Chris Evans looks so bored on this poster for “Red One”. That might explain why the movie has a 30% score on Rotten Tomatoes.

(Come to think of it, Dwayne, JK, and Lucy looked bored too.)

“Slayers” is a 2022 vampire film where Van Helsing (Thomas Jane) seeks to avenge the death of his daughter by a clan of vampires led by Malin Akerman (Silker Spectre in “Watchmen” - 2009). The movie was billed as a comedy. What’s worse? A stake to the heart or a 22% score at Rotten Tomatoes.

The last Halloween movie I saw was “Halloween H20: 20 Years Later” (1998). I’m not in particular a fan of the series but it billed itself as the final resolution to the story. And Laurie (Jamie Lee Curtis) chops Myers’ head off with an axe… so it seemed conclusive.

WRONG!

There have been SIX MORE SEQUELS, including “Halloween Ends” (2022).

Fooled me once Universal! But I won’t take the bait. Is there really an audience for these constant remakes, reboots, reimagining of the same story over any over?!? Is this really the END?

As you can see from the title of Variety’s review… NOT REALLY. (Link below)

WTF?!?

This 13th movie is the series has a 43% ROTTEN score at Rotten Tomatoes. If there is a gawd, please drive a stake through Michael Myers heart, chop off his head and limbs, and desolve the remains in acid so Universal never have to make another remake!

This chart is from Wikipedia:

‘Halloween Ends’ Review: Michael Myers Gets a Disciple, and Jamie Lee Curtis Mopes, as the Series Ends…But Not Really (Rinse, Slash, Repeat)

Chris-as-the-appropriated-spirit-of-Michael-Myers is a half-interesting, half-baked idea, one that doesn’t exactly inspire terror.

BLOOFER LADY #11

Mel Brooks’ “Dracula: Dead and Loving It” has its moments but it isn’t a classic like “Young Frankenstein”. It has a rather anemic 11% score at Rotten Tomatoes!

Lysette Anthony plays Lucy Westenra with an emphasis on her heaving breast.

Anthony, by the way, played the witch Angelique in the 1991 revival of “Dark Shadows”.

“Harold and the Purple Crayon” has a 28% score at Rotten Tomatoes with 38 reviews. Typically a new release will have at least 100 reviews, so even the critics didn’t want to see it.

A common theme in the reviews is that it’s a movie about imagination that doesn’t have any.

This quote from one of the reviews sums up my reaction to the trailer:

“Levi relies on the same shtick he used in two Shazam movies, playing the clueless man-child with incredible powers, but the routine is getting old.”

Zachary Levi’s performance is cringe worthy.

Nic Cage’s name has become synonymous with shitty movies. The article at the link below lists 10 of his worst. But believe it or not, the list could have been far longer. According to Rotten Tomatoes, Nicolas Cage has made 35 movies with a Rotten Score since 2010

10 Worst Nicolas Cage Movies of All Time, Ranked

Nicolas Cage has starred in countless movies, so naturally, a great many of them - like Left Behind and The Wicker Man - aren't particularly

[silveragelovechild]

According to Rotten Tomatoes:

Cage has forty (24) film credit for the last 10 years.

Twenty-four (24) of those have Rotten score.

That’s a lot of shitty movies.

It also means he finally paid off his back taxes.

NINE REASONS TO AVOID “ROBIN HOOD”

After watching “Kingsman2” Im losing interest in Taron Egerton.

I’m not a fan of Jamie Fox.

I’m tired of Ben Mendelsohn playing the same villain over and over.

Oddly enough the visible machine stitching on Egerton’s costume in the poster bugs me - Robin Hood is set in the 14th century; sewing machine were invented four hundred years later.

If you are going to modernize a classic story, set it in modern times - don’t use a distracting mishmash.

A 17% score at Rotten Tomatoes.

I’ve got better things to do with my time.

Not another retelling if Robin Hood!

Did I mention I’m not a fan of Jamie Fox?
