Paid Members Tommy! Posted October 31, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted October 31, 2022 I'm halfway through a double bill of evil dead 1 & 2. It was hyped by a mate for years but every time I watch it I seem to be more and more ambivalent. I don't hate it, but I don't really enjoy it either. On the plus's side I'm on pints 5 & 6 going into PT 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidB6937 Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 Interesting move. Not sure what they'll do with it being a prequel series. Bryan Fuller being attached makes me more interested though. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members chokeout Posted October 31, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted October 31, 2022 They're pulling a Thunderball and just rewriting the bit of the story that they own. Carny fuckers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was better than the fourth but still shite. Until you've sat through two seasons of the MTV Scream series that I'm pretty certain was made for 12-16 year old girls, you don't get to express regret! Was this an innocent warning post? Or a genius bit of shithousery making sure that you're aware that it's actually a thing while you're torturing yourself compulsively watching all things Scream? Time will tell. Nobody will think any less of you for being a quitter who could only make it less than half way through the complete Scream saga.

Paid Members Hannibal Scorch Posted October 31, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted October 31, 2022 Just saw The Thing for the first time at a 40th Anniversary screening. It’s bloody good. Wish more people talked about it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Tommy! Posted October 31, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted October 31, 2022 Off topic I remember the PS2 game being well received at the time but now forgotten, but the camera gave me motion sickness so I never got that far in.

First chance I’ve ever had to see it in the cinema and it still looks great I’ve been lucky enough to see ET, Poltergeist and The Thing in 40th Anniversary 4K (and 4K IMAX for ET), The Lost Boys and Jaws (4K restored 3D). It’s been a great year for remastered Cinema classics, which is good because other than Top Gun Maverick and Everything Everywhere All At Once  it’s not been a vintage year for new films.

Yeah a lot of those having been playing near me too but I’ve just not had the time to see any of them. Going back to The Thing for a moment, might I recommend the 2017 BluRay that Arrow released. Uses the 4K scan that you saw tonight, packed with extras and a fun commentary from John Carpenter & Kurt Russell (who are drinking throughout). It’s currently £8.99 on Amazon https://amzn.eu/d/5v4zO3s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember a dvd magazine years ago doing a run down of the best and worst commentaries and this was held up as the gold standard against the infamous Arnie /Total Recall one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
