I mean, I've only seen one trailer. But aside from the terrible acting and the abysmal writing (though, to be fair, it is only a trailer) have we talked about how the fucking thing is called Blood Father?
The acting and writing are like the main reasons that trailer sells me. Weird.
Just stifled and obvious and hammy and cringy. I don't know. It's just a trailer. The movie might be fantastic. But it's a terrible trailer.
I wanted to like it but I didnt. We'll see though because Mel looks like a badass.

I think there were some great little touches in there, particularly Mel lamenting "They're gonna blame me for this" before he starts shooting. That's such a striking character moment.

Also, I fucking love Mel fucking Gibson.

Also Michael Parks.

And Diego Luna.

That "there gonna blame me for this" and then something about parol or whatever... that stuff hit me in a totally different way. Just gratuitous and awkward exposition. But again, it's a trailer. The moment might be successful when it's fully fleshed out in the actual film. But that one made me groan out loud when I watched the trailer. Both times.

Like, I can't watch reality singing shows, because they're terrible, but also because I just get so nervous for the people singing, especially if they aren't that great or have an off night. I get sympathy performance anxiety. That's the same feeling I got when that line happened.

I did like Michael Parks a lot in Red State, though.

I'm not sure if I want to ban Joey or give him a hug. Oh well I can't do either anyway.

Pretty much! A long time ago someone said 'Giz a hoon on your websites'. After having a bit of a titu - they turned all paru - and so we consolidated them all into this one website for all the stuff
