the trailer looked like the most reddit thing I've ever seen
Ugly lead
Considering I haven’t heard of this movie until just now I’m gonna go ahead and say poor marketing.
this
this
the reasons OP listed is why it wasn't marketed
it's self fulfilled prophecy
>doesnt leave the house
>has 5 different ad blockers
yeah its poor marketing
wow it was probably a bad idea to hinge the success of this movie on those 3 anons
If your entire marketing campaign is banner ads and word of mouth, then yes, it's shit marketing
Most people don’t leave the house as much anymore and use ad blockers. I was aware of shit I never bothered watching at all like Rebel Moon, Fallout, etc. You are unironically moronic if you think this shit had any marketing budget at all
probably the decision to cast mega israelite h jon benjamin as the voice over, his voice is just grating and annoying such a terrible choice to make bobs burgers the lead’s internal monologue.
Bill Skarsgard originally gave the voiceover before it got replaced by Bob’s Burgers lmao
Found the trailer with Skarsgard’s voiceover on DailyMotion
No Bob’s Burgers here
https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x8mu33m
still not great, but much better than benjamin
Agreed, I remember hearing they changed it because the director was a major fanboy of Benjamin and thought the other voiceover was too serious
Brendan, Mellisa come over here. I need you to go down to the gas station and get me a beer. Do you have any money? I’m going to write a note for you to give to the cashier so he knows it’s not for you.
He doesn't really sound like what I would think a character like Archer would.
this unironically turned me off completely from the movie
I would say advertising, I've never heard of it before.
It looked too silly, like a Deadpool movie.
Action scenes like very spinny kung fu and the gimmick seemed Reddit. Might give it a try then if it's not actually bait and switch or strong womeme.
I can’t understand what the frick was going through the director’s head. The fight choreography looked top-notch, but it was almost completely obscured by having the camera crew have a gran mal seizure during every fight scene.
And it was one twist away from pure kino.
MY big tweeest:
Bring all that foreshadowing together at the close of the movie - all that stuff like everything being scripted and them “controlling the narrative.” Should have ended with the Shaman revealing that this is how the Regime always changes hands - with the Resistance *becoming* the Regime, and thereby explaining why Famke’s character would be beloved by anyone. Then have the siblings depart from the narrative by cooperating, killing the Shaman, and then choosing to simply walk away without assuming power.[spoiler]
If you did that, you could cut to a boardroom where we find that the *real* power was Frosty Puffs all along.[/spoiler]
It feels like a Hong Kong movie made by Redditors.
>Directed by Sam Raimi
Ya, I'll watch. First I've ever heard of this movie though. It looks like an action movie for the Bullet Train crowd.
it wasnt directed by sam raimi where did you get that idea
Raimi produced the movie, the actual director is a literal who
I didn't pay close enough attention
Can't be worse than The Beekeeper.
well it has the worst title of all time, for one
Wait yeah, why isn't it Boy Beats World?
Dumb title.
>biggest-budgeted film to ever come out of South Africa
What exactly does that mean? Monster Hunter was made in South Africa for $60 million. Am I supposed to believe a first-time director whose movie was given next to zero promotional push (despite not awful reviews), got more than that?
made in south africa and made by south africa is not the same
It was kino but I am not paying $25 to sit in a dark room with texting teens and whooping Black folk.
t. watched the cam rip
>I am not paying $25 to sit in a dark room with texting teens and whooping Black folk.
I heard a lot of people say the theaters were nearly empty during the screenings
There is always some homosexual with a mobile phone with the highest brightness ever recorded in human history or some fat frick with an endless amount of chips or some prostitute who just can’t shut the frick up.
I hate going to the theatre. It makes me feel like going postal.
the camrip had dogshit lighting and muffled audio
it also cut off some scenes like the post credits scene
I will enjoy that when I get it on dvd.
bro it looks like shit
It was pretty good, has no Black folk as main characters and the twist at the end was a genuine surprise that caught me off guard
INSERT CRAZY ACTION MONTAGE! XD
>...Coming out of South Africa
Americans don't watch foreign shit
just feels like another version of this
>Motion Sickness: The Movie.
You are weak. Try the 60fps interpolated version that exists in the pirate sphere if you want real motion sickness
If you're a fricking baby. Hardcore Henry kicked ass. I really wish we could get a sequel.
Sounds kino, I'm going to watch it then
>FIRST PERSON LOOTER SHOOTER: TEENAGE MURDER HOBO 1
hard pass
reddit garbage
Nobody wants to watch timmies anymore
Dune 2, starring Timothy Chamalet, is literally the highest grossing movie of the year.
That's a powerful israelite
>2 white dudes in the brown sea
Doesn’t say much
>So why did it flop?
Seems the studio forgot what marketing is. Never even heard of this.
I only knew about it cause some anon posted the trailer here.
I have no idea why this charisma black hole gets lead roles. He was fricking awful in the northman
>He was fricking awful in the northman
That was Alexander. This is Bill we are talking about, the clown brother.
The Northman is KINO
the entire first act is kino.
This movie was awesome. What is wrong with you people.
stopping was the agenda. seeing a flat female stomachs triggers your BREEDing insticts, so stomaches must be covered up as part of the depopulation agenda.
I only found out this existed when a shitty camrip was released, like 2-3 days ago.
maybe the production and distribution companies could have considered telling someone this movie was going to be in theaters?
just an idea, I'm not a professional, what do I know
I thought that was a Flintstones remake from the thumbnail.
What flopped? Sorry I aint reading ant sized font about that nobody
What's the verdict on this movie? From the trailer it looks like something that is either really good or really bad.
Good! Grug like movie!
Guns Akimbo 2.
is it THAT bad? jesus
I was going to watch it, now I don't think I want to anymore
From the trailer alone. Haven't seen this one.
this is the 2nd time I have ever heard of this movie and the first time was in another thread today when someone mentioned the title
Never heard of this movie. Hollywood marketing makes or breaks movies. It's not hard for them to actively sabotage movies so they can go to someone else and say ''see? no one wants to see white people in movies'' while they astroturf the latest Black person slop
>no one wants to see white people in movies'' while they astroturf the latest Black person slop
I guess Challengers does exist
Everybody hates Bill now for doing the Crow remake.
There's been like 7 Crow movies, no one cares about that franchise anymore.
If Bill's Crow was a sequel everyone would be like "oh, another shit sequel", but it's a remake of the first one, that's sacrilegious.
Kino I will watch that too
i saw more advertising for the remake than for this movie
I don't see regular movies in the movie theater anymore. Only something that warrants a giant screen and the added cost(Dune 2, Top Gun, Avatar, Godzilla X Kong) . This will be on streaming in a few weeks probably.
>not a single pic of the (alleged) tummy
Didn't know this board got merged with /lgbt/
that "girl" has a face like a grandma, is this the power of south africa?
>white male lead
>flops
same thing happened with The Northman.
maybe the Skaarsgard boys aren't leading men material?
I thought Bill did great as the lead tbh
Wasn’t The Northman also barely marketed?
no idea, I only know about new movies when they are shilled here or a torrent comes out.
It had like 1 premiere event. Did he even do junkets, magazine interviews? There was NO promo.
>Did he even do junkets, magazine interviews?
Just went to one premiere
is this moot?
imagine him playing moot in a biopic
Sabotaged by ~~*them*~~.
>south africa
>white
Saw it last night, it was fun.
>So why did it flop?
I heard it was advertised through YouTube ads, commercials during NBA playoffs, and billboards. Dafaq?
This movie was hot garbage. It would've been great if he was just deaf, speechless, and thoughtless.
