zev Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 I wonder if the last line of that Chokeslam trailer, where Foley says you get used to concussions, is one day going to be revealed as why they took him off of RAW this time around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For that to happen, Vince would need to know that "talkies" exist. Pop culture wise, he's still working through the silent film era. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.T. Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Directed by Ana Lily Amirpour? I'm in! I saw a few trailers for Sleight while watching some of the NBA playoff games. I hope that flick does well when it comes out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is Reservoir Dogs without the off color ethnic jokes and a helluva lot more bullets. It's like RESERVOIR DOGS meets MAD MAX: FURY ROAD, inasmuch as it takes the latter's strategy of turning a car chase into an entire film and applies it to gun fights. I really could have used a crane shot at some point, though, to make sense of the whole things spatially. Not only did it remind me how great Sharlto Copley can be, it's legitimately the first time Army Hammer has been anything but tall and vanilla. He actually added to my enjoyment of the film. That's never happened before. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is Reservoir Dogs without the off color ethnic jokes and a helluva lot more bullets. Having seen it this afternoon, I would say Free Fire is more Wheatley's speed than something like High-Rise. I thought High-Rise was decent, but I think it's a little too ambitious for Wheatley at this point of his career. You could rewatch Free Fire three or four times in a day, and still be satisfied with every viewing. That brings me to my next point: I would compare Free Fire more to The Hateful Eight than Reservoir Dogs if I had to compare it to a Tarantino film. I think the people who were dissatisfied with Hateful Eight wanted something along the lines of Free Fire rather than the equivalent of a bloody, slow burn three hour stage play. I think people readily compare Free Fire and Reservoir Dogs because of the setting. You take away the setting, and it's a completely different movie. Johnnie To's Three that just came out not too long ago is more similar to Reservoir Dogs than Free Fire and that's in a hospital (even though the final act is part Die Hard). Free Fire has dark humor mixed with blood, but it's more cheeky than a cop getting terrorized and Lawrence Tierney cutting promos. I was laughing like 85% of the time (especially when Ord, Harry, or Vernon would drop one liners in the background). Plus, the exposition in Reservoir Dogs means WAY MORE than what you're given in Free Fire. In the latter, you got the IRA dudes, Stevo fucking with Harry's cousin, and Vernon as the Apartheid era white South African guy calling his giant black associate who can kick his ass "boy". Everything else you don't really need as the whole thing revolves something extremely stupid that could have been handled easily. Reservoir Dogs had outside forces that fucked the job up, and the fact Roth's character was an undercover (that guy from Colors who was Roth's partner is still one of the worst actors I've ever seen BTW) along with other stuff central to the plot. The Hateful Eight didn't have that many moving pieces that were extremely important. It just happens to be double the length as Free Fire and Reservoir Dogs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted April 24, 2017 Author Share Posted April 24, 2017 International Trailer for The Mummy which covers most of the same crowd as the regular trailer I think I am staying far away from this in the Blockbuster pool because I am thinking the Tom Cruise factor is gonna lead to this doing far better than it has any right to.

Craig H Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 The weird thing is, well, maybe it isn't so weird, is that if the Mummy had Simon Pegg, Ving Rhames, and other M:I dudes in it and were a M:I movie based around a Mummy type thing, then I would be all about this movie. Instead it's a reboot of the Mummy and I couldn't care less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig H Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 That movie was retconned out of existence. Is Bryan Singer doing the Dark Phoenix movie? Also, I want the Phoenix Saga movie. I want X-Men going into outer space. I want that sort of wild ass movie and not another period movie where they beg Jennifer Lawrence to come back as Mystique. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
