This is better than Weapons. Why wasn’t it talked about more?

I thought tv said it was trash

>>213721440 (OP)
It was alright. Nothing special.

I liked it. It was like a parody of the Final Destination films. And for a Stephen King adaptation it's probably one of the best since Shawshank Redemption.

>>213721468
/tv/ anons would step over their own mothers to call anything after 2005 trash

>>213721519
Life of Chuck was also kino but no one saw that

>>213721440 (OP)
I haven't seen it yet but you should know by now that you can't talk about movies or tv on here except to shit on it.

>>213721769
Life of Chuck was gay, anon. How many fucking 5 minute dance numbers does one movie need?

>>213722072
Fair, but even in regular life I barely heard anyone talk about it. Weapons was great IMO, but finally got around to watching this and it’s a blast.

>>213721440 (OP)
We were just talking about it on the previous /hor/ thread. It's a movie whose subtle humor and references to macabre but somewhat funny tropes seems to irritate viewers with literalist expectations.

>>213722125
Oh. I don't actually talk to people outside of my family and my dad doesn't like horror movies anymore so he would have been the only person I could have seen it with.

>>213721440 (OP)
Weapons was funny.
Monkey wasn't funny.
Weapons was scary.
Monkey wasn't scary.
Weapons had an interesting mystery.
Monkey didn't have an interesting mystery.

didn't disney stole the rights of the monkey using cymbals so they opted for drums

>>213722134
>subtle humor

did we watch the same movie? this shit is literally for midwits like all king sloppa.

>>213722254
This. The only attempt at humor was when the woman jumps into the water and instantly explodes, but who thinks thats funny?

>>213722254
We did but you were apparently filtered by the humor element, which is pervasive: the absurdity of the cartoonish deaths, the sermon and the ppl's reactions, the ending etc. It in fact filters midwits since the tongue in cheek factor requires a certain type of perception

>>213721440 (OP)
They made a Better Man animated movie?

>Weapons
Trash
>The Monkey
Trash

>>213722306
Me. Fuck you.

>>213722362
incompetence as absurdity isn't clever, schadenfreude is for slaves.
the movie sucks and you're a literal idiot.

>>213722362
>cartoonish deaths
>getting shot by a shotgun
WOAH this is deeeeeeeeeep and so absurd!

>>213722527
It is clever bc it doesn't take itself seriously, it addresses serious issues with the lightness that they sometimes requires.
Your spergout implies (not unpredictably) that you might have autism/low IQ or a very inexperience outlook. Try to expand your midwit expectations and flow with movies as they are

>>213722564
It is. There's a black humor to it and only ppl who think of movies as toy train parts wouldn't grasp it

>>213722578
stay mad, stay retarded

Great visceral kills
Funny dialogue
Straight forward and no filler

Was an awesome popcorn slasher

>>213721624
For me, it was stepping over your sisters cunt.

>>213721440 (OP)
>Why wasn’t it talked about more?
Because it's shit for cunts.
Total. American. Death.

QED

>Why wasn’t it talked about more?
It was widely discussed and mentioned throughout the internet. Were you hibernating?

>>213721468
It was meh. If the comedic aspects work for you you'll enjoy it but if the humor doesn't suit you it's a mess.

>>213722578
>it addresses serious issues
Retard.

>>213722190
i liked weapons quite a bit and that shit did NOT have an interesting mystery

>>213723002
Well, your autistic cluelessness is for you to deal with, anon. If both the inevitability/randomness of death and the complex nature of sibling rivalry and parenting don't seem serious to you that's a you problem.

I won't say it's better, but I laughed my ass off. Also I loved the weird faux retro aesthetic that blends the 70s when King was really getting into gear with the modern era. Really weird and trippy, somewhat dreamlike at times, but not over the top.

>>213723063
>autistic cluelessness
You think The Monkey "addresses serious issues". You're low IQ and should be embarrassed.

>>213723048
>town searching for 17 missing children
vs
>dude le epic monkey toy is heckin killing peoples!!

Why don't they kill all of the Americans?

>>213723101
>You think The Monkey "addresses serious issues".
Yes anon, I just listed them. Stop embarrassing yourself and make peace with what you don't know. Learn instead of fighting new information

I thought The Monkey and Weapons were both bretty good ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

>>213723414
You made confused plot based elements as somehow "address(ING) serious issues". Meanwhile, the connections you're making are superficial and shallow.

You're a fucking moron, lol. Imagine being pretentious about a splatter comedy based on Stephen King.

>>213723414
>DURR, THEY'RE BROTHERS WHO DON'T GET ALONG SO IT'S ADDRESSING THE SERIOUS ISSUE OF SIBLING RIVALRY
It's more that one brother is psychotic and the other is a wuss. This sets up the plot. They don't compete for attention from their mother, that dynamic is barely explored, and it's literally just good brother/bad brother.
>DURR, PEOPLE DIE AT RANDOM IN CRAZY WAYS SO IT'S ADDRESSING A SERIOUS ISSUE BECAUSE DEATH AND RANDOMNESS AND STUFF
Do you think the Final Destination movies are deep? Lol. Getting killed randomly is just the main horror element of the movie and it's done for laughs. It's not deep commentary on the human condition you absolute retard.
>LE PARENTING THOUGH
It's not parenting so much as it is the good brother learning to form relationships, dummy. The movie is a comedy and doesn't dwell on pretentious bullshit. The relationship is basically the good brother no longer being weary of human connection, monkey be damned, and accepting his role as a father.

You're a moron.

>Osgood Nepofaggot
nope
