Seems like the only gig she can get nowadays. But hey, whatever pays the bills. :ok_hand:

I think I saw this trailer when I went to see Frankenstein a few months ago? Anyway, I just remembered it for being so strikingly short and yet still really ominous with the little premise of the film it teases.

This looks pretty freaky even if there’s no scares in the teaser.

Well, it looks a bit closer to the cartoon than the mid-80s version at least…

Looks super-CGI.

He-Man is too scrawny.

Why Earth?

I bet he’s only He-Man at the end.

Looks dumb.

(I’m there for it)

At least the sword looks right, Cringer is present, Skeletor looks mostly accurate, and they got the pink shirt for Adam… I agree that the earth stuff is a little off, but it’s looking better than that Dolph Lundgren vehicle…so far anyway.

Although I thought Frankenstein was ham-fisted poorly-CGI’d garbage, it’s still great news that streaming movies are getting physical releases! KPDH is gonna be a buy for me.

I’m not much of a spoof film guy. The original Scary Movie holds a special place in my heart. It was my first introduction into the genre, in an all too early age.

This trailer made me chuckle.

Boy, they have a lot of new horror movie hits to spoof now, and it looks like they’re doing wiite a few in just one film!
Scream reboots, Megan, Smile, The Substance, Midsommar, Terrifier… wow.

I tried getting into the original Scary Movie a long while ago, I was mid-teens, couldn’t finish it, I just didn’t like how raunchy the humour was. (I specifically remember I turned it off when there was a joke about a gym coach with huge balls?? Or something weird and gross like that) :neutral_face::man_shrugging:

I’ve seen a lot of “articles” recently about this new Scary Movie film claiming that Gen Z (as if they are all some monolith) finds it offensive and I often see claims that this or that movie “couldn’t be made today”. I haven’t seen this movie and probably won’t, if I’m being honest, but is it really that bad if you’re a younger person?

I don’t personally believe that any movie is innately unwatchable or couldn’t be made today but I keep seeing claims like that.

I watched Dhurandhar last december - it was my best movie of 2025. After it came to Netflix, I watched it 4 times already. Now the second part has come to the theatres this week and seats are all booked (only front bad seats are there or not good theatres). Hence will try next week maybe.

For part 1, damn the director, actor, music, screenplay nailed it with multiple veteran actors. Each and every second in the movie is kept so well placed, and reviews says that part 2 has exceeded part 1 and hollywood level. It’s not a movie, it’s a festival here. I am sure this movie is going to be the best movie of 2026.

Here are the trailers, but for part 2, I was already hyped by the below song -

Trailers of part 1 and 2 (english subtitles available and part 1 is in Arabic, Portuguese and Spanish audio dub)

The movie shows real locations and real people as shown below. Note that it is a very bold movie in geopolitics and is banned in some countries. It’s 18+ age restriction because of Violence and Abusive words and not because of some other reason :zany_face: .

Lastly, the dance step of Rehman Dakait (Akshaye Khanna) flooded the internet and social media last year.
