Movie pitch for War of the Worlds (2025)

[Jackdaw]

I knew it had to happen soon.
Ryan George's movie pitch video's are better than the movies.

After seeing that, is anyone brave enough to waste $20 going to see the film at the cinema to see if it really is that bad.

$20, that's pretty cheap... Last time I went to see a film, which was donkeys mind, it cost a fortune with all the treats and such.

Yeah, I know you can take your own, but I'm a lazy git, lol, and do accept that when they have you in, they have you.

Reminds me of the time when me and a few mates (8 of us) flew to Belfast for a long weekend on the drinky woo's.

On the Saturday morning, waiting for the pubs to open, we decided to go to the Titanic Museum, I was thirsty from the lake full of booze I got through on Friday, so went to nab a bottle of water from the shop inside, I asked if anyone wanted one, they all said aye.

£2 for a 500ml bottle... £16 in the total... SIXTEEN QUID... FOR WATER!!!

Couldnt believe mind, and all the way through the visit, all I could think of was "Sixteen pound man"!!!

Suffice to say, the rest of the gits were over the moon like, couldnt walk past a Sainsburys Local or similar without a "Here Dabz, 50p for a bottle of water in there... Get on it"

And they wonder why they cannot get bums on seats in such places like cinemas, no sod can afford it, and if they can, most cannot justify it.

it's on Amazon Prime. I'm not sure it's ever seen a cinema and nor should it.

It's garbage.

I don't have a television (since 2008 - it was still analogue only) but...my understanding is that as the number of channels and such have multiplied the amount of sh!te has too. We've got a tonne more content but probably about as much quality a there was before in total.

[Dabzy]

The couple of terrible films I've watched were both Will Smith... I am Legend, and After Earth.

Dog pap...

I am Legend... After bleeting on sending a message out through the wireless telling whoever is that there that he can provide food, water and safety, when someone (or two in that case, the wifey and the little girl), the character goes into a steaming huff.

But then, it was all over when the dog died... The dog was about the best thing in the film.

Then After Earth... Utter turdles, Will smith, sat, and his son running about with a face like he was trying to keep a good shite in, pointless film with about as much depth as an evaporated puddle.

But, the last film I did enjoy of auld Willies was In Pursuit Of Happyness, it's not my type of film, but it always helps when it's based on a true story for me, and it was, and as such, a good watch... A blokey on the bottom pulling himself round and making it... I like that like!

Speaking of Will Smith, I put Karate Kid on the other day, but it turned out to be the Jaden Smith remake so I didn't bother.

I don't like him. I'm glad that kid did him over.

[Steve Elliott]

The Pursuit Of Happyness is a really good film.

Yeah that so called karate kid film, wasn't.

I'm (sadomasochistic?) intrigued to see how it compares to "The Cloverfield Paradox" - which has currently topped my "absolute travestyt of a movie" list for some years now...

I really enjoy Ryan George's content.

I watched Jurassic Park: Rebirth on Saturday night, not the worst film ever it seems, but good god, I wouldnt class it even as pop corn fodder... Dreadful.

More holes in the script then a pair of miners pants, stupid scenerios that don't really make sense, and the fact the story is pretty much the original setup played out, but they tried to spin it on the future of that and it just didnt work.

CGI was hitty missy, yes, back in the day, the dino's were awe inspiring, especially the scene where the big arsed dino raised itself on it's hind leg to nibble a few leaves, awesome... They tried the same here when all them dinos just appeared from the grass... Total fail!

Oh, and product placement which was so obvious, they might as well of just put a few adverts in.

Cack

You could have saved your self some money and time by just watching this and had a good laugh.

@Jackdaw

That pretty much sums it up, especially the ending where the bloke with the flare looks like he's going to be scranned by the thing with a massive bonce of a forehead, I actually thought... "Did I nod off there and miss something?", so I rolled back... Nope!!!

Poor film, poorly written, poor direction, poor editing, it's got the lot!
