good, I’m glad. I saw it in the theater and the biggest thing I took away from it was an appreciation for not having overdone it. just a fun, nostolgic take on an old halloween classic with ultimately low stakes. hit just the right note as far as I’m concerned.
still 100 million is a lowered budget. sheesh.
Hollywood accounting is insane. Offically all movies loose money.
What if they could tight money?
Exactly. Nothing about the original screams blockbuster, and nothing about the new one (except maybe some of the casting) does either. It’s just a really fun and, in my opinion, overall great movie. There’s nothing $50 million could have done to improve upon it. And it is absolutely worth seeing in a cinema.
I really enjoyed it.
I’m sure I’ve seen better comedies, but I really can’t remember when.
Hey anyone who has seen it, was it good? One of my favorite ongoing comic series is being produced by the guys who wrote Beetlejuice² and produced Wednesday (also haven’t seen, hate remakes/reboots by default, stopped after Total Recall.) I’m nervous lol.
I didn’t like it, too many conflicts or villains and not enough screen time to really work with them, there’s one with an awesome introduction only to appear for approximately 10 minutes in total and get brushed off easily in the end.

It’s funny because there are multiple ones that fit under that description
This is something I really loved actually. I never knew where the plot was going to go because there were so many different dynamics going on. At the end everything was tied together, but having so many things in motion made it unpredictable and fun to watch. To me, at least.
I was very entertained. If you like the first one I say there’s a really good chance you’re going to like this one.
He made us choose between watching it with rude strangers in public and not watching it at all.
you could probably arrange to watch it with nice people in public. or just wait until it hits streaming in a couple months?
You mean after everyone’s done talking about it? 😐
Every fan of Tim Burton’s work that I know constantly talk about all of his overrated movies all of the time, you’ll be fine.
noooooo!!! meemaw went and saw the movie without me!

It seems like the money laundering that has infested classical art has inevitably spread to movie and TV seasons, over 100 million budgets what the fuck
Sure, movie budgets can get ridiculous these days, but making a movie is expensive.
I guess so and inflation threw off my intuition since the rate keeps accelerating. Cleopatra in '63 for 31 million would be over 301 million today in inflation adjusted dollars, and avengers in 2012 at 220 million would be over 318 million today. It’s staggering how much less a dollar is worth today than just 12 years ago.
