It was good, but not great
Clint Howard
It’s good for a laugh.
He is cool
So far so good
Bring back the Automat!
What do you think those bubbles were?
Horrendous soundtrack!
(Spoilers) How did the father die?
I kinda liked it; worth one look at least

Another one for you. Just watched Jezebel’s Kiss here. He gets shot in the head.
After this movie I decided to google how many times he died in total and it brought me to this post.
No, I think it can be scary if the gore done right and looks realistic enough. And at times it did. I winced right away as Art went to town hacking off limbs like lumberjack. Btw, this movie must be the goriest Christmas-themed film I ever seen!!! Beats any old school films for sure. Some scenes looked good (gore-wise) and some like the rats scene didn’t work for me (looked fake). And . Oh. Those crunching sound effects were damn good (at the cinema— it was loud). I wonder if Savini was giving some pointers to director since he’s a makeupfx wizard. Sadly his role was so small though.
I can’t wait to check it out. Haven’t seen him doing standup in a long time. I hope it’s edgy. Everyone’s got their own taste when it comes to comedy. I hope he talks about current events too.
Shishmaahrr!!!
What an incredible performance by him and what a wonderful movie! I hold it dear to my heart this movie. There’s nothing comes close to it from memorable sets, creature designs, atmosphere, music! Just a great space adventure with a heart and soul.
I’m watching this movie now and yeah, I agree it’s unintentionally funny.
You nailed it Heisenberg! I’m with you on this one. I could’ve not said it better. I just wanna add my poor man’s two cents here.
I didn’t care for anyone either. You made all good points there. This movie doesn’t havr a soul, it’s an empty shell. They dwelved too much into Chakobsa dialect too. It’s uneeded, it’s distracting. I didn’t want to read so much subtitles, itgets annoying. I wanted Harkonenns to be cool, brutal. Vladimir was a wimp! Lynch’s version is much better. Where is Paul Verhoeven when he’s needed? They whimped out on PG-13. And enough with the constant ululation/wailing, enough! My ears were bleeding. I had to walk out after 1 hr in, couldn’t take it anymore and just finished watching it on disc, still sucks.
Yeah she is. Surprised to see her here since she’s not an actress.
Yeah, I think they overdid with the old music, it’s a bit too much, but at least it’s the music that was in the games starting from Fallout-3. I played those games and there was a radio station that played the oldies. I kinda liked it, because it’s a satire - a peaceful music against the backdrop of the violent world. It’s a melancholy thing. Other than that I think the show actually delivered. It’s fun.
I’m with you. I walked out on it too after seeing about half of it. I’m 45 year old dude, so I don’t have patience anymore for something I’m not enjoying. It was bad lighting, bad music, bad direction. Too much of subtitles. I didn’t buy Paul and Chani’s romance, not enough development shown there. One minute she despises Paul, then the next thing you see she’s in love with him, give me a break. It doesn’t work.
I play it on Spotify every time I play World War Z game, it works so well.
