The Last Person to Post Wins - Yamask

Fucking terrible man.

It has all the right looks, all amazing actors.. and the movie is fucking terrible dogshit. Disappointing doesn't even describe my feelings about it.

Ah pretty much what I’ve heard so far then. Except this one guy who tried to defend it because it’s called “Paradox” and if you look at it that way it doesn’t have to make sense.

So basically if I make a film and name it This Is Shit, then it’s a good film even if it’s a terrible piece of shit.

That doesn't make any sense, what the fuck. Does he know what a paradox is? And that even a paradox has a certain set of rules/laws?
What a dipshit.

Look, The Emoji Movie was a terrible piece of shit marketing stunt. But that's what it was intended as, that is how I see it. So in that view-point, it's definitely a 10/10 movie.

But the point of The Cloverfield Paradox is something else, it's supposed to teach us more about the Monster and stuff that happened, and in some way it does.
In the end it's just an one-location spacer horror 'slasher' that has all the right looks but fails even more dramatically than the likes of I Still Know What You Did Last Summer. Prometheus was the same, but at least that one had some entertainment value to it, besides it looks.

This movie is a perfect example that a high budget, and amazing actors don't make a movie. The writers do (also the director, but I don't know the guy).

I won't recommend the movie to anyone, but I would still recommend the franchise. This teaches us something more about it, but read the plot-outlines instead. Don't watch the movie.

Wait a second
Someone cheated to win this thread ?
How did they do it
Spams aren't allowed right ?

Yeah, but wasn’t this film a stand-alone film (The God Particle or something?) before Netflix bought it and slapped a Cloverfield-sticker on it, though? Which would make sense as to why the way it explains the monster is good-ish, but the rest is shit. I read that they re-wrote the script to incorporate the Cloverfield story into a totally unrelated script.

This was the case for 10 Cloverfield Lane as well though I think, and that one was pretty good imo, so I guess they just fucked it up with this one.

Edit: Okay, so Netflix didn’t slap the Cloverfield sticker on it, it was Bad Robot themselves, but the rest was right, it seems.

You shouldn't be. But why are you not interested?
I feel a lot of people will miss out on this for the wrong reasons. No "actual" marketing is one of them.
While dropping a movie out of nowhere is genius marketing, at that, no one will know if they're not on top of things.

10 Cloverfield Lane is an excellent movie. Best of the three by far. Although I consider the original movie a great one too.

I cheated one time to not win.

Some have cheated by deleting an earlier post in the thread if they get #1501, bumping them back to #1500. Stuff like that.

All the films are somewhat, stand-alone. It's an anthology series, it still is. The God Particle was always a rumored name, never officially confirmed to actually be the name. Seeing as they kept basically everything about the movie a secret, the name would be too.

But I don't understand the monster part? Good-ish? As in explaining what 'side' the monster is on or what? Because the movie let's you know how the monster got here, somewhat, but not really. In the end the movie doesn't explain jack-shit..

When there would actual fights break out over winning this shit.

Well that's not nice

Everyone should play fair and square and congratulate the winner

Winning this thread is pretty hard for some people. But I don't think it'll result in actual virtual fight

 

[Asako]

There should be an award for the cheaters .

There is. They get green and red-colored names.

Nepotism and such.

 

[Elusia]

Cheaters shouldn't get anything

Out of nowhere? Well kinda. Well, Paradox was bounced from studio to another and there where arguments with the director and producers about cuts to be made so it was a mystery if the film was ever gonna be published until netflix was rumored to buy it. It has been on the production radar quite awhile, so it wasn't really out of nowhere. And then again, it was dropped out without release date or any marketing kinda randomly during Superbowl. So in that sense, out of nowhere.

But the production problems already kinda killed all my hopes for it.

Original Cloverfield was quite fine.

That's not a reward since it's not prior to the cheating '-'

Ust went no mercy on Raven when she cheated “as a joke” a while back. Can’t remember how long ago. She got pissed and said she’d never post in these threads again or something like that.

I agree though, cheating is just being a douche even if you do it “as a joke”. More work for the mods, too. Disrespectful.

In that sense, out of nowhere. Yes. Marketing-wise there wasn't anything besides the very obscure viral marketing, that even I missed at times.
Behind-the-scenes stuff doesn't really count as marketing, imo.

Yeah, those issues are in large numbers these days, haunting all the big and small studios. Too many people behind the scenes that want to get involved, want to tell them what to do. Which usually ends in forced reshoots/cuts and a shit movie.

 

[Farfalla]

It's kinda pointless as well since the deleted posts won't just vanish lmao.

It is. Ya'll are covering it up.

I KNOW IT!

Damn.... that's one... story

But glad you agree. Let's all be friendly with the rules.
