Interesting wardrobe choices on the right there.
Can’t wait to see this movie, even if it’s terrible. Maybe especially if it’s terrible.

Better safe than sorry. She would've been so embarrassed if it turned out to be a black tie event and she had forgotten to leave her titties out.

When you invite your friends to a festival and most of them asked what type festival but two of them just assumed "music festival".

I'm hoping it's surprisingly fun to watch like Violent Night was

This is the right attitude. I feel like people have kind of forgotten what comedies are.
RedshiftOnPandy t1_j9pxrta wrote
Yeah I'm not expecting a beautifully written story with top notch character development. I'm just hoping for clever dialogue and unexpected jokes for a fun watch, which is what I got from violent night

I expect silly and shocking to fuck violently and be ashamed the morning after.

I’m still okay with my decision to take my son to see Snakes On A Plane in the theatre. Samuel L Jackson even called me personally about it.
lynypixie t1_j9rxmd2 wrote
I miss late 90s/early 2000 cinema. The era of « just basic fun » movies. You can’t joke at anything today, and you need a quota of every minority out there. It’s like a checklist.
There is a reason why there are so many remakes and unoriginal stuff. Studios want safe.

My daughter (freshman in HS) is seeing it with her friends this weekend. I might see if I can tag along, sit somewhere else in the theater. Hell, I might do that and just not tell her.
Fastlanedrivr t1_j9r3kk7 wrote
Isn’t it rated R so you should do that anyway? Am I missing something?
ringobob t1_j9r5eq5 wrote
I've seen the trailers, I remember the movies I was watching at that age, I've gone looking for any information about the content of this movie to make sure I'm not missing anything, and we've shown our kids select R rated movies before now (Matrix, , etc), I feel pretty comfortable with letting her go on her own.
Maybe that's a mistake, but I'm comfortable with that, too, I don't expect my decision making to be perfect, but I've done my best.
Fastlanedrivr t1_j9rfkyw wrote
I’m not against ppl under 18 seeing R movies I just meant logistically, the theater should be enforcing that rule. Didn’t meant to insult or imply anything, apologize if it came off that way. I saw plenty of R rated movies before I was 18 as well I’m sure it’s appropriate it’s not an overly violent movie from the looks of it.
ringobob t1_j9ri4h5 wrote
I think they have an adult lined up, I spoke with my daughter about it after making the comment and she asked if I'd be willing to be the adult, so I'm not sure the previous plan is solid. I said yes so long as the other parents are on board, so I may wind up being the adult in the room, we'll see.

"In the beginning, the Cocaine Bear posts were spaced by twenty four weeks. Then twelve, then six, then every two weeks. The last one, about Ray Liotta , was yesterday. By tomorrow we could be seeing a Cocaine Bear post every hour until they are coming every four minutes. Marshal, we should witness a double event within a day."

They keep acting like it’s some genius concept and not a meme that’s been floating around since 2009.
duaneap t1_j9q0svr wrote
The appeal seems from the marketing to be “Look how crazy this concept is! What a kooky title! Who could come up with that!”
And the answer is an 11 year old.
MovieTalkersHunter t1_j9rh7pz wrote
The appeal is watching an animal go crazy and kill people in gruesome, over the top ways. Why is this seemingly so hard to grasp for some people?

I dont think anyone knows the timeline. They found the bear after it ODd. No one was there.
nolo_me t1_j9qr60a wrote
You don't have to be there at the time. The LD50 of cocaine (the amount necessary to be a lethal dose for 50% of test subjects) is 96mg per kg of bodyweight. The bear weighed 79kg and was found to have eaten 34kg of cocaine.

How does this give you Disaster Movie vibes? This doesn't look like high art, but it at least looks like a movie, unlike Disaster Movie.

It’s a gimmick movie who’s entire premise revolves around one goofy idea.

If nothing else it gets bonus points for the reasonable runtime. I'm tired of these damn popcorn movies (especially looking at you, MCU) being like 16 hours long.

Sodernaut t1_j9q6rtk wrote
What do you mean. I for one are expecting high art.
GetToSreppin t1_j9qbzsq wrote
This idea that something stupid or something genre related can't be art is something I deeply disagree with. This movie will still have a story at its core. It will have themes and characters and potentially even social or political commentary. Whether or not those elements of the film are successful are subjective of course, but to me those elements and the attempt are worthy of critical consideration.
ringobob t1_j9r0tu4 wrote
Art isn't about technical components or medium or genre or anything else like that. Art is about emotion. If it makes you react, and feel something, it's art. It needs some abstract element, something that is intended to be interpreted that has no functional goal separate from you the observer, but so long as it has that, and it makes you feel something, it's art.
If it's universally reviled, and that wasn't the intention, you could call it "bad art". But art nonetheless.
That said, "high art" is a little different. At minimum, it requires a high degree of abstraction. Lots of room for, and an ability to instigate, interpretation.
Linubidix t1_j9rizd0 wrote
It's not as stupid as it ought to be.
It somehow doesn't have the follow through or gusto to be a proper trashy B-movie. Plus as an 80s pastiche/homage it's pretty weak.

My favorite thing about this movie is you don’t have to watch it, the entire plot and setting is in the title, and you don’t need to know more! Power to people if they enjoy it but I’m not down to waste time on these “dumb” types of movies anymore.

Seriously so many of the people in the comments section here thinking they're coming off as sassy and witty when in actuality they're just coming off incredibly miserable and whiny little girls.

As clichéd as it is, all the best bits are in the trailer. And if those are the best bits, that's a good indication of what rhe rest of it is like.

If you've never enjoyed a "dumb" movie then you and I wouldn't be friends. That's no judgement on you, at least from me. Just saying, I'm sure you've found your people and I've found mine, but they probably aren't the same people, and this movie looks exactly like the kind of dumb time waster I'm interested in.
