MOVIE SCHEDULE
From now on when I am undecided what to watch Iβm will go by what the LIST says, I waste to much time deciding what to watch most nights, hopefully this will speed up the process.
Trying to disguise your miserable statement behind a βno disrespect to anyoneβ is very cheap.
This movies was never gonna make its money back, is a LAIKA movie, they deliver quality and timeless classics, not box office success (only one it did was CORALINE).
WILDWOOD is my movie of the year, I only want to rewatch it over and over again, that is all I care about.
βBoxtrolls is still their [LAIKA] best movie.β
I really wish I liked Wildwood more than I did. The animation is impressive, to be sure. It's probably the most ambitious stop motion movie ever made. I just wish that ambition was in service of more interesting ideas. The story is painfully generic YA kind of junk, most of the character designs are boring. The prelude is dark and mysterious and for a minute I though it was going to be a much more interesting movie than it ended up being.
It's great to see somebody get $100 million to make his dream project with apparently very little concern about whether it would make the money back, I just wish that the dream had been a little more singular. Honestly, as far as Travis Knight goes, I enjoyed Masters of the Universe more. As far as Laika goes, Boxtrolls is still their best movie.
As far as people saying this is the best stop motion movie ever made? Most ambitious, sure. Best? That's a silly thing to say when we have Nightmare Before Christmas, Mad God, The Wrong Trousers, Memoir of a Snail, and many others
DIE HARD 2: DIE HARDER and DIE HARD WITH A VENGEANCE 4K UltraHD.
Steelbook exclusive (US) with AI artwork with a price tag of $40.00+.
No DOLBY VISION (only HDR10) or DOLBY ATMOS.
I enjoy this movies, but between, I rather have a complete 4K collection (boxset), overpriced steelbook and now the lack of DV, is a HARD pass.
The crease happening is not surprising, people called it from the demo units.
What is surprising, the same people bought it and now are complaining.
The movie will find a second life on disc and streaming, Iβll be surprised if STREET FIGHTER II doesnβt happened.
It's a 70% drop on @Street_Fighter, so looks like it's going to lose a ton of money for @ParamountPics. This is exactly why I've been screaming all these films they are planning like @GIJoeMovie and bro male centric films are screwed unless they have incredibly tight budgets.
If A24 doesn't release YOU CAN SEE EVERYTHING (4K UltraHD) with THE DROPOUT as a double feature or an extra, they are missing a gigantic opportunity.
Happy #LetterboxdFriday! Time to post your #LastFourWatched π
Nice touch @letterboxd ...

All opinions are valid and no one should be attacked for liking or disliking a piece of art.
At the same time, I find it tasteless to say people who enjoy the movie are being hyperbolic, seems a bit out of place.
Once again we're seeing a critic heaped with insults and horrible comments because they've (rightly) criticised a film... Which the general audience hasn't even watched yet!
Personally couldn't agree more with @ryangaur the hyperbolic praise around Wildwood is a bit silly now
