Mythbusters debunked this, although they used a football field sized sheet and forklifts, but they were able to fold it 11 times. The myth they tested was 7 times being impossible.

I really hope they don’t abandon what made them great. They’ve become my favorite studio. Almost every movie they put out, I absolutely love or can at least appreciate the big swing. Movies like Lamb don’t get made by any other studio and still be able to be seen by most. I don’t understand this decision after how Everything Everywhere All at Once was received.

‘Alien: Romulus’: Ridley Scott Says Fede Álvarez’s Movie Is “F***ing Great” (deadline.com)

Of course he’s going to say that, but somehow this is the first I’ve heard that Fede Álvarez is directing an Alien movie. It’s hard to be optimistic about a new Alien announcement lately, but I’m hoping this gets a treatment similar to Dan Trachtenberg’s Prey. It’s also a Hulu release so we’ll see.

This was exactly my thinking as well. And I’m cautiously optimistic that Fede may take Alien back to its horror roots.

I don’t know if Fede is necessarily the prime choice, Dan at least had the excellent 10 Cloverfield Lane under their chops, but I think giving relatively new directors tired franchises is great.

Not sure what you mean here. Fede has 3 feature films under his belt already, one being the Evil Dead reboot. Dan only had 1 film before making Prey. Fede will also have around twice as many years of experience as Dan did when he made Prey. Fede’s first feature was a decade ago, not exactly new.

Us I liked a lot if I don’t try to logic it out.

Us is the very epitome of explaining “suspension of disbelief” IMO. I enjoyed it but if you think about the logistics AT ALL, it all falls apart.

On this Thursday we’re watching Ready or Not and From Beyond, both I haven’t seen before.

Love both of these. Ready or not is more slasher/thriller, but it’s a fun ride. From Beyond is just weird, but I love it. It’s silly horror effects and 80s weirdness in a perfect package.

I’d definitely put it in a similar vein.

Yes, I heard she is barely in the movie. And the other cameo I heard about is nothing.

Yeah, I can’t believe it’s a planned trilogy. It does seem that DGG may not be returning to direct though, so that’s promising. From what I’ve heard about the story of this and based on how Haloween went, he seems to be obsessed with the community banding together to fight. And that just doesn’t make sense for an exorcism. I will watch it at some point just for curiosity sake, but I don’t think I will be spending money on it.

ugh, so disappointing. The only positive I’ve heard from this movie is Ellen Burstyn demanded that instead of her pay, they set up a scholarship for young actors. That’s awesome.

I just rewatched the original and was going to check this out but it is universally panned. Every opinion I’ve watched/read/listened to says it’s terrible. David Gordon Green just seems to want to ruin all these classic horror franchises. What’s next?

Yup, there should be a reason for a cameo, not just a “hey remember this person”

Awesome! Korean food is so delicious. I grew up eating it and I’m so glad it’s become known worldwide more.

I love that gochujang has taken off like Sriracha. Been eating it all my life.

I think this trailer skews closer to the Gene Wilder version but it still feels super forced. It just feels like “who is this for?”
