Did IT save the horror genre?
No, The VVitch did
No, Annabelle Creation did
All the horror movies released this year did extremely well.
Dubs and my farts smell like rotten eggs till Friday and OP dies next Tuesday
No, Evil Dead di... that was 4 years ago.
>>87654802
grossing $14 million on a $12 million budget (excluding marketing) is extremely well?
>>87652517
I really quaked in my boots.
>>87655013
why is it only this scene being posted and no other scene? honestly curious. i havent seen the film yet
>>87654802
Only Annabelle 2, Get Out and IT
>>87655051
Because people think the camera stabilization is bad, even though it's really not and they're all blowing it out of porpotion
It's likely just like 1-2 guys posting it everywhere who hated the movie and want to make it look bad
>>87655095
which ones bombed? was blair witch this year?
>>87655051
People just haven't bothered making many gifs/webms of this shit show yet.
Waiting for high quality cams/leaks.
>>87655051
Because it's the only scene you can portray as bad by taking it out of context. The whole movie was pretty good
It's not scary so much as disturbing and unsettling
>>87655156
The camera stabilization IS bad. It makes the lunges pennywise do laughable
>>87652517
In the books they had a giant pre-pubesent orgy with the one female character. And they didn't add it into the movie, This is why I hate movie adaptation. If your gonna do a film based on a book, put everything in (Even if it is condensed) I don't want care if it is "Publicly correct" ITS AN IMPORTANT PART OF THE BOOK GOD DAMN IT! When a book is converted into a film, they should put every important event into it, but no, because they didnt want to show it. YOU COULD JUST IMPLY IT!
>mfw when they didn't show that in the film
>>87655156
I guarantee they haven't seen but otherwise you're right. /tv/ has the most determined shitposters in all of 4chan.
>>87655238
the scene was bad in context as well
>>87655300
They didn't show the Ritual of Chüd or Maturin either. Why aren't you complaining about that, shitposter?
>>87655328
>>87655294
The stabilisation is fine in my opinion. It's just a weirdly funny scene.
>>87655095
Was Get out a horror film? I thought it was more of a thriller
>>87655396
No, it isn't
>>87655396
Why?
>>87655051
Because the rest of the movie is kino so contrarians have to settle with "weird looking on a webm". Please consider this is the third time they get BTFO this year after Wonder Woman and Homecoming, so just play along, they need this more than us
>>87652671
The only thing scary about that was how bored I was.
>>87655597
I think its more Film level than Kino, I think that the effects are good, but the story and depth of character is rather lacklustre, however it is pleasing to the eye, and gave me a few frights.
>>87655904
The comfy factor pushes it to kino IMO, Skasgard, Bev, Richie and Eddie are all too good for merely Film status
>>87655974
You are actually right, the comfy-ness is apparent and the child actors were rather good (Even if they had a bad script), If you look over the fact that it is playing to the 80s nostalgia trend it is rather kino. The best part of it was Skasgrad though, his acting is beautiful.
>>87652517
Its got no right being as good as it is
>when shills go into buzzword overload
>>87656122
I said this word by word coming out of the theater. Second part is going to be shit almost for sure though
>>87656190
Yeah maybe. I looked at all the actors and watched the trailers, got practically dragged along to it. It was miles better than I was expecting, and now I'm positive it's not by design but by accident, just from reading interviews.
>>87656190
It certainly won't have the charm of the first. Everyone likes the Goonies appeal of kids riding around on bikes and having adventures.
>>87656190
Maybe I should see it again. My theater experience was awful people kept laughing for minutes and yelling over dialogue
>>87656189
>shills
>buzzword
The irony
>>87655406
Because he didn't actually read the books. He just read the excerpt of the sex scene posted here and went on a pedo rant because it wasn't in a major mainstream hollywood movie.
>>87655465
Pennywise being completely serious while dancing for starters
there's nothing scary about that, it looks fucking ridiculous. At least if he was laughing while doing it would've made the scene much better
>>87655238
This, the movie was pretty solid, fucking Autists just wanna get a rise out of people.
>>87652517
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I was laughing throughout the entire movie when I saw it in theaters. I only jumped once or twice throughout the whole film. Do I just have a weird definition of scary or do some of you anons agree with me?
