Movie Thread VII: Adrian's Revenge

Dead Reckoning was dead awful, easily the worst of the series…yes it’s worse than IM2.

So, F1 The Movie (coming later this month to Apple TV+)…

As a life-long F1 fan & follower, of course I’m expecting them to completely butcher this, and for me to spend the entire movie fuming at the “artistic licence” an American production applies to a historically European-centric sport.

However, I will concede that the “haptic trailer” for it in the Apple TV app (presumably iPhone only?) is a bit of fun. The haptics are way overdone, but still fun.

Just watch Fast and Furious, surely?

As long as they don’t go down the Drive to Survive route. Finding it very frustrating how the last few seasons have dissolved into more focus on the drama, than the actual racing.

Same director as Top Gun 2 and the trailer looks like its the same movie, but on whes.

Im personally fine with it as Top Gun 2 was one of the most fun cinema expriences ive had in the last 10 years

hmmmm, dont know.

why, just why do they need to resurrect old classics and just absolutely ruin them??? Let the classics be classics and just come up with a new fucknig idea

Never have and never will watch the Blues Brothers sequel.

It better be called the search for more money

Edit: the trailer does have an interesting point

If Mel’s writing it, there’s at least a chance it’s good.

I’m all in for another spin of Spaceballs. It’s Mel and co doing another run, it’ll be in the right spirit.

It’s also a significantly older Mel though. Is there any talk about who will control the artistic direction etc? I hate being a cynic, but I can just see some Hollywood exec forcing in a whole bunch of tits and dick jokes to sell to a new audience. Need to remember that the original Spaceballs was filmed to a very different audience.

28 years later was terribly disappointing. I’d obviously a story builder for the next two movies, but still very poor. Very little point, and it seemed like the only reason was to show giant monster cocks on screen.
