Terrible Movie Tuesday

[THWG]

While disappointing, I can't say this is unexpected...

X-Men: Dark Phoenix is gonna be garbage

I kind of figured that. I'm waiting for the Men in Black to come out.

I've got the absolute winner here...........'Idiocracy' wins hands down in my book. Absolutely loved that movie but it probably got a negative score for ratings.

Negative score!!!??? That's my favorite movie. That's uncalled for.

I was in the theater to watch it this afternoon, but the projector wasn't working.

The trailers aren't very good, so I wasn't expecting much. Maybe the non-working projector was better than watching the movie.

This is gonna be a debacle and, as a lifelong X-Men fan, I'm gonna have to see it anyway.

I watched Cold Pursuit last night. I hadn't seen any previews or reviews so I thought it was a typical Liam Neeson movie. It isn't. It is an attempt to meld a Liam Neeson movie with Fargo. I enjoy Neeson movies. Fargo is a great movie. I guess it was successful at the act of melding them together, but the result isn't worth watching.

I actually watche Fargo for the very first time this past weekend. I thought I heard it was a comedy but was somewhat surprised at what it actually was. It lived up to the billing for sure, I was just expecting something different

So did you like it or not? I loved it, and the 2 (maybe 3) subsequent mini-series on TV were awesome also.

I really did like it.

I am a huge Peter Stormare fan.

You said you thought you heard it was a comedy. It was a comedy of sorts; it's called black comedy or dark comedy.

Wait, you saw Fargo for the 1st time?

Correct

This is the first time I’ve heard Fargo described as a comedy, dark or otherwise

Check out Blood Simple and Miller’s Crossing. Not Barton Fink though

Really? That's the only way I have ever heard it described, and in my opinion, that is exactly what it was. I thought it was hilarious, while at the same time being brutal and bloody.

Starting watching what I thought was a trailer then realized you had posted the whole movie. That is dedication.

I loved Barton Fink but then I like everything the Cohen brothers do.

And it’s got Troy McClure from The Simpsons

I think I’ve seen Millers Crossing (Gabriel Byrne?)

Yep, and Albert Finney. They play Irish Gangsters

The dark comedy discussion reminded me of “Eating Raul”—B movie, and not Coen brothers at all.