Yeah horror movies in recent years have been lame as fuck and just felt dumb, I mean obviously this movie was dumb too but it was enjoyable dumb while other horrors were unintentionally dumb and eye-roll evoking.
I hope this encourages directors to make their horror movies more fun and weird.
No. The Horror genre will remain dead forever since it has little-to-nothing new or interesting that hasn't been done.
>>87655013
IF YA WANNA BE A VILLAIN NUMBER 1
>>87660505
YOUVE GOTTA GET CANCER OF THE LUNG
>>87652517
If it was released as PG13 - yes.
No, it just further destroyed this board.
>>87655013

>>87657192
>>87655406
>>87655300
That's a stupid fucking part anyway. It WASN'T an important plot point and it was just in there to further character development for Beth. It really made no sense to be honest.
>Oh no. We're lost! We can only find our way out if we keep our bond strong.
>ButHowDoDat.gif?
>I know! I'll fuck all the boys, one by one, and then we'll all be fuck buddies and be bonded and shit!
>Cum on bois. Fuck me in dis dirty sewer. Quit cryin n do et.
Fucking stupid. I'm all for creative freedom, but kids just don't think like this. And it doesn't really have a place in the novel. They could have just said "They freaked out at first but then began to remember their way out." And it would have done the trick. Stupid fucking scene and S.K. was probably coked out of his mind when he wrote that part.
>>87661791
I thought the whole point was for them to lose their virginity and become emboldened because of it?
what was a good horror movie last yearr?
>>87661915
The one which helped me live deliciously.
>>87655904
I thought, of all things, the characters were some of the best elements. While I absolutely did enjoy the movie, the main issue I had with it was mood transitions. Like some scenes they'd be nearly dead, then the next they'd be acting like nothing happened. Like, a rock war between two groups of kids not two minutes after one of them saw Pennywise eating a child's arm. An actual human being would think "Fuck the rock war and these bullies, what the fuck was that clown thing?"
>>87652517
>Unsettling thing happens
>DUUUUUUUUUN
No
>>87655294
I THINK it's supposed to be laughable. That movie was all over the place tone-wise, that's why it's so hard to pin point what the fuck this shot was supposed to evoke.
>>87655619
Good. Horror is not supposed to be fast eddited and loud. Horror is by definition a slow and atmospheric genre. IT isn't horror.
>>87661870
No. It was purely to bring the group closer together because their bond was breaking. The only way they made it to IT's lair is due to their bond, in some weird magical fantasy bullshit way. So, in order to find their way out, they had to strengthen their bond again.
By gangbanging Beth.
Thank you, Mr. King. Fine writing. You were totally sober writing that. I guarantee it.
>>87661969
CLANG
>>87655396
Nah, it made me feel something (not sure what) which is better than most movies can do.
>>87662021
Is it specifically the gangbanging aspect that is the problem?
Would it have been better if they all gave each other blowjobs or made a train?
>>87662180
Or by not having that dumb "bond" aspect in the first place. If you think that's good writing and you're on this board, well...
>I have bad news for you.
>>87662244
When did I say that it was good writing?
Also, grats on the digits.
>>87655464
>>87655013
it was a good movie but come on, this was a fucking terrible scene, just look at it
>>87662021
>beth
>>87662428
I am. Shits still good mayne. Watch the movie
>>87652671
This, it revived the genre. No studio would've agreed to make a serious horror movie about an alien if it wasn't for the VVitch. Horror movies had gobe the route of cheap jumpscares and stupid demon stories.
>>87655095
Wasn't Get Out based on a true story?
>>87652517
Has it really been fucking struggling? It's been one decent surprise hit surrounded by straight-to-video shit for decades.
>>87655013
When he started dancing I threw my popcorn 30 feet in the air and sharted out my ass
>>87662007
Lake Mungo was slow and spooky, VVItch was boring
>>87655156
The stabilization is pretty bad and dumb to me, but I loved the movie.
did anyone else notice the librarian staring in the background in the library scene? is there anything else I didn't notice in the film?
