Least promising Sequel/Remake/Franchise Flick of 2020

fuck offBad Boys for Life
Bad Boys for Life
watched this for free and: it's aight. the absence of Bay leaves the filmmmakers vaguely enabled to make the film about something and to not invade another country for lols. it's not about much: just aging, and growing apart, and the value of retaining some capability to change and adapt in your later years. but these themes are woven into the plot, events and action, not smeared hastily on as an afterthought. handing over the reins to younger fans works in a similar way that it did on American Wedding, or the Gibbons bros' crossmedia revitalisation of Alan Partridge, but can't get much deeper than Bad Boys already had room for. solid 3/10.
Literally every single trailer I saw before it was for a sequel or franchise flick though.

I saw the trailer for peter rabbit 2 going to see the mr Rogers movies last night. I’m speechless it is absolutely dire and what it has to do with the beloved children’s book I don’t know.

My reaction to the Peter Rabbit movies is basically the same reaction I would've had if they'd cast Rob Schneider as Mr. Rogers.

luckily i'm busy with actual grown-up paid writing work currently (not enough! commission me ilx!) but as someone who as a kid read and reread the many dolittle books many many times i am kind of intrigued enough by this i'm guessing ghastly zombie franchise to want to watch it all from scratch and write it all up
(i saw the rex harrison as a kid and i guess quite liked it, i like that windward islands locals in st lucia's marigot bay keep bits of the shattered fragments of the giant pink sea snail as exotic-ironic decoration in their garden)
also this is terrible-great obv:

Shrinking the kids is an intergenerational cycle.

All will be forgiven if they include one 'I learned it from watching you!' joke.

Funny that long-delayed "The Hunt" is finally being released, but "The Purge" series has just kept churning along, movies and tv.

Sonic did $58 million over the weekend, so expect next year's list to be that much more horrifying.

It got good reviews, not that I'll ever watch it.

Which is to say it got SOME good reviews, for a movie that looks like it should have received NO good reviews.

Altered Beast: starring John Cena
― sorry for butt rockin (Neanderthal), Wednesday, 19 February 2020 17:31 (four years ago) link
lol i also immediately thought "an Altered Beast movie could be cool." but it's also something that really should have come out in the mid-90s, with effects and vibe basically equivalent to Spawn crossed with idk Dragonheart.

most likely: an Ecco the Dolphin movie that just punts everything about its vibe and unfulfilled ambitions, and is just, yknow, a cgi kids movie about a dolphin

No Time To Die, Peter Rabbit 2 and Mulan all postponed. Maybe it'll be COVID-19 that finally kills off the franchise era.

i liked the invisible man. quite an experience in a movie theatre. don't watch the trailer, it gives away every big scene.

Except the success of TIM apparently has inspired Universal to take another crack at the Dark Universe: http://epicstream.com/news/TinyDiapana/Universal-Developing-New-Dracula-Movie-For-Its-Dark-Universe.

Scoob! has been dumped to VOD, and is apparently not merely bad, but another failed universe-starter:
I’m not really spoiling anything, but the movie switches from being a Scooby-Doo movie to a vehicle to introduce various “B” level Hanna Barbera characters. Scooby and Shaggy join forces with Blue Falcon and Dynomutt: The Dog Wonder to fight Dick Dastardly, who is hunting for three skulls that open Alexander the Great’s tomb and along the way they go to Dinosaur Island and fight Captain Caveman.

I will fight anyone who calls Dynomutt a B-level character.

Since childhood, Shaggy Rogers, Fred Jones, Velma Dinkley, and Daphne Blake have been solving mysteries across the globe accompanied by Shaggy's pet dog, Scooby-Doo. But their greatest mystery together comes in a turn of events when they run into the Blue Falcon, who is trying to prevent his arch-rival, Dick Dastardly from causing a global "dogpocalypse" by unleashing the Great Cerberus on the world.
