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?
The fact that 100million dollars is a low budget movie now somehow is mind blowing to me.
$100 million isn't considered low budget in Hollywood.
Takeaway message — if you want your work shown in theaters, don’t sell your production to Warner-Discovery.
I'll do you one better - if you want your work to see the light of day at all, don't sell your production to Warner-Discovery, as it might get cancelled for a tax writeoff.
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.
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 was very entertained. If you like the first one I say there's a really good chance you're going to like this one.
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
I really liked it. I like the first way better but this one is good. The art style was a nice continuation of the original and it had some great practical effects. I love that it had most of the same people. The sound design was good and reminded me of the original. I liked that they explored more of the dead characters from the first one too.
I really enjoyed it.
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?
