    Sure, there seems to be way more than enough thrillers and horror movies, what is SORELY missing is DECENT BIG BUDGET COMEDY MOVIES, but they don’t seem to make them anymore.

        I really wanted to like it, but once you’ve seen the bit with the little girl [which was in the trailer] it goes downhill fast.

        Gave up on it pretty quick.

        Yeah I though it was decent, it exceeded my expectations at least, but it’s a reboot. I guess comedy movies just don’t rake in enough money.

    Why?

    Streaming is how movies are consumed now. Don’t fight it, lean into it.

    Also what is the logic of releasing a thriller on Valentine’s Day Weekend.

      I haven’t not heard of this movie, but I didn’t know it was in theaters and I have no idea what it’s about or if it’s worth the price of a ticket.

      So whatever they put into marketing, the result is “vaguely aware a movie exists.”

        I saw adds for this. Nothing about it looked remotely original and sure as shit not dealing with going to the theater for a Chris Hemsworth product.
