It's a top 5 list,
Evil Dead Rise is definitely in the top 10.

M3gan is currently getting rave reviews so it's an early contender.
My most anticipated are Evil Dead Rise, The Exorcist, and Salem Lot.
If Salem Lot is adapted close to the source, could be one of the scariest horrors of the year.

Some if it are true.... Not sure what to think if Super Pets but I feel that was a win for DJ last year. Especially when you look at how bad Disney animation fared in comparison to it. I'm surprised it hit $205mn. Not enough but did well to break even.

I'm very sure of that Cavill scenario when he went directly to Zaslav and bypassing everyone. That has been said by many scoopers even way before this Variety piece. Remember when I was telling y'all back then that it was actually Toby Emmerich that canned Cavill and doesn't like him. Walter couldn't do much cos all DC Films were under the parent studio control. See how, exactly when Toby leaves that's when Cavill shows up. If it wasn't for the merger I'm sure we won't even see a Cavill cameo.

Cavill was brought in last minute sef at an attempt of making 7Bucks production company being a major player in DC lore. They (DJ & Hiram Garcia) wanted to carve a major separate corridor of dc to themselves and Superman was a major part of it.

All these things no really concern me sha I just want dope movies that pay homage to the comic books.

I've been hearing good things about the old Salem's Lot. I might watch it before this reboot.
This year has a pack of rebooted horror movies as against last year's loads of originals.

I never really gave Megan a chance. And I refused to check the trailer sef thinking it's a cheap Chucky knock-off. I might just check it out cos of the reviews.

Anyways, WB is set to win big in the horror genre this year. They've got three with Nun 2, Evil Dead Rise and Salem's Lot. All IPs.
I feel WB not releasing a single horror movie last year heavily affected their revenue base. They could have easily cashed out from last year's largesse.

Bruh, this numbers is unreal... cheesy

Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by abduleez1(m): 7:32pm On Jan 05, 2023
Bruhhhhhh!!!

After watching this Evil Dead Rise trailer, mehn I'm blown away. It's officially my most anticipated horror movie.

M Night Syamalan's Cabin is a great spin on the genre. Prolly the most innovative idea from the genre this decade. And Dave Bautista sure looks to giving us another feast.

knives out 7.5/10

Glass onion 7/10

Knives out was better in all aspects, I enjoyed Glass onion's shenanigans but the plot was shiit

Forget the movies, they're all poor adaptations.
Just read the novel, it's so much better.
I've a feeling they will get it right this time.

Nothing wrong with reboot as long as you do it right.
Commercially, reboot is a safer bet than original ideas due to the fact that a fanbase has already been established.

The only exclusions I'll fault there are Dune 2 and Oppenheimer although I could see how fans wouldn't be very keen on seeing them.
F&F franchise is on its last legs.
Save for a few diehard DC fans, no ones gives a shit about The Flash....the allegations trailing Ezra doesn't help matters either.
I agree Fast X won't do as much as other recent Fast and Furious movies, but I still believe it will perform better (financially) than Mario and Ballad

Forget post COVID excuse, Avatar might make 3bn before July.

And yet they placed it number one among the most anticipated horror of 2023. A movie they might end up releasing in 2058

a F&F film is a guaranteed box office success esp with China in play.
But don't sleep on Mario Bros,
It has huge following and the success of the games proves that.
It wouldn't surprise me if it becomes one of the highest grossing films of the year.

As for Hunger Games prequel, WOM will decide if it has legs or not.

Salem's highly anticipated bruh.
I've been hearing of it since 2021. It was supposed to release last year sef. WB's money crunch must have push it all the way this year cos that film been finished since. Just release remaining.

Nah it doesn't work like that.
It won't gross beyond 2.5bn.
At best, it will gross 2.2bn, at worst 1.9bn.

Man could potentially be the only director with three $2bn movies.
