Look at the bright side.  There's at least one movie coming out this year that's not a Marvel Movie. 

... pretty sure anyway...

Good Movies / Re: Recent Viewings, Part 2

M.10rda - The very first time I saw Super Fuzz there was a scene where the song from the ad for the "Candyland" board game was used. It was taken out from the 2 subsequent versions I saw, perhaps due to copyright issues.

Rider of the Skulls (El Charro de las Calaveras) (1965) - This was solid enough, I guess, but a little too cheap and hokey to recommend. I was definitely more impressed with the Ghosts of the Monastery or whatever it was called a few nights ago from 1934. That said, it does have it's charms. Also, Charro is not in this.

A guy who wears a black bandana over his face is the titular rider and he fights 3 different supernatural baddies: a wolf man, a vampire, and a headless horseman guy, the last one being the most impressive, but none of them being actually impressive. It's pretty much 3 episodes of a serial repackaged as a movie. There's an annoying comic relief coward guy and not nearly enough hot Mexican women.

I wanted to like it more than I did. Ultimately, it just doesn't have any sort of magic to it or enough crappiness to be so bad it's good. Imagine if you went to your backyard and made a Lone Ranger episode with your friends. That's what this is, basically.

3.75 /5

I think Frances McDormand is great in it, and I really enjoy Brad Pitt's performance. in fact it's the only film he's in apart from SE7EN that I rate him in.... I even enjoy Clooney here (although he plays an absolute douche so maybe that's why).

I'm enjoying not talking about BURN AFTER READING. we should not talk about it more often!

Bad Movies / Twisted Childhood Universe
Last post by HappyGilmore - July 20, 2026, 03:26:07 PM
Curious if anyone here has seen any of these films. There's been horror films based on characters now being in the public domain. The Popeye film is not included. Released so far:

Winnie The Pooh: Blood and Honey
Winnie The Pooh: Blood and Honey 2
Peter Pan's Neverland Nightmare
Bambi: The Reckoning
Pinocchio Unstrung.

Upcoming films include Poohniverse: Monsters Assemble, where they team up like the Avengers, as well as films based on Alice in Wonderland and Mary Poppins.

Peter Pan was good. Blood and Honey 2 was a better film than 1. Bambi was ok. Wasn't as bad as I expected.

But why unleash a chatbot on a little-trafficked forum? Usually the chatbots we see are trying to sell something.