>>87652517
no, it follows did
>>87663424
I noticed it too, thought it was going to be IT. Instead we got 'EGG BOY'. Also, early on in the film, the tv is talking about floating (before the Henry part)
>>87663642
I love the eggboy part. That and the projector scene made me jump
>Cary Fukunaga ties Beverly’s anxiety about her own sexual maturation to her sexual assault at the hands of her father, and her fear of both these things to the bathroom itself. When she’s not with the Losers’ Club, we see Beverly almost entirely in bathrooms. We meet her being bullied in the school bathroom. Her father assaults her in the bathroom at her house, and it’s there that she cuts her hair to try to ward off his sexual attentions. She’s first threatened and later abducted by It in the same bathroom, and it’s this bathroom that It covers in blood — itself a metaphor for menstruation.
>Of all the scenes from the book that Fukunafa chose to show in detail, it feels highly significant that he chose this one. The “boys cleaning” montage isn’t sexy or fun or exciting; it’s slow, deliberate, grimy work. But then, there’s nothing sexy, fun, or exciting about believing and supporting women. Far too often, women are disbelieved and undermined when they attempt to report their own sexual assaults, and are routinely ridiculed and harassed when they speak out about their own experiences with sexism and misogyny in general.
BRAVO FUKUNAGA, BRAVO!
>>87663872
What a fucking cuck.
I believe people who give me reason to believe them.
>>87652517
IT saved "kids adventure" movie not "horror"
>>87654802
I p lol
>>87652517
You tell me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SpnWwqwwkTU
>>87652517
MORE LIKE "SH"IT
>>87655619
>needs more BWOOOOMMM jump scares
You're a fucking moron.
>>87663642
>Also, early on in the film, the tv is talking about floating
I also heard something like, "The sewer is a fun place to play with all your friends!"
>>8766423
>>87663642
Yeah I seem to remember the TV talking about stuff before they happened in the movie
>>87655013
Has anyone un-stabilized this? I'm curious how it would look.
>>87652517
Yes. It proved morons will go for dull movies with lame jump scares and cgi monsters, no creepiness, no character, almost no gore...
It's not a horror movie. It's a dark fantasy coming of age adventure movie with elements of horror.
>>87652517
Yes He did
>>87664519
>>87664581
Is he wearing lipstick?
>>87656333
>indians post on this board
>>87654802
Performed well =/= is actually a well written and subtly scary horror that creeps on you with a slow burn
>>87655159
Rings underperformed and killed a Friday the 13th reboot. Resident Evil The Final Chapter as well, but it was surprisingly saved by China so a franchise reboot is coming.
Anyway if WB ever wanted to kickstart huge buzz for Justice League Dark/Hellblazer/John Constantine, the Conjuring/It craze is a now or never.
>>87664653
He just has well moisturised lips and good blood flow
>>87662896
Yes but Hollywood whitewashed 90% of the cast
>>87652517

>>87663872
I thought the hair cutting was a self harm thing, know a girl who would cut herself and cut her hair instead sometimes since its a similar impulse
>did a generic jumpscare movie with some stephen king elements save the horror genre?
no
>>87652517
You tell me?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7i3hG79hR0c
>>87655013
Is this real?
>>87666960
It's just fantasy, caught in a landslide, no, escape from reality.
>>87654802
horror movies and disney movies are the only movies that still turn a prophet
>>87664187
Except the vvitch is literally boredom incarnate
the only unsettling and scary parts are the beginning when the witch is pulping the baby, and later when she's seen next to the farm animals at night
>>87655013
WHEN YOU'RE RIIIIIIIIIPE, YOU'LL BLEED OUT OF CONTROL, BLEED OUT OF CONTROL
>>87652517
Was it good?
By the trailers I though they were just turning a classic into a generic horror flick.
Or did they just play it up to look generic so teens would go see it?
>>87662180
The problem is that somehow, their bond was breaking even though they just defeated a cosmic horror with the power of their bondsm you'd think something like that would strengthen it even more
It sucked. I'm not surprised /tv/ liked it. This is the same board that called the new James Gray movie boring cause "der wernt no splosions". You all have shit taste in horror and a small dedicated shit posting percentage of you only like it cause you're wannabe kid fuckers. Pedo plebs.
>>87652671
>this
Cabin in he woods, drag me 2 he'll, new Blair witch, get out,
All horror has quality tho. Like troll2, etc.
