Last Film You Watched

Running man (new) - went in with low expectations, was pleasantly surprised, thought it was good, ending was a bit messy tho

 

[Daytripper]

I watched the latest predator film

Obviously new what i was in for.

Confused why theyve gone a different direction here. I'd have expected them to go darker as those type of changes seem to boost ratings...

...but they went full PG.

Why did they do that?

Potential box office takings maybe, appeal to younger audiences and the older ones who grew up/know the franchise.

They did the same with Robocop in the 90s with the third film, Liam Neeson’s third Taken film, some of the Terminators (I never bothered after T2), Die Hard 4 etc.

It rarely works and they lose some of what made them such a success in the first place.

Watched a trailer today for the upcoming Spielberg movie , Disclosure Day. Coming in Summer 2026 with a great cast. Looks really intriguing.

Iconic stories like the money made from Star Wars (Lucas licenced the image rights entirely to himself) and how Cameron waived his fee for Titanic for a % of the gross.

Lucasfilm won in court today re Peter Cushing's image rights digitally resurrected for 'Rogue One'.

Avatar 3 out today

Avatar 3 out today

If they couldn`t even make the trailers look half decent, what chance has the film got ?

Can see this one being a massive flop.

3 and a half hours long!!!

And there's still another 2 parts to come.

I swear Avatar built a cut due to how long the second one took to come out, it made people forget how bad the original was

After the discussion the other day about older films and the remakes, I stuck on the original The Running Man.

Not overly enamoured with it.

You have to appreciate the fact that it`s a pure 80`s film.

I do, and I’ve enjoyed it for what it is. Wouldn’t watch it again though.

Wasn't it made with a nod and a wink to the MTV phenomenon? "Don't touch that dial!" specifically a copy cat advert logo? I may be misremembering.

There was a second one what did it rip off?
