The Witches (Out Now)
 

Smithy 02-10-2020 02:47 PM

Omg it’s out in 3 weeks, I thought they’d dropped the trailer a ****ing year in advance at first

Ammi 02-10-2020 02:52 PM

...the trailer looks amazing...:love:..exterminate the brats and the rats ...

Kate! 02-10-2020 02:54 PM

oh wow!

Oh, I didn't know they actually already filmed it, I remember hearing about it a while ago but that's it, I had no clue it was filmed and ready to be released, it's a surprise that it's going straight to streaming though, there was a lot of hype around it so I thought they would have delayed it until next year.

It looks decent, Octavia shines like always and I think Anne Hathaway is pulling off a decent performance (although Anjelica Houston's shoes are tough to fill).

looks pretty good, but of course it does, it's a good book.

Not sure how it's a "reimagining" when the story looks exactly the same :laugh:

No it’s launching on streaming services

Oliver_W 05-11-2020 01:06 PM

eh it turned out to be fine. Not really as good as the old film, and they're both not as good as the book, but it's just fine haha

Looks rubbish

Oh I have Amazon, I forgot we got a years free subscription when we changed our broadband provider, I keep forgetting we have it though because it's fair ****e compared to Netflix :laugh:

Oliver_W 05-11-2020 05:11 PM

If you're a bit naughty, there are other ways to watch it ;)

14.99 is fine as it’s a movie that was going to the cinema so I wouldn’t mind that price tbh.

lol simmer down.

Not everything has to be seen through the lens of whether or not it's "representation", why not watch the original and cry about how it makes fun of people with long fingers, or women with no hair?

Marsh. 05-11-2020 07:14 PM

I can't watch Anne Hathaway. She's far too aware of herself. Very limited actress.

Ahw I liked her in Devil Wears Prada.

I wish she'd do some Shakespeare, her namesake used to do him :hehe:

She's fine when she's basically herself. But she's so out of her depth in character roles it makes me cringe tbh.

Tom4784 05-11-2020 09:00 PM

The whole limb difference controversy is stupid, The Grand High Witch isn't someone with a disability who is monstrous because of it, she's literally just meant to be a monster.

If they have a problem with that then are they going to mention alopecia next ? :notimpressed: :rolleyes: . It's a fictional story of witches. What exactly do people want them to look like ?? .

Children with limb differences will see this and think of themselves of monsters because of this offensive portrayal. It’s unacceptable and how did no one think about what they were doing when making the film.

Victor Crowley is deformed but I don’t see people being mad about that

Worst movie ever, looks cringey and ****
