Uh, why are they releasing a follow-up film to a TV show that aired in the early 90s?

Did anyone actually watch Absolutely Fabulous?

Because historically, the British don't know when to quit.

I used to watch it with my mum, pretended I didn't like it because I didn't wanna look guy, but I thought it was pretty funny. The chick who played Bubbles was hot asf

My mom has season 5 on DVD. Never watched it, isn't it about old women or something.

I'm still waiting for more Red Dwarf,

>>71796109
It's about middle-aged fashionistas trying to stay sexy and chic. It's not a thigh slapper but I remembering it being decent. It's not obnoxious or annoying like Miranda or Mrs. Browns Boys.

>>71796051

It's a staple of tv for women and faggots.

Why did they release a Dad's Army movie, that aired even longer ago?

It's basically because they realise a lot of the people who enjoyed the show first time round are still around and that Absolutely Fabulous was a hit comedy with women, particularly older women (the only time I ever saw it was because my Mam was watching it) and they clearly think it'll still have the same pull.

Films like this aren't high budget, and aren't expected to be blockbusters, they're just supposed to make a modest profit. Also what with it being based on a BBC license they knew they'd get lots of free advertising for it through BBC News running media stories on it.

Seems like a no brainer to me. The sort of people who would watch the Ab Fab movie aren't the sort of people who will care that it's getting poor reviews.

Red Dwarf movie when?
>>
>>71796204
Red Dwarf has gone on for too long. It's an amazing show but it's just ran out of ideas, and the actors are all getting too old.
>>
>>71796242
back to earth was pretty crap (although Blade runner inspired the show)
but the new season was pretty good, and they got rid of the awful "new Kochanski".
I still think it's one of the best shows ever.

>Movie adaptations of TV shows

Mark Kermode is right. They literally NEVER work
>>
netflix really wants me to watch the series for some reason
>>
>>71796515
The 3 Berserk OVA's are pretty good movie adaptations of a series, yes I know it's tech a manga, but the series was like 25 ep long.(if you like anime)
