Seriously, outside of dumb white liberals, who is the audience for this movie?

Nobody hate watched Hillbilly Elegy?
I guess we have enough poor whites on the board that no one wants to watch Coastal Elite Hollywood's piss poor depiction of Appalachia.

I thought Amy Adams and Glenn Close were both very good but the movie itself didn't really move me that much. Typical Hollywood Oscar bait.
I still might do it. I read Amy Adams is terrible in it with a Cletus the slack jawed yokel voice and I don't know if I want to see that. I'm surprised it's only 115 minutes. That's still long but these type of melodrama usually run 140 to 160 minutes.

Defensive Ron Howard: ‘You Try Making A Good Movie About Fucking Hillbillies’
LOS ANGELES—In response to widespread negative reviews of his recently released film, Hillbilly Elegy, defensive director Ron Howard told his critics Monday, “You try making a good movie about fucking hillbillies.” “I’d invite anyone who didn’t like my film to try creating something with actual...

Yeah, I actually like both actors but don’t see either as Wonka. Then again, I feel like that is a property I wouldn’t remake anyway so what do I know?

Yeah. I like those actors but didn’t we learn our lesson with the remake from ‘05/‘06ish? Why bother?

I don't mind the choices but Gene Wilder had great comedic chops/physical... flair that I don't think is easy to capture. I think Tom Holland could actually pull this role off but I think they'd be smart to try and age him up a little makeup wise.

OK, fine, guys. Maybe it is half horny. Timothee is a very attractive young man.

Read this earlier, and it’s very much worth reading. Kinda sad to see DeNiro is still slumming in this kind of thing, but then again “The War With Grandpa” came out not too long ago. I guess “The Irishman” caused me to forget how many shitty movies he had done before.Very interesting article on the world of poorly made action movies starring aging stars of the '80s/'90s. Didn't even know there was a modern version of Cannon Films.The King of the Geezer Teasers

I will now cede the floor to one of TSM's Xers to ramble about Cadillacs and Dinosaurs.

You have no idea how disappointed I am that this isn't an actual "Cadillacs and Dinosaurs" movie.

They could do F&F crossovers with just about any genre and it would probably make bank. Vin would be totally up for a Fast & Furious In King Arthur's Court film. Instead of nitrous, they just give their horses steroid injections to pull their chariots faster or whatever.
I'll also accept a slapstick It's A Fast, Fast, Fast, Fast & Furious World, too. The Rock would make an awesome Lennie Pike, but they'd probably throw him in as Slyvester.

Looks like a horror movie called Separation might be the dud of the week. The man behind it did "The Boy" (which wasn't that good but I actually didn't mind it) and "The Devil Inside" (which....no.) The other one not getting great reviews is Tom Clancy's Without Remorse, though I actually want to see that, as I hear the action scenes are good and I'm in the mood for a dumb action movie.

Indeed Separation was some hot trash for sure. I was at a loss at how inept this shit was. Some themes had potential, dolls becoming possessed (problem being we have no idea WHY or HOW they became possessed in the first place), a vengeful mother taking over as an evil spirit inside of the house (again, ZERO explanation), and a traumatized girl being able to communicate with said dolls and spirits (but again, why and how was not explained). All in all, this was a massively bad acted snorefest the first half which became laughably terrible in the second half. My gf and I routinely razzed all over this shit since we were the only ones in the theater, so at least it was an entertaining experience, but holy fuck, other than some impressive looking effects from the evil spirits/dolls, this had NOTHING going for it. So much could have been done with the dolls than what little was done with them. Everything felt almost like they rushed through this production at breakneck speed and didnt think to do any sort of re-write. That said, this probably was a case of too many cooks in the kitchen as I swear I saw 10 or more producers attached to this shit. What an epic failure, but at least an unintentionally humorous mess of a very unscary film.

My local movie theater seems to be openly acknowledging that The Hitman's Wife's Bodyguard is going to be a piece of garbage by only giving it one screening. I didn't even know it was a sequel till today.
I'm just glad Ryan Reynolds is going to his starring in absolutely awful looking movies roots after the success of Deadpool.

I'm not sure if I'll ever get used to Zachary Levi being a jacked dude. I'll always associate him with Chuck even though I doubt I watched more than an episode or two of that. I sure do miss the '00s, folks!

All I had to see was Kurt Warner's jersey and just noped that movie forever. Good on Warner for having his beliefs but I have no interest in seeing his story in movie form after hearing about it so much from 1999-2004. I do like that they are trying to make Mike Martz? the bad guy though (unless that's supposed to be Vermeil but Vermeil was way nicer and the actual HC of the Rams).

This week's duds seem to be Dear Evan Hansen (which had a trailer that made it look unintentionally disturbing in that the lead of the film, Benn Platt, was the lead in the Broadway show but is now a 29 year old man who looks older than that and is playing a teen) and The Starling (Melissa McCarthy's latest, which is a drama)
