Weapons (Zach Cregger, August 8, 2025) Movie • Page 25

I respect this

 

We were robbed of a nice lady and the tramp moment and what would have finally been some real homosexual representation on the big screen.

 

Logically it wouldn’t make sense but it could have been cool to see one or both of them fall asleep with a hot dog in between their fingers and then the hot dog falls on to a curtain and the curtain erupts in yellow mustard flames.

 

I assume by "sacrificed" you mean that Terry ate the 8th hot dog before putting the 4 cookies in its place and taking the tray from the kitchen to the living room.

 

Precisely.

 

It was his snackrifice.

 

I'm stealing this immediately when the moment calls for it. I may even share my dots pretzels with a coworker just for the setup.

 

he stole it don’t credit Zilla

 

rejected Weird Al Creed parody

Thought this was good but didn’t love it. Slightly above Barbarian for me which I liked but have never felt compelled to watch again whereas I’d probably watch this again.

 

I will say the energy of the last 20 minutes has me fully on board for his Resident Evil movie.

 

lol of course somebody already recreated it

 

Weapons, you say? By a “Zach” “Cregger”? Huh. No I haven’t heard of that, why do you ask?

 

Logically this made zero sense but I still loved it. When a film takes place in current day and fails to acknowledge the world we live in it takes me out of the film.

If 17 children went missing every Reddit investigator and news outlet would be posted up in that town for months. It would be a national story.

 

It’s a fairy tale

 

Austin Abrams gonna be a major star.

 

I am so glad I don’t view art through that lens.

 

Thinking like that while trying to watch a movie has to be exhausting. Half of the shit that happens in movies and tv shows wouldn’t happen because of cell phones. Half of every modern day movie would just be people texting each other.

 

I loved how Bottoms takes place in a world with seemingly no phones and no explanation was needed. I’m at the movies to get less reality.

 

I guess it’s always been an issue for me with horror, it’s become hard to suspend disbelief with modern horror in a world where we’re all connected.

probably why I prefer horror created before 2000ish…the idea of isolation was much more real than it is now.

still don’t understand how it wasn’t a national story in the film? the absence of press/media was clearly intentional but felt weird.

 

Who says it wasn’t?

 

This is the real horror.
