What are your thoughts on Evil Dead Rise and The Dark Knight Rises?
Have not see Evil Dead Rises, but it can’t possibly be as good as Evil Dead 2.
The Dark Knight rises has some good individual monuments (the upside down plane scene, the football stadium, Ann Hathaway on the bike), but Nolan tried to do too much, the ending is too silly and Bane’s voice is ridiculous. Not dogshit, but also not great.
So the rule still applies I think
You’re correct, Evil Dead Rise is a bit of good fun but is not anywhere near the same league as Evil Dead 2, not even close. And I agree with your summary of Dark Knight Rises, although I’d put in a special mention for that scene where Bane asks Krennic from Andor whether he feels in control, that bit is great.
Yeah definitely. When it’s good it’s really fun, it just feels like Nolan thought he had to go even bigger after TDK, and so just threw 8 different plots at the wall.
I like this guys skating, good fun

P.S. the ‘DO Birth of the boneless’ bit I’m assuming is a GSD reference and I think (not sure) that the carpark with the banks to walls is the same spot that Blender does the ‘Macho taildrop’ on it G&S Footage.
Just checked, GSD who is credited with inventing the boneless and is a significant pioneer in zine culture is from CO Cincinnati, Ohio rather than DO Dayton, Ohio so maybe I’m wrong. Nice to imagine it though.
Proper wrangler would love to see him skate in the flesh.
