>when the world tries to tell you Hook is not just a bad Spielberg movie, but a bad movie in general
Have the critics ever been THIS wrong?
>>72043977
Yes. The BFG. Saw it tonight based on Armond's positive review and it was one of the best movies I saw this year.
>>72044012
Oh shit, really?

Oh God, he gave THAT a positive review? That movie was the worst movie I'd seen come from Spielberg in a long while. Boring giant walking around his house with stupid fart jokes. That breakfast scene was so out of place.
>>72044026
Yeah, it's not perfect, but it's a really beautiful and magical experience that faggot kids of today can't appreciate, thus it's basically bombing at the box office.

John Carpenters The Thing

I'll agree it was a little out of place, I enjoyed it regardless. The table made of grandfather clocks, that big plate of eggs and toast, it was all so visually comfy.
You're a crook, Captain Hook

I love this movie, but I hate that it's become a /tv/ meme. The contrarian in me wants to shit all over the film, but I can't, because I've liked it since before I ever even came to /tv/. I just want you guys to know that I hate you.
It is not a terrible movie by any means, but the people calling it great nowadays are speaking out of nostalgia.

You watch The Thing.
>It ain't Fukes starts playin
>>72044137
I feel the exact same way. Another movie like that I feel the same about is Predator 2.

Well, I do have an illegaly downloaded copy of the movie, does that make me a pirate?
>>72043977
Hoffman and Hoskins were the only good things about this movie.

Can we have a The Thing thread?
I don't think I've ever met a person who disliked Hook.

It's a great story of rediscovering your childhood innocence. Has some really fun scenes. Some great music. And really classic performances throughout. What more do you want us to say?
>>72044430
Idris Elba

Likewise. Even on repeated viewings with a cynical grown-ups eyes it still holds up.
>>72043977
Was it really critically panned or did it just not do well at the box office?
>>72044635
He athked!
>>72044609
I meant ALL FEMALE remake, shitlord
>>72044479
>Hook is a Somali pirate captain played by Idris Elba
I'd watch this
>>72044642
it was panned
film critics just weren't hooked
>>72044680
Replacing the neverland pirates with somalians sounds like such a Max Landis pitch
>>72044690
CARLOSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Hook is a classic. Easily the best family film ever. It was the blueprint for all modern adaptations. It would fit right at home between Maleficent and Jurassic World
>>72044690
But it got Close!

HOW LONG SINCE YOU LOOKED AT THOSE?
>>72043977
It's the one film I watched as a kid that made me go: "That's the career I want".
Unfortunately, there is only one captain Hook.
