I feel this way about any talented director doing franchise movies. For example the director of Moonlight is doing the ****ing Mufasa prequel….

Absolutely true.

What’s the consensus on Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2? I know some folks that love it because it’s different from the first, but I mean…yikes, it’s kinda bad.

I love Texas chainsaw 2. It's reflected the excess of 80s slashers perfectly. Rob Zombie even made a career out of conceptually remaking it three times.

I like the remake a lot despite it looking like a late 90s industrial video and it being inspired by the original film's reputation rather the actual movie. Should be retitled the zeitgeist chainsaw massacre.

I also love TCM2. Undoubtedly my favourite of the sequels, and to my shame, for a little while I had it as my overall favourite.

Yeah I rewatched this Halloween and my opinion did change on it. The original is still untouchable though.

Madame Web was just okay. It is over-hated.

I'm more of a fan of Suicide Squad 2016 than I am of The Suicide Squad 2021.

Sure, Suicide Squad is not without faults, and I can definitely understand why some or maybe even the majority don't like it. But I just prefer it over the latter. I feel it likely has to do with the forced deaths and forced retconned feeling of it all. I know many of those were done in the opening with supposed humor. But it just did sit well with me.

Gunn has done a lot I like; this was just one I wasn't that big on.

 

[Captain Tired]

I liked both but rate them about the same. I didn't think either was markedly better than the other.

I've sat on this one for a while and my true feelings didn't really come to pass until I realized I have no excitement for the sequel.

I'm just not a fan of Todd Phillips/Joaquin Phoenix's Joker movie.

Don't get me wrong, I did watch it (streamed it), I confirm and appreciate that Joaquin did amazing, the movie itself is a great film. But as a Joker film I just don't care. It's to the point that I couldn't care less about Joker: Folie A Deux. I probably won't even see it until it's on some streaming service that I have like Netflix or Amazon.

I just re-watched the Beverly Hills Cops films, and I still don't see what is so bad about the third one. Okay, maybe the formula wasn't as fresh as it was for the first film and Taggard and Bogomil aren't in it (although Bogomil was barely in the second to begin with), but I really don't see where it is this shameful abomination. It is still a fun action movie.

I've seen quite a few people share that same view about Joker on these boards. Personally I think that if you take away Joaquin's performance, the score and the cinematography there's not much else there. That said I'm still intrigued by the sequel.

I really don't get love for Collateral or Heat.

I think after the first 3 or 4 zombie movies it's unrealistic to have the protagonists not know that you have to shoot them in the head to kill them, they always go for the body and then get bit.
