Looks like it could be fun.

Scream 2022 takes over the box office.



PS - personally, not a big fan of these.

So far it's pretty good. It's a bit of a slow burn, but it is engaging.

One of Denzel's best imo. Great supporting cast as well.

I'd say it's his best, the reunion with his son at the end was a good ending.

Recently re-watched the Mel Gibson/M Night movie Signs.

The movie is so much better with the alternative fan-created (but fits so well) theory of them being demons, not aliens.

Hmm, pretty cool concept. Did the fan do a YT video or something and do you have a link? Ya, just thinking about this definitely makes it MUCH better.

Rewatched this last night. Another good Denzel movie, but thought the first Magnificent Seven, with Yul Brynner and Steve McQueen was better. Have yet to see Seven Samurai, which The Magnificent Seven is based on.

It isn't ONE fan in particular, it's more like fans of the movie as a whole.

Tx, will be a good read. M Night is just misunderstood sometimes, just like The Village, which is a better film imho. Lots of ppl just didn't get it even in the whole backdrop of everything that was happening then.

I am on Team Signs as his best film.

95% of people will say Sixth Sense, but it is Signs for me.

Whoa, best film? That's giving it a lot, maybe I need to rewatch it but imho I dunno about that. I got soured re Sixth Sense since somebody told me the ending before I saw it. I think it's either that or Unbreakable for me.

Other movies with great endings:
Bridge over the river Kwai (oh my God, what have I done)
Excalibur
The Road warrior
Star Wars episode four
Rocky
Are there any I am missing?
Greatest ending for me was " The usual suspects".

Yep, honestly. For me it goes Signs, The Villiage, Lady in the Water, Sixth Sense.......

Sixth Sense is a too one-time twist for me. It is kind of like watching Fate of the Furious after watching it once, Dom goes rogue, once you know why a re-watch is boring.

The Village is a bit one-time twist, but the whole facade of the village is much better than, "oh he's dead".

Reading that reddit, supposedly M Night mentioned that it wasn't about aliens so maybe most ppl just weren't pay attention at all until some fans brought it up. Supposedly 'Jeff, Who lives at home' refers to that movie as well. Anyway, now I gotta watch that and rewatch Signs
