Lol. Those films are supposed to be simple and stupid, "it follows." Is supposedly a "smart movie." But it sucked. Imo.
i don't mind simple, silly movies (recent example being Ant Man, which i found hilarious that you considered it too "childish"), but they have to be done right. stupid on the other hand, is not what a movie should be.
the premise of It Follows wasn't stupid (albeit pretty silly, but such a more original, unique idea these days that I'll cut it some slack), the execution was just poorly done in the 2nd half IMO.
Stupid might have been a little much in my post, as I had just finished watching it. I had high expectations and really wanted it to be good. Sadly it was a pretty big disappointment. IMO
Also Troll 2 was stupid and it was awesome. Lol
just for the record, i only gave It Follows a 6.5/10, so yeah we're pretty much in the same ballpark there lol
and yeah Troll 2 (and The Room, Samurai Cop, etc) are indeed stupid, but they aren't exactly what i meant. i was thinking more about the people who think they're the bees knees and keep lazily putting out insultingly unfunny pieces of s**t (think friedberg and seltzer, adam sandler (as of late), the wayans brothers (as of late), Larry the Cable Guy, etc). i understand humor is subjective, but give me a break. some of these guy's attempts at "humor" are revolting and painful.
Am I the only one who absolutely loves Jean-Claude Van Damme?
Kick boxer, Lion Heart, Cyborg, Timecop Bloodsport, anything he's in.
