At this point I think people agree that Jesse P. Lemons is actually the better of the two actors, no? And I like Damon as an actor, but Jesse P. Lemons shreds.
Take this for what it's worth, but as someone who also didn't like INSIDE OUT and agreed with your criticisms, I thought INSIDE OUT 2 was a big upgrade. Riley's character is much more fleshed out, the external plot actually makes sense in a relatable way, and Anxiety is a terrific new character. Only downside is no Bing Bong (for obvious reasons, *sniff*).
(I would still say it's not as good as TURNING RED, though.)
- Two things I'll give The Fabulous Four: it doesn't have Diane Keaton, and as someone on Twitter pointed out, it must really chap Debra Messing's ass that Megan Mullaly is in a movie with Susan Sarandon.
- Smile did nothing for me - way too derivative of The Ring and It Follows - but I did like its "movie you watched at a middle school sleepover" vibe, and Kevin Bacon's daughter is a good actress. I'll watch the sequel when it hits streaming.
- Not only is Horizon a two-parter, it's potentially a four-parter, and the first part is THREE FUCKING HOURS.
- Speaking of Pete Hammond, a notorious poster-pull-quote huckster, Shawn Edwards, lives/works where I live (Kansas City). I've met him once, and attended a few events he's put on. He's actually pretty smart, funny, and knowledgeable. I can't say I wouldn't sell out the way he did.
Speak No Evil is a remake of a recent and horrifying and bleak AF foreign film. This remake looks pointless and neutered. Like Miley Cyrus covering GG Allin.
Always thought Dreamworks was going to be the first to take an “instigators” title. Young loner child in the Everglades discovers ancient magic that turns him into local animals? “INSTA-GATOR”, this fall. Rated PG for “rude humor”
The Twisters poster has to be the worst of the bunch. Why are the "twisters" catching on fire on the ground? Why does it look like the characters are giants running through a full grown corn field? Why does Glen Powell have Damian Lewis mouth syndrome.
I had to check to see which movie Smile 2 was a sequel to. I kind of liked the first one. Interesting concept, well acted. Not terribly stupid. Right up my alley. Don't need a second one, though.
Thought maybe it'd be a follow up to that 1975 Michael Ritchie movie about teen pageants, but it is not.
Jesse P. Lemons is such a dumb joke but it kills me every time. Thank you for sticking with it.
Ditto for Michael F. Assbender. Never stop.
I actually called him Michael F. Assbender years ago in a conversation with my mom and she stopped me and says, “Michael Fassbender?”
And I said yes and she laughed her ass off. Vince Mancini: mom approved!
It's definitely kinder than "Meth Damon"...

Yes, I'd have to agree. Doesn't have quite the body of work that Damon has (yet). Liked him in Black Mass, which was Departed-like.

“From the producers of” feels like the most empty selling point, especially considering it’s for Jurassic World.
"it character actor"
Is that an oxymoron? A character actor supports the lead--they ain't "It", they're next to "It", making "It" look good.
Why do I sound like Grandpa Simpson?
That knocking you hear at your door is a pissed off William Fichtner.
That man’s been trying to sell me on a pyramid scheme going on 25 years!
- Speak No Evil is this year's American Remake Of Foreign Horror Movie. Can you correctly guess the twist from the trailer? I did!

"If there’s one thing I feel like everyone knows, it’s how to love your mom."
It's certainly true in your case, Mancini.

*double checks with Joe Bob Briggs to see if this exists*

How else are you gonna get the all-important SPARKS?
