Watching teen wolf for the first time and I absolutely cannot get over just how many sound effects are used every second. There's absolutely NO lingering quietness, every even remotely scary scene absolutely MUST be filled with

BLOW

DUN DUN DUN

*SCARY VIOLIN*

DU-DUNNNNN

The horses names are Coffee Bean and Barbara! Barbara named herself (Spock asked) and Jim named his horse and she approved. She’s also a hyper nut so it was fitting 🤠

Miss that period from like the 1990s to the mid 2000s where every year there'd be two high-profile films with the exact same premise. Like, not a rip-off made after the fact, but two or more similar films made and released around the same time, with one clearly made to counter the other, but with it often unclear which was the original or if there was an original or just cinematic convergent evolution

Like, you had 1997's two volcano movies, Dante's Peak and Volcano, with the former taking a much more serious/accurate-ish tone than the other, a pattern repeated by 1998's asteroid movies Armageddon and Deep Impact. 1997 also had two movies where one guy on a hijacked plane must take it back (Air Force One & Con Air) and two movies about the youth of the 14th Dalai Lama (Kundun and Seven Years in Tibet). Why? Who knows! 1995 had two talking pig movies, Gordy and Babe, but in that case Gordy was actually made in 1994 and dumped into theaters to cash in on Babe.

The 2000s brought us 2006, the year of two magician movies (The Illusionist & The Prestige), two Truman Capote-writes-In Cold Blood movies (Capote & Infamous), and two classic Hollywood noirs based on infamous deaths movies (The Black Dahlia & Hollywoodland). And then, the trend seemed to die off, with maybe the last gasp 2009's "metaphor aliens revolt" duology of Avatar & District 9.

Sometimes this clearly represented a broader trend. EDtv was The Truman Show but worse, but there was a big wave of "reality is not what it seems" movies of the late 90s, from Dark City to those two to The Matrix, The Thirteenth Floor, and eXistenZ. Something was going on there

This was big in animation and for a while Dreamworks would make a copy of Disney/Pixar's next film out of spite. You had the two ant movies of 1998, A Bug's Life & Antz, the two Mesoamerican comedies of 2000, The Emperor's New Groove & The Road to El Dorado, the two fish movies of 2003-2004, Finding Nemo & Shark Tale. Then there's the absolute golden age of this trend, the "these two endangered animals MUST FUCK" genre of 2010-2011, where Alpha and Omega and Rio proved strong enough to kill off Pixar's endangered animal fuck fest movie, Newt.

The peak moment for this whole thing, though, was March 1990, where two films about a dance craze called the Lambada (in the US, it was a mostly manufactured attempt at a craze, and by then people were already questioning its true reach; it was a huge hit in Europe but never hit the top 40 in America - or even the top 20 dance songs) came out on the same day
