The Popeye film is not included.

It's the only one I'm mildly interested in watching.

this is the only one I've seen, and they really did nothing with it, other than hiring a big warehouse and making a random horror film... it feels like a rough 'demo' of a horror film.

I saw there was another one out on dvd already, POPEYE'S REVENGE... and just looking on imdb there are 2 more coming: POPEYE REQUIEM, and POPEYE: RESURRECTION.

(these guys are obviously studying my 'Words that sequels use in their titles...'  thread  )

Is it any "good"? I've seen the trailer. There's a different one based on the Grinch. But both of them are different producers.

It's always enjoyable when Pitt doesn't take himself seriously.

another film where he doesn't? just interested...

(literally just bought KALIFORNIA yesterday. no recollection of his performance or anything else in this film but I know I've seen it)

I've seen Winnie The Pooh: Blood and Honey, Winnie The Pooh: Blood and Honey 2, Peter Pan's Neverland Nightmare and Bambi: The Reckoning.

all of them but Bambi were trash to me

Bambi - 2/5

the others 0/5

I plan to see Pinocchio Unstrung

Sad. Fair enough though, but I thought Pan was the best one.

Haven't seen any and I think it was my thing, frankly - but I would watch Poohniverse: Monsters Assemble!

It sounds insane if they pull it off

Not seen any of those.

From what I read, only the 1929 Popeye character is in public domain, but with restrictions? All side characters like Olive and Bluto are not, or something. The "public domain" on Popeye & Co. seems kind of complicated.

Either way, they are obviously cash-grabs. I'm surprised The Asylum isn't all over these.

I found a conflicting report that Olive and her family are allowed, but not other characters just yet.

The Winnie the Pooh situation was similar. Which is why in the first we only had him, but the sequel had Piglet. The third can add Tigger, etc, because their public domain dates are later. And even with that, the producers have to avoid specific Disney creations, like Winnie in a red shirt, or Eeyore's color, etc.

Finally watched the Tom Cruise Mummy movie, and I can honestly say that out of all the mummy movies I've ever watched, this one has the most Tom Cruise in it.  The actress who plays the Mummy actually does a fairly good job and has a nice monster design, but she's got nothing script wise to work with.  Basically we have a scumbag unlikable hero that the figured the audience was just like automatically because he's Tom Cruise, despite the character having no redeeming value. We have a mummy who made a deal with the ultimate evil in order to gain the power to slit a baby's throat. She's revived in modern day with all sorts of super powers, and she wants to ... do something with a ritual... and Tom Cruise has to stop her because ... some reason probabaly. There's Monster Hunter SHIELD ran by the worst possible guy you could choose to put in charge of the operation. And Tom Cruise is trying to end his curse that does I don't know what because I have no idea why. And at the end of the movie he gains the powers of a mummy.

The whole thing feel like a two hour trailer for a series we never got... and like most trailers that means you get to see some cool scenes without anything that actually explains to you what's going on.
