietnam
Adventures in Babysitting 
Spaceballs
and Monster Squad
 
Great fucking year for movies.
 

The new Pinhead from the upcoming Hellraiser reboot has been revealed and now we won't sleep tonight
Actress Jamie Clayton's take on the character made iconic by Doug Bradley looks set to be suitably terrifying

A fresh take on the Hellraiser franchise is set to arrive next month, and its new version of the series' iconic antagonist has finally been revealed. Hellraiser, a reboot based on both the original film series and its source material, Clive Barker's 1986 horror novella The Hellbound Heart, is due for release on October 7 via Hulu, and its version of Pinhead - the beloved horror icon made famous by English actor Doug Bradley - will be played by American actress Jamie Clayton (Sense8).
  Finally, the first image of the new Pinhead has been revealed by production company Spyglass, and it looks like Clayton's take on the character is going to be a terrifying one.
  In The Hellbound Heart, Pinhead - unnamed in the novel - is described as an androgynous being with a high-pitched, feminine voice - something which was in stark contrast to Doug Bradley's booming, deep-voiced take on the character.
"What Doug Bradley did with the character is so iconic," the director adds. "We didn't want to do a Doug Bradley impression, we just didn't think that's possible to do. There will be suffering, but you're going to get a sense of what Pinhead's desires might be in a way that hits a little different."
  Bruckner also tells Entertainment Weekly that the film's plot will focus on a young addict who ends up being exposed to the famed Lament Configuration puzzlebox that summons the Cenobites. He also reveals that as well as a new Pinhead, we'll be seeing some brand new Cenobites that have never been on screen before.
The original Hellraiser film was released in 1987, spawning nine sequels, all but two starring Doug Bradley as Pinhead. The most recent sequel, Hellraiser: Revalations, was released in 2018.
