I won’t be seeing it because I don’t connect with Ti West and because the 1984 one exists but just going by the marketing I think it’s fascinating that someone chose to do a dark gritty gothic horror reboot of source material that is uhhh dark gritty gothic horror
@checkervest it’s deeply unclear to me who this movie is meant for. johnny depp in silly prosthetics and a kooky font for the movie poster and the jokey moments in the trailers point to being a kids movie. the director and the jumpscares and horrifying ghost designs and overall sense of taking itself too seriously point toward an adult drama.
and then i remember i don’t care bc i am definitely not seeing it either way
@jepyang it’s so weird on so many levels
I feel like if your best effort at the tagline for the Ebenezer Scrooge movie is “before he was Scrooge, he was [Ebenezer]” you should take a nap and try again with a better one