It's not a normie genre, so I don't understand how casuals can think it dies out, it's usually every two years something cool comes out.
>>87667310
It's a generic horrr flickBANG, woah did I get you there anon with my le scary interruptiBANG, haha I got you again. That's this movie. It's average, but it's hype is making me hate it more than I should.
>>87655013
Even the character becomes less scared after he starts dancing
>>87667310
The part with the kids is great and the horror parts would have been good if it didn't fall for modern horror conventions like "obnoxious loud noises that tell you when you need to be scared" The projector scene would have been great if it weren't for that
>>87658868
>sin counter: 100
>>87667513
>>87667451
So as I expected, oh well, like all of the other horror movies that got shitty remakes there'll always be the old one to go back to.
>>87664324
That's how it looks in the movie. The did it in other scenes too.
>>87652517
I knew you stupid faggots would get this wrong.
>"herr derr nu-It is soooo much better than Tim Curry's It"
WRONG
nu-It is:
>not scary
>has no creepy, sarcastic personality
>has none of the "initial charm" that made the Tim Curry one so effective
>barely speaks
>when he does speak I could hardly understand what he was saying
>Tim Curry standing on the side of the road holding a few balloons was scarier than nu-It eating a bloody arm
I knew you numale faggots would get it wrong again.
>>87661962
REMOVE
>>87667667
What people don't understand about IT, it's not a horror story, it's a coming of age story with a ton of gore and horror elements, the miniseries wasn't fucking scary at all unless you saw it when you were 6 and you had an irrational fear of clowns, werewolves and mummies all at the same time
>>87667667
It (2017) wasn't good.
The characters were witty and endearing.
Pennywise fucking sucked tho, lame ass jump scares, lame ass designs, lame ass scenes.
He didn't even do any clown shit, and showed hardly any joy in tormenting. His portrayal in the intro was only consistent with him pretending to bite that kids arm. The rest was the Hot Topic 'lol scary' shit.
Dumbass movie. With dumbass fans.
Faggots that are ruining /tv/ are the same faggots who thought It and spiderman Homecoming were good movies.
>>87663424
Ben gets all the ladies.
>>87667879
And sexual elements in the book that are almost totally gone from both adaptations
>>87655013
Someone needs to set this to Cotton Eyed Joe.
>>87668016
Why is this movie getting so many fans, anyways? They treat it like the uprising of horror genre, i.e Halloween or Chainsaw Massacre. It's just the same dull colored shit with a clown.
>>87667879
The original movie was supposed to be PG rated so kids could watch it. and it was still better than nu-IT.
>>87667879
And now we get this: a movie that tries to be scary with dull colors and removes the charm IT had to begin with. But I guess that's what happens when you follow Stephen King's book too close.
>>87659323
This is what happened in our theater too. No one screamed, but everyone laughed constantly.
>>87661791
>but kids just don't think like this.
Just admit you never had friends.
>>87652517
IT is surprisingly lovable when you don't try to be scared and just enjoy Pennywise's antics.
The only thing is the movie didn't have enough "real" moments. Like when Eddie goes to the old house and finds the leper, it looked way too fake. This could have been a good opportunity to show a realistic looking homeless man going after Eddie.
>>87652517
This is an open letter to Andres Muschietti
I knew how to write that without using spellcheck because I was writing his name often in the pre-release IT threads, shitting on him and the movie. I thought the movie would blow because it's a remake/reboot but I was blown away by this. I seriously want to congratulate Muschietti. I noticed a bunch of your decisions as a director and I would think "damn, nice". My only gripe would be the amount of headshots during the rock fight. A decent sized rock to the dome would drop a person. Otherwise a perfect movie - I mean that.
I'm pretty sure he or someone from his firm will read this, so please do relay it and deliver his response somehow. It isn't satire or a troll effort.
>>87669685
Also the fat kid gets cut up a few times and recovers fairly fast
>>87655013
when that happened my falcon went crazy, took off toward the screen and started maniacally clawing it, thankfully my theater has falcon insurance.
I miss slashers.
>tfw we will never have another slasher like Scream again
>>87669545
>The only thing is the movie didn't have enough "real" moments
I know what you mean, I was hoping Ben would see It imitating his Dad
>>87655619
You're just dumb tbqh.
