Apparently Sean William Scott is the villain in this one. I hope if this series continues they keep using comedy actors for their creepy villains.

I genuinely loved the first movie. Kevin James was surprisingly creepy, and Lulu Wilson was a feral monster as Becky. It felt like a slasher origin story.

You mean how they took off in a crashed airliner from a dirt road while under gunfire that somehow never hit the plane in any meaningful way?

oh man, Primer. That movie is so confusing

It depends which version the streaming service gets the rights to

Actually, for the films I mention, I do own the special edition; I just wondered why the streamers never carry them.

Money.

These types of cuts of films are usually only available on physical media. To keep them rarer.

Your local library is likely to have the movies that you want on DVD for free.

I was surprised at 6.5 rating, too. That movie was a 5 at best on IMDb rankings. What was silly was Butler plays a veteran international pilot familiar with that route. In reality, experienced commercial pilots would have been aware of known hostile regions along their route and after being forced to land would have immediately considered they may be in some deep shit. That's not the case in this movie.

Slumdog millionaire

I liked how (at the end) they all jumped on the plane to fly a stone's throw away to land on the "safe island". That was hilarious.

Really? That’s surprising

Clearly none

It's the type of action movie that no one would actively seek out unless they're just a fan of the genre. Most of the shitty Liam Neeson movies have decent ratings for the same reason. Everyone that would dislike the movie knows that they're going to dislike it so they don't bother seeking it out.

The Last Starfighter. It is a good movie, not great, but good. I think it could benefit from updated special effects.

Ya know what, I didn't walk away from the first wanting a sequel but I'll fucking take it!

Laughing together with people is fun. You don’t have to do it that way but it’s a good option. Watching it by yourself is also a good option if that’s what you’re into

Why would it go that low? People seem to enjoy it, mostly. It did okay at the box-office (over 30 million in the US), and even reviews from critics were positive (it has a green Metascore). It has a 3/5 average on Letterboxd from over 30k ratings.

I enjoyed plane. It’s a typical dumb action movie that he always does. Good to have in in the background. Some funny over the top shit that wouldn’t ever Happen. It reminded me of a 90s action flick in a way. Solid 6/10

It's how Americans shield their eyes from the sun when they wear their ball caps backwards

Ralph Bakshi's Wizards could use a redo.

You write convincingly and with authority. I do not know if you know what you’re talking about, but I certainly believe that you do. Good job

I think all his films require more then one viewing. Although I loved both the Square and Triangle of Sadness, they are way too overlong and could have done with some tightening up.
