I HATE MODERN MOVIE TRAILERS

I HATE MODERN MOVIE TRAILERS

Even if I actually wind up liking the movie, like 90% of the trailers are THUMPTHUMPTHUMP jumpcutty pretentious nonsense and make the movies look like shit.

The only good that can come of this is the likely Screen Rant Movie Pitch treatment on Youtube.

    I’m not really sure why they went the isekai route.

    I have a good guess for what they were thinking. brrrrrrrrrrrr porky-point

    The plot in the games is the weakest point and the managed to make it worse.

    The plot in the games could have been fine for a movie if they just embraced it and launched from there, which works for most video game movies that actually do that.

    I guess they didn’t know how to make “tribal savages” relatable to Western audiences.

    There’s plenty of western players of Monster Hunter games. I think this was a self-inflicted injury in the production because old rich fucks don’t get it.

      Americans obviously can’t wrap their head around anyone other than an OORAH soldier or a cop who doesn’t do things by the book and is hated by the stupid chief being a protagonist.

        In many such cases, the veteran boot/badge becomes a faaaaaather and demonstrates that by vengeance-driven violence against the other that fridged his wife and/or kidnapped some daughter figure.

        “Taken” was a mistake. disgost
