Movies: Presumably 2025, maybe Beyond

Is it just me or does that look like Willem Dafoe just without the Goblin helmet on?

Edit: it’s hard to tell based on the pic I posted here, but if you run across another version on the internet it’s much clearer…

That would be weird. I was kind of hoping it would actually be Hobgoblin.

Sony are bad at dealing with price gouging across all divisions apparently…

I have now seen it.

Wright took to horror far easier than I thought he would, seemingly revelling in making an early 60’s social critique movie, but for the 2020’s. It’s a hard film to talk about without spoiling it (and I did notice that most of the trailers are in the first 20 minutes) but, given where I am posting this, the point that most stood out was the amount of blatant Bond references

Summary

Three of which will give away the ending if combined…

I really enjoyed it, but I’d like to see it again before I say any more.

Edit (contradicting myself): the level to which Wright emphasised the social criticism in the script makes me think The Running Man is a very good fit for him, wouldn’t be so sure on other King books (outside of Misery, which already has a perfect adaptation) but a story that brutally criticises mans inhumanity to man for the sake of “entertainment” will go well with Wright’s strengths, going by this, Hot Fuzz and Scott Pilgrim

25K for a movie ticket? Popcorn inclusive?

Sounds much like a staged PR stunt.

If Sony have the same problem with their phones, let’s just call it a marketing strategy

Does anyone actually use a Sony phone?

Not that I’m aware

That’s so 2006.:grin:

What is Sony?

They produce phones?

Here’s a loving tribute to the quality of Sony products. (Be sure to watch with your headphones on if you’re at work or have kids in the room):

Her profile should be rising astronomically after No Time to Die. She was easily the best part of one of the highest grossing films of the year.

She was also the best part of Knives Out.
